Mix_13 spoilers

Hmmm... This chapter is a little painful.

Spoilers below the cut!

-continuing from where mix_12 left off; Mafuyu is worried about music so he goes outside to the park, sits on a bench and tries to sing. But his inability to do so only adds to his worries.

-Ue comes running to see Mafuyu. (Mafuyu had sent him a text saying he’s lonely and wanted to see him.) Pale with worry, he yells at Mafuyu to reply faster to his texts, but Mafuyu’s delighted response upon seeing him, has him instantly mollified.

-Ue settles on the bench beside Mafuyu, who rests his head on Ue’s shoulder and breathes a sigh of relief.

-Feeling guilty about spending all his time recently with Hiiragi at band practice and neglecting Mafuyu, Ue invites Mafuyu to go practice at the studio, just the two of them but Mafuyu declines.

-Although Ue senses something’s off, he doesn’t dwell on it too much.

-Realizing it’s almost time for the last train, Ue hands him a ticket for Hiiragi’s concert and says, “I wan’t you to come.”

-Mafuyu’s expression changes and he pulls away from Ue- who is startled by this strange reaction and he finally realizes that Mafuyu has indeed been acting strange and cold when it came to music.

-Hastily announcing it’s time for the last train, Ue stands up to leave. Taken aback, Mafuyu only says, “huh?...oh...” and looks anxious.

-At home, Ue is depressed and overwhelmed by everything that happened. He worries about Mafuyu’s reaction earlier; which was like him rejecting music.

-Given has not had a practice session in 2 months. He wonders if Mafuyu doesn’t want to sing anymore which could lead to the band splitting up. And, if he messed up when he joined Hiiragi’s band to help him but he’d worked on THE song—simply because he wanted Mafuyu to listen to it.

-He thinks about Shizu and Hiiragi (and their whole situation) and the chapter ends with him thinking he can’t be like that.

- - - - end of spoilers - - - -

Yet another beautiful chapter from Kizu Natsuki sensei.

Quite a few heart breaking face expressions in this chapter... so, brace yourselves.

I’ve excluded a lot of details as always, because instead of losing your shit after reading some spoilers, y'all should just wait to read the chapter... And enjoy it then x.x

As for my thoughts... It’s very interesting how music has influenced relationships in this story:

Ugetsu gave up on Akihiko for music -> Akihiko kinda gave up on music once because of Ugetsu but fell in love with it again because of Haruki and the kids.

Shizu is doing music for and because of Hiiragi. -> Hiiragi is doing music to bind Shizu to him.

Uenoyama wants to do music WITH Mafuyu. And he can’t give up on either one.

Annnnnd,

Mafuyu... is afraid of being left out? He loves music but at the same time he’s scared of it. Being “excluded” once again has brought to surface some unpleasant memories. Soooo... to him, music IS the villain, it took Yuki from him, IS taking Ue away from him and he’s terrified.

Basically, Mafuyu is hurt because he doesn’t know Ue’s intentions.

And, Ue doesn’t know this is Mafuyu sulking because he’s lonely and feeling left out again.

...Yet they just keep missing each other and running away from one another smh.

Will they overcome this? Absolutely.

Because neither of them want to let go of the other.

Until next time~~ ^^

Hello, thanks for the updates! In jealousy, does it show what happens with Tatsuyuki's mother? What was the cause of her death?

Hello!! I actually don't know how she passed away! 😕 I feel like the Fandom is very limited, so I haven't found any summaries/ translations on the newer chapters. BUT IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW SHE PASSED, PLS LMK!!!

[kat-division]

Will you post the latest given chapter? I will patiently wait for it. Thank you so much for always doing it😭😭

Probably not! There hasn't been much interest in the new chapter, so I might not post it this time!

Mix_12 spoilers

-Shizu watches Hiiragi sleep as he thinks about everything that happened the previous night. He gently touches Hiiragi’s face.

-Hiiragi stirs awake and Shizu immediately confesses his love for Hiiragi, adding, “let me stay beside you till the day (I) die.”

-Hiiragi (wide awake now) yells at Shizu for always being grandoise and demands a more normal confession. But Shizu believes that was the most subtle way (for him) to express his feelings.

-During their band practice session later, Uenoyama notices a change in their (Shizu and Hiiragi’s) music.

-Uenoyama being Uenoyama, asks Hiiragi about it—who denies at first but then panicks when pressed for answers. He kicks Shizu and Ue out of the studio ordering them to go buy food.

-Shizu and Ue do as their told, although Uenoyama is pissed off by Hiiragi’s ridiculous behaviour. He asks Shizu why he’s in a band with Hiiragi, to which Shizu simply replies, “because I love* him.”

-Uenoyama is shocked and he asks Shizu if he’s dating Hiiragi. Ue worries when Shizu answers in the affirmative.

-Uenoyama questions Shizu on whether he feels anxious about their music being affected now that they’re pros.

-Shizu replies he’s confident that he takes music seriously—he’s doing it to stay beside Hiiragi which is why he doesn’t feel worried or conflicted. Shizu goes on to say he’s devoted to Hiiragi’s music and that their relationship is different from Ue and Mafuyu’s because he’s not “suffering” and that’s his strong point.

-Ue finds Shizu’s way of thinking strange, he’s bewildered but accepts it nonetheless. He feels a bit envious of Shizu because he’s not being indecisive.

[*love— Shizu uses the word “aishiteru” which is almost never used in real-life situations. Simply put, it’s much much more profound than the word commonly used: “suki” (which translates to like/love)

Japanese folk tend to be reserved about their feelings, so “aishiteru/aishiteiru” is cringe-worthy tbh and whenever it is used, if ever, it will be to express sincere and intense feelings.

You will see the word “aishiteru” being used in some anime/manga but it’s quite rare. For example... Gilbert tells Violet, “aishiteru”]

-Scene cuts to Mafuyu.

-In a dream, Yuki, Hiiragi and Shizu are leaving him behind. It then changes to Uenoyama, Hiiragi and Shizu. He wants to tell them to wait, but he couldn’t speak.

-He jolts awake, his heart racing because of the ominous dream. Checking the time, he figures he’d dozed off earlier.

-Suddenly, a realization strikes him: he can’t listen to music. Even though the ringing in his ears hadn’t stopped at all since he met Uenoyama.

-He also wonders how long it’s been since he sang, and the chapter closes with Mafuyu asking himself “how did I sing?”

- - - - - - - - - -

Uenoyama is dumber than a bag of rocks when it comes to romance but is ridiculously perceptive when it comes to anything related to music.

Sometimes I wish Mafuyu would just punch him in the face... with lots of love and force.

Still, Uenoyama is a gem of a person. You can’t help but adore him.

Also, I find it incredible that anyone could be devoted to someone (like Shizu is to Hiiragi) and the Universe also makes it so that the object of your affections reciprocates your feelings...

Lastly, Mafuyu... ;-;

*Sigh* let’s just not freak out and wait.

...He’ll be fine.

I am half-asleep while typing this, so I’ll fix any errors I find later. I’m gonna crash rn... But before I do, lemme say this- those of you who called it rape/dub con, I hope you had fun eating your words. PFFT :D yus im being petty lololol
