I really loved the ending of the last chapter with the add on of this chapter giving Nakamura extra development. I see people in the comments hating on it but it’s opposite for me.

I’m glad this didn’t end like Punpun. When I first read this manga the comments were making comparisons and it kind of scared me. Not every dark manga needs a tragic ending due to the protagonist being unable to conquer his demons.

In conclusion this is easily one of my favorite mangas ever I’m definitely gonna reread it even though I prefer part 2 significantly over part 1.

This was good, literally could not stop myself reading

i wish we got more of nakamura's story after everything what happened but regardless... im Satisfied.

I'm just glad Kasuga made it out alive and more importantly... Happy.

Thank you @Misotoro and @Thuglas for the great summarizing of the story.

What a great read it was, now after reading the last chapter it was very clear that Nakamura had very depressed childhood and seeing Kasuga being "like her" helped to not kill herself earlier on as the darkness consumed her.
Kasuga was her only person who was "twisted" like her.
Was her connection to him romantic, a little bit, but more like a transference love where he "saved her", she didn't deserve what Saeki put her through with jealousy driven acts.

Edit: Felt a bit of connection with Nakamura, due to bullying throughout grade school and not so good parenting also seen the world in different ways. Had a chance to meet someone who shared the same vibes in the last years of grade school, because of her being a target of prejudice and suffering from hapephonia, we both healed with our relationship lasting nearly 9 years, but dude to arranged marriage ending in her suicide.

It may sound bad but it's good that Nakamura didn't found someone else eventually and only faintly remembered the good times spent with Kasuga, it's very hard to be with someone broken like her and also sympathize how she is suffering.

10/10

What a ride! I was expecting a bad ending. I'm glad I was wrong!

During the first arc, I thought it was impossible for any of the characters to find redemption. They were all sick and needed professional help

The second arc was the peak. I'm not sure how Nakamura changed, but she seems better somehow. Everyone gets a happy ending. Yay!
