Thanks to you for continuing this series even with all the hardships that came with it! And for also mentioning me.
Since I discovered it, Merry has always held a really special place in my heart, and I share so many good memories about it, like talking passionately with my friends about it while reading it.
I would have loved to see Yumeji dream of meeting Merry again, so not seeing that hurt a bit... but I believe that's what'll happen someday.
Thanks for creating this amazing series, Ushiki.
P.S.
Oh, and since we never got to see what Merry had done that time, remember chapter 39 when they go to the park and she sees the Ai Ai umbrella Sana's draw in the wood?
That's what I always imagined she did.
What a coincidence, I read your comments just before submitting mine
@PlasticShark, though this is just my opinion and I don't think we ever got an official answer.
