In Truth There Is Only Regrets…
So let’s sum this up quickly. This Chapter reveal is kinda important, but I guess only in the end results as to why Tsukasa is so motivated the way she is. SPOILERS of course.
Is this the burial place of the one time mistress of an important historical figure of 800 years ago? Yes. Her story, and where she falls off the timeline, is found in this Chapter.
As with a great deal of things, this manga blends IRL individuals and events with its long lived story of regret, obsession, and loss. Ultimately ending in love. That’s fine. Makes it interesting.
So is Kaguya right? Is this graveyard the find of a millennium? Maybe… Except what will truly be earned disturbing the tests of all these bodies? As this entire graveyard? Holds the remains of many years of people who were known, but fell off the radar.
Could modern science even hope to 100% ID every body? Without the genetic info from history to match it to? At best they can deduce its more than likely they are the famous missing people… But then what?
The ultimate take away from this graveyard? Tsukasa’s impact on the timeline has weaved a long trail of individuals she knew. All dying holding fast her secrets. Some vanishing to do so.
In the end this graveyard is a sharp painful reminder of over a millenia of loss. And her quest to end her forced, unwanted immortality. Anyway everyone decides to let the dead lie undisturbed. No one will report this.
Suddenly Kaguya is satisfied, finding the answer to her question. That question? Why is this place so important to Tsukasa. Answer? It contains the remains of the people she cared for in the past.
So that seems to be it… Except that answers Kaguya’s inquiry. Now it’s time for Tsukasa to wonder… Who Kaguya is. We know. From the fact this is near done? And future volume solicits? We know.
We know she’s the so called Goddess Of The Moon whose blood made Tsukasa immortal… By the way nobody yet addressed the fact that Tsukasa using her blood to save Nasa probably made him immortal too.
But how? And who is she really? That answer… Won’t be here until Volume 22. We are just walking there one Chapter at a time. Speaking of which we go on tomorrow. See you.
