Author's Commentary #585:
Time to talk about Chapter 585: Thirsty for soda.
First off, I decided to edit the previous chapter to include the full game, rather than splitting it up into two chapters, so if you read Chapter 584 in it's initial form, you'll want to go back and read it again to see how the game ends. Now onto this chapter.
I felt I needed a little interlude between the matches, so I decided to have Ilmi get some soda, and in the process, I thought up another short smothered mate checkmate that Kana could use against Agatha. I initially meant to do more, like add a bit more lore including Ilmi taking note of all that was happening at the lab, but decided to just have the girl reminisce just to think about some soda.
Now free from pure digitalization, she's free to eat solids and drink liquids proper again. She really likes soda, but also sugary drinks in general.
That's all for this commentary. I hope you enjoyed it.
