[Meichiri]

Another heart-rending chapter. Thank you for updating. :')

 

[Tersione]

I don't know what's worse, receiving confirmation that your loved ones are dead, or being left with with uncertainty and false hope that they could come back home one day.

 

[kuma]

man, war make people suffer even if they are not on battlefield. their everyday life IS battlefield. they lost their loved one.

 

[Raskaro]

Every chapter manages to make you weep, fuck.

 

[SuperOniichan]

@Tersione From personal experience I can say that the latter is subjective. According to my mother, even if a message about death came, many people still believed that it was some kind of mistake (war is not the best place for bureaucracy) and the deceased will return. This is one of the reasons why after the war, books and films have always been popular for a long time about how the falsely declared dead returned and found out that his wife had already married another.

Another fine illustration for an excellent writing, damn.

 

[SuperOniichan]

@Nihilist1 There is no "writing" here, all these stories are real stories recorded from the words of these women.

 

[Edixo]

If you guys want feels from the other side of the front line, you should watch Stalingrad (1993).

 

[Nihilist1]

@SuperOniichan Yeah I know, I was referring to the author's interpretation that based the series on Svetlana's. But I see your point, maybe 'writing' is not the right word, should've used 'recount' instead.

Damn. Thanks for the chapter.

 

[arashiyamahon]

I'm crying fuck this chapter is so good, I'm a big sucker of dead people communicating with their loved ones scenario EVEN THOUGH they can't even talk, let alone coming back to life

 

[Kaiser92]

hope is one hell of a drug

 

[Gunlord500]

Thanks for the translations as always.

 

[Deathhappens]

War; the same story retold a thousand times, each as heart-wrenching as the last.
