Love her or hate her, Miho can't stop being Miho. And while I can dream of a more intimate heart-to-heart between Satsuki and Akira, I'm satisfied every time she loses it thinking of losing Akira. Also glad Akira's feeling guilty and committed to being there for Satsuki more, even if it wasn't her fault. Not that I have a favorite ship in this or anything.

I debated putting a reference to Takahashi Kazuki in the credits, but it didn't feel right directly connecting it to the chapter. Still, he's going to be on a lot of people's minds with how the specifics of his death were only announced last week.

Takahashi Kazuki, the mangaka behind Yu-Gi-Oh!, died rescuing people from a rip current in July. Considering the beach trip has been set up since May's ch46 and a rip current is quick and easy to use for a death in a SoL chapter, I'd believe it's just coincidence and Ryouko had it in mind all along. Too bad this is probably the best we can hope for this volume as far as lighthearted SoL goes.

Also the dark heroine thing comes from the publisher themselves.

I thought Komachi would be a bigger character, but she pretty much disappeared

Beach chapter aside, I'm truly disappointed reading the comments and receptions regarding the villain back stories, way too many shallow opinions and almost no one here gets its point.

Do you people watch Joker and expect it to be a backstory to make you feel bad, sympathize with or to justify the villain actions ?? ABSOLUTELY NOT, that's not the point at all. This kind of Joker-like backstory is only meant to GIVE A REASON behind the villain actions, how they become who they are, and show what lead them to the twisted and irredeemable path they're on now, you are NOT supposed to understand or sympathize with them, cuz they're now bad people, but with a history, and once they break they can't go back, essentially like Joker.

Also, the backstory is very important because it prevents them from being like Dio, aka a garbage one-dimensional bad guy that only exists for the sake of being evil.

I'm glad someone else recognizes the shitness of Dio

It seems we will soon be getting Satsuki’s mother backstory. Because we’ve known for a long time already that her mom died in front of her from the flashbacks and she blames herself for this.

What's this adorable creature?

The actual villain of this arc

That was a great chapter. The most soothing part of this manga is when Akira's affection leads her to shout at Satsuki.

And 4 foreshadowing panels for Shiina and Seo. It looked like Shiina's lie detector pinged on Seo deflecting from manipulating Michinaga. Does Seo still have the gentler personality if she recalls participating in attempted murder, or is something else up with her? (She did take too long inflating the floaty before Shiina nearly drowned... not so adorable now is it?) How low will Shiina go? More death flags are always nice.

Ryouko-sensei, if Akira were this perfect, why should you have Komachi as the true heroine?

Komachi was an early-chapter red herring. Akira x Satsuki is the real endgame here, but Komachi will be the final victim-villain of the whole story. In my opinion.

Our hero Akira is here to comfort our poor Satsuki. Best legit friendship ever (which might turn into love idk).

I liked Akira's mother telling her to look after Satsuki, she ships it

I think that this might be one of the most important panels for Satsuki's character so far, many people nowadays seem to lack empathy with others and because of that characters like her seem very difficult to be made nowadays, I think that realistic characters who are humanized and can fail are a lot more relatable than an edgy protagonist who is bloodthirsty and seeks revenge

All the President's victims so far were nothing more than people with issues that needed to be dealt with and could have a chance to change, Miho being the greatest proof of this, a slightly cruel bully who was saved by Satsuki and managed to change and become her friend

While I agree that the panel you mention is an excellent illustration of her character, I'd like to add her hugging Akira as a key point in her character development, as this is (as far as I can tell) the first time she has willingly shown her vulnerability to another person.

I think this sets up an interesting situation for Akira too. Satsuki won't want Akira's father to die no matter what, so what will Akira do if push comes to shove and he tries to kill her and her mother?

Didn't Seo lose her memory? I guess the people who said she was faking it was right, because I doubt she'd know about Michinaga otherwise.

It's possible Miho told her about it, but my money's always been on her faking it to catch her off guard. Although it would be really interesting if Miho noticed and was playing along.

That question is pretty obvious, actually: Satsuki will try to save everyone. And by "saving", I mean, "keeping them alive", because others' survival is the only thing Satsuki has been focused on until now, completely ignoring the underlying factors that lead to their deaths (like Miho being a selfish bitch, the StuCo being a pair of lunatics who should be locked up, and Akira's dad being an abusive drunkard who needed treatment ten years ago).
