Lucillenee-chan!
Welcome back! It was a great return. Unsurprisingly, the nee-chan stuff was what stuck out to me most this chapter. This notion of the parallel anime life she could have led, and ways she gets it so wrong just really jives with my obsession with characters that wish real life was more like anime. When E-Flat countered with that thing about how her sister's a hero, I howled with laughter. But Lucille's willingness to roll with it was definitely an unexpected twist.
There were other great parts in this chapter too. The analogy of graduating from CN to AS was one, and I really liked the Iraq War bit. It reminded me of high school civics class, where the teacher would admonish us all to take more of an interest in current events, and then the other students would come up with the blandest political takes, and still get praised by the teacher.
Oh, and before I forget, congrats on being the staff pick this month!
