Forums - A question about stylistic furigana overrides (in manga/novels)

So, I was reading 『く』, and came across this: は… with the name (Shouhei) being accompanied by the furigana こっち. It makes perfect sense in context, but I hadn't really encountered it before (somehow). Basically both は… and こっちのは… make sense. Is it like that to point out who's question it was, while still reading as こっちの? How common is this?

The more you know, I guess 😆

義訓 is very common. It’s hard to believe you haven’t encountered it before. Most likely you saw it but didn’t notice.

Japanese with Anime has a comprehensive treatment that I’m sure you’ll enjoy reading.

Thanks! Now that you mention it, I've 100% seen it many times, It just didn't click that it could be used like that. I guess it's the first time I've seen 義訓 used in this way specifically.

I've actually seen オーバーロード, so I have literally encountered a lot of those exact examples XD
