I ACTUALLY CRIED OVER THIS , (no surprise actually since I cry easily?) BUT MAAAN THIS HIT ME RIGHT IN THE FUCKING HEART. Like, plots with limited time and shit always gets to me, and this time it's a month and nothing more!! ╥﹏╥
THIS FUCKS ME UP SO BAD UGGHH I LOVE HOW THIS MAKES ME CRY SO MUCH BUT I JUST WANT THEM TO BE HAPPY GOSH

Now that I think about how Law did all that, just because he wants to control Jesse, it's all kind of just.. fucked up.
Well, that's what everything was from the start. To be honest both of them are just kind of broken... and if you look at it closely the cause of it was each other to themselves. Law was fucked up because of the pressure from his mother slash parents, and it was all for Jesse. Jesse was ruined, because he became too dependent on Law. He couldn't live without Law.
Just when Jesse wanted to try being "equal" with Law, though, Law had to just think about controlling Jesse and all those messed up things with Moritat.
At the end, though... What did Law really want to see? What kind of Jesse did he want to see after he involved him in Moritat and all that? I think what answers that is when Law is seen looking at the recorded film from long ago... Maybe he wanted to see that kind of Jesse again. (Idk it doesn't quite fit... since from the beginning they weren't equal. Maybe because Law just felt like Jesse was different before??) I could be very mistaken about this tho hh;;
That ending. Um. I just hope they will be happy (?

So I finished reading this yesterday, and I re-readed It on the same day.
The story is hard to piece together when you don't read it consecutively, I guess. (Though tbh even when I read it all in one go I just got the gist of everything)
For me, it was quite... the unsatisfactory ending, but it is one that leaves it up to the reader to wonder what will happen after.
I mean we properly got to know what Law's reason was, right? Though I don't fully understand it... Welp, I think I need to reread the last chapter.
Side comment I think the story will be easier to piece together if it was in novel form. Ofc, the drawings are really pretty but sometimes it distracts me when I try to really understand the plot lol
I will comment longer on this later, because I have to go to school lol XD

Everyone is confused and so am I but someone in myreadingmanga did the explaining!! I'm useless as a translator I'm sorry ww I was just as confused as y'all

Omg... I never expected you guys' reactions to be like this. Like wow, I never gave much thought nor did I try thinking of a deeper meaning to the stalker.. Or maybe I didn't think of it enough. uhh..
Did I do something wrong with the translations? ;; Like, how did you guys think that Ryouji-senpai was dating the stalker..??
"From then on, we started going out", was referring to when he and Motoki went out, if that caused any misunderstandings!;;
Because as far as I can see, the stalker wasn't really that deeply involved with senpai (except for some assault, perhaps... That's the closest thing I can think of, because the scene that senpai was thinking "Disgusting", could be when he was remembering the time when the stalker assaulted him..)
I really think it's a flaw in my translations... ;A; I am so sorry, it must've been so confusing... I'm really, really sorry ╥﹏╥
(Also a bit more of a clear-up, the narration in the part where they're by the coast, is probably by Motoki. Because he didn't expect to see senpai again, he could have thought that something had changed. But maybe somehow he also thinks that he didn't want anything to change. "Doubting", because he was really confused about what senpai told him, "and wishing", because he wanted to see senpai again. )
Also, I thought it was cute in the end because, well. It shows the possibility of their future together, and the chance for Senpai to really tell Motoki everything! (Because I think one thing he's hiding is the fact that he was assaulted.) I also think that maybe Ryouji is hiding that he does remember some parts of the past... Well, that's just my speculation though!
What do you guys think now? ;A;) ...Meanwhile I'll just go and translate the extra chapter...

I'm not thinking dating. I'm thinking more kidnapped and held prisoner by his stalker and thus raped repeatedly sort of situation.
There's way too many sketchy things going on for this to just be a normal breakup. And the whole phone call situations? And the way the bestie is trying to play matchmaker? Not to mention how I doubt he really has amnesia and is just faking it?
It's really weird.

Make that three in favor...no way is "senpai" really an amnesiac ( ̄∇ ̄")

Ahh that makes much more sense...! I think I agree with this :0 I'm so dumb aaaaa
btw, someone also elaborated more about it..!

Yeah.
As I was reading this chapter I had eerie flashbacks to stories of kids held captive by their kidnappers and the ways in which they were cut off from all contact, sometimes not even knowing the date, and how after time some of them had access to phones or the internet or the outside world.
And if this IS what happened. Why didn't the mangaka go for it? Announce it? Make it explicit instead of implicit?
That's another reason why I am so let down by this. Because it gives the impression that senpai LEFT everyone to go have a secret affair with this other guy when really he is a victim of long-term confinement, rape, stockholm syndrome, etc.
I also don't understand why the cops and shrinks aren't involved. Did he just lie? To hide his shame? That's fucked up and will NOT help in the long-term especially since it seems nothing was done to his stalker and he's going back to work at the place he picked up the stalker.
When that one woman from California with her two kids escaped because of that woman cops' sense of something being wrong happened she was isolated for months with a specialist and her family to help her cope. No tv interviews, no public appearances, nothing.
She needed intense therapy for herself and her daughters because her kidnapper and rapist was her daughters' father as well. They also needed to repair the broken bonds between her and her family because she's been missing for decades and thought dead.
So unless senpai actually escaped a long time ago and he and his friend concocted this story after they were ready to try to fix the relationship (which is fucked up and not recommended because hey PTS flashbacks happen)...then this is just a failure of what could've been a beautiful and compelling story.
It's a writers' cop-out due to unable to commit to the undertaking of the story.
I can't believe I'm already updated?? I stopped reading last year and caught up now... Gosh I can't wait for the next chapters
