that cover confused me as well but I believe it's them in the past since they look somehow younger?
Kizu did drawn Haikyuu doujinshi for both IwaOi and MatsuOi and sell in the same pack, so it’s safe to assume that she loves seeing her fans suffer with triangle love story
I don’t hate Uge either, but the thing between him and Aki now is too unhealthy. Aki will surely end up with Haru, but yeah the author really likes Uge so she still draw stuffs about AkiUge now and then. The latest extras even included two 4-koma of them when they were younger

Have you guys seen the cover that the author drew for PASH magazine? Idk I'm confused it feels so pointless supporting Haruki if the author doesn't feel the same I'm all for Haruki so it hurts badly to see that cover, i love and appreciate her work but it really hurts this time. I don't hate Ugetsu, i feel sorry and bad for him because of everything, deep down he doesn't want to let Akihiko go but it's time to let go since everyone is suffocating.

Akihiko confessed to Haruki but i still can't get the thought that the author wants Ugetsu and Akihiko ended up together out of my mind. I thought that's things are over now but after seeing the cover i felt so bad :(
