Marry Mami hard.

>>282133830 (OP)
They will never make me hate her.
Choriputa a shit.

Mami is high IQ confirmed.

Choriputa a backstabbing cunt.
Rucute and Mamibased were right.

>>282135049
Mamibest a cute.

wheres the episode

CR laid off a bunch of people and they've been spilling their spaghetti ever since.

>>282136168
Great...

Every chapter continues to prove that Mami was right.

Why is she the villain of the story again?

>>282136605
She, like Ruka, threatens the integrity of everyone’s favorite ship by just existing. Just like Ruka.

>>282134325
Ruka a shit
Mini and Mami a best

The daddy thing's a self contained shit.
Chapter doesn't have a number.

>>282136749
It seems Mini's saying things fans across all media say: that Kazuya shall self improve and shit.
She sure is a mouthpiece, and i'm positive all that self grinding Kazuya will do will be rendered fruitless.

Daaamn. Mini got the malicious lower chin closeup. She's hiding her true intentions.

>>282137255
Bruh, she has the audacity to complain and get slightly disgusted by the kiss??
The nerve.

Maybe this would be the time to run away? You can’t force a rental horse to drink water if she doesn’t want it.

OH FOR FUCK'S SAKE

>>282137370
Damn, imagine if Chizuru yields to Umi just because he happened to go for the kill in a moment of weakness for her.

>>282137222
This doesn't look like the face of someone who is wholeheartedly supporting him getting the girl, but the kind of girl who thinks
>geez I wish he loved me as intensely as he loves her

Mami's toes.

>>282137502
If it happens then for fuck sake just let Kazuya have Mini at this point, that being said, it would be an insane move on Reji's part to actually have Umi and Chizuru start dating, narratively speaking, that's it for Chizuru and Kazuya, despite everything Kazuya did, simpish or actually noble, this is what Chizuru chose and outside of the story there's no way the last few remaining fans will be able to hang on, so the axe will swing down.

>>282137179
>>282137255
>He's going to continue not talking to her and instead talk to this cosplay bitch while she reaches out to other men
Save me from this goddamn hell.

>>282137440
But it's Mini. She only knows part of the story and twists it to make it more sympathetic.

>>282137255
Imagine this is Mini actually falling for this goofy ahh >>282137222

>>282137370
Soon(tm)

No matter what Reji does, there's no recovery to be made if Chizuru and Umi start dating, no fake BS, no "dating just to help with acting" but unironically dating without any clock and dagger nonsense, if he does that then even those stubborn and delusional fucks over in the reddit sub will finally stop coping, but like, if Reji's end goal is still to have Chizuru and Kazuya get into a relationship it's going to be a joke of an ending.

>>282136666
>everyone’s favorite ship
People still on board for chizuru after all the shit she’s done? I feel like literally any other girl is a better match for Kazuya. I know he’s got it bad for her but man. I foolishly thought that her rejecting him finally would be the end of it.

>>282137691
>>282137766
Why are you posting Mami? Don't you hate her for sabotaging Kazuya's life?

>>282137534
Even if she doesn’t surely she realizes his love life is none of her business…right? She should just give up on trying to make Ruka unhappy.

>>282137817
>Don't you love her for sabotaging Kazuya's life?
Yes

>>282137817
Not one bit.

Honestly Kazuya just needs to crash out, he needs to stop being so kind to Chizuru and fucking crash out at her, rant like crazy and then start dating Min
>B-But Ruka
No, she's no good for Kazuya, anyway, Kazuya needs to rant, point everything he did for Chizuru even if he was acting like an idiot and then point out how she barerly repaid him for all of that, go full scorched earth and then be the one to block her, if it fails he can just breed Mini and if it succeeds then Chizuru will at first be stubborn but then the cracks will form and she'll start messing up her acting until she she crawls to Kazuya, people like Chizuru only realise their mistake when the thing or person they thought they had under control slip out from under their grasp, she freaked out when she thought Ruka and Kazuya had sex so imagine how she'll feeel if Kazuya straight up tells her he's going to have his way with Mini's body.

>>282137916
>Honestly Kazuya just needs to crash out, he needs to stop being so kind to Chizuru and fucking crash out at her, rant like crazy and then start dating Min
Soon.
The inevitable event is a serious Kazuya and Chizuru kenka.

>>282137222
Why the sudden change in tone here? Could it be that he's finally remembering to write her as human?

>>282138008
>Why the sudden change in tone here? Could it be that he's finally remembering to write her as human?
Malicious second intentions. She realized she'll have to pick his remains once Kazuya's most critical moment happens.

Ruka's a bitch.

>>282137817
Not at all. Mami has a good head on her shoulders. And as does Ruka. He should be with one of them.

>>282138062
>she'll have to pick his remains
If that's so I fear she's steering into a shipwreck.

You know what fuck it, let Chizuru and Umi date, have a timeskip where Kazuya just turns hollow, he goes along with Ruka on their "dates" but Ruka eventually gives up seeing how broken Kazuya is, then one day Kazuya is just absently walking through the rain, bumps into Mami and then you're expecting Mami to have another moment of mocking Kazuya but then she calmly takes him out of the rain and takes him home and sleeps with him, literally, just climbs into his bed and cuddles him, around this time Chizuru realises she misses her little paypig simp so she tries to reach out to him by going to his apartment only to be blocked by Mami who refuses her entry, Chizuru tells Mami not to interfere between her and Kazuya and she gives that dumb smile, says something that makes Kazuya crash out as he basically tells Chizuru to fuck off and leave and then Chizuru gets her own 218 moment except this time the sex is real as Mami and Kazuya start having sex.

>>282137798
>I foolishly thought that her rejecting him finally would be the end of it.
It is but just like all of Mizuhara’s supporters and their jester Mini they don’t know the meaning of the word: no.

The only thing left to complete this series is an axe and a rushed ending, it would be the perfect finale to this trainwreck.

>>282137222
If it wasn't obvious before that Mini has feelings for Kazuya, it should be obvious now. Shame some people will still be in denial about it.
I think what people aren't getting is that Mini, despite the appearance of being the "voice" of the viewers, is actually pretending to try to get them together. In reality she knows she's setting up both of them for failure. And when that happens she can comfort Kazuya on her own. At least that's her plan.

>>282137595
More like it will kill chorizo character for real.
From being a stern girl with her choices even on her hardest moments (granny dead and renkano job outed) to someone softer than Sumi.
But with the whole "be a better man" bs I can see Reiji killing chorizo character for the sake of kekzuya development and maybe to make mini a love interest.
It will break the internet, again, but we know the jp does not give a fuck.
On the other hand >>282136992
>>282137046
Is EL PADRAZO namek coming?

Explain why Mizuhara deserves a relationship with Kazuya in 5 words. I’ll wait.

>>282137370
People are speculating that she's calling Umi to properly reject him but I'm not entire sure, it's left completely ambiguous. And if Kazuya is allowed to hang out with a cute girl all the time in Mini (PLATONIC BTW) then why can't Chizuru do the same with Umi? (PLATONIC BTW). Doesn't seem fair now does it?

>>282138508
She honestly doesn't, but Reji won't let Kazuya be with anyone else, he must simp endlessly for Chizuru until either Reji gets tired of this series or the axe swings down.

>>282138541
>People are speculating that she's calling Umi to properly reject him
Lol, lmao even, I'm guessing this speculation came from reddit? If so they're fucked.

>>282138570
Reddit, twitter, facebook, online spaces. If she's recalling the kiss and Umi had confessed to her before, and she's trying to take care of all loose ends before dating Kazuya (in their theory) then she needs to call him to properly reject him. Then later have Kazuya do the same with Ruka.
For me I'm just observing this development and I have very minimal, if at all, expectations for the next 4 weeks. Whatever happens next week will be subverted the following week anyway, and again... and again.

What will Reji's career look like after this and that stebsibling series is finished? Will people even trust him with another series?

>>282138508
Neither deserve dating each other.

>>282138615
I dunno man, I just don't have any faith in anything Reji does, speculation is pointless so as long as Reji refuses to allow Chizuru and Kazuya to commuinicate and instead continue this cat and mouse routine.

>>282138415
Only if vol. 43 or 44 ends selling sub 10k the 1st week.
>inb4 the axe plot is Kazuya having a psychotic delusion thinking if he murders the core of Chizuru's issues, she'll start to heal herself, so he decides he's going to find El Tío, i mean, El Papá, kill him, and makes it his definite purpose in life. To make the movement easier, and given he'll have a car, he ends manipulating and using Ruka as an accomplice (after pushing Mini, Sumi and Mami away thinking they are gonna be better without him, he uses Ruka bc she's obsessed, and needa her to see his worst self so she finally gives up), but she finds out the true reason and calls Chizuru to stop him.
However, Chizuru doesn't thank him, but calls him out and tells him the most hurtful words: did i ask you to bring my dad and take revenge for abandoning me without asking me first? Don't want to see your face anymore. Sayonara.

>>282138449

He'll have to embrace his inner Ryou and start doing shit for seinen audience (be it yanmaga, yanimal or yanjan, if Shueisha scouts him to save YJ from having to extinct its physical publishing).
His worst mistake was publishing kanokari in a shounen mag.

>>282137179
You can start by not simping for her 24/7 and have some hobbies where you can actually relax

>>282136749
>>282119560
Mini's ass is smaller than Chizuru's, even.
>>282136791
Hot.

El Padre will appear as a worthless bum who's struggling for cash, he will see how successful Chizuru is and will force her into trying to give him money, Kazuya will eventually see this (after a few chapters of Kazuya spying on Chizuru and El Padre believing El Padre is just an ojisan Chizuru is secretly dating because Reji needs Kazuya to stay dumb) and intervne and El Padre will start beating him up, Kazuya will wake up in hospital with Chizuru by his bedside and give that one trope speech about how Kazuya staying near her will just lead to him getting hurt, a few more chapters of Chizuru trying to cut him off, a few more chapters of Rukashit and Mamishit and then finally Chizuru finally agrees to go out with him.

Have you guys seen the dub scene of Kazuya jacking it?
He just says "mommy" over and over it's hilarious and awful

>>282136684
Delusional

>>282138890
But enough about Ruka.

>>282136966
>kasumi
>long name
huh? aren't most japanese names 2-3 syllables long?

>>282138818
when you have a oneitis shit does really look like this

Made some stitches.

Just had a thought? What if this what Reji has wanted all along? What if Reji wants fans to give up on Chizuru? Slowly and slowly more and more places are turning on her, what if Reji wants this to happen?

>>282139211
Really wish Ruka had longer hair because if she did the competition between Ruka and Chizuru would be a lot closer.

>>282137726
He threw the warnings before Obon.

So it's a matter of when will he begin the 3rd kanoimpact. Not a how, anymore.

>>282138615
Both kazuya fags and ntr fags are forgetting her recent acting job which will take weeks of her time to focus on
Is the whole fucking reason Mini and Kekzuya held a strategic meeting.
Chorizo dating Umi will make the recent development - ghosting arc 2: electric bugaloo - total bs.
Something will come from Chizuru meeting Umi (but since is Reiji, the chance it could be a nothing burger is also high) but I dont think is NTR shit nor "breaking ties for a confession" either.
Moreover, next chapter could be rejection tier fuzz depending how is displayed.

If Mami was trying to ruin your life, how would you deal with her?

Last stitch.

>>282139635
Cherish and love her, give her a family, stay with her every day, I would slowly and slowly chip away at her guards, until she stops trying to hurt me and then I will fake my death and watch her sob over me.

>>282139071
She was always a hooker with 100 boyfriends. The needle has not moved.

The systematic shrinking of Ruka's tits has been a disaster for this story

>>282139071
Nah. Reiji isn’t that clever. Chizuru is his true love and he is setting up a situation where in the end she changes her mind right at the last second and asks for the ring back. The moral of the story? Never take no for an answer and don’t respect a woman’s wishes to not want to date you. If she doesn’t want you change her mind by bettering yourself and in a month and a half she will be head over heels for you. Literally.

What happened to the prediction where Kazuya’s mom yells at him after he comes back with the ring?

Goddamnit /a/ did you lie to me again?

July 11th reads as 7/11.

7-eleven is a very famous konbini franchise.

Kazuya's internship will be as a konbini manager trainee on a 7-eleven store about to closedown due to financial disbalances and his goal is gonna be spare it from its fate and keep operating. Mini is gonna be the middle man that makes Kazuya and his supervisor have the meeting that will define Kazuya's career path and future. Kazuya's internship will also be another shameless sponsorship deal

>>282139790
Chizuru has been nerfed as well. Both Ruka and Chizuru are supposed to be busty as fuck and now they have smaller boobs.

God i love mami so much

>>282139891
>/a/
>Right about predictions for this series
Reji will keep playing with everyone, even this latest NTRbait will lead to nothing that NTR fags actually want, he'll give both sides of the spectrum just enough breadcrumbs to keep interest in this series maintained.

She's evil as fuck...

>>282139071
You are years late. 2 outcomes are possible, nothing else
>million chapters later Kazuya and Chizuru finally will be a couple for real
or
>open ending cause Chizuru is Reiji's waifu and Reiji preends she is the readers' waifu as well. Kaz get no canon woman just a hopeful tease

>>282140219
That second option feels more possible than ever lately, Reji won't ever allow Kazuya to be happy with another woman and likewise he can't have Chizuru's paypig simp be "stolen" by another girl.

>>282137046
>BEGIN daddy issues arc

>>282140279
>200 more chapters of Chizuru avoiding Kazuya
>50 chapters for more Mini and Kazuya meetings
>50 chapters of Ruka shit
>50 chapters of Mami shit
>Finally the last 50 chapters have Chizuru come clean, El Padre showing up and Kazuya helping Chizuru solve her feelings for her deadbeat dad
>She still refuses to go out with Kazuya after this

>>282139990
Cant tell whether its shitposting or just another Reiji partnership

>>282136805
>I won't get in the way of her work!
So does he plan to give up if she gets more offers?

>>282140219
The third option is Mini realizing her feelings because her position as Kazuya’s biggest platonic defender is seriously in question. I do not believe an open ending is a possibility at this point.

>>282140326
>Kanokari 7-eleven partnership
Niwatori may as well conquer the world

In the middle of watching but I just don't get how Mami is even a "heroine" like the other girls. Kazuya has shown 0 love or interest in Mami for multiple seasons now. It feels like they wanted to write her out but couldn't

>>282138768
>character development,
nah, this anon is correct >>282136778 this will be Reiji being a troll and nothing he'll do will matter

>>282140442
At least she drives the plot forward

Animation took a hit this episode. They looked goofy half the time.

>>282140442
The bare minimum to be a heroine in Kanokari is to go on a date with the protagonist which after Hawaiians she later did.

>>282140396
Stop forcing Mini every thread. It's not going to happen.

>>282140493
Oh I love the bitch, it's just that they needed to show Kazuya still had any interest in her for this to work.
>>282140536
What. Not like a flashback or something?

>Have a deadbeat father that left your mother to die with you

>>282138960

>>282137090
I still call the whole "doesn't believe in real love" bullshit since she lived with her grandparents that were always lovey dovey.

This is some try-hard attempt to make her more like Mami.

>>282137179
>I gotta simp even harder
dude it didn't work for 2 years

>>282140697
>Wtf is wrong with Chorizo?
She's throwing more foreshadows about Kasumi not being le saint, but a JAV actress who died on her own terms.
Zuru blaming her mom for the severance may have a lot to do with her mom being le STD devil vessel and cucking El Padre with ikemen actors.

>>282140825
No. Face it, anon, Mini is not special. She isn't above anyone else in the rebound bowl no matter how many wishful thinking posts you make.

>>282136992

>>282140957
I'm going to be honest with you if I asked Ruka to have sex with me I'm 99.9999% sure she'd say yes.

>>282140912
Chizuru also was popular, so I guess she also is a slut.

>>282137370
nooooooooooo not him chizuru you fucking bitch don't NTR kazuya

Ruka won

>>282140912
Literally.
Kasumi being a JAV actress and the foreshadowings being a couple of JAV DVDs Kazuya rented to beat his goose were already warning it.

Be glad editors are not bothering Niwatori and his power position in the mag, and simply letting him to publish this plot in a shounen magazine. Otherwise, if this arc was done by another mangaka, it's very likely he'll have to take his work into a seinen mag

>>282140962

We've still got another 5 years of this fucking series haven't we?

>>282140951
>his efforts will culminate in being let down again
In other news, water is wet, the sky is blue, and Chizuru will always reject Kazuya.

>>282137592
Nice and suckable.

I want to lick Mami's navel, in public as she weakly punches me in protest while blushing fiercely.

Is your IQ 78?

Whoever told boys that they could go to jail for so much as speaking to a girl unless they were spoken to first, but also told girls that they are absolutely forbidden from expressing their true feelings about anything even if it would save their life, is guilty of crimes against humanity to a degree that not even Tanya could compete

>>282140904
She has better chems with Kazu than the whole girls cast.
That ironically places her above the other bitches.

>>282140961
He's gonna attempt murder on Zuru's dad and stop once he says his version of the story.
This arc, if Zurupapa appears, has high chances to include a flashback namek.

>>282141396
This but unironically

So, mama had Chizuru at 19yo...
If she was aluve, then she and Fumi would have been great friends.

>>282141956
That only happens because Kazuya thinks that she will help him with Chizuru, Kazuya would never talk to Mini about non-Chizuru related stuff

>>282138541
She sent the text at 21:08. It might be a reference to chapter 218 (THAT chapter) and considering she's gonna meet Umi it would be savage. I hope it happens.

>>282142136
Just realized Kazuya bawled like a fucking newborn baby there lol lmao rotf.
If he sees 218 irl, he'd end just like shinji after seeing Eva 02's corpse: screaming

>>282142023
lies, she takes her hygiene seriously and brushes her teeth after every client.

>>282142213
Ruka has the worst hygiene. She gives me a vibe of not knowing how to use a toothbrush.
Although Yaemori may be the slobbiest one. She lives surrounded by cockroaches and trashbags.

>>282142023
weird how Chizuru's breath smells like Mami's ass

>>282142442
>Mami's ass
She religiously wipes and pafums it.
So it may smell like Power flowers.

>>282142442
Nah. Mami's ass smells nice.

That's an excellent question.

Yeah, yeah, but it's Kazuya that has to hear this.

>>282141122
Even the distributors are forcing this meme.

unquestionable best girl

>>282143720
you think that would stop him?

>>282143890
I mean there's a reason why the manga reached meme status. Them getting together will have no emotional impact.

>>282137122
I knew it, Chizuru was a lesbian this whole time
She's been stringing Kazuya along this whole time because she could never marry her true love who is Nagomi

>Yet, I will not tell him that, because it would be hurtful.
She is just the worst.

>>282144010
>Them getting together will have no emotional impact.

FUCK this psycho bitch

>>282144724
4 seasons of this shit and they failed to animate the one scene that could've possibly justified the 16 hours of runtime it has accumulated. It's impressive how KanoKari never fails to disappoint.

>>282133830 (OP)
I refuse to interact with this anime in any way
"Rent a girlfriend" is the kind of name you give a story if you want me to bully you into giving up writing

>>282145963
It became a social comment against redpillers by making Mini repeat the things people in yt, fb, plebbit, xitter and tiktok keep sayin.
>blablabla, Kuzu shall self improve
>blablabla stop renting and hit da gym
>blablabla get a better job.
But, by making Mini suggest Kazuya shall do those things, it turns into a certified guarantee of all the self improvement for wrong reasons biting him in the ass and making him self destruct.
Zuru likes the fucked up Kuzu who constantly disobeys her advices, not someone who will become Shein Umi.

>>282146201
The haven't animated that scene yet, in comes in October I think

>>282146201
5. Seitokai ni mo Ana wa Aru! 10 — 39,249
6. Rent-a-Girlfriend 41 — 35,843
7. Megami no Cafe Terrace 20 — 32,177
8. A Couple of Cuckoos 28 — 30,956

Not only is Kanokari selling worse than Seitokai, but it's also about to be overtaken by Cafe.

>>282146508
>October
S4 is split-cour, we won't be seeing it until next year.

>>282146545
Based, Cafe is a much better series than Kanokari

>>282146545
>but it's also about to be overtaken by Cafe.
Isn’t cafe ending?

>>282147053
It is, but it could get a final boost because of it. Either that, or Kanokari drops even further.

>I want this whole thing to go boom
>Right here in Fukushima
I think you're about 14 years too late for that.

>>282147275
>but it could get a final boost because of it.
Every series has a final boost for the final tankoubon. Domekano (whose sales were consistent), MDUD, Abyss all had final vol. boosts.

Let's see if Kanokari gets a final boost too or if it's gonna end its period in the total irrelevance. If they announce additional pages for the end or an extra epilogue, then pretty much that will secure a weak boost.

>>282144623
Everybody is used goods in kanokai.

>>282148324
Except Ruka. She's the only virgin.
That could explain why she's a fucking menhera psycho.
This is a virgin-shaming manga after all, written by a male mangaka that writes like a female mangaka

>ruka
>virgin

>>282148585
>Didn't feel shit when being a RaG.
>Customers hurt her feelings by pretending they didn't know her.

>>282148557
> Except Ruka. She's the only virgin.
She worked as a rental girlfriend aka a professional whore.

>>282148557
>This is a virgin-shaming manga
Literally every character except the parents and Mami are virgins, hell Chizuru rejects God's know how many dudes just to prove to the audience that she is a turbo-pure-virgin

>>282149086
>Chizuru
>virgin

>>282140442
When was the last time he showed interest in Mami?

Why does she hate Mami now?

This is Haemori's saga, not Scum or Zuru's saga.
Literally all the chapters, except 386, had the fly in the magapoke thumbnails

>>282146207
Lmao

>>282133830 (OP)
I haven't been reading this manga weekly. I might binge watch and read it again some other day.

I don't trust an anime or manga's reception. All that being said, Mini is the one thing that keeps me peeking in. No matter how bad this might actually be, I really like her.

>>282149532
She's charismatic and is trying her best to help everything be fixed and unpainful as possible. She's the opposite of Chizuru. Chizuru creates problem after problem unnecessarily, Mini wants all drama to end and for everyone to just be happy.

>>282149532
The only problem is that Mini isn't a real person, but a manifestation of readers written by mangaka.

>>282146207
Is it better or worse that the actual title is "I'm gonna borrow a girlfriend"?

>>282147480
>final boost
>kanokari
Reiji just set the stone for another namek
By the time kanokari even starts its final arc more than al half of anons of this board will be gone.

>>282143538
Cute post anon

>>282137146
>>282137179
>>282137222
>>282137255
Reminder that Mini really likes and respects effort.

Does your bookshelf have enough room for 20 more volumes?

>>282134418
IQ 131+ is a fucking nerd that doesnt have pics of herself

>>282150357
That's literally what is said in >130 section (if such person exists).

I Was Lied To: The Manga: The Animation

>>282149947
Her comments about self improvement reeks of Reiji pulling a George Morikawa and mocking his readers by making Mini say all the self improvement redpill word vomit.
The chapter Mini went mental at Chizuru added more details to her backstory context about her being someone who just follows the flow. She does cosplay because friends told her she was good at that, she does raunchy vlogs bc she gets positive feedback from youtubers, but she doesn't feel motivated to do that. She seems to be the obedient type too because she held her mom and childhood senpai's advices at heart. However, for the first time, in 390, she disobeyed them and recognized she was being reckless because of Kazuya. She is alive only when it's about Kazuya.
It's safe to say her human side is the girl who is having the most organic growth of her feelings for Kazuya and this chapter shows how lowkey pissed she is because she wishes Kazuya would direct that enthusiasm for her.

The fact that people think Chizuru is a bitch for not dating Kazuya is kind of soul-crushing. It makes it even more obvious than it already was that women are just viewed as props.

>>282137146
>>282137179
>>282137255
His character development is him simping even harder

>>282150509
The issue isn't her not dating Kazuya, but not having a moment to have a heart to heart and speak honestly, instead doing shit behind his back.
She may have her reasons, but why call Umi of all people right when she thought about the kiss with Kazuya.
This just feels a lot like 500 days of Summer, where if you place the mo ie events chronologically, you can tell the scene where Summer was crying at the movie theatre was a subtle way to show she cucked Tom there and already made her choice.

>>282150527
Simping harder by ghosting her and getting arrogant by sitting on his false sense of victory and misfocusing into self grinding while Chizuru DOESN'T want that.

>>282146545
Seitokai isn’t even scanlated properly how the fuck. I guess the nips have spoken.

>>282146207
I mean it rolls off the tongue and there’s literally a character in the show that does compensated dating. How is the title any worse than 100
Girlfriends or Domestic Girlfriend?

>>282150509
She is not a bitch for rejecting. She is a bitch for throwing mixed signals around while still communicating and dating with her eternal lover Umi. And the worse thing is she has zero respect for everyone around her.

>>282150909
Literally Forrest Gump/500 days of summer/Spider Man 3 all again. Those movies had some of the most realistic written women ever.
One of Reiji's favorite american series is Breaking Bad. Guess what did Skyler do when Heisenberg started to distance and hide his drug empire from her and their children.

>>282142136
>She sent the text at 21:08. It might be a reference to chapter 218 (THAT chapter)
I want to believe, that's quality fucking trolling right there

>>282150428
Nice analysis media understander but this doesn’t forgive why Mini would want to stoop down to his level, I mean Mini has a talent and her friends support that talent, it sounds like a recipe for a successful life to me however for some reason she is unfulfilled. So this would mean she is an empty-headed girl who just gets by and longs for something along the lines of what characters like Kazuya or Ruka have, proving unbeneficially to the audience that being defined by a relationship is the only path forward. If she wanted to see what it was like for someone to put their full heart into something she could just look towards Chizuru but for some reason she clings on living vicariously through this man and not anyone else, maybe implying it’s the first male friend oshi ever that she can look towards that’s important. The male part being key here since she shows absolute diehard support towards him more than any other gacha/gashapon she had in her life.

>>282151577
>The male part being key here since she shows absolute diehard support towards him more than any other gacha/gashapon she had in her life.
There's a wota term for that thing: gachikoi.

>>282149532
I find it retarded that the only topic of conversation between these two is Chizuru. Can’t he develop literally any other organic interactions or traits for these characters?

>>282151761
This is deliberate. Without Chizuru the walking plot device Mini can never interact with Kazuya without people thinking she’s intentionally after his dick. I mean people already think that but as long as she is in mentally ill shipping mode it’s less obvious.

>>282151838
Don't worry, she's already leaking her human side.
She'll kiss Kazuya... and he'll remember why he still has a condom. Maybe she'll do in a way Kazuya will feel at ease and receptive of her advances.
And will happen while drunk.

IS this zombie-drone mode of hers ever explained or occur again?

>aren't I a good girl for not ruining your life?
>tell me I'm good
>praise me
Psychopath.

>>282137286
Jesus christ, she really doesn't know why she did it, does she

>>282152396
She cheated on Umi so now she has to tell him by text.

>>282152396
Reiji doesn't know.

>>282138508
He's the best she deserves.

>>282138619
Shiunji-ke seems to be okay. He'll be fine, he isn't a total hack like Aka of the Axe.

If you think about it, Mami is a "reverse whore", so to speak.
She pretends to not like Kazuya and wants another man, but in reality Kazuya merely needs to assert himself to her and she'll fall in love with him again. Even assuming that Mami never liked Kazuya the first time, she will fall in love again with him if he asserts himself like he does with Chizuru.
Alas, it was not meant to be because of author's vision and all that. Mami will always stay a loser. Now, admittedly, the actual losers are us, the viewers, for reading such cheap soap drama tier manga. It's the Nisekoi meme all over again.

>>282153922
Whatever Kazuya does is irrelevant. Mami is set to marry a guy her father picked for her, and there's no changing that. If anything, Mami should do the smart thing and cut ties with Kazuya. There's absolutely nothing in his life that's worth her time.

>>282140697
To be fair a large chunk of 4chan would instantly come to that conclusion splely because she ended up raising Chizuru alone. The vitriol they have for single mothers is unmatched

>>282137599
>reaches out to other men
If anything she's been reaching out to mini way more. Of all goddamn people she's the only one who really knows about her shitty pre-grandparents childhood and issues

>>282153922
How do you not understand Mami hates Kazuya with a passion and is doing everything she can to destroy him? It is very clear she finds him disgusting and irredeemable.

>>282133830 (OP)
Isnt this the psycho one? No, the only real answer is the black haired girl with a heart problem. She's the best.

>>282154064
She doesn't hate specifically Kazuya. She hates Kazuya's type: those who talks big, but when the time comes they run away with their tail between their legs. The thing is Kazuya didn't run away and that's what confuses Mami later on. With Chizuru's daddy issues and her monologue before the movie arc it seems Reiji wants to draw some paralel between Mami and Chizuru, but it doesn't really work.

>>282133830 (OP)
Chances of her winning?

>>282154244
infinitesimal but still orders of magnitude more than ribbons

>>282154244
Zero, she's used goods with a haunted pussy.

>>282154812
H-haunted?

>>282153814
Let’s be honest. She deserves better than that.

>>282138508
Mizuhara deserves to suffer consequences of her actions and if Kazuya gives up on her now it's fair game.
Her biggest sin is trampling on the terms of service, but it's not like the rental service suffered because of that far from it in fact Kazuya wasted a ridiculous amount on her, but Kazuya getting carried away isn't on her either. She can't get forced to date him if she doesn't want to. She even gave back the stupid ring.

>>282154900
some say she bears the ghost of her former lover’s child

>>282155212
>nooooo not muh sacred terms of service
Show nose

What happened to the AI anon? We ought to see a still of the Kazuya vs Umi showdown next week.

>>282152340
In the end, that was Mini's human side.
The zombie drone mode is when she does everything her friends, mom, senpai and us tell.

>>282154064
This anon didn't read the manga post hawaiians.

>>282155640
that's her only fault

KURIRIN NO KOTOKAAAAAAAAA reference in Mini's new hoodie.
Is this a foreshadowing of her avenging Kazuya's emotional death.

>>282154956
No, they are both awful so they deserve each other

>>282156237
He deserves to be forever tied to Ruka.
She deserves to learn all about the entertainment industry her grandmother avoided.

>>282156432
Her mama may know a lot about the showbiz.
Fragile health my ass, she died of an STD and Zuru resents her for knowing the true reason why zurupapa ran away.
It was NTR, but Kasumi was just doing her job.

horny yaemori arc when

LOVE

>>282156432
>He deserves to be forever tied to Ruka.
No, Kazuya doesn't deserve the girl that actually likes him and that stood by him all the time, specially after he mistreated her so much

>>282157550
She's hot here.

>>282157606
He had been too nice with her despite of feeling an increasing contempt towards her tho.

>>282157606
Ruka's his karma.
"Be careful what you wish for".
He wanted a gf so badly, the hell brought it. Now he'll have to live with the consequences of his desires and make lemonade with that.

https://itest.5ch.net/kizuna/test/read.cgi/wcomic/1755710165
Check pages 7-8.
Someone suggested Niwatori is planning a "BURASTO BAN!" (picrel to make the referrnce easier) event to keep this manga relevant.

>>282157606
>No, Kazuya doesn't deserve the girl that actually likes him and that stood by him all the time
He doesn’t but he has her. Which is more than you can say about any other girl.

>>282158587
Rukucuck's his lowest hell tho.
SCVMzuya is aiming for the highest heaven, just like the other chainsaw incel, SCVMji.

>>282137122
>distrust towards men
It's not a distrust towards men, it's a distrust towards Kazuya in particular.
I'm gonna bet that when they'll finally reveal him it will be like with Mami's ex-boyfriend and he is just another Kazuya.

>#737
The director of the Renkano anime tweeted his displeasure at the removal of his name from the Chainsaw Man compilation lol. Picking a fight with MAPPA is so bad lol.

Lool did Kazuomi Koga work in CSM S1?

>>282157909
You can count on one hand the amount of times Kazuya has been nice to her, meanwhile Ruka has been way nicer towards Chizuru despite having major beefs between them
>>282158361
>Ruka's his karma
This shit makes no sense because all problems that Kazuya have with Ruka could be solve if he broke up with her and because Ruka never had any major negative impact on his life, take Mami for example that lead to to Hawaiians confrontation or Chizuru who ghosted him for months

>>282158935
>if he broke up with her
He did and then she went: "IoI, no" and continues to be his self-proclaimed girlfriend.

>>282137286
Checked the RAWs, Chizuru regretted the kiss lmaoooooo.

>>282152396
>she really doesn't know why she did it
More like she regretted doing it. In the raws she said "あーあ、やっちゃった" ("aaargh, i did it", but in a context of regretting doing something impulsive).
Got vietnam flashbacks to Asuka kissing Shinji and regretting it after comparing RAW vs TL.

>>282158966
>He did
No he didn't, he begged her to break up with her and she declined, he could be the one to break off the relationship but he refuses for unknown reasons

Mami an angel.

>>282159670
>but he refuses for unknown reasons
Because deep down he knows he may give her a legit try if things with Mizuhara go down the shitter.

>>282159752
Kazuya having her as backup is another reason why he doesn't deserve her, I genuinely hope that Kazuya tries to date Ryka seriously only for her to turn him down and break with him

>>282139284
Will the anime adapt the Chizuru cleaning hands scene after she went to the toilet?

>>282160243
It's exactly what's going to happen, the shitstorm that Reji warned fans about Umi kissing Chizuru, them dating or whatever it is will make Kazuya just give up, like he won't get depressed and grow a beard like he did before he'll just float and start letting Ruka do as she pleases because he doesn't care anymore but the moment Kazuya "gives" himself to Ruka will be the moment that Ruka loses interest in him seeing how broken he is and how he's basically using her as a rebound.

Ruka really should breakup with Kazuya, she deserves better and it's obvious that Kazuya is just going to use her after whatever this current drama is going to be, she's too selfless for her own good.

>>282160538
Or ends being the final experience Kazuya needs to go and properly face Chizuru. An experience he rejected during all this time: the experience of letting oneself be loved for once.
Kazuya's all "give, give, give", but he never had taken such love, neither accepted being loved. "Ai/koi suru & ai/koi sareru". To love and be loved.

Basically what Natsuo had to experience after Izu. Be resigned to grow with a "partner" that's on his own mental league 'till he can become in a proper adult that woukd take care of Mizuhara.

>>282160669
>she's too selfless for her own good.
She'll get high on her horse and get carried away if Kazuya accepts her.
The epitome of selfish feelings will take that opportunity to become more arrogant, more selfish, and develop a superiority complex for winning Kazuya, just like that 30yo pedo hag.

Something has to happen, either Chizuru needs to just ride the cock carousel and become an AV actress, date Umi or realise she actually wants Kazuya and goes after him herself, if all else fails just put Kazuya out of his misery.

>>282160538
>but the moment Kazuya "gives" himself to Ruka will be the moment that Ruka loses interest in him seeing how broken he is and how he's basically using her as a rebound.
If this happens I would unironically start recommending Kanokari due to how cathartic it would feel plus I would forgive Reji for every time he has wronged Ruka

>>282161891
It would honestly be a good development, Ruka isn't an idiot, well she is for sticking with Kazuya for this long but if all of a sudden Kazuya starts taking their dates more seriously she's going to know something is, she could just revel in it and accept her victory but she could also realise that's it's all hollow and have a wake up call.

>>282158786
My bet is Chizuru is still hung on Mami's comments about Kazuya. Chizuru stands more to lose from dating Kazuya: if it doesn't work out, she will lose 95% of her friendships with Kazuya's acquaintances on top of her rental job. It's a life changing decision for a young woman with no living relatives.
>inb4 biodad shows up
Imagine the shitstorm.

>>282162117
She overgrew the phase of chasing him bc she chased Mizuhara. She is smitten bc he's hotblooded by nature.

If Ruka lets go of him, then either it's gonna be bc Kazuya became a drifting corpse devoid of all passion, or if he recovers his passion... but directed as a murderlust against El Padre (Mao 2.0: Electric Boogaloo).

>>282133830 (OP)
Holy shit who cares, apex slut manga update?

>>282158786
Mizuhara doesn’t act like she particularly distrusts men. There’s nothing for her to distrust in the first place.

>>282162273
https://mangadex.org/chapter/b95c8757-4f78-48fe-aa3f-539e003e2c8f
tl;dr Akito and Shiina start to slip away after failing to resurrect Gotou's wiener.
Agawa's friend (Shige, the one who called Gotou pathetic) sees him at the rooftop trying to cure his dick she sees him with his pants down and calls him gross. Gotou's dick reacts to the insult, hinting at Gotou developing a humilliation fetish.

>>282162226
If we go further, it's not only that, but Chizuru never grew over her initial negative impression of Kazuya. She still holds a grudge for the 1 star rating and the incel crashout he had.

Are we sure that Nagomi doesn't already know and isn't just waiting patiently for the children to grow up and be honest with her? She's been shown to be nothing if not intelligent and wise and resourceful and competent with computers., and there's no way she wouldn't know more than Mami about her own grandson
But imagine the fallout if when this finally gets axed around chapter 600 she just casually acknowledges that she knew all along and the previous entire saga was completely meaningless

>>282163038
>Chapter 600
Please, not another 200 chapters of this nonsense.

The anime court ends next week, right?

>>282163139
Yes.
2nd cour shall begin on January.

>>282163038
She doesn’t know. She probably doesn’t care that she was lied to as long as her grandson is happy.

>>282163015
>She still holds a grudge for the 1 star rating and the incel crashout he had.
Did Kazuya ever apologize for that? And I don't mean saying sorry and be over with that, I mean a real apology

>>282165031
His way of apologizing is spending more money on her and flooding her with shallow 5 star reviews.

>>282165657
No wonder Chiz hates him

I doubt Chizuru holds a grudge over the 1 star thing. She's an emotionless autist and the author probably doesn't even remember the beginning of the series anymore.

>1 star review
>being hung up on Mami and beating up his friend
I'd forgotten how much different early Kazuya was like. I dunno when Saint Kazuya took over and he became an affable dope incapable of anger. Not sure if deliberate character development or unintentional shift in writing.

>>282166890
easy, it's definitely deliberate, after the beach arc when he falls for her.

>>282167357
Interesting. I barely remember S1 now. Watching it again is on my backlog.

>>282167357
I mean, Kazuya owes his life to Chizuru bc she ended up saving hom from dying. He may have saved her, but she woke up first

Despite my best efforts to find a woman as beautiful as Chizuru, I haven't found her. Even hot cosplayers and models are meh to me. Chizuru is the hottest woman of all time.

>>282168291
Found one... working at a cabaret with private booths. She's very picky about her customers and will reject anyone who's a Kazuya, but if you are Umi, Judai, Omata or a showbiz/organised crime related professional, she'll let you even fuck her raw in her smelly and delicious asshole.

>>282167691
>Kazuya owes his life to Chizuru bc she ended up saving hom from dying.
She caused him to drown in the first place and almost killed herself. She’s supposed to be in his debt yet the story wants to pretend it’s the other way around.

>>282168393
>but if you are...
Then that's impossible, because a real Chizuru wouldn't get with a man unless she knew he was the one.

>>282166890
Early Kazuya was still seething over being dumped via LINE.

>>282168469
>because a real Chizuru wouldn't get with a man unless she knew he was the one.
Or with anyone that could be like a daddy to her.

>>282168633
Only valid cause Kazuya has ever got for making in my opinion

>>282168469
>unless she knew he was the one
She knows that she loves Kazuya and yet she denies him, she's to prideful to fall in love

>>282171975
Ahahahhahahahha.
She simply said she may be in love. In tone with her not liking deliver and receiving sad truths.
Now she regretted kissing him (saying "yacchatta" regarding the kiss is a very bad sign).
She wants a daddy, not a Katsuhito substitute. And there were hints of her finding her grandparents way to display love cringe.
Do the math. Being with Kazuya means she has to be cringe.

>>282171975
>She knows that she loves Kazuya
>”I think…”
>”I might…”
Doesn’t sound like she knows for sure. You could say she thinks…she might…be in love with Umi. There’s no denying how close they are.

>>282152355
i like that look

>>282173653
Nothing has topped the movie arc. But I think it was too good for its own good though considering how the story ended up.

>>282173653
Basically all Kazuru and Kazuya being a chad for once episodes.
This makes me think once Niwatori owns to his own warnings and pulls the kanokari equivalent of a BURASTO BAN-tier event, they will be the ones who will abandon the series.

>>282173907
tbf
Movie Arc is one of a kind even on modern shonen and seinen romance manga.
Dont know for the modern shoujosei romcom scene.

>>282138508
She deserves the worst life has to offer.

.

>>282175339
You can say Kaguya jumping onto the arms of her boyfriend dangling from a moving helicopter was one of a kind but it doesn’t mean it’s perfect. It’s equally absurd to the movie arc for different reasons though.

no way they will adapt cohabitaion namek arc

>Chizuru granny sickly years before S1
>Kazuya grandmother still perfectly fine in S4
Chizuru has no right to turn down Kazuya. Her genes are inferior.

>>282175855
Nah
That kind of shit could be found on average manwhas.
desu, props to hAcKA for not making it as cringe as the manwhas but still cringe for an already Kaguya-sama on a downfall.

>>282175425
I need more of this, just so the anime loses the last remaining good factor about itself.

>>282173653
Makes sense, that is objectively the peak of the story, the fall from grace is after that.

>>282177028
>that is objectively the peak of the story
That is very sad to think about. In another story they would have gotten together by now.

>>282176775
cookedzuru is easily the best thing to happen this season

>>282178581
I hate Chorizo so much.

>>282177643
After they didn't get together after the cheer up date it started to look as if Reiji doesn't want them to get together just to prolong the story. The longer it continues though the harder it will get to excuse them eventually getting together.

It's the Maison Ikkoku problem tbqh. If there's too much drama and emotional baggage involved eventually it becomes hard to envision a couple even wanting to be together.

>>282179207
It was hard to envision them as a couple in the first place and almost 400 chapters later its nearly impossible imo.

>>282179942
why is it impossible

>>282179964
Because they have nothing in common

>>282179207
At least Maison Ikkoku's Kyouko was less bitchy (except during the climax, but she got a comeuppance with Godai's ED and finding out the distrust she felt towards him was mutual).
Chizuru's issue is almost at the level of Asuka (EvaTV). She's regretting kissing him, hinting at her feelings being dirtied by finding cringe her grandparents way to show love . And Kazuya's a memento of the latter. She still didn't get over her grudge against him for the 1-star review and the incel crashout.
Accepting Kazuya means she has to accept being cringe like her grandparents and recognize Kazuya was going under a heartbreak there. But that would represent "death of ego" for her. Before that, she'd rather isolate from everybody in fetus position.

>>282181764
Kyouko being a hysterical angry BPD girl for the last 10 episodes of MI gave me a whyboner

Chizuru kissed him only to find out she can never love him twice. I don’t see a way they can ever get together without her trying to pull away again at some point and she always will do that.

>>282181977
Chizuru kissed him, so that Reiji has an excuse to continue this wretched (love) story. If it ended on her rejecting him it would've circled back to NEETzuya, now we just have him confused and Mini making him even more confused.

The thing is Chizuru was more or less ok with their arrangement she had a substitute family she was getting money, maybe she'll eventually grow feelings for him. Unfortunately before any of that could happen Kazuya grown confident enough to ask her out and we can't have that, that would fuck everything up, she'd have to leave her cushy job, get a real job and probably say goodbye to acting for real. She needed to knock him down a peg or two. Except Kazuya already has a low self-esteem getting brought down more would be cruel, the kiss numbed him to the reality of the situation.
Now with Kazuya out of the way, she is free to do whatever and what a blessing indeed she "suddenly" has another play and needs her actor friend's advice.

>>282182096
We’ve been through this road before and honestly? Mini continuing to goat this relationship on feels artificial. Chizuru herself didn’t even change since the ghosting so maybe her answer was gonna be the same no matter what anyone did. The author is writing a very specific setup involving those three and it might reach the point where one of them (or two) has had enough.

This series is just fucked
Even Chizuru and Kazuya getting after 400+ chapters of BS just doesn't feel right, I used to say Chizuru deserves better but now it's the opposite
Kazuya ending up with Ruka isn't a viable option either, Kazuya has spent too long chasing after Chizuru, so if the worse happens then Ruka will just be a rebound and she see that and reject Kazuya
Mami certainly isn't a good option unless she does a complete 180 with how she treats Kazuya and how she acts
Sumi is mostly just in her spin off now milking that shota
No idea what to make of Mini
Kazuya ending up with an NPC girl is also a fucked ending because he's not really going to change as a character, so the whole series would be pointless
How the fuck is Reji going to end this trainwreck?

>>282178581
kekzuru

>>282182180
What does milking mean? Taking all his money? Sumi wouldn't do that

>>282182178
Kazuya is finally going to snap at Chizuru, I don't mean him snapping and leaving a one star review but full blown rage rant, Chizuru isn't going to block Kazuya, he's going to block her and then Chizuru will have woman moment where she's sad without Kazuya around

>>282182197
She's taking something from him, not money

>>282182200
Will the internet support Kazuya or call him an entitled inkwell?

>>282182226
At this stage in the story? Chizuru seems to be losing fans so this would be the perfect time for Kazuya to snap at Chizuru

Mini is the best. You will learn.

>>282182226
Reddit is already starting to blame Chizuru for being so indecisive and has been wanting Kazuya to confront her about it for quite some time.

>>282182178
>Mini continuing to goat this relationship on feels artificial.
Always did, the whole Shishou shit was cringe since day one, her meddling never, let me repeat NEVER worked, people like to pretend it does, because otherwise they'd have to admit that nothing ever happens in the manga anymore. Even the co-habitation was set up specifically to not progress anything. Only the date mattered and even that was just a belated rejection she supposed to give him after the ghosting.

>Chizuru herself didn’t even change since the ghosting so maybe her answer was gonna be the same no matter what anyone did.
She went to Hawaiians with the intention to end all of it, on her own terms, she took the accursed ring, unfortunately for her Mami fucked her over and didn't let it, she made Chizuru out to be a con artist, which while not far from the truth was never Chizuru's intention and instead of freedom she fell on the same lie again. Regardless her intentions didn't change, she still wanted to end it, but another "unforeseen" event happened with the earthquake, so it again got postponed.

What the cheapest I can rent one of these girls for?

>>282182277
>Always did, the whole Shishou shit was cringe since day one, her meddling never, let me repeat NEVER worked, people like to pretend it does, because otherwise they'd have to admit that nothing ever happens in the manga anymore.

If nothing else it did shed some light into the problem. It proved Chizuru herself is actively resisting to the idea of a relationship and Mini is deliberately looking to do something about it. Everything is plot relevant.

>>282182425
I could tell you she isn't interested in a relationship (with Kazuya) even without Mini. She has a whole monologue about how men are cringe in the chapters that have her backstory.
The paralel Kazuya has with her grandpa never was romantic in nature it was about how both believe in dreams and how she will reach her dream and we already know she will.

The thing that unsettles me is how now Reiji tries to use the same card with Chizuru he did with Mami.
How now Chizuru's dad will be as much of a stand for Kazuya as Mami's ex was. This will make it impossible for him to ever break her iron wall.

This year's chapters have made me wonder if Chizuru is just a bad person. I've never thought that before.

>>282182543
You've made more progress than Kazuya with this post alone. I'm proud of you anon.

>>282182543
Her lying to Sayuri didn't convince you, there is something skewed with her sense of morality?
The basis of her worldview is that she prefers a beautiful lie over a sad truth and the Mizuhara rental persona is just that a beautiful lie, Kazuya fell for the lie.

How would anons feel if Chizuru was lying when she said "I'm in love with you but I can't quit my job"? What if she has no romantic feelings but lied and said she did to let him down easier with a beautiful lie? Would that be a sympathetic motive?

>>282182729
It wouldn't really surprise me, because we already have a precedent with Ruka quitting, she genuinely loves this job unlike Ruka though. I feel it's more that she doesn't want to have romantic feelings for him than anything, maybe that's what the constant bitching is for.

There's no way this ends with Chizuru and Kazuya becoming a couple

>>282182810
It won't, it will end with them divorced and Kazuya paying child support for the child he think is his.

>>282182769
Polemic opinion, but Ruka embodies Sayuri's drive better than Chizuru.
I'd even argue Chizuru didn't say the full story about Kasumi and if she blames her dad, then it's because he abandoned her because he didn't accept what she did at her job, meaning he didn't fully loved her.

Maybe her mom was a JAV actress and dad was narrowminded and prejudiced enough to consider sex as work as cheating. Chizuru never forgave dad for his narrowmindness.

>>282183012
It sounds like Chizuru never forgives anyone for anything if she's still mad about the 1 star review.

Now Mini is blaming Chizuru’s dad for her inability to have relationships. When will it end?

Mini isn't even a character
how can anyone waifu a non-character?

>>282183316
Her character is her wanting to be the woman who walks next to Kazuya.
The mini who repeats what readers speak is a mouthpiece corpse meant as Reiji's way to laugh at nip hatereaders.

>>282183012
>Chizuru didn't say the full story
Chizuru most probably doesn't know the full story: All we know is that she doesn't see her mother's husband as a father since he bailed on them. Everything else is speculation, we can consider Chziuru's hunch to be correct and that mother cheated on him and he run away after learning Chizuru isn't his biological daughter, but still all the shit she got at school for not having parents will be just that. Neighbor knows nothing, unless Kasumi had other men after her husband left, which wouldn't bee the worst.

Making her a JAV actress goes way too far.

>>282182273
News flash, Plebbit's new cope is abt Umi being actually a good guy and is helping Chizuru to get closer to Kazuya.
Check the serious discussion.

>>282182543
>Lies to her family about the relationship
>Keeps the lie going on for Kazuya's family because (?)
>Claims to care about Ruka yet willingly dates her boyfriend with no issues
>Ghost Kazuya because she suddenly cares about the chick that she ignored all the time
>Gives mixed signals to Kazuya
>Ghost Kazuya AGAIN
She may bot be as bad as Kazuya but she isn't even decent

>>282183865
My guess was that it's acting related and Reiji is just baiting, but come on asking her second guy how to deal with her first guy is just retarded.

>>282183879
>not as bad as Kazuya
What? Kazuya is a good guy.

>>282183900
>Stalks his crush multiple times
>Gav an incel rant to her for doing her job
>Made the whole girlfriend lie
>Harasses a stranger (Ruka at the time) just to make sure she doesn't tells the truth even though she never intended (he could also potentially killed her but this depends on how much you want to blame him for her nearly falling)
>Lies to everyone again after promising not to lie again
>The way he treats Ruka (which could be an entire post but let's keep it "short")
>Lying to his crush about his "girlfriend"
>Only thinks about friends that support him (Sumi and Mini) just to help him with his crush
>Avoids all conflict at all cost even though it only leads to more and he just washes his hands afterwards
And there are way more that I'm probably forgetting

Us? I'm cheering on him

What kind of mentally ill editor in chief tells Marcey to wrap up his unprecedented branching harem end with two chapters for each girl and a final undressing gag before the axe but lets Reiji get away with dragging out yet another arc by having fish boy get cucked by the sea?

Mami will win

>>282137255
She’s even recording him here. In some fucked up way she’s the puppet master and who knows how much blackmail she has ready to fire.

>>282185470
WSM EIC is a misery porn enjoyer. Remember some of his bages were being AoT and 5toubun's editor and handle Domekano's last third.
Shintarou Kawakubo may be really happy with Reiji and is giving him and Miki more privileges and financial stimuli to keep them doing what they want.

>>282186702
She recorded him simply to have both a leverage to blackmail Chizuru and a memory of Kazuya if he succeeds.
Maybe she'll end fingering herself seeing that video.

>>282186769
mini will build a tribute shrine so when kazuya gets truck-kun’d she’ll still have a master to pray and shlick to every day

>there are no winners here
Reji

>>282184014
Most of those come from the beginning of the series, and being conflict-avoidant doesn't add to the bad person score

>>282137916
0% chance something like that would actually work. Chizuru would just ghost him back and they'd never speak again. Probably not a bad idea for him to do it still and be rid of her, but she would never come crawling back with the way she constantly has people throwing themselves at her.

>>282190837
So, the only options is SIMP HARDRR and risk getting a restraining order fir trying to force yourself onto Chizuru, right?

>>282192152
Yeah he either gives up on Chizuru entirely or simps until his death hoping she graces him with a crumb of pussy, not really great options for him.

>>282185470
>unprecedented branching
Don't preach that much. Amagami is just bokuben, but well done

>>282183885
Or she may be taking a decision behind MiniKazuRuka's backs.

>>282194169
If the "I don't want a boyfriend before the play ends" was bullshit she becomes irredeemable and the story ends.

>>282194430
I don't think it's going to be bullshit but we will have "will they won't they" but with Umi

>>282195270
Mw, Kazuya ends drifting towards Mini.
Her encouragement hides another second intention from Mini: she's subtly trying to make Kazuya learn to slowly let go of Chizuru through making him be busy. The self improvement shit, the gym, her telling Kazuya to wait 'till 7-eleven, Mini growing incensed at Chizuru and resentful at Kazuya's determination to improve for his oneitis and not for himself, and Mini recording him.

Still i think chapter 386's 1st page is too much on the nose to be a foreshadowing, but looks like a similar scenario is being shaped up. If something happens between the Devious & the Sea/the Fly/the Mosquito & the Scum, then we can say that arc opening was a declaration of principles for this arc.

>>282195270
If Chizuru does any kind of 'will they wont they' with Umi then that makes her a horrible person and the entire plot of the manga falls apart.

>>282195776
No, I don't think that she would but rather the story will make it look like, like say Umi hugging Chizuru for X justifiable reason only for Kazuya to see it out of context

>>282194139
It distinguishes itself by making the manner and mechanism of the branching part of the narrative and having the girls have memories of their winning route and still be kind of co-married in the others, which would have been a neat dynamic to explore if WSM didn't hate publishing good manga

Choriputabros...

Reading this is exhausting I blame Shitzuru.

Ruka's beautiful pink vagina

>>282197398
Would you insert your penis?

>>282152340
She'll go zombie mode once he sees Kazuya's abyss'd face after misunderstanding Umi force-kissing Chizuru as them having a consensual kiss. She'll tell him to ease down, and telling him if he gets more experience, maybe Chizuru will consider him.

Just here to ask if they already adapted the NTR pool chapter or not. It's the only shit I know that manga for
