Mistakes might've been made, but this chapter was not one of them. Loved the art, really dig the idea, please keep going, and thank you very much for the release.
It's been a long time since I genuinely cried while reading something. Great chapter.
Edit: Gotta love Mikochi for having such tact and sensibility. Really a good friend.
The lack of romance (at least to this point at vol. 2) isn't a reason to not give this one a chance, it's actually quite interesting. But I agree with mikegnesium, without any promises of getting the other 5 volumes, starting to read this is like setting up for disappointment.
