I will miss this one. There will be an empty space where the joy I felt every update would be. There really never was a bad chapter. The plot was solid from start to finish. And the art. What more could I say about the art that I haven't said already? Gorgeous and detailed and so unique compared to manga with similar storylines. My only wish is that it could have lasted a little bit longer.

I'm not surprised that this story ends with the pairing that the spoilers are claiming. It makes sense, if you look at the ratio of chapters. Much more time is spent on the relationship between certain pairs of characters than others. At this point, I just hope that the relationship progression is done well and it doesn't have feelings or forgiveness happen for undeserved reasons.

I really wish we hadn't had that light-hearted, goofy opening to the season. It's really taking the impact out of all the dramatic stuff that's happening right now. Of course, there's novel spoilers and the type of story this is, so it was always safe to assume there would be a happy ending, but it feels different now that we've had in-story confirmation that everything will be alright. Maybe it's just me, but it feel harder to invest in anyone's feelings, knowing that the conflict will resolve to the point that they can have a silly shopping trip together, with no apparent consequences from what's going on right now.
All the sexual assault was, of course, terrible to read and it's terrible that it happened, but I am weirdly excited for all the angst when the ML realizes what "he's" done. They're just so sweet and caring towards each other when the ML is "normal." It's going to destroy him and I kind of can't wait to see it.
