Of course, Masuzu Natsukawa's choice of bottoms was not the main reason Utaha Kasumigaoka had begun to doubt things. In fact, it had nothing to do with her at all. She had only been mentioned because, also dressed in a swimsuit, she formed quite a stark contrast with Yukino and Eriri.
They were all high school girls, yet Yukino and Eriri were so utterly unremarkable, while Masuzu Natsukawa, Ako Tamaki, Sakura Yamauchi, and the others...
With swimsuits accentuating them, the gap between an unremarkable life and a spectacularly eventful one was simply too vast!
