* So, has anybody else noticed the FridgeHorror of Keitaro being trapped in an abusive relationship at the end? Happy Ending for Naru maybe, but Keitaro's life is going to be miserable.

** For the part about school, Koala doesn't seem to go to school for about half the manga and even Shinobu is not shown doing school related stuff for the first several volumes. I'd chalk it up to the manga being told from Naru and Keitarou's POV so we are only seeing it from his POV and also the manga focusing on the exciting bits of the Hinata sou's daily lives. I mean they do show Motoko in school uniform coming home (often during a very whacky chapter filled with out of norm events) and even Shinobu's school life doesn't get emphasized until she decides to go to Todai enough that it feels like she isn't going to school either. So Sarah probably does go to school but that stuff would be boring and Sarah is an extra so of course the manga doesn't emphasize.
** Going by in-universe and within the plot, most of when Sarah is shown is during summer vacation with Seta out on his adventures. Also its stated that Seta just returned recently to Japan so the paperwork may still being processed. By the time she lives at Hinata, so much time has passed and so many big events are happening that Sarah's day to day life gets glossed over. In addition, she's given less screen time and shown as side kicked to Su, supporting my first stsatement even more.
** As for Seta taking care of Sara- remember Sara's mother was Seta's first love. Nothing's stated in the story but perhaps Seta made a promise to Sara's mom? Or maybe familial problems were happening and Sara's blood relatives decided Seta (as the man who loved her mom so much and also a highly educated professor) would be a better caretaker?
** As for Seta's relative irresponsibility and seemingly neglect of Sara is TruthInTelevision. People who work in careers involving lots of travel and overwork time often have to let someone else look after the child and as someone who has military relatives and friends from military families, I can confirm Seta's parenting irl. Thats not counting ValuesDissonance in Asia where a parent (especially a father) isn't seen as neglectful for doing such a thing especially if the parent's is bringing money home and the child has his basic needs covered. If anything, Asian culture tends to view such parents as very good ones, even ideal.
