I’m reading along
I’m still reading the book but I haven’t reached this chapter yet
So, p39, bottom right panel, one of them is seating in front of the guardrail, the other behind but they are on the same plane. Like a freaking Esher painting.
If you look at the previous page, there’s enough space in front of the guard rail for Akari to sit comfortably. When she leant back to greet Alicia, she sat up again behind the guard rail.
No, the big issue is the fact that it disappears in the second panel of 39.
Thanks for noticing! I would have completely missed it. (I felt it was a bit strange that the author had her singing for so long, actually…)
Yeah, I was wondering. Or did they just sleep there?
P. 37: Boi, 灯里’s right arm is buffed. I guess she hasn’t been neglecting training…
My own question:
p 64 So… that means Aria社長 has supernatural powers, then? Or are we really supposed to believe it was just a coincidence that the power comes back as he extends his paw towards it?
I found this chapter fairly straightforward too, and I particularly enjoyed the idea of looking for the joy in the ordinary aspects of the season, the way Akari chose which direction to follow, and the story on pp61-62.
pp66-67 - my brain did rebel fairly strongly against the idea of random cat generated electrical activity, but the glow in the dark sakura is soooo beautiful!
Wow, totally did not catch that. For some reason, I thought maybe it was an actual song, so I googled it and found out that a recording of this song exists xD
I really liked the story on pg61-62 as well Very heartwarming. I’d love to know where Alicia was actually trying to take Akari xD I’m definitely not convinced it would have been better than where they ended up though :3 That whole area looked so pretty. I love photos of abandoned places, and the abandoned train car + sakura?
I had to re-read that whole traveller who loses sight of the way story a few times to get the meaning right, but I think I worked it out eventually.
The old train car reminds me of the scenic cherry blossom tours on old trains you see in tourist information like these
Has anyone been on such a train trip?
Kinda think the idea that the power lines which have been sitting unused for literally decades are waiting only the flick of a switch to become active again is a little bit implausible. And for that matter, a switch at the far end of the line.
That, and he’s still some distance away from the transformer.
Smart cats can MacGyver up an electrical connection, right?
What’s more confusing is that in this old abandoned area that the poles and wires in disrepair still have electricity running through them?
But don’t let overthinking get in the way of the story.
