>>128489this is kinda the point though
in the manga misaki is fooled by famazaki to help with fuyucomi instead, and because the meetup tries to ack by carbonmonoxide poisoning they can just take satou out of the tent once he's passed out
the dramatic deflation is the entire point of welcome to the NHK, because satou and the misaki act dramatic cuz thats what tey've seen on tv
the "jumping off a cliff" and "emotionally warming scene of passionately shouting at a suicidal guy not to do it" are horribly cliche and cringe and thats the perspective satou and misaki have on their own lives
but misaki doesnt actually know how to convince satou not to kill himself, and satou doesn't really have the courage to jump immediately either
the manga makes this more explicit though
