This chapter seems like a conclusion to the arc. Through Chika, everyone remembers what’s important about music. And, the other part is Hiro giving advice and encouragement to Satowa regarding how to deal with the romantic feelings they both have. I wonder if Satowa figured out who Hiro likes?
Hm...just a month and a half to go before the Nationals. It does seem that there’s little time left and yet they haven’t exactly progressed much in terms of making this performance work. I guess it is the type of scenario wherein things just so happen fall into place in time before the competition? I’m just wondering if that is enough time to realistically/at least convincing in manga, be able to pull a first place-worthy performance for the Nationals.
