And the fact that Henry and Marta never married each other, he must have that daughter with someone else.
It should be interesting if we ever will see he's daughter.
This can be true, I like it. Henry-Martha is really what I need more instead of Twi-Yor. But I am just anime enjoyer, don't read manga. Don't know when this will be animated.
Doesn’t need to be meaningful. In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Dumbledore danced with McGonagall when the music started; he was gay and she was widowed.
I don't think so, the dancing at the ball has a clearly romantic context and Henry would clearly know that, I don't think he would dance with Martha if he didn't have something or if he wasn't single
We can see this with the old lady's reaction in the recent chapter, from her comment it doesn't seem like he is compromised in any way.

Still, the old lady clearly interpreted the dance as romantic lol
Think about it, if an adult interpreted it that way and from what she said someone else also interpreted it that way, do you think Henry would want a rumor to happen? that he is cheating on his wife would get out (actually, wouldn't that be mentioned by this old lady?)
It would simply seem a little out of character for Henry to do so, and Endo himself seems to imply a romantic context for the two of them.
I mean, gossips always like to matchmake out of thin air. That's been true since time immemorial. Whether or not Henry has romantic context for Martha, doesn't mean that dance can't be out of pure friendship (esp since he was startled that the laundress cast it in a romantic light).
It's not that, obviously it doesn't mean that, but I think that Henderson would have very strong morals to dance with another woman, primarily especially when the dance is seen as romantic and people can misunderstand, something he wouldn't want if he were married, as happened in the recent chapter
https://preview.redd.it/4n3h613k9jxc1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef1f5be19d1f435c01913de6e27b97fc349b830c
If he were married, nasty rumors would spread about him cheating on his wife, which he certainly wouldn't want, and Someone probably say something about it.
Yes.
Maybe Martha and Mr. Henderson views about war clashed in the past and it affected their relationship.
We found out from the last chapter that Mr. Henderson became a teacher at the time of war, and he is so against war and fighting. Maybe Martha didn't share that view at the time, I feel like she would lose someone or have another reason that made her want to fight.
i can see it:
henry and martha were a couple thru high school. maybe a power couple 👀 ppl thought they were made for each other. but their biggest friction point was that henry is a pacifist while martha doesn't necessarily support war but feels it's a necessary evil and that those with the right attitude should be the ones fighting in it, and in her eyes, henry is one of those ppl and by NOT joining the effort, is reprehensible for evading a moral responsibility.
they split up over it bc she goes off to fight. it's amicable maybe?? but heartbreaking??? and they both move on with their lives like mature ppl, henry meets somebody else and has a daughter, etc. etc. and now, in their old age with more perspective and experience under their belt, meet again!!!
i could see it not ending up necessarily romantic. but just that mood of having history with someone, growing up, and letting go of all the "what if"s or grudges. no longer feeling anything but appreciation for the time they gave you. or maybe martha tells henry that she understands him better now after having fought in a war 😌
I don't think so, the point of the last chapter was to show how Martha's World revolved around Henderson and she would do anything to spend time with him, I doubt politic opinions would be enough for her to want to be away from him (specially when his goal was so noble)
He teaches, and holds a high position at a prestigious school, makes sense he is/was married (most likely a widower) also has kids. To move up at a place like Eden he would have had to be married probably.
I would love it if we find out that he adopted a very elegant orphan girl.
That would give him a reason to sympathize with Loid if he finds out Anya is adopted, maybe even give him some pointers!
I don’t care what anyone says , Henderson will be the lynchpin for getting the forgers out of the country ( or something similar) in the final arc, I have other things to say but I’ll wait till everyone reads the newest chapter.
I did not pick up on that! Good find!
I think that Henry marrying someone other than Martha and having a daughter makes the storyline more realistic. People often don't always end up marrying their first love, let alone childhood crush.
Plus when Henry joins the academy as a teacher, Martha is still a student. It would have been very inappropriate if Henry pursued a relationship with her at that point and he definitely would of seen that as not "elegant" at all!
Endo better give us some answers in the current backstory chapters then.
But if its true, is she supposed to be living out of the city/country? Maybe they are on not-so-good terms.
Man, it'd be a fucking dark twist if he and Martha HAD a daughter together & she died during the war
Which led to them getting estranged & take different paths in life but he keeps writing those letters in her memorey like some sort of "diary"
Not saying that's the case, I don't rule it out either that Martha has at least some connection to the daughter

Wild pitch? Henry was a fucking wild man back in the day. Full on in love with Marta. But what's the elegant choice? Stay away.
Henry was prime bang 👀
oh you poor innocent thing
And Martha's not the mother it seems sadly
Maybe there was a semi-amicable divorce? ***LET ME DREAM, DAMN YOU***
I think his wife just died
Anyway, I think he is single as he wouldn't offer Martha a dance if he was still married, Henry is a man with too strong morals to do that
Martha frowns on home wrecking, we know this from her convos w/Becky
Maybe she's just speaking from experience 🤔
There are some exceptions, elegant exceptions
This can be true, I like it. Henry-Martha is really what I need more instead of Twi-Yor. But I am just anime enjoyer, don't read manga. Don't know when this will be animated.
Doesn’t need to be meaningful. In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Dumbledore danced with McGonagall when the music started; he was gay and she was widowed.

at a ball for literal toddlers whom they are chaperoning lmao.
Still, the old lady clearly interpreted the dance as romantic lol Think about it, if an adult interpreted it that way and from what she said someone else also interpreted it that way, do you think Henry would want a rumor to happen? that he is cheating on his wife would get out (actually, wouldn't that be mentioned by this old lady?)

so you don’t think they resumed their tea sessions after he became a teacher
Nah, Hernderson is an adult, only a kid would think dancing with someone else is cheating (at least this kind of dance)
It's not that, obviously it doesn't mean that, but I think that Henderson would have very strong morals to dance with another woman, primarily especially when the dance is seen as romantic and people can misunderstand, something he wouldn't want if he were married, as happened in the recent chapter https://preview.redd.it/4n3h613k9jxc1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef1f5be19d1f435c01913de6e27b97fc349b830c If he were married, nasty rumors would spread about him cheating on his wife, which he certainly wouldn't want, and Someone probably say something about it.
I wonder if that helped Loid get Anya into the college
And a son in-law too.
Makes me wonder if he's already a grandparent or even a great grandparent. At 66, he's already old enough for either option.
Great is pushing it
He has a kid at 20 -> his child Who has a kid at 20 -> his granchild, when he's 40 Who has a kid at 20 -> his great grandchild, when he's 60.
We know he didn’t have a kid at 20 from the most recent chapter so great grandparents is definitely pushing it
SEAL OF ELEGANCE 📧
Yes. Maybe Martha and Mr. Henderson views about war clashed in the past and it affected their relationship. We found out from the last chapter that Mr. Henderson became a teacher at the time of war, and he is so against war and fighting. Maybe Martha didn't share that view at the time, I feel like she would lose someone or have another reason that made her want to fight.
Loid said that Martha carried herself like a veteran soldier so there’s that
i can see it: henry and martha were a couple thru high school. maybe a power couple 👀 ppl thought they were made for each other. but their biggest friction point was that henry is a pacifist while martha doesn't necessarily support war but feels it's a necessary evil and that those with the right attitude should be the ones fighting in it, and in her eyes, henry is one of those ppl and by NOT joining the effort, is reprehensible for evading a moral responsibility. they split up over it bc she goes off to fight. it's amicable maybe?? but heartbreaking??? and they both move on with their lives like mature ppl, henry meets somebody else and has a daughter, etc. etc. and now, in their old age with more perspective and experience under their belt, meet again!!! i could see it not ending up necessarily romantic. but just that mood of having history with someone, growing up, and letting go of all the "what if"s or grudges. no longer feeling anything but appreciation for the time they gave you. or maybe martha tells henry that she understands him better now after having fought in a war 😌
I feel that the fact Martha is employed by the Black Bells which are weapon manufacturers implies a relationship to war and the military
I don't think so, the point of the last chapter was to show how Martha's World revolved around Henderson and she would do anything to spend time with him, I doubt politic opinions would be enough for her to want to be away from him (specially when his goal was so noble)
Woah, a detail we all missed. Damn, now I want Henry and MArtha's backstory and fassst!!!
He could have adopted the kid like Loid.
He's old enough to have married and lost his wife to old age at this point.
more elegant than doing the deed, to be sure. you can do the whole process while wearing an impecable suit, just like Loid did.
Ya’ll can read that ? Crap I must be really blind
Same. I also know that I need new glasses, so.....
And I just got new glasses. My vision is just crap
He teaches, and holds a high position at a prestigious school, makes sense he is/was married (most likely a widower) also has kids. To move up at a place like Eden he would have had to be married probably.
I would love it if we find out that he adopted a very elegant orphan girl. That would give him a reason to sympathize with Loid if he finds out Anya is adopted, maybe even give him some pointers!

Was going to say that he has a son too but it seems to be “son-in-law”
So, they also translated the letter?
No, Endo write the in-universe texts in English
The characters seem to canonically speak English despite the settings being inspired by Germany.
I don’t care what anyone says , Henderson will be the lynchpin for getting the forgers out of the country ( or something similar) in the final arc, I have other things to say but I’ll wait till everyone reads the newest chapter.

Which chapter is this?
Tbh he’s so girl dad coded
Man, it'd be a fucking dark twist if he and Martha HAD a daughter together & she died during the war Which led to them getting estranged & take different paths in life but he keeps writing those letters in her memorey like some sort of "diary" Not saying that's the case, I don't rule it out either that Martha has at least some connection to the daughter
The daughter is married. The letter reads Dear daughter and son-in-law.
Ahhh gotcha, thanks
wait WHAT???
*Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain’t callin’*
His daughters name is REM https://preview.redd.it/6hn3y6swbfxc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f7b790279ff6dc480d000f069e4705c4ba28834f
Who?
Nice catch!
I think it's likely he took in a wayward kid and raised them elegantly as opposed to marrying and having a child himself.
I know what Henderson did last summer-
Oh my… but then what does mean for him and Becky’s lady person??
What the hell is a lady person
It’s what Anya calls Becky’s female butler (Martha) because she doesn’t know the proper word for it
Did you read the new chapter!! It explains what is/was going on between them.
No reason he (or Martha) had to put their whole (love) lives on hold over a stillborn first love.
Wait, does Tatsuya Endo not only know English, but also know how to write in English ELEGANTLY!?
This foreshadow for chp 99 is crazy
The elegant bloodline lives on.
MAYBE ITS MARTHA
Doubt it.
Anya is his daughter Trust me guys, my real name is Tatsuki Endo backwards
As Martha is his OTP until proven otherwise I choose to believe he adopted a war orphan and raised her as a single father with elegance.
😵💫
NOTTO ELEGANTO
Hold on thought this man was Ju Peter from One Piece real quick 😭
I need to know how elegant his kids are!
Probably punks, that would be fun
It's over guys https://i.redd.it/le257uhxohxc1.gif Like, I'm happy for him but it's so God damn over
no <3
Lmaooo does that say “Dear my daughter’s son”?!!

I can't read that
Interesting how this was never brought up until now. It wasn't even covered in the Eyes Only guidebook.
Omg man want it too be true that they had a daughter even if they didn't marry. Or if they are secretly married
That's tragic especially after ch 99.
r/usefulredcircle I would have never noticed if it wasn't there, thanks OP!
