Hi there, new lurker and new commenter. I'm so happy to see this novel being translated after I saw the anime and went to read the manga to get a better understanding of the parts the anime glossed over. Thank you so much for bringing this to us! I'm enjoying the increased focus on Seishin and Toshio, even if I did think Natsuno had some decent parts in the anime/manga. Seishin is probably my favorite character because of the development he undergoes, and if I can find it again, I ran across a fan article that explores/analyzes his characterization from beginning to end that I'll link here if possible for other peoples' perusal. Again, thank you for your hard work!
