Anyone who slanders Shimamura does so because they see too much of themselves in her and strike out in anger at being forced to confront the fact that despite them sharing such qualities as being fat, lazy and depressed, they do not get a hot girlfriend with some sort of un-diagnosed mental illness who's obsessed with them, while Shima-chan does.
>>4412164 idk lol I think the author just put her in for the lols then couldn't think of anything to actually do with her after a while, so she just hangs out wearing animal themed pajamas and eating snacks.
>>4412281 I want to see a bleak story where Tarumi tries to fight against fate, so she can get Shimamura in the end, no matter what cost in another universe. Tarumi just feels ineffectual in the current reality the series takes place in, desu.
I had forgotten that I had read the fan-translated version of 99.9 before I bought the official version so I had the experience the chapter where Shimamura outlives Adachi all over again. It really is Seabed-like in its ennui.
>>4410286 (OP) I finished 99.9 today and it's fucking incredible, I'm not going to complain about more Adashima but it feels very silly to be releasing Vol 12 if not more after what is an absolutely perfect ending to the series. It was just lovely and heartrenching and it's making me feel things

>>4412164 >>4412165 >just put her in for the lols The only way this is your takeaway is if you only saw the anime or something, Yashiro adds a lot to the series if you ask me and she undeniably adds a huge dimension to the Adashima love through the universe thing the LN set up.

>>4418110 It's unironically got me feeling like shit, in the sense that I'm self reflecting on what the afterlife for me will be like, who will be waiting for me in paradise when all is said and done? Shimamura lived a full life and died without regrets, I hope I can pass the way she does. Not just literally although her transitioning into her dreamscape was beautiful too

When exactly did Shimamura die? Was it the night she played DQ3 andwent to sleep I take it? Also did they ever confirm if they were married?

>>4417657 Can we talk about how Adachi's mom is smoking hot for absolutely no reason at all?
I didn't expect the novel to do fucking Mr. Nobody. I wished I never read 99.9, the last part at least... It fucked me up. I haven't been able to read anything else in the last 48 hours, I kept getting reminded of Shimamura whenever I tried to start reading something, even porno too.
>>4433584 Best Yuri character ever for me, no one doing it like her. One thing I love about the ending is it shows the slow burn absolutely paid off in the end

In 99.9 it set in like 70 years into the future, no? Yet still no cure for aging? or science babies? Did Yashiro secretly handicapping their earth's technological development or something?
>>4433620 No? we're half decade into 2030 and we're already have quantum computing & AI. Research in every field will only get exponentially faster and faster.
>>4433584 >even porno too. We're really ending this series without even a hint ofthem having sex, obviously we know they've done it but I want at least an ending to a chapter where Shimamura asks Adachi to come to bed, or waking up next to her

>>4434616 Follow the Japanese release order. Which means reading the first 4 chapters (or just all of 99.9) before volume 10.

Canonically there's a universe where Shimamura is the Adachi and Tarumi is the Shimamura.
