old meme alert

There's a panel in Akashi's backstory (Q266) that looks like this:

In the tankoubon version, an image of Akashi with his father was added to the background:

It was a nice addition that helped with Akashi Masaomi's character. He made Seijuurou study everything, but at least he was there himself to watch over his son instead of just throwing a mountain of work at Seijuurou and leaving the kid to himself. While he was distant and did not seem to give much thought to Seijuurou's feelings, he did try to spend time for his son despite the workload of a CEO, and I think that made him a little better than how he was depicted earlier.

Also: "Did Masaomi love Shiori?"

I think this question was brought up some time before and the answer was behind this panel. The English translation above said "as though he'd forgotten she had ever existed" - in past perfect tense, giving the impression of "he had already forgotten about her". The Japanese dialogue said "それを忘れようとする" which meant "Masaomi tried to forget Shiori existed". And it's obviously different.

I'd like to believe the reason why Masaomi did that was the fact that an Akashi isn't allowed to show weakness. This is likely something he was taught as a child, as shown when his expectations for Seijuurou wasn't because "you are my son", but because "you are an Akashi". It's a family tradition thing, and Masaomi was another victim to it. He tried to forget about Shiori's death (maybe tried to make his son do it too), as the negative feelings that came with it would get in the way of being the perfect leader he (Seijuurou) had (will have) to be.

I believe he did love her after all. He was in pain just like Seijuurou, and buried that pain by focusing on pushing Seijuurou harder which ended up hurting the kid even more, which was sad for both of them.
