SO MEANINGFUL!!! I've read the first few volumes of the manga but hadn't realised -- or had forgotten -- that it has so much extra stuff that wasn't in the anime. The basic plot is the same, but I think, e.g., Hagu's dilemma wrt career choices is laid out more clearly here. I just love it. And Takemoto riding away ... Hagu and Takemoto are really the most compelling characters in this later arc, or maybe I just think so because pondering about art and work and the meaning of life feels more meaningful to me than unrequited love, which is a bit juvenile in a way, as Nomiya points out.

in which takemoto's long-awaited job offer is rescinded, and he hops on his bike and rides far far away. morita is jealous of the attention he receives and also runs away "to find himself." miwako-san and leader continue to crack me up.

Wow, Takemoto, so bold!!
I can't wait to see where he ends up!
And Hagu, oh I feel your pain! When folk just expect too much from you but you just want to do what you love, hang in there okay?!
As to Morita...yeah...I laughed so much though!!!

The bonus chapter was brilliant too, showing how you can shoot yourself in the foot when trying to be mean, so there Miwako!!

One very satisfying read, but oh, I need to move onto the next SOON!
