It's nice to see someone acknowledge that sometimes you need an unscheduled break from the routine, just to recharge and get a grip on yourself. That whole 'you have the weekend, or you just came off summer break' doesn't change the fact stress can build up unexpectedly quickly, and just unexpected, period. That skip day will do Mitsuki a world of good, especially with the whole viral thing happening. Good job Uncle Joe.

This might be the longest I kept reading a series without enjoying it too much, it's kinda hard to drop if it's only 4 pages at a time but I realized I actually stopped caring about anything that happens in it long ago :P Not sure I can pinpoint why, I think it's partly the author's very chaotic presentation style and heavy reliance on "a character reacted in a funny way, please laugh".

Well, this story is designed to be realistic and relatable, so the focus is less on raw entertainment and more on your investment in the characters and their emotional journeys. The events themselves are less important that how the characters choose to process them

If you aren't relating enough to care about the characters, then you're probably going to have a boring time

School of Rock is a great movie though. Easily one of Jack Black's best movies.

I think people forget that sometimes things take a looong time to happen in people's lives, especially when you're a teenager. I remember being in love with my best friend for 2 or 3 years before acknowledging it, and a year more passed before confessing. It's pretty normal.

Uncle Joe really is a bro. Irresponsible and kinda dumb, but a bro all the same.

I mean, skipping a day of school isn't the end of the world, especially if you're feeling under the weather. He did the right thing imo.

Really liked this last chapter but more because it bring back a really good memory. I was not sad or anything, but going to school with my mom, she just said out of the blue "I don't want to go to work today, and you? want to go to the shopping with me?"; only time I skipped school without a reason and Idk, in that moment my mom was for me someone that would never do these things or even adults were "responsible", so it give me a vision or a lesson so to say; plus that made me to understand my mom better~

I thought it would be going in the direction of them forming a band or something, but I suppose this is possible as well.

Look at the title: “Catalyst.” That implies that he’s an agent for change, and not necessarily a bad one.

Maybe...maybe he wants to start a band with Mitsuki???

I sense that Aya and Mitsuki's relationship will undergo another change very very soon
More tension as the plot thread of Mitsuki's skill and talent as a musician becomes more and more well known
Really love how Arai Sumiko is developing this story
The way I see things, how the events are paced, especially in a 4 page format, is very well done
And it makes remembering what happened in the last chapter, whether it was the previous week or two weeks ago, easy rather than having to reread multiple chapters to recall the context

My maternal instincts kicked in full force the moment I saw this young guy pick up the notebook. Mitsuki must be protected! Mitsuki must not be hurt!!

I think if the author wanted to throw some more trouble at Mitsuki, they could've made it a direct result of her social media success. There was no need to have it all settle down before some rando showed up.

So yeah, he might look like trouble, but that's just the look you want in a rock band. I'm calling member #2.
