Question from a reader:
Why did Kageyama Yuu kei, despite attending a prestigious high school and being known for his intelligence, choose not to pursue university education? I’m curious about the reasons behind this decision.
Reflecting on Kageyama Yuu kei’s Choice
I’d like to take a moment to consider why Kageyama Yuu kei decided against attending university. He attended a high
school with a high academic ranking and is known for his intelligence. However, the fact that he faced health issues during his exam period must have been a significant challenge for him. I remember my own university entrance exams, studying late into the night. Sitting in a café with friends, surrounded by reference books, brings back nostalgic memories. There were times when I indulged in too many snacks as a way to relieve stress, and before I knew it, hours had passed. Kageyama may have experienced similar stress during his preparations.
The Impact of Health Issues
Studying for entrance exams is a considerable mental and physical burden. The situation of being hospitalized must have been incredibly tough for him. He likely faced expectations and pressure from those around him, as well as his own aspirations. Not being able to overcome this challenge must have been a deeply regrettable decision for him. Of course, entrance exams are not everything. Returning to Hinatazaka allowed him to start a new path, and now he is supported by many fans. I also remember being faced with choices repeatedly as I pursued a career in law. It’s truly difficult to find the right path while considering the opinions of others and one’s own feelings.
The Importance of Finding One’s Own Path
Through Kageyama’s case, I feel the significance of finding one’s own path. Attending university is not the only option, and there are many alternatives. Watching him shine in Hinatazaka makes me think that even if his choices were different, they may have led him to his own version of “success.” In my own journey toward becoming a judicial scrivener, I sometimes sacrificed my own desires in an effort to meet the expectations of those around me. Nevertheless, now that I am walking my own path, I feel that the choices I made back then were not wrong. I encourage all readers to reflect on their own choices and paths. Each life presents various options. If you have any special experiences or memories, I’d love for you to share them in the comments. I hope we can discuss and support each other as we navigate our journeys together.
