It's going to take more than 2 months to cleanup whatever is going in the manga. Chapters are randomly getting redrawn and totally changed all willy nilly. I've more or less given up on it.

I hope this is the only instance of a takedown of this magnitude for a while, but I fear the publishers are now smelling the blood in the water now that the Mangadex team have folded to pressure once. Worst case scenario they get repeated takedowns and vanish over time, or shut down like Batoto. I guess this will just repeat the cycle of; community manga site gets popular -> popular community site gets taken down -> surge in use of aggregators -> aggregators increase ads -> community gathers around new popular site. Rinse and repeat, as manga publishers refuse realize what Gabe Newell has known for decades, piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem.

He needs to be sent to horny jail, NOW!

It's like watching a slow motion video of two powerful magnets slamming into each other.

That felt very rushed. Or well, pretty normal for a timeskip ending I suppose, there wasn't really much of a plot anyway. Wish we could have gotten a bit more though.

Certainly one of the endings of all time.

They're really planning for the future huh?

Didn't expect a Mastodon "cameo" in this weeks chapter.

I hope Iriya manages to keep his mouth shut and we don't get too much drama around their relationship getting revealed some time in the future. Still, there's only 12 chapters left so I guess this has to wrap up somehow. Hopefully the TL can keep up the pace for the remaining chapters and finish this series without going months between each chapter.

Narita drowning his sorrows with ~~alcohol~~ water. Glad to see his change as a character, really didn't like him in the beginning.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

I can see why the TLs said they weren't a fan of this arc with the slightly forced double love rival thing going on. It's a bit tedious when every chapter there's seemingly progress, and then it ends on a "but what about the other girl/guy" vibe.

Pretty sure this statement breaks multiple laws of manga.

Maybe being cute isn't that unbeatable...?

It's a bit of a tough read in the beginning as Ichikawa is extremely edgy and chuuni. But, he mellows out pretty quickly and has great character growth through the series. I really recommend reading it if you're into school romcoms, it's pretty light on the drama. The chapters are short, but packed with a lot of easily overlooked small details.
