Ahhh more angst to follow.. the beginning of this chapter really does feel so gloomy and depressed, and the tensions between them is so palpable. Poor kazama XD its kinda sad and but also hilarious how he tried to make conversation and them just ignoring him.. but it does make sense cause its just too soon and i also think it would be odd for him to just join their group like that. Hopefully nothing happens to him.

More nino's depression hours, and his dream is really unnerving. When you mentioned collars, i got a traumatic flashback hahaha
Although the game itself seems really interesting, i hope nino wont have to play it anytime soon ><
Gosh that dream is really the worst nightmare.. i hope it wont come true, and that nino wouldnt wanna feel the power rush and instead try hard to save his friends. In a way it is true that he already did it during baba nuki cause he was in total control in that game, almost forgetting what will happen to the loser.

Oh-chan and nino's conversation.. poor oh-chan, it must hurt to realise that your friends would have preferred for you to die instead of the other. I also felt really guilty cause i said the same thing. And nino said nothing to deny that. When he said that nino is important because he's a part of them, i cried a little. The words felt so sincere that i felt even more bad for oh-chan since he must be having major survivor guilt.. he also needs some reassurance and confirmation from his team that he is necessary too :(

Sho's state is just heartbreaking. Though i dont blame him cause losing the light n love of your life must be extremely painful.. pain i would never want to experience.
Ohno's flashbacks with aiba really hurts, when aiba chan said that they are broken, it really is true. And ohno visiting the grave 😢 hopefully aiba's wish do come true and that they will get along again.

And.. miracle boy strikes again 😊 oh chan fishing successfully and catching some fish for them to cook really does change the whole mood of the fic. I love how it doesnt feel as somber and depressed as before and now its all lighthearted and warm again, the true vibes of arashi. Love to see them work together and not blaming each other, cooperating to make this fresh meal together 🥲 hope aiba chan can smile also when seeing that his wish finally come true. Now we just wait for jun to come back and to join them again and they will be somewhat complete (though they will never be truly complete 😭).
