Soredemo Ayumu wa Yosetekuru - Vol. 5 Ch. 62 - The 62nd move

[qwerter123]

damn, kinda bittersweet ngl

 

[Wind1]

There's always an odd sadness when you leave something, even when you never felt too attached in the first place. The knowledge that you will never return to that 'normal' is somewhat worrying. Then again, it's I've been up all night and it's 6am, so I'm probably just rambling.

 

[caitsith]

Feels like we've about reached the halfway point for this manga.

 

[EnderWin]

Wait the senpai is just a junior righ? Like not a senior

 

[TheMinester]

A few 365 chapters later

 

[daisaishi]

@EnderWin Senpai can be translated as senior, and houhai as junior. Senpai is one course ahead, which makes her a senior from the point of view of Tanaka.

 

[Oeni]

Damn, they will need to hurry if they want to be together for a bit

 

[ascriptmaster]

@EnderWin Hugh school is 3 years in Japan (10th to 12th grade), which means as a third-year it will be her last year of high school.

 

[CFF0079]

unless she moves to tokyo for college they can still play shogi at the old man's place.

 

[vinsegas]

What? Time is working? On this kind of manga? Thats a surprise.

 

[Reigard]

as long as you guys reach that endline i won't mind waiting

 

[DreamCarver]

@wind1 Every damn time I consider giving away stuff in my room, that feeling comes up. "What about the parts of my memory that this helped create? This thing is PART of ME. I read this book when I was ten years old and I remember it so fondly. If I read it again, will it still be good??"

Different from what you're describing, totally. But still.

Also dammit boy and girl y'all better at LEAST get half a year of lovey dovey flirting in there
None of this graduation promise bullshit
I want a goddamn christmas date and I want her to be small and cold and I want you to share a scarf with her aaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh

 

[lozg]

time is really running
well
surprised but this will push this endless romcom to an end

 

[gronkle]

Hardly subtle, yet still successfully understated. I do love these two characters.

 

[GoldenSpin]

kinda emotional about goodbye stuff, especially when get going to a new place, not really like can never meet or anything, just can't help but feeling a litter lonely. Senpai said that"Only have a more year of playing shogi with Ayumu like this",which absolutely connect me, what a pure emotion. Bless this manga and who have such a pure feeling in real life

 

[Tamerlane]

Imagine if it's graduation day, Ayumu still hasn't lost so he confesses anyway.


That would be a damn good moment of conflict between his principles and losing his love.

Plot twist:

Spoiler

she confesses to him

 

[tanukihat]

Wow the author has discovered the concept of time. Poor Takagi-san is trapped in a neverending existential nightmare of eternal middle school.

 

[Blupixil]

Damn, is it just me or is that qr code kawaii as fuck

 

[Wind1]

@DreamCarver I like your example. My solution is a box of little things from places I've been/been a part of. Tickets to museums, old pictures of people I knew, keychains that are very old etc. I only ever add to the box, and I never open it otherwise. There's a ton of stuff I could add to the box, but its size makes me think about each item, and whether its 'worth' a space in my 'memory'. Dunno if it makes sense; I think I'm rambling again lol.

 

[ftvdeadmark]

@tanukihat never have I heard such a brilliant way to express the infinite limbo of Takagi-san. Perfect!
