The most recent chapter had left things uncertain, especially since it was not clear whether Aqua Hoshino had died due to the wound she had caused to simulate a confrontation with her father, Hikaru Kamiki, which would end with both of them falling from above. seaward. However, the most recent leaks would have made it clear that the protagonist has, in fact, died, especially due to the wording that is presented.
Of course, considering Aka Akasaka's background, it is possible that everything ends well through a deus ex machina or some resource that the author adds at the last minute. Whether this happens or not, there is no doubt that the work has managed to keep fans on the edge of their seats with these last chapters. Will it be possible for Akasaka-sensei to break the paradigm and really end the life of its protagonist?
Finally, the leaks revealed the following:
- The crow girl seemed to have borrowed Aqua's consciousness to show her the dream from the previous chapter. Aqua continues to drown, feeling cold, suffocating, uncomfortable and in pain.
- Aqua: “It burns”, “It's cold”, “Pain”.
- He then thinks of B-Komachi singing beautifully, imagining that he can hear the concert, which calms his struggle. With a smile on her face, Aqua passes away peacefully (this is a double page spread). In other words, Aqua died.
- Some time later, a fishing boat, 20 kilometers from the crime scene, found a floating body, well preserved due to the cold climate (minimal damage and very low temperatures). Aqua's plan was impeccable. The police and public were completely baffled by its incredible brilliance, making it major news.
- Kana, upon seeing the news, was shocked for an entire panel (her eyes completely black). Akane, holding flowers, walked towards the seashore. She was the only one who saw through Aqua's brilliant strategy, being amazed by the depth of her wisdom and the firmness of her decision.
- Akane: “Did you protect Ruby's future? I really didn't expect this. I thought you would definitely come back. I even assessed you before you left, and you clearly had hope for the future and didn't want to die at all. Did you really not want my help that much like that? It wouldn't have been that hard to set up the perfect crime scene for you, you know? I wouldn't have minded doing it for you at all.“
