    小梅の道（前編）

    前回大会の決勝戦でプラウダに敗れ、みほがいなくなった後の黒森峰女学園を赤星小梅視点で描いた完全ねつ造漫画です。長いです。

    【注意点】（必ずこれらを了承してくださった方だけ読んでください）
    ・オリジナルキャラクターがいる。
    ・ノウメンによる完全妄想漫画である。
    ・暗い展開、重い展開が多い。

    Twitter上で定期的に更新中なのですが、皆さまから「見てて苦しい」というお声を頂いております。そういうものに耐性の無い方は閲覧しないことをお勧めします。

    【追記】分かりにくいと指摘がありましたので言及しておきます。最後のところ小梅はエリカの発言と手に脅迫文を持っていた事から下駄箱にそれらを入れていた犯人がエリカだったと勘違いしています。言葉足らずな表現で申し訳ありませんでした...。

    I'll probably have to delay today's posting until tomorrow. The next group of pages has a lot of complicated text that is taking extra long to translate... :/

    Worth taking the time, this is pretty good so far. Thank you for your efforts.

    I don't understand the logic of what they're arguing at all.
    "Taught her something valuable"? What was that then?

    That the welfare of others is more important than winning. Miho has displayed this trait constantly throughout the series. This is her style of tankery, as opposed to the tankery of the Nishizumi-style and Kuromorimine where nothing is more important than winning. NOTHING.

    Was Koume and her crew actually in real danger of drowning?

    By all accounts yes they were. Koume certainly believes so, as you can tell by the top panel on post #3830860. That's her imagined hand floating in the depths, a very common form of imagery used to convey the implication of someone having drowned.

    Other people including artists also believe the same, and you can see another example of this in post #2568408 where it was imagined that Miho DID NOT rescue Koume.

    What does Koume mean by her "remaining behind" (thanks to Miho)?

    Because of Miho's courageous act of rescuing Koume but therefore costing the Kuromorimine the match, Koume feels like if she left Kuromorimine that Miho's sacrifice would have been all in vain. Also, the courage that Miho displayed at that time in the face of adversity gives Koume the courage to remain behind despite all of the adversity that she faces.
