Last Summer Vacation - Vol. 2 Ch. 6 - Drifter

One of my favorite Chapters of the series, took me a bit longer to do some of the panels justice but I am quite satisfied with how they look!
If anyone see something that needs to be fixed, please let me know!

On the medication that Urawa takes:

On the left: A parody of Myslee (マイスリー), very well known Japanese sleeping pills. They are also known as Zolpidem.
On the right: Another parody of what probably is an anxiolytic, called Depas (デパス) or etizolam.

Just a reminder that anxiolytics aren't the same as antidepressants, the former is more for short term relief and the latter is for long term use. I made jun call them antidepressants because it was the most natural thing to say, and in dialogue he used (抗うつ剤), which means antidepressants.
People confuse the two a lot, but it's good to know the difference of them!

Remember to support the Author!

Holy fucking plot twist 0_0

Her mom wanted to be the one to kill him and started beating the kid for killing him. Is it because she doesn't want her daughter to go to jail? As in she still cares about her kid in her own way. Or is she pissed that her daughter "stole" her kill?

This is rough man T_T

As always, a fantastic job. It's interesting how this story suddenly has actual stakes when the translation takes itself seriously

I theorize from what we got from this chapter and chapter 2, that Mizuki's mom told her daughter that Urawa sexually abused her in that paper as a way of retaliation when he didn't want to have sex with her anymore. (First because he didn't want to do that with her but also due of him having the recording already + his brother encouraging him not to see her anymore)
I don't think her mom wanted to kill him, but she did want to scare him and probably coerce him into doing it again.

It's a shame that Mizuki had to kill him, because he was probably gonna be fine. Yes, probably the rumors would destroy his reputation, and probably the police would have gotten involved. But he had a recording to defend himself with.

TL;DR: Mizuki's mom sucks.

It does make more sense if the mom wanted to ruin his life rather than kill him. But she was so evil that I think there is a real chance the mom wanted to kill him...

I wonder what the younger brother is going to do now that he knows the killer is actually another victim. I say victim because the kid never would have done it if she knew the truth. I'm also certain the younger brother wanted to kill his brother's abuser too. Not that he would do it, but that he can understand why she killed him.

Can't say I expected any of that.

well fuck, I knew she was reprehensible, but dang she really went for the worst parent award

heck at this point I'm willing to bet she wanted him dead for having the recording, and then just manipulated and gaslit her daughter
