I first saw the anime long ago. I cried on this scene and many others. I recently decided to rewatch, thinking to myself that I wouldn’t cry anymore. I was wrong, I cried again.
I finally decided to read the manga. Many moments that made me cry on the anime didn’t make me cry here, but this chapter made me cry like a lil kid again, for the 3rd time.
That moment where Touko says that the crow must be so beautiful, shining so brightly that’s hard to see, what a powerful moment.
