#furudate ilysm this is awesome thanks

like this is what i'm talking about, how fucking cool is it that furudate writes a whole new bonus chapter for us that shows another perspective to a scene that we've seen before and then at the end of that chapter they're just like "oh and by the way here's what they're doing now, today as 30-year-olds—they all still hang out and think about volleyball" like wtf??? thats SICK

furudate could have chosen any time period to show that kai is still thinking about what happened back then and that it haunts him differently than how he expected, and furudate chose now, and i just think that's so cool. it helps the characters feel alive and fresh imo, as if they're real regular guys just hanging out in some parallel universe to ours lmao (and like. yeah i know that sounds silly, but that's kind of my point—it's fun!)

and on a personal level i find it especially impactful since i'm the same age as the third years, i also turn 30 this year, and idk to get to see them living life in the present helps me feel like i'm still connected to them and this story even though it's been over for almost four years now—and it's just kind of exciting, like, are we just gonna get updates like this indefinitely? will we watch them all grow old as we do??? i love it
