My goodness. This chapter feels very meta. I mean, when you see lines like this from Takae, you know that the author knows what is going on. It feels like it is the author speaking to themselves to get out of a funk.

In a recent episode of Oshi no Ko, currently in an arc about a manga author, there was a point at which they explained the two jobs that an editor has:

  1. Help improve the story through feedback to the author
  2. Make sure a successful series never ends

For ages now in this series, the story has been frozen in amber, so good job editor-san! Hopefully stuco prez can help the author fight back and move things along in the narrative.
