Thanks OP!

Hara has not been seen since chapter 111.
It has now been 61 chapters since her last appearance. In that time, four volumes have been released. She has gone 36% of the manga's current length without being seen. Since chapter 111's release it has been 30 months.
This page was the last time Hara appeared in the manga.

always interesting when stuff like this happens for early side characters

>>280467578
run Ichikawa!

>>280470195
Pfff. No water off his back. Why lament the dry-aged steak when he can take home a prime cut.

>>280471239
Forgot pic.

>>280470890
Yamadad would pull off a great Jason Vorhees or Leatherface on Halloween.

>>280467677
Was he really going for NTR?

>>280467677
>>280467654
We don't know how the 3 of them managed to get to the restaurant. But I bet that was expecting to eat some oyakodon, lmao.

>>280472198
>"Sorry sir, we don't serve that here."

>>280472198
that would have been some prime oyakodon

>>280468721
This is also when the whole thing started declining in quality.

>>280472604
>before the song chapter
>before the condom
>before the spiderman kiss
Nah.

>>280467677
>WEEEEELL

>>280472654
Declination is a process. We are now here with NTR-bait and "muh family".
This story is spinning its wheels and has no legs. It needed a timeskip a long time ago, because it's collapsed under the working middle schooler and endless test prep shit.

>>280472844
The story has been progressing at the same pace it's always has, if not faster, this is significantly less ntr than anything nanpai-related and ichikawa interacting with yamada's family has always been some of the best chapters. Literally every single thing you've said is wrong.

>>280472844
>it needs a timeskip

>>280473019
You're probably too dumb to get this, but:
The developmental growth of the characters stalled, my man. Paisen pushed growth in a comedic fashion, this shit now is platitudes towards insecurities that middle schoolers shouldn't be expected or try to rise above. It no longer makes any sense narrative wise with regards to the age of its participants.

>>280473421
>they develop too slowly
>they should not be developing this hard
That's a lot of words, but I dont think you know what you're talking about.

>>280471266
>cute sidecharacterussy
He WON.

>>280473554
They stopped developing logically as part of a cohesive narrative about this stage of life.
They started being authorial setpieces to make statements about adult life.

This was a middle schooler story. It isn't anymore.
It should be put to bed.

>>280473690
What statements are they making about adult life that are logically inapplicable to the the stage of life they are presiding in, anon?

>>280473796
>Career
>Family
>Sexual insecurity
>Self-control
Kids should be kids. Someone needs to shake these kids and tell them that life isn't only a series of goals to work towards.
Have fucking fun, make mistakes. This is just typical "no fun allowed" Japanese slave mentality.

>>280473690
I still don't understand what you are trying to say there anon. If there is some arbitrary cutoff for when their relationship stops being reflective of the transitional period between being teenagers and adults, I've yet to see it. They are still breaking through their personal barriers and dealing with their lives, relationships and the world around them changing as they are growing up. In particular, Ichikawa's fear of failiure is a driving force behind his entire character. It's what got him into the deep funk at the start of the series, it's what's been driving him away from Yamada for the longest time. The series is themed around his recovery, going as far as to theme chapters as patient cards.
I want to see him succeed in his struggle, gain self-worth and grow up into a well adjusted person, that is why it is genuinely heartening to see him try, interact with others and learn from them. I do not want the story to skip ahead to where he has magically solved all his problems off-screen, it's something the story itself makes fun of and for a good reason. There's still plenty of room left to see how Ichikawa and Yamada will be handling the challenges of growing up, how they will handle growing more intimate and what will choices they will ultimately make and I hope those will be shown, not implied.

>>280473947
In other words you are missing the times when could just hang out in the library and goof around, but instead of growing up and accepting that things change you just want everything to end and move on.

>>280473947
>Kids should be kids
You can't take the cavemen out of the human with capitalism.

>>280474234
Very well said. The anon you're replying to is a retard.

>>280467677
Thank you for posting and typesetting.

>>280474234
They are 100% going to have a shotgun wedding.

>>280472385
Makes sense, it's a french restaurant.

>>280477382
They may serve chicken francese though.

>>280474234
The problems you're talking about have already been dealt with. He overcame them in the scene after he broke his arm. What we are seeing is him doing practical things and interacting with people where he repeats the same lesson of open expression, while Yamada has barely any growth at all. The shift after the relationship, if not a time skip, should've been towards Yamada developing.
>>280474289
I don't like seeing an author sabotage their own narrative due to their attachment to their characters.

>>280474234
>The series is themed around his recovery, going as far as to theme chapters as patient cards.
Anon, the karte thing is also a call to his autopsy fetish.

>>280478204
>He overcame them in the scene after he broke his arm
Not even close. In that arc the only thing he finally accepts is that he wants to go out with Yamada. In fact it's very odd that you think that moment was so crucial when a volume later it's where he finally starts to accept himself, but still it's not as easy as an overnight realization so it's still a process.

>>280467677
Imagine thinking your'e gonna get some hot milf pussy only to come face to face with her nephilim husband.

>>280478716
No, he acknowledges himself and exposes himself to her. That's the turning point, because everything up until then had been him hiding. Then he has to work his way to pushing himself to be better at acknowledging his strengths, which culminates in the speech. Now, the pacing slowed and the same thing is playing out over and over while he endlessly studies, which will be repeated in highschool, because this is the author's meal ticket. it's really that simple, but you are driven to justify it because you can't let go yourself.

>>280479118
>which culminates in the speech
I disagree but
>but you are driven to justify it because you can't let go yourself
That's all I have to hear, at least you admit that the discussion is going to go in circles.

>>280479350
Sure, it's a matter of how you like stories to flow. I'm just not the kind of person who wants more for more's sake. I really love this manga anyway, I just feel it has overstayed its welcome.

>>280472844
>almost high school arc
>It needed a timeskip

>>280467677
This is still not cool.

>>280483515
you're saying it's hot then?

>>280483012
>>almost high school arc

>>280467677
Thanks, anonsito.

This manga used to be good before it became wish fulfillment garbage

>>280484259
did you actually think it was gonna be about a loner killing the popular girl at school

>>280484259
what wish is being fulfilled here? being a japanese herbivore dating a vapid attention whore?

>>280484259
You seem to be really upset today anon.

>>280472844
>>280473019
We already had like 5 month timeskip where both leads barely talked to eachother besides phonecalls.

>>280484985
It was more like two months.

>>280467654
>>280467677
She was gonna cuck him but didn't know he'd be there, she just adapted quickly.

>>280488064
NTR is rotting your brain.

>>280488115
Everything leading up to this part suggests that Yamada dad suddenly decided to go on a whim. They also didn't they talk to each other. How would she know?

>Denied NTR and Oyakodon Kino with Yamada and her mom
I hope the doujins deliver then...

>yeah let's take my daughter along with the guy I'm gonna cheat on my husband with to my husband's restaurant that's full of people that know me after it's closed down to the public
Maybe this is the sort of retarded logic that'd make sense in one of your cuck doujins, but this ain't it.

>280488227
>oh no, i got cucked out of the cuck fantasy that was never gonna happen, i hope someone can draw it for me...
you cannot possibly say this unironically, it's so pathetic

I feel like Ichikawa needs something more expansive than just studying for exams since Yamada has a literal career to pursue. Like this is the point where if he was a sports club character he could be training and have an entire extra world of socialization beyond her. An art prep school is the same sort of thing. But he's just an aimless student.

Anna's mom has got it going on

>>280467578
even after they played vidya together ichikawa still thinks yamadad wants to murder him

>>280489215
>But he's just an aimless student.
Welcome to Japan.
Besides, we know he is figuring out what he wants to do.

>>280467610
it's heartwarming and wholesome how much yuki's staff likes him

>>280489215
He wants to be a politician right? Can't really do more than just studying to prepare for that.

>>280467491
YABBA DABBA DOOOOOOO

>>280489215
that's how it works in japan, if he gets into the elite high school he has a shot at tokyo u and will land a big ticket corporate job afterwards

>>280484570
Surely there aren't people who took his edgy inner monologues seriously and thought he was a psycho and not just an edgy chuuni?
No one can be that retarded right?

>>280488182
If she intended on cheating she would take Ken literally anywhere other than the restaurant her husband works at- you don't take an affair partner to a place where you 100% know people who know your husband will be. Considering Yamadad wasn't the least bit surprised to see her there they either planned on meeting up there after the wrap party the whole time or she texted him saying she was going there when Ken was hitting on her.

>>280489866
You're talking about people who probably take their own edgy inner monologues very seriously.

>>280467464
>>280467511
I like how Yamada just immediately called Ichikawa when she faced that problem but I wonder if they'll talk abou the huge elephant in the room about the scenes for the next season as how Yamada is clearly unconfortable about it.
I can see Yamada feeling guilty over doing those scenes since she probably would go nuclear if Ichikawa did something like that with Moeko during a school stage play.

SOON

>>280467454 (OP)
When does sister's spin-off start?

>>280493120
Next week, I think?

>>280493120
Silly anon, have you already forgotten? Her romcom wont start.

>>280493120
its going to be so hot seeing her as a girlfailure

>>280489837
I thought he wanted to be a teacher/writer?

>>280494006
He's only ever expressed interest in autopsy or criminal profiling.

>>280489837
>>280494006
He doesn't really have a job in mind, now that I think about it. Which is fine, he's still a middle schooler going into high school

>>280467454 (OP)
We need more JS girls in pencil skirts

We need more Ichi x mama Yamada scenes. Apart from that time she got drunk, all we get are Yamada getting along with Kanna and Ichikawa with her papa.

>>280495335
You forgot Ichi's parents.

>>280495063
She’s a JC though

>>280467677
