Final chapter TL is up.

The end.

>>281775223
>>281775325
So the spin off was just the author trying to fix that lackluster ending? I think it is fine for what it is.
Thanks for the dump anon!

>>281775027
shes so cute

>>281775338
It's great to see what Kou and Anko were up to during the timeskip but it makes it even more obvious that the manga ended way too abruptly since it still doesn't give a good conclusion to the rest of the cast or Kou and Nazuna's relationship.

>>281776487
Yeah they spent the final part of the story all about what would happen with Nazuna and Kou considering their situation and it ends with nothing. One thing is an open ending and another is just not concluding the story.

Honestly, I would just go with Nazuna finding a "half-human" transformation to Kou's half-vampire and that way they can be together.

I need those toes in my mouth

>>281775325
Thanks OP

>>281774905 (OP)
up

forgot this was a thing, how was it?

>>281775223
NAZUNA, FUCK YEAH!!!

>>281775325
Thank you for posting, OP.

Thoughts on Nazuna X Kou?

>>281774905 (OP)
I liked this after story better than the whole series

>>281776768
And afaik this was never in danger of being axed so either Kotoyama always planned for this ending (which makes him two for two for inconclusive endings) or just didn't know how to continue so he decided to call it quits before stretching the story beyond the original scope which isn't a bad idea but not as a last resort for lack of creativity. Hopefully his next work doesn't suffer the same fate YnU and Dagashi Kashi had.

The ending is super conclusive, what more do you need?

Good arc. Needed more Nazuna though. Wish we got a few chapters of them at least instead of four pages.

>>281786594
5 pages

>>281784750
>>281786409
Yeah, I think the manga stretched a lot after Mahiru's death and they didn't address the half vampirism stuff except for confirming to be kind of permanent since Kou still has it even after years of Nazuna not drinking his blood. The whole deal with Nazuna being different than the other vampires by being born as one with a human father could be explored a lot more and if she ran away afraid of drinking Kou's blood, why in the epilogue they're fine with her drinking his blood bags? Just afraid of losing control even though she never did that and Kou can overwhelm her as half vampire?

Honestly, I just wish we didn't have the half vampire stuff at all. It wasn't needed to solve Kiku's arc. It just added pointless battle shonen for some reason and making Nazuna more of a pushover. I would like it better if Anko searched and had more "anti-vampire" methods, traps and stuff sharing with Nazuna and Kou if they wanted more confrontations with Kiku, the Yakuza vampire and not-Shermie. And either the story ends with or right after Kiku's death or more exploration on Nazuna's nature. Or fuck it and have a happy ending with Nazuna turning human if Kou can turn into a half vampire.

But I wouldn't mind more detective stuff of the duo (or with Nazuna added) focusing on vampire cases.

>>281787177
I don't think the half-vampire stuff was bad as a concept but it together with Nazuna being a natural born vampire were so underdeveloped that make you question what was the point beyond making the main pair more special.

Woah, her dad has telekinesis?

>>281783300
I kinda get why.

>>281790423
Well, he was already a vampire by then, right? Some cars have automatic doors

>>281774998
Lmao no

>>281793312
Well the only 40 year old women he knows looks like 12. How old is Anko/Kyoko in this epilogue?

>>281794899
31

>>281792371
would like more of it but seems like he kinda bailed on this series so hm,

the new chapter of Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku has been released and the truth about what coused the animosity between schools which is the core plot of the series has been revealed

>>281795325
Damn, I was sure she was in her 30s during the series. Cigarettes and depression really takes destroys your body.

>>281797230
she's 28 i the series I think?

>>281797288
She turns 28 at the very end of her arc since her birthday is on Halloween.

>>281774998
That's exactly what a hag would say.

>>281775325
I guess with this extra arc's ending it confirms that the author wanted. He could have retconned the ending the ending and made Kou a full vamp (not like he doesn't add new shit without caring for the past lore all the time).
This ending is OK, it still just feels like getting blueballed.
This arc itself was pure filler, it added nothing to the story.

>>281798930
>it added nothing to the story.
It explained how Kou found Nazuna in the epilogue. That clue that Shio gave them about a vampire paradise was what helped them find Nazuna in Siberia or something. But it was a side story to expand the influence that vampires have in that world. Honesly I would like more of that with the adventures of Anko and Kou. Maybe name it "Kyouka and Kou P.I." or KKPI.
I don't think the author ever intended Kou to become a vampire. The half vampirism was already a copout.

you guys might call me a pleb but i got extremely extremely filtered by the first few episodes because of the slow pace and boring talk between the two of them
does it actually get better? I'm hearing genuine praise for 2nd season

>>281800217
It has a lot of talk and only gets a bit more action with the gyaru vampire showing that vampires can be deadly. It's only at the end of the first season when the Detective shows up that it gets more serious and now season two is all about her being an antagonist to the vampires. And of course she's a fan favorite. Enough to share this side series/spin off with the MC here.

Well, I'm one that loves the chemistry between Kou and Nazuna. Even the vampires have a gossip group teasing them. So the slow pacing is far from being a negative point for me.
But the direction of both seasons are pretty great at capturing the "night life" the series portray and does a good job when shit gets serious with colors and music. Well unless you're a fan of tall girls, you'll probably like the adaptation.
It's rare to have an OP so on point like this one for the season 2.
Too bad I feel the story starts falling apart after this arc and the story ends kinda underwhelming/"unfinished" like we're complaining here

A lot of taxis in Japan did when I was there

Nazuna cute

>>281774998
The whole manga's message is
>women in their forties still got it

the girls in this manga are very cute

>>281803838
Every Nazuna is cute.

>>281805995
She was fun

You really won't like urban fantasy Manga, they always left a bunch of those unresolved. It happens in all of them because that is part of the lore

>>281800469
>story ends kinda underwhelming/"unfinished" like we're complaining here
You are the only one complaining the story ends perfectly fine, for some reason you want answers for stuff that was made to be left without an answer
