Mayumi’s return was a delightful surprise for fans of the anime. Since she had graduated from the academy and was now in college, people weren’t sure if she’d appear regularly.
However, her encounter with Tatsuya was heartwarming and held special meaning for fans who adore the bond between the two characters.
