Damn, this is getting a bit depressing now. I hope she can reunite with sensei soon before her months are up.

No chance. she already said, in her own ways, she abandon him.

It is partly why this whole manga has a persistent sentimental tone that people could easily relate to.

This is incredibly sad :(
I think she's too harsh on herself, but I also understand where she's coming from.

I can really feel the author's pain in this. It must have been hard for her to write this and admit all her guilt she felt.

The mood changed really quick toward the end of the chapter. I don't think admitting these kinds of things is easy and to draw and write it out in a manga for everyone to read as well. It's sad that she only realized it afterward.

Dealing with someone dying is so difficult, it's hard to thoroughly understand how quickly it happens (doesn't even matter if it's the first time going through it or not, sometimes). I know I struggle with a lot of the same regrets, too. And like Hayashi, I can't remember what was going through my head during those times. But life goes on and we can't turn back time. It's just how it is.
Such a poignant story, with cleverly placed jokes. If anything, I think Sensei would feel very proud if he could read this manga.

It takes a lot of guts to be that honest and face yourself...

You've got to hand it to the mangaka.
Yes its an autobiography but she has never tried to cover herself in glory. Leaving Sensei was incredibly cruel and naive I guess, but that's what makes her human. To acknowledge that, however regretful it might be, would probably make sensei a little bit content.

Hopefully, later in life, Akiko came to understand that grief makes you do things you can't fully understand. It's easy to pick yourself apart in retrospect. I'm more than sure that Sensei understood. Being handed his own outcome in life, he chose to work instead of get caught in sentimentalities.

Reading this, I feel like it's an apology piece to him. I hope Akiko can make peace with herself one day.
