first, I want to thank the translator. although, I have a hard time understanding if it is wrong or right as I feel like the real author might not get the appreciation he deserves as his works spread far and high with the free version. of course, this increases the fame of the book and also helps those fans that cannot get the work through the right source. However, it creates a loss for the actual author. that said, I don't want to be misunderstood. you did not use the work to make a profit, you only help people get assess to the work while improving your profile. a symbiotic relationship. Nevertheless, even in this circumstance, I must appreciate your shared interest and also tenacity in translating the work. it is not easy.
Now that we are cleared on that, I want to say that this volume has a lot of emotion attached to it. especially that number five question. as usual, the author did not fail to keep portraying the character's ability and personality to the best of his capacity. truly magnificent.
my take on Anyanokuoji's decision. or perhaps, the author's decision. Sakura's part may have come to an end. also, the author was relentless in explaining the disheartening situation that society throws on us. just as death does not choose his next victim based on emotions, society is synonymous with death in that regard. And as such, innocent people like Sakura won't be spared just because she is innocent. the emotional intelligence that Anyanokuoji has is what allows him to see further than his classmates. he had already perceived that it is not every time that a villain will appear to take the blame. just like Yamada (Ike's friend). he was a villain and his disappearance was justified. Kushida could also disappear justifiably. However, society is not always that simple. there will be more to some decisions in life. perhaps, he understood that sakura should leave this time for her sake. this particular environment had never been favorable to her from the very beginning. coupled with her feelings to him. and in my opinion, things will keep getting tougher. Even when all these things are happening, Anyanokuoji hopes that Sakura grows and becomes stronger. of course, I don't know if I should say that he achieved those hopes or not.
the only problem was how people would view Anyanokuoji from then onward. of course, I know he probably does not care or would anticipate it. however, it would be interesting to see.
