Great chapter! What a rollercoaster. 徳次 is such a nice character. It really is a pity if they mostly cut him out of the movie. Meanwhile poor 喜久雄 is all broken inside because of that asshole director :\ He’s now convinced he’s actually a terrible actor.
Just finished reading this chapter. It hurts me a lot, poor Kikuo! I hope this director will get what he deserves
Since it is not the end of the story, I’m sure Kikuo will recover, but what the hell.
I finished this section a few days ago too (and forgot to post, oops ) I felt the same way. It was really hard to read that section… so many unfair things happening to 喜久雄..
