well as soon as i saw the art i knew i was in some good and deep shit anw i read some of her works you can see me commenting there, knowing her stories i should’ve expected the ending.
For starters if anyone of you is wondering Sakura Miki is the one who dies in the first chapter with the long hair who is also the author of Utsubora with an alias Aki Fujino. They refer to her as “Aki” not because the author wanted her to be seen as Akiyama Fujiko but because the two of them, the “twins” are referred to as “Aki” which is the author that’s why it was so confusing (if u want to remember and not lose track of who is who try not to remember them using hair lengths bc at some point they switched and cut their hair/grew it)
Let’s refer the one who died Aki and the other one Akiyama. In ch. 9 we see Aki talking about her sneaking into the party w/ Mizorogi with Akiyama who hasn’t had the plastic surgery yet, and in ch. 13 you see they look identical the one with the short hair is Aki (Miki) the other one Akiyama who just took off the bandages from the surgery. Aki must have cut her hair and grew it back bc it makes no sense for her to die w long hair in the first chapters, Aki then gives the name Aki Fujino to Akiyama which then she replied with thanks Sakura, so we can confirm that im kinda right. But im baffled still with the hair but lets move on.
we all know the girls like Mizorogi well he is a fine man but the only thing he loves is his works, if he cant write, then he might as well die. That was his belief. Aki knowing this finally understood and went ahead to kill herself and calling Mizorogi before she jumped, so she could be in on his works, so she could be loved. The dialogue where she was confessing her love to Mizorogi, it was said in first POV, this really shows how the author doesn’t really like explaining but it’s so subtle that it makes you wonder what’s more to it and the next chapter it narrates with third POV which i will assume that it is Mizorogi’s real thoughts or that could be a piece of Utsubora he was writing. Nonetheless its a masterpiece. Akiyama’s intentions on killing herself i will not explain here bc i really dont understand it as much. Also the baby, in my mind i really think its Tsuji bc he took her virginity and its somewhat implied that Mizorogi is impotent as Aki was giving him a blowjob which he did not consent i believe (?) or it could be that he just couldn’t get it up, and we see them having sex with Akiyama in ch. 13 so there’s actually no way its him while he couldn’t be erect with Aki.
Anyhow its a beautiful tragedy, i couldn’t praise the art more i was already enticed by it in her work in inheritance of aroma (pls read it its similar to utsubora
