What to Expect in Chapter 486
Chapter 486 is expected to take on a lighter theme centered around “digging up yams.” The chapter will likely showcase a rural activity where Komi, Tadano, and their families or friends participate in harvesting yams. This provides a refreshing contrast to the more emotional flashback scenes from previous chapters.
Fans can look forward to comical interactions among the characters as they dig for yams. Expect to see Komi engaging in the activity with her characteristic enthusiasm, despite her social anxiety, while Tadano is there to support her as always. This light-hearted scenario promises to deliver both humor and warmth.
Recap of Chapter 485
Chapter 485, titled “The Niimi Family,” opened with a flashback to Shuko Niimi’s past during her grandmother’s funeral. Raised by her grandmother after her parents’ passing, Shuko gives a heartfelt eulogy. As the ceremony proceeds, attendees commend her strength, assuming she is coping well. However, after bidding farewell to friends, including Masayoshi Komi, she breaks down, feeling the weight of her solitude.
In a surprising turn of events, Masayoshi returns on his motorcycle, crashing into a pole nearby. He rushes to her side, kneeling and asking for her hand in marriage, assuring her that she would never be alone again.
In the present, Shuko is seen paying her respects at a cemetery. Alongside her are Shoko, Tadano, Shousuke, and Masayoshi. They soon discover that a large rock she honors isn’t an ancestor’s grave but part of a family tradition where Shuko’s family members are cremated and their ashes scattered at sea.
The chapter concludes with Masayoshi and Shoko in shock over the revelation about the rock, believing it to be a grave, while Shuko kisses each of them on the cheek with a smile, adding a light-hearted ending to an otherwise emotional chapter.
As the series progresses, the mix of humor and heartfelt moments continues to resonate with fans, making each chapter a delightful experience. Be sure to catch Chapter 486 for more adorable interactions and character development!
