writE: The Absent One
Just one episode more to be done with the first cour, and then moving on with season two.
I can feel from this particular episode that the staff took several, subtle creative liberties from the source material while adapting Kanae and Tsukiyama's scenes.
Honestly, in the manga Kanae felt uninteresting to me and lacked punch, but the anime adaptation focusing mostly on her memories and her unrequited love for Tsukiyama, a great deal in this episode, made me to both warm up and caring sympathetically for her.
As for Tsukiyama, this became the moment for him to shine and growing-up into a true man genuinely caring for his family and friends, and achieving to feel anguish, pain, and regret on the fear about losing them all and, still, having no choice but to survive and living on.
