The third volume of the Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian manga focuses on jealousy from three characters: Alya envies Yuki's closeness to Masachika, Yuki resents losing her brother's attention, and Masachika admires Alya's passion to the point of envy.
The third volume of the Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian manga puts envy front and center, with three characters each nursing a different flavor of jealousy. Alya, believing Yuki is Masachika's childhood friend, grows possessive when she sees him respond warmly to Yuki's requests and memories. Yuki, who is actually Masachika's younger sister but cannot be publicly acknowledged as such, misses the closeness they once shared and inserts herself between the pair. Masachika, meanwhile, watches Alya pursue the student council presidency with single-minded passion and thinks to himself, 'She's incredible... I really envy her...' The volume treats envy not as a flaw but as a natural emotion tied to wanting to be closest to someone or to possess traits one admires in another.
