New year, old problems.
I was supposed to write this a month ago but it's just too easy to be lazy. So Megumi is really everywhere now. What are you planning, Maruto? Winter Comiket may be over but the fun certainly hasn't stopped. Missed out on a couple of things but got
most of what I had wanted and a bit
more. Apart from the pretty pictures, I suppose what I looked forward to the most were Maruto and Kurehito's comments in the new book. Jokes about
Izumi bumping into Tomoya in the school corridor and (with a 1 in 10,000,000 chance) ending up in
paizuri a highly compromising position aside, she and Michiru should be playing bigger roles in the upcoming volumes. Maruto's known love for married women and black tights appears to be alive and well, so perhaps Kurehito's wish for Eriri's
mother to get lots of screen time will be realized soon too. Not that it helped
Sayuka in any way, but that's probably an entirely different story altogether.
The part that got me the most was perhaps the theme of Volume 7 illustrations. Essentially, it's the
contrast between
this and
this, Megumi and Eriri's crying scenes, and lastly Megumi
buying a pair of glasses for Tomoya and Eriri
taking them away. That's nice and all except that upon close inspection it becomes apparent that Megumi and Eriri have exactly the
same hands. It gave me a good laugh, especially since there was
this as well. There's something going on here and I'm not sure if anyone is prepared to learn the truth.
