i didnt even read every single chapter but i still get why and how he's a bastard. dude manipulated them. egged them on to hate them. even the victims(nino) said that he "didnt do anything, he only spoke about ai" and thats basically it.
This chapter litterally made me remember a toxic friend i had. he reminds me of that friend. they kept telling me about a person about what they did. and it really ruined me. they know i was mad at them and that person would feul the fire and make me remember it. thats what kamiki is doing. he kept egging them to break. the lowest of the low. a horrible bastard manipulator.
I don’t know why others say it fumbled or the story went more worse or confusing. You guys are just so focused on the incest like antis think about the ship than the shippers themselves.
I think the plot didn’t went bad, the incest was like 5% of the plot and that 5% judged the entire story. What about mushoku tensei where the MC just sniffed his own mother’s panties and 50% MC is just horny for women yet the plot was so god tier for others
Kamiki has always been the antagonist. Kamiki and Aqua explained it themselves. Back at their first confrontation, Kamiki said he didn’t expect that psycho killed Ai which this latest chapter confirmed it that Kamiki may have not done the killings, HE manipulated others into killing Ai because he knows they’re all mentally conditions and obsessed with Ai. That in itself is him worse than a murderer because he orchestrated everything.
The slight transition to being peaceful was needed that to climax the story and that final is Ruby continuing her idol career, surpassing Ai, Kana leaving and to be an actress and Aqua confronting Kamiki who acted he regretted his actions during their first confrontation. Maybe he did or he didn’t but Kamiki is that kind of person who says “what’s done is done” he’s mentally detached from reality that’s why he feels no remorse towards his victims
