ちはやふる [Chihayafuru] #36

by Yuki Suetsugu

Challengers meet and clash at the Master and Queen Match preliminaries. The Queen Match is on the line as Chihaya takes on Rion Yamashiro from Fujisaki High's powerhouse team in her semi-final match, a showdown between two players with an unbelievable feel for karuta! Taichi has also made it to the semi-finals and attempts to use the "controlling karuta" he learned from Master Suou against Sudo. Meanwhile in the West Japan preliminary, Arata finds himself in a surprisingly difficult battle...! The three childhood friends who've devoted their teenage years to karuta now dream of a future where they're reunited once more.

I love how Arata’s play is always similar of water—ever-flowing and smooth. Even the illustrations capture it so well, providing me with the feels and chills.

As much as water can be gentle and calming, there may also be horrendous waves. Which is in the end, something that Arata is totally in control in.

Whatever “water” style he plans to play—that’s for him to choose and find out.

I hate it when they try to put pressure on people potentially losing but it’s so obvious who’s going to win these current matches 😒

This did an amazing job of keeping the tension despite us knowing who would win. We're getting close to the end now!
