Plot twist: the necklace is just a gift to go along with the invitation and it's only a coincidence that it's the same as the elf's (they're mass produced). Elf girl got away just fine.
Ah yes, after not being in the same room for about a month, of course they can play an ensemble perfectly.
Also, was there a particular reason why Ageha had to keep the fact that she was in the USA a secret?
For someone who claims to love books, she sure doesn't know much about books.
And right after her mother tells her about how they have to prepare for winter, instead of using that avocado oil for cooking, heating or light, what this impoverished household needs is shampoo!
This feels in line with how gods have typically been depicted or interpreted. Classical gods of Greek and Roman mythology were always partial to their own kin or followers and would smite others when favors came from them. The term "favored people" also show up from time to time in the holy...

And I rather it remain in the 1800s where it belongs
anyways, it's not something that I'm going to get into so I'll just say that people may want to stop for a second and think for a bit before posting something that goes, more or less, "so slavery isn't THAT bad".

It is in the other nobles' best interests to let the MC's household go under. They were probably only kept around so that money could be leeched off of them but now that that's gone, they can be disposed of.
MC is obviously naive but there's nothing she could have done. It doesn't matter what...
Not to be too contrarian but I really did not care at all for how she died. Her relationship with her mother seemed to have no bearing on the story based on the synopsis so it feels cheap to focus on it here. Spoilers for chapter 2:
All this chapter is for, is to get cheap melodrama at the...
Since none of the Achiga players are in the individual nationals, it makes sense for their power level to peak here and I wouldn't be surprised if they won the finals. Ritz needs to save some stuff for the Individuals when she gets to them at the turn of the century.
I don't think the story wants readers to view Ryan as sympathetic, but rather as a pathetic husk of a human. A kind of worse-case future that Eque might have become had she gone down a path of irresponsibility and selfishness to escape her duties and her station.
I mean, I don't think (or...
I think that's the point. Rei's whole schtick is his feelings of guilt, especially for things that are really out of his control. I can only imagine this arc ending with Tanaka helping him tackle this a bit.
