I feel like 99% of Azuma's problems relate to his family and their ideals of perfectionism. She expects too much from Azuma, and she shows it in the way she acts so differently towards his older brother. Kuze is also super manipulative and she picked the right person to manipulate too.
Also, Freud would say that Azuma has an oedipus complex.

Yup, Junya's definitely suspicious.

Life has no meaning,
but that doesn't mean
we shouldn't live it

All of them. All of them are so down bad.

Shizuka with nothing but Chappy.
Azuma with nothing but Shizuka.
Marina with nothing but her mother.

And all of these just sent their lives into so much turmoil. Interesting how weak-minded children are. This manga is very good at explaining that.

Azuma's mom complex must've made her giving up on him hit crazy hard on the kid. The simping for Shizuka makes a lot more sense now.

Seriously though, I can't imagine being the best in class and still not being good enough in the end.

Surely a mother that is capable enough to raise two of the best performing students in the entire Hokkaido prefecture would be smart enough to realize that raising two children the same way is obviously not going to lead to two identical children.

like most, smart people are often idiots when it comes to things outside their area of expertise. unfortunately, unlike most, smart people are often not aware that they are stupid in these areas, and act as if their level of knowledge is the same as in their field. this often leads to predictably disastrous results. in this situation, it also helps that his mom also just happens to be a dogshit human being (which is a very bad when combined with the whole "unearned sense of knowledge and superiority" thing)

What a bitch Shizuka, I didn't expect this. Everyone is minimally traumatized by one thing

This is so frustrating because all of the children have created their own issues but it all stems from trauma.

Pfft, the author is making Shizuka into some 200 IQ manipulative monster she isn't. Someone so cunning would've snapped and killed Marina instead of suiciding.

Oh well...

F Azuma's mom.

At the end Azuma may frame his own bro, or the bro sniffed out the BS and Azuma being a loser simp and is now about to stop him from ruining his life. Although, Azuma can still not avoid punishment. He's still an accomplice regardless.

I feel so bad for Azuma-kun, he deserved so much better, it's what happens when u don't ever get approval even tho you are doing great, you get manipulated so easely.

I don't know what's gonna happen but I'm hyped up, specially seeing the next chapter's first image.
