I love Misaki. I love grandpa and Akari. I love how well they know both Hina and Rei. I love their planning the future, and Rei enjoying shogi. I just love this manga so much T-T
I think I sincerely like this spin-off more than the main series. Granted, that's probably in no small part due to the fact it's a manga, meaning we're not constantly rehashing events from the other characters' POVs in really boring ways like the OG LN loves to do. Plus the main cast doesn't...
I’m so happy to see Oofuri on my dash again! It’s a shame Oofuri-Baka has apparently disappeared, but I’m happy y’all have taken it over! Plus thinking!
The level of misunderstandings and shenanigans this series accomplishes never fails to impress me XD Hori going along with Mikoshiba despite realizing was too good lolol
Rather than them going to Rei for monetary assistance (which feels like the last thing the Kawamotos would do), I’m imagining the neighbors put the house on the market, and when the Kawamotos finally head over to buy it, Rei is already there just having purchased it after seeing an ad for it XD
@OsseinMarrow Personally that would be my least preferable outcome - it’s a special kind of cruelty to go out with a person when you not only don’t care for them romantically, but already hold romantic feelings for someone else on top of that. Nobody wants to feel like someone’s “second place,”...
@Justking14 Do NOT read this manga segment yet if you don’t want to get spoiled. This manga starts at the beginning of Part 3, while the anime only covers about half of Part 2 (the upcoming season 3 should wrap up Part 2), and the manga isn’t even caught up with the anime yet, let alone the end...
I have tears in my eyes from how sweet and heartwarming this chapter is!! I’m loving all of the parallels we’ve been getting recently - seeing the “cant get back down” escalator as a place of calm this chapter encapsulates so much in a single page. And Rei getting along with classmates, and...
Oh, Rei holding the warm food and likening it to a “small animal” is a callback to quite a long time ago, isn’t it? I remembered that line because I thought it was really neat. Feels like another showcase of how much he’s grown :’)
Gotta love Hina understanding Rei’s needs as well. So cute...
“The Alba of this world hasn’t experienced loss!”
> Thinks back to the end of Season 1, “Ross isn’t laughing,” his traveling (for how long was it, a whole year??) in an attempt to free his friend
Yeah sure buddy good luck with that plan.
Fran is literally so sweet and kind, I love him so much. And it’s nice to see Lutz working his hardest.
Yay, more pictures of Benno to add to my collection! <3
@J_the_Man I hope it plays out something like that, that would be a very nice way for the story to end. I want to see Rei in the place his dad always dreamed to be, and be happy to be there ^^
Seeing Rei being able to express himself, just emoting as much as he does, tugs at my heartstrings in the happiest way :')
If I can remember correctly, wasn't the "ticket" that takes him anywhere the "shogi train ticket" metaphor? If it's melting and disappearing from his hands, and he no...
