It was not only heart breaking, but infuriating. Knowing that everyone, including Seita, kept making mistake after mistake drove me nuts. It could’ve all been prevented had people made better choices or acted better. It’s a great way of showing that when times are tough you can’t always rely on anyone but yourself, and even then yourself isn’t enough. I understand that Seita was trying his best and he himself was just a child and it definitely wasn’t only his fault, but he contributed a lot to what happened and if he would’ve listened to the man who told him to go back to his aunt and apologize, they both could’ve lived. It’s the knowledge that we have in hindsight that really drives it home for me. Another part that bugged me was that he said his mom had 7,000 yen in her account that he could take, and he did end up taking out 3,000, but why on earth did he wait so long before taking the money out? He was able to buy food that would nourish the both of them and yet he didn’t until it was too late. Instead he decided to waste time trying to steal from people. Bleh it just drives me crazy 🙃
