My Boy continues to be a interesting character study of people so lonely that a single person can fill this life even with boring things like playing soccer.

With Satoko now meeting Mashuu's father things are getting worse and worse. At first she promises nothing else is happening but practicing and the father even agrees that would be okay. But what happens when Satoko stops and forgets to mention something? Everything falls apart.

I really enjoyed the reality of the situation. Darker than I expected and even a timeskip comes along. I'm excited to see where we go and as long as the series maintains a interesting storyline with this great art, and solid dialogue. I'm in it for the long run.
