You should care if it is a cultural thing, since it makes sense why you can’t just avoid issues that might happen at work even when you yourself are on vacation.

Just as in real life, it is not necessarily easy to just switch jobs, and depending on your position at the company you can’t go incognito during vacations. Also in Japan it is quite common for seniors to take responsibility if a junior employee makes mistakes.
Like i said i dont care if it is a cultural thing, all families have their fair share of problems regardless of culture, and japan having high rate of divorces, a work ethics that literally overwork people to the grave only adds to the point that using common sense and simple logic to realize when work is harming your life and your familie`s is perfectly possible.

culture is not an excuse, it is an avoidable issue, it is not easy? then what weights more your family or the inconvenience of finding a better job?

i know i am oversimplifying some points and that everybody has circumstances but what bothers me is that the author makes this scenario when 2 divorced adults fall again in the work over family trope and neither is capaple of self awareness but their children are the ones justifying their choices.

Bro i have seen this several times and it feels like authors are like lowkey indoctrinating readers into thinking that is just the way it is and is nobodys fault.

Plot twist, this is just the author trying to force the oyakodon ending that nobody asked for!

Jokes aside, probably some people did ask for such an ending tho...

NGL this chapter was hands down my favorite in this arc so far. Gave some really great interactions between the family. And some actual serious character moments and development. The interactions with Miyuki asking about Ryouta's taste in women with Akira pinching him were simply wonderful, building up to Akira getting all blushy like that just really fulfilled my Akira-fanboy heart, and it was nice seeing Ryouta actually be more affectionate and kind to Akira again.

Seeing Taichi absolutely FUMBLE the bag on the family dinner definitely was frustrating even if i could understand where he's coming from to an EXTENT. But come on dude, you managed to bag a GOOD MARRIAGE FOR ONCE, don't fumble the ACTUAL GOOD WIFE.

And man did that Akira backstory and insight into her mother's first divorce hit HARD, it's such a realistic predicament for many people i'm sure. And it's so heartwarming how quickly both Akira and Ryouta are to devote their trip to trying and help Taichi from fumbling Miyuki like Takeru did. (Akira the twinkling ray of hope is fitting cause I FUCKING LOVE THIS GIRL AAAGH)

Ahem
What's this? are we getting shades of character growth and resolve from Ryouta ABOUT how much he cares about Akira and wants to be there for her? THIS WHOLE ARC WASN'T FOR NOTHING??? Let's GO Ryouta redeeming himself! Here's hoping all this character growth doesn't up and vanish once the next arc comes....

Can someone explain to me the Akira/Stars/Sun wordplay?
I thought Akira was 明 Sun+Moon, but on page 26 she says to just write Sun three times, so would it be 日日日 ?
