WYALS CH. 41 — AKI'S INTROSPECTION
Seeing Aki so confused and overwhelmed by everything that happened recently is so heartbreaking🥺 You can see that she was really sincere about reconciling...
Only that, she realized it was just going to hurt Shiho.
(BUT TIMEOUT! WTHHH THE CHOICE OF WORDS IS SO 🤌🤌 LIKE "I STILL WANT TO BE WITH HER" OMGGGG MY STOMACH JUST DID A TRIPLE SOMERSAULT HAHA😂)
This monologue is really insightful. Although she's very overwhelmed and understandably confused by all that she has recently learned, Aki is more relieved that Shiho didn't quit because she hated her—or thought less of their time in the band—but because of something that was both out of their control, and that really, even just a little, put her mind and heart at ease knowing that Shiho lied about every insult she spat out in spite (although seriously, that was low, Shiho😭)
She's been so caught up with everything about the battle of the bands that she hadn't time to wallow in her heartbreak—leaving her with a very open question for herself. She knows that she liked Yori even shortly after our main couple got together and of course, unrequited love hurts (especially when the other party doesn't even know). But what about now?
She doesn't know, but she sure does know that she wants Yori and Himari to be happy😭
THIS IS WHY AKI IS BEST GIRL FOR REAL!
As much as I am praying so hard for AkiShiho to be endgame, there's a very obvious contrast between the two of them and my girl Aki clearly is a walking ✨green flag✨
She didn't blame anyone else for the situation that she was put in (hiding her unrequited feelings for Yori). Of course, there might have been many time that she thought of confessing, but she ultimately decided against it—perhaps knowing Yori wouldn't like her the same way she does, and we know she got upset with Himari at one point. BUT what did she do after? She immediately regretted for having acted the way she did and gave them her full support, acting as a reliable wingman for them.
There's a lot going on for Aki in this chapter, and her realization that she doesn't like Yori romantically anymore seems to be the best among them (I'm just assuming this, but it did look like that even though she didn't say it verbatim).
WYALS CH. 41 - SCHOOL FESTIVAL ARC CLIMAX
SSGIRLS looks so cool😭 really a mix of different personalities in there lol
Formal announcement that anime broadcasting starts next year (feels too far away... but we'll get there before we know it!)
So excited to see the conclusion to Aki and Shiho's story🥺 I hope they'll both be happy😭
On the other hand, I hope this doesn't mean the story is ending soon😭 I still want to see and explore the other characters' relationships! (I'm looking at you, KaoMari👀, Miki and her unnamed senpai, HajiMomo)
SHIHO × AKI Parallel Chapter Covers
Chapter Covers of 35 and 40🥹
"The depths of her heart that she doesn't want unlocked"
VS.
"To the truth that was told to me..."
I wonder if it is significant that Aki's chapter cover is dominated by a dark color while Shiho's isn't?
It's kinda interesting to see because for Shiho who was hiding her feelings, that was what the cover symbolized. She REALLY didn't want anyone to know. However, in the update, it's as if she finally was "free" of all the baggage she was holding onto. Although she said that winning didn't matter anymore, she felt "refreshed".
On the other hand, Aki knowing the truth was supposed to free her from the fog of all the questions and unresolved conflict. However, as we can see, Aki on the cover is the one behind the lock this time. Knowing the truth did the opposite for her. I think she's the one whose heart is going to be withdrawn this time. She's probably going to blame herself for how their relationship ended.
It's really so refreshing to see how the truth "freed" and "shackled" them each.
What do you think will happen in the future?
Their relationship ends there, nothing more to say.
One of them reaches out to reconcile their friendship, no romantic development.
Aki gets closure from Yori and properly faces Shiho's feelings
