I think this is the first time in the series that I feel the unfairness of Ryo's life and my heart feels bruised ;__; I hate the broken Ryo references, hate the image of his father beating him, his family shunning him. I hate it even more that there is more hurt for him waiting up ahead. Can I have faith in him to bear them all?

Ryo makes me believe in previous lives as well, because there must have been other friends, other companions, other lovers before Shige, and Ryo doesn't seem like the type to just call out anyone for help no matter how drunk he is but he called out to Shige. And Shige listened. ♥.

Why do you make the ending a shining light and give me hope? XD
