This is going to be one pretty tough emotional rope to untangle for the cast. There are layers and layers of misunderstanding that touch multiple characters and now the fallout has begun. Additionally, I have to wonder if Aya will re-enter the story in the next scene or two, it would kinda make sense since given the setting. From a character perspective, Aya misinterpreted what was happening with Eri and Ken to begin with and unknowingly set things in motion. Best case scenario, this could wind up headed toward a moment where everyone finds themselves together, their collective awareness of what is happening begins to click and things can get patched up emotionally, though it's pretty clear there's is still plenty of tumult ahead regardless. I could be wrong, of course, but with all that our cast has been through, how far the cousins and Saki in particular have come and how close the main cast is to one another, I find it difficult to believe that everything will just fall apart without some effort and mending things.

Think carefully , what reason does Jun have to duel with Chihaya? Her goal is to stop Eri to marry her father.( Although there was no such thing at all.) This has nothing to do with Chihaya. Does Jun really need to go duel?

I wonder if Eri was shocked by Chihaya’s behavior here. Because otherwise I wonder why she allowed her to dash outside. Without any resistance after giving such a challenge

Chihaya really is dead set on the challenge here

Is that all you can say Eri? Wouldn’t it be prudent to go after her, make sure she doesn’t drown herself in the meantime?
