#they're all so well written that komachi feels like she really got the shaft with all the ominous foreshadowing

Sorry but Komachi was too absent from the story for too long for the ending to feel satisfying to me as is. Maybe if I did a full reread of the manga it would sit better, but following it as it released means there were literally years gap between the last time she was prevalent for more than half a chapter before the huge Komachi dump at the end.

Akira repeatedly supported Satsuki and was with her for multiple important developmental arcs and was over all a more interesting character on account of doing things and being on-screen

Komachi's deal feels like it wasn't properly set up and then was half-resolved by the other storytelling standards of the manga. Every other victory was hard won and Komachi's arc was open and shut with an honestly sort of underwhelming conversation on the roof.

The ending isn't bad, but it feels like there should have been like 3 more chapters in this arc to actually flesh it out and a full chapter at the end properly reintroducing Komachi into the group.
