For all the criticism unleashed toward Gege (some of which is justified, some of which isn’t) I will never not get down on my knees with gratitude for how he chose to depict Satoru’s passing. Chapter 236 is an indisputable masterpiece — everything from its title, the airport, its connotation as a liminal space to teenage Suguru greeting him first, Satoru’s reunion with Haibara and Nanami and their dialogue. Whoever said that Satoru had bottled all the happiness he had experienced during high school and then sampled from it for the rest of his life, you and I think the same. Despite the tremendous amount of pain it induces, Chapter 236 will always be my favorite.
