But then, there's that new scene where Kou gives Rin the clock and thanks her for being such a good support all this time, proving how much Kou has grown these years thanks to Rin and at that point she knew what was coming and Rin knew something was weird and yet she decided not to tell her ... ? is like going back to the same old Kou right after saying that she changed,

Well, if you believe an infamous fictitious M.D., people don't change. I'd say that changing takes time and effort and that, also, you can very well fall back to your previous habits really fast.

It's Rin who says Kou has changed, though. That said, perhaps this whole scene was already some kind of good bye on Kou's part, like "since I'm going to go far away, I want to say what I think of Rin before we can't talk to each other for a long time." I think she's just no ready to face hurting Rin or her own feelings, probably.

But yes, we'll just have to wait. Raws stuff I read on reddit, so yeah SPOILERY !!Probably Wrong!! although apparently in the manga there is no real interaction between Kou and Rin before the former's departure.. This is disappointing, we'll have to see how they deal with it in the anime; which seems to take a more emotional/darker turn.

Thats super disappointing, honestly I really jus want Rin to have a love interest thats not kou cause these recent chapters convinced me that she doesnt really deserve her at this point.

@Rosenakahara

Ok no wait, I went to double check and I can't find where I read this. So this is probably misinformation on my part, I apologise for that :s (at least I hope so). Edit : Found it once again, don't how much the poster could be trusted, but it's hypothetical until we read it anyway.

ON ANOTHER TOPIC ...Who else wish that Peco was a real game? I even want to draw the queen more than any of the "real" girls.

I do, the idea is really interesting. The setting, which is close to Alice in Wonderland, is really appealing and the exploration of the psyche of lonely little girl could be compelling. However, this looks like a lighter version of American McGee's Alice and, even more so, its (wonderful) sequel Alice Madness Returns.

It's also outright wrong, so don't put too much faith into it.

Anyway, we have few days to know her excuse but I'm feeling that it won't be enough.

The watch scene interaction is one of many changes that kind of breaks the timeline in the anime. It's presented as Kou trying to clean up some loose ends before leaving, yet she clearly doesn't even make the final decision to leave, much less check if what she wants to leave to do would be possible, until after talking with Nene.

Yeah the queen is so cute, even more than PECO herself.

No one's talked about her in forever.

The anime is up to date with what is translated and after next episode probably will be up to date with volume 5.

*Volume 6. Volume 5 is the spin-off.

Oh, whoops!

So... which came first? Super Mario Odyssey or Peco?

I was watching some footage and, as soon as Mario did the thing with his hat, Peco flashed in my mind.

Rin is REALLY a jerk

...

I hope she doesn't works at Ubi soft because she will learn NOTHING from making assasin's creed games over and over

that's the closest we'll get to a canonization of their relationship i guess

Shit, my bad. Yeah kou is a real jerk.

I wonder how the series will manage without her, I guess that now that the manga will end with aoba traveling into france or somewhere else to improve herself.

Out of curiosity, can someone post (or point to) the raw versions of the bonus pages? I'd appreciate it.

Damn
I don't know how to explain it, but this is done really well, the pages are filled with emotions
I teared up in the beginning and the ending of the chapter, doesn't help that I happened to be listening to a sad sounding song at the same time TT v TT
It was a balance of "this is sad but you can't help it, she's going her own way", and "this isn't the end, we'll all be together again, it'll be okay"
It was really bittersweet, my heart feels kinda heavy rn tbh
I look forward to the chapters about Kou's trip

Wonderfully said.

But what about Rin's goodbye hug, or better yet, kiss?

"A few years"

Guess it is a drop then. This series without Kou will get bland with all its drama.

Excuse me over here, i just want to cry in the corner while Kou and Rin dont even have a proper hug and the fact that the author is siding to the Aoba x Kou ship.

I dont really want to argue about how my ship ends but here is the thing:
Regardless of their conversation in chapter 63, the author tends to do something, idk, more emotional between Kou and Aoba rather than Kou and Rin.
I was so happy at ch 63 but then ch 64 scene with aoba kou is just more intense.

Idk man, i'm just really sad rn

This SS2 ending this is absolutely plastic memories feeling. This is so well made. I can hold my tear for now, but I think not in anime version tomorrow night.
Prepare to have some more tears everyone.

So Goodbye I guess. Maybe you want to continue this series again when she returns. (At some point in the future)

I think that's cus Aoba is like, the main main character, and Kou is part of her personal motivations and growth as a character
I don't really see it as shipping material, though you could if you want, but Aoba's emotional attachment to Kou is still really important tbh.There's no denying that Kou leaving hits Rin really hard, we all know that, (and ngl, I would have liked to see more moments between them for something like this), but we also know that for what Kou means to Aoba, this is especially significant to her development. Kou leaving isn't just to break hearts, but for plot purposes, it'll likely push Aoba to greater heights. So tbf, no matter what your/the author's ship is, this chapter/scene had to happen, simply for the sake of Aoba.
