Junna and Raito are alone on a deserted beach. They can't cooperate if it means reducing the screen time of their favorite Yuzuru, and they could have done well even without the crash. Junna says that if he's honest, he can quit, but Raito can see that this isn't what he really wants. In the end, he caused the crash, so Raito, a TV man to the core, can't help but take beautiful, fluffy photos. While calling Raito a freak, he warmly extends his hand and wins him over. Junna holds his hand and calls him her best accomplice, and Raito says, "I want to take more photos of him." They agree to continue working together, and Junna ends the episode without realizing that Raito's true feelings are those of Junna herself. Next up, the top performers will become team leaders and form teams with the other members. The next episode will be on hiatus.

Dance club member Sachi cosplays as a fox dancer, shaking her butt as she performs the dance, a huge success. Her brother tells her how cute she is, and Sachi blushes. The two begin their cultural festival date. At Sachi's class's haunted house, Sachi pretends to be with her boyfriend, but she's quickly found out and Nagi becomes the topic of conversation. Hisano ends up working at a maid cafe dressed as a girl, and Shinjo treats her to a poisonous reception. Nagi quickly brushes off any obstacles and enjoys the cultural festival, while Sachi clings to her with a brilliant smile. Nagi and Erika join up for a commemorative photo of the four girls together. In the next episode, Nagi receives some shocking news.

(Japanon comment) Changing Kazuya's appearance is a bold move.
Who cares about the date? There's no place for a fake girl.

(Spoiler)Just before chapter 400, Kazuya gets a shocking makeover in the opening color issue.
He transforms into a completely different person with refreshing short black hair, so fresh you'll recognize him.
Two weeks have passed since Chizuru's kiss, and it's June, the rainy season. Kazuya is having an AI interview.
Sumi, dressed in a frog costume, appears as an avatar in a mini-corner to explain his transformation into a frog.
He's been working hard on his job search, dreaming of the day he'll be squeezed tightly between Chizuru's breasts. He keeps on going. Only the Kinoshita family is celebrating Kazuya's 22nd birthday; Chizuru, Ruka, and Mimi are not there. Kazu questions him about why he didn't bring Hime. He explains that he couldn't make it because he's working hard on an important performance, and Kazu tells him to let her know sooner. Meanwhile, Chizuru is being praised by the other characters as the batting center goddess of Nerima, but she can't get Kazuya out of her head and can't hit the nail on the head. On the first day of driving school, Kazuya bumps into Mami. "Next time, Kazu-kun, still i..."

Reiji's rushing like no tomorrow it seems. Driving camp miniarc just began.

>>283332971
>??
This is about Idolatry.

>>283333004
>transformation into a frog.

>The term "frog-ization" refers to a phenomenon where a person's romantic feelings for someone cool off as soon as the latter shows signs that they are interested too, and the original pursuer starts having an "ick" feeling for the other person. It derives from "The Frog Prince" in which a frog turns into a prince, but frog-ization means the opposite of the fairy tale.

oh no no no...

>>283333004
>but she can't get Kazuya out of her head and can't hit the nail on the head
it's foreshadowing to how he's interfering with her career and to the talk with Umi about it

>>283333126
That, and Mini's awakening seems to point at Kazuya transitioning from the 2nd greatest love to the 3rd (if we use the 3 great loves of the life theory).

Holy shit, this chapter feels extremely rushed af, Niwatori just skipped Ruka's date and Umi's convo and made his bday uneventful af. Seems he's now just ticking boxes to close unresolved plot points and finish this in 2 or 3 volumes.

>>283333383
>skipped Ruka's date
like always
>and Umi's convo
will happen when it is relevant, just like Mami and driving lessons
>and made his bday uneventful af
as expected

>>283333545
>will happen when it is relevant, just like Mami and driving lessons
Umi's convo was gonna be the same week as Ruka's date. He simply skipped and ommited shit just to go to the point.

There's too much sus shit surrounding kanokari now.
>Physical sales in vol. 1 levels.

>>283333004
Reji avoiding all the filler and going directly to the date? Ain't no way he's going to start making good decisions, also there is no universe where Ruka or Mini wouldn't celebrate his birthday or at least comment on it so there better be an explanation

>>283333383
Look man, I want to read Ruka's date as much as the next guy, hell she is the only reason why I bother with this manga to begin with, but objectively speaking it's better to skip all the filler and go directly into the "interesting" parts

>>283333004
Reiji skipped the Ruka date what a fucking hack

>>283334215
>so there better be an explanation
Reiji was brought to Mr. Axeman's room and was given a final deadline. That's the explanation

>>283334302
Not just that, he skipped Kazuya and Umi's talk and his fashion emergency process.
This smells like kanokari being just soft-axe.

>>283334215
>there is no universe where Ruka or Mini wouldn't celebrate his birthday
Ruka invited herself last time, because she expected Chizuru to be there and wanted to prevent anything from happening. Now she believes Chizuru is vanquished so there is no need for her to go.
Mini would never invite herself to his family gathering.

He'll probably get some message on line from both though.

>>283333004
>Chizuru, Ruka, and Mimi are not there
With Mami I understand, but his self proclaimed GF and the slut that supposedly likes him couldn't afford to pass by for some minutes to say Happy Birthday, kek

>>283334625
I read bad, it was Mini?
So not even his best (female) friend could go? Kekek
What about Kibe and the other retard?

>>283334625
Chizuru, Ruka and Mini didn't go.
Mami appears right after the bday at the driving camp.

>>283334656
Kek, Mami master race. Always.
Even Mini disspointed me this time.

>>283333004
>Mini already gave up
>Sumi moving on
>Mami will confess and get rejected
Ruka is going to be the last one standing and she will clearly have a meltdown when its her turn

>>283334643
>So not even his best (female) friend could go? Kekek
Kaz doesn't consider Mini a friend, he even says he still doesn't know a shit about her.
>What about Kibe and the other retard?
Kazuya distanced from them since cohab.

Calling it now. Chapter 400 will be complete hackshit with a sprinkle of insanity.

>>283334315
Wait, I just follow Kanokari through this threads,
You telling me Reiji didn't show the discussion Kazuya had with Umi?
Were not everything saying shit would hit the fan? I remember everyone was theorizing about Umi drugging him or something?

>>283334675
>Cute supportive girl
>Calls her a master and supports him in his absurd romantic endeavors
>Often enough seems to care about him getting with Chorizo even more than he himself does
>She is likely the person he has interacted with the most in the last few months.
>Not a friend
Then what the fuck he thinks about her?

When will this shit end?

>>283334792
When it stops selling so well, so probably never

>>283334741
>You telling me Reiji didn't show the discussion Kazuya had with Umi?
Considering Kazuya didn't show any signs that it happened, my guess is Reiji just fucked up the timeline and that will happen later on.

Hey, anons, do you think either by some contract or just common sense, will the ending be Kazuya getting with Chorizo and that's it?
I'm asking because with how obviously Reiji wants to make this go on and on forever, couldn't he even make those two get together and still continue the manga with them as a couple?
Do you think it would stop selling so well then?
Because I mean, there's still potential for a bunch of plots,
>Those two having their first time
>Living together once again
>Pre planing if they are gonna marry/have kids any time soon
>Another super hyper cuck scene with Kazuya feeling like shit but turned on the first time Chizuru gets to do some kissing or sex scene for some series/movie

>>283334857
It ends the second they start dating "for real" or when she quits Diamond.

>>283334835
>Considering Kazuya didn't show any signs that it happened
Kuzu wasn't thinking about an image change and Umi was specific about wanting to see him at the karaoke bar.
It got skipped.

>>283334857
Reiji's plan was to get them get together and show their lives as a couple then later as a married couple. But that was a couple of years ago when he revealed this intention.

>>283334315
Weren't they supposed to talk about it on the day of the date?

>>283334425
>Ruka invited herself last time, because she expected Chizuru to be there and wanted to prevent anything from happening
You are forgetting that she was planning to celebrate it the next day because she couldn't assist for unknown reasons, otherwise she would been with him since minute 1

>>283335090
>Kazuya giving out cuck tears while watching his GF/wife getting "fakely" plowed by another man on a cinema screen is still a possibility
I pray for that to happen .
>>283335121
So that was the theory... People think Umi will do something to stop him from going to the date?
For real, how dumb you need to be to decide a meeting with your love rival the same day you supposedly have a date with your love interest?
Even Kazuya shouldn't be this dumb. .

>>283335121
>Weren't they supposed to talk about it on the day of the date?
No, he was gonna ambush Kazuya at his working place during that same week.
This chapter reeks of unplanned timeskip. We may be seeing what happened during that blank slate period through flashbacks, but shit looks weird.

>>283335324
>during that same week he called him.
Ftfy.

>>283335286
Kazuya moved out on May 18th.
Kazuya's birthday is June 1st.
The end of Chizuru's play is July 11th.
We didn't get a date for his meeting with Umi, it was "this" Saturday. It might've already happened, but it's not clear.

>>283333383
Not sure about 2 or 3 volumes, but yeah, this reeks of editorial intervention.

Can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm fully expecting this manga to end in the first quarter of next year.

>>283335502
>Can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm fully expecting this manga to end in the first quarter of next year.
I guess june-july 2026 is a safer pinpoint.
Tankoubons are 3 volumes behind the weekly schedule, so either volumes 43 and 44 get rushed into release or Reiji starts taking more breaks. In either case, it's going to be to make the volumes catch up with the mag. release and have the penultimate volume be promoted alongside the last 5 announcement.

And the anime season 5 will be forwarded to either the winter or the spring season, but doubt it's gonna be aired on the summer season as it used to be.

It was Chizuru and Kazuya (feat. Mini) for more than a year.

>>283335953

>Sumi got over her feelings for Kazuya years ago.
Was included in the Mini rant of the women that could steal Kazuya away.
>Mini is whatever.
She's the final boss
>Chizuru is busy.
Running away from her issues and trying to take Kazuya out of her head
>With who the fuck he would had go out on a date.
What date? He's filling the boxes so july 11th can come faster.

>>283335953
Ruka said that shit the chapter Kibe interrogated Chizuru during the cohab.
Then Kazuya confirmed that shit about the weekly dates in ch347.
Finally, she forced Kazuya into a date in Round1 Ikebukuro for the week after his previous date with Chizuru.

So ntrfags moved to Ruka for doomposting.
>Reiji did not show Ruka, the manga is ending

At least wait for the new info coming in hours to doompost about it.

>>283336671
>>Reiji did not show Ruka, the manga is ending
It's not bc of Ruka, but bc Reiji skipped Umi's convo, glossed over Kaz's bday, added a sudden fashion emergency and jumped straight to the driving camp.
>>A whole ass fucking chapter for a haircut which took place off-screen just to put Sumi there.
Sumi appears at the beginning of the chapter. It doesn't take the whole chapter. If you didn't pick the hint, read the plebbit translation of the spoilers, they are more organised.
>At least wait for the new info coming in hours to doompost about it.
More info than the ones we already knew? Nah. The doompost is bc Reiji placed some shit chapters ago and now he's shamelessly skipping them over just to jump to the Mami subplot.

>>283335392
Wait, Kazuya has to wait another fucking month just to date Chizuru again and see if she likes him?

If he could kill Ruka he would.

>>283339041
That's what she said to Mini, but it doesn't look like she'll be able to wait that long this time.

>>283334857
They will get together and that will be the end of it, the very fact that more and more posters are noticing that the plot is actually moving forward, plus the decrease in sales plus the reception to the anime, I think this is ending, whether that's because Reji is finally throwing in the towel or because axemen is raping him into it we just don't know, but I think it is going to be finished by the end of 2026 at the latest.

>>283340572
Kanokari has over 10 or 12 million in circulation. But sheer numbers tell that only S1 managed to cause a boost that spectacularly died down in a year. So selling this much is not rocket science when you have over 42 volumes. Considering Shiunji is also a flop, Reiji is done for. WSM became some sort of cherity for the veteran mangaka, but all of them can't produce a smash hit anymore. They are happy with measly 20-50k sellersto get by, while Blue Box sells 250k+ despite not doing anything special really, but at least it doesn't have a winging week by week feeling.

>>283340775
>inb4 Ryo Minenami fills the gap Reiji's gonna leave (she was making some drafts and had a meeting some weeks ago), and all of this shit is a silent agreement between Kodansha and Hitotsubashi. Basically a hostage exchange between rivals. Mw, Reiji can finally restart Mononote from zero or try a new batoru manga concept and try some luck in a bigger publisher. He already did 2 series for 2 hitotsubashi companies (22/+α in Shogakukan Sunday webry, and Shiunji family in Hakusensha's Yanimal), so doing one for Shueisha would be his peak as an author.

>>283340829
No chap this week. Finale next week.

>>283340923
>Kanokari has over 10 or 12 million in circulation
It has 14 million, but worldwide, which already questions how much are the copies in circulation only in Japan.

Mw, Sono Bisque Doll surpassed it again with 15 million and it's on its way to reach 16 millions and become the 3rd most popular modern romcom after Kaguya and 5toubun considering copies in circulation.

>>283340947
Reiji is a hack and the readers know this by now. No amount of cute girls will ever give him another big hit. Not that he needs it. He probably has more than enough money already.

>>283341057
>Reiji is a hack and the readers know this by now.
Not Hacka levels of hackery tho.

>>283341389

>>283342718
>It will be celebrated everywhere
Nah. people will rage bc either their favorite waifu lost, or bc the ending was total dogshit for what it attempted to show.
It will be one of those divisive endings of all time.

>>283343471
>people will rage bc either their favorite waifu lost
delusional people will do that regardless who wins, but it's not a mystery who wins here

>or bc the ending was total dogshit for what it attempted to show.
No mater how good the ending will be, Reiji wasted enough good will and nobody will really care, it will just get some shrugs and "Oh, it only ended now, I thought it was over years ago? "

>It will be one of those divisive endings of all time.
Not a chance, it will only achieve any notoriety if they don't get together by the end.

>>283335090
I'd have some respect if he "ended" Kanokari and actually made a sequel specifically about their relationship but that shit never fucking happens

>>283344250
>it will only achieve any notoriety if they don't get together by the end.
Or if Reiji pulls an akb49 or a Cafe and makes a girl other than Chizuru win.

I know from a fact most haters will celebrate kazuya returning with Mami or giving Ruka/Mini a chance and feel kanokari was redeemed with that.

Is Reiji a bigger hack than Aka?

>>283344875
Aka is so much worse. Aka is addicted to the smell of his own farts. Reiji seems very self-aware in contrast.

>>283345169
>Aka is so much worse
Btw, is Marchen crown still alive? Or Hacka decided to put it to an end just because of his other 2 new mangas?
Knowing him, he would make it a nihilistic edgefest with a pessimistic ending.

>>283339425
5ch also got btfo that Kazuya sperging did not take half the chapter like jap anon mentioned.

Anon, i know you are enthusiastic about this series going after the dating and sex and becoming walmart bokuyaba depictin the couple life, but there's no evidence this gonna survive 2026.
This isn't about NTR, Umi wanted to ambush Kazuya at his working place that week, simple as. The convo was purposefully skipped and may be linked to his hideous image change (saw a leak on plebbit)

There's a little leak of the brand "new" Kazuya circulating on plebbit, but it seems i can't upload it due to the file being corrupted.
iaccording to leaker, he looks better in the chapter, but mo, he looks more hideous and childlike than with his bleached hair, no fkn way he'll score points with Chizuru like that.
On the other hand, he looks just like Urashima Tarou... Mami's first and last love

You fags are forgetting both include digital aswell.
Is known kanokari performance on digitals is better than its physicals. And Bisquedoll managed to reach the normalfag sphere so its digital and physical performance go hand to hand.
Thus their physical run on japan is definitely not as big as the numbers make it look like to be - for instance they are not a wsj title - and the digital performance is what is weight harder on those numbers.

Reiji needs to abandon romcom and do something ambitious like a battle shonen, preferrably in Jump and not Weekly Romcom Magazine
It’s a shame that he’s wasting his talent

He’s just lazy and unambitious
Probably has a shitty bland editor too
He needs to leave romcom, make battle shonen like he wanted to since he was inspired by One Piece to begin with
You even see the One Piece influence on Kanokari with the cartoony facial reactions, NPCs always commenting on Chizuru’s looks(similar to how fodder NPC crowds in One Piece always comments on the fight hyping)
We also know he loves HxH

>>283354367
I really hope this is a kick to him
KO should have never been milked this hard
I hope he realizes he’s wasting his career and makes something cool rather than just some cheap harem or romcom

>>283355052
Why would he stop ? He's making money, people are still reading his manga and always talk about it,it's getting a new season as well and a rom com seems less tiring to do than a shonen..plus café ending showed that readers will praised the ending no matter how the end was done as long as their fav win. Chizuru is gonna be all over the mc at the end and all the self inserts are going to be happy bc they "got" the girls

>>283354429
>Aka is a childless cuck divorcee.
Ftfy.

>>283354746
A reminder shuzo oshimi is also a happily married guy with children, yet he has some naaty fetishes and wrote a fetishist bizarre manga (Okaeri Alice).

>>283332964
thought she was getting choked out, damn shame.

>>283354429
If Reiji actually attempts to make a serious manga, people will try it.
If Aka manages to get yet another manga out, nobody is reading it, he's already burned too many chances.

>>283355052
>KO should have never been milked this hard
either end it with the movie arc, where the pacing issues started to show up or the cheer up date, everything after that was a disappointment

Probably won't be able to dump the chapter today. I'm busy with too much shit. It's not definitive, but around 11:30, i'll let you know.

>Or if Reiji pulls an akb49 or a Cafe and makes a girl other than Chizuru win.
>I know from a fact most haters will celebrate kazuya returning with Mami or giving Ruka/Mini a chance and feel kanokari was redeemed with that.
Chizuru haters live in a completely different reality, truly delusional.
They still think the main couple won’t end up together or that they somehow influence the manga’s popularity.
Reiji will still be rich a year from now, just like he is today.
The manga keeps selling, and new volumes keep coming out.

It’s honestly insane to hate a character when both Kazuya and Chizuru are written by the same author, one person. He literally created both sides of the story.
And let’s not forget, Chizuru was just doing her part-time job.If he fell for her, that’s on him, not her.

>>283332971
>>283332964
No spoilers for "Tune In to the Midnight Heart/Mayonaka Heart Tune"???

>>283356835
Why would they? It’s all downhill for them from Hawaiians unless they really, really like Mini for some reason.

>>283358016
It’s just a garbage story with a garbage heroine. You know what I see when I look at Itchy Nose Chizuru Mizuhara? Hatred and disgust. She doesn’t have a single redeeming trait within her soul and her existence is validated in the story by her fictional beauty with fictional characters endlessly praising her for no particular reason. Also she’s a garbage love interest with a manufactured artificial personality but everyone in her story seems to think otherwise just because…she’s beautiful…lmao no. Her day and night jobs don’t excuse her for being fake. She uses people and pretends she’s doing them a favor. Her way of getting people to handle her rejections is like hitting them in the face with a brick. She has no respect for people. But let’s excuse everything she is and has ever done just because she might have “feelings”, which I doubt since the timing is way too convenient.

Chizuru is just a really disgusting person who should end up alone but probably won’t because she is the author’s pet and he wants to make her happy by giving her everything she has ever wanted and more regardless of the consequences.

>>283359570
If you consider the frog from they Disney movie, is that costume an euphemism to say that Sumi got blacked?
Since she's bad at talking in her rental dates, her work would be easier if her customers are gaijins who doesn't speak Japanese .

I'm still holding out for a happy ending where each character gets what they truly want - where Chizuru just becomes an honest whore and Kazuya watches from a closet.

>>283360905
Sumi before would just sit there taking people’s money and looking retarded it’s no wonder she got low reviews.

>>283360933
I’m holding out for the ending where Kazuya just finished slrrping Mami’s used semen stained pussy and Mizuhara takes a bat to the both of them.

>>283360933
Nah it's going to end with Kazuya and Chizuru becoming a couple, Mini will watch them have sex, Mami will cry, Ruka will die and Sumi gets her shota boyfriend, all is right in the world.

There are plenty of reasons to doompost. Just forget about wanting to see Kazuru's couple life or them having sex or doing couple things.
And imo' it's better than this becoming the hajime no ippo of romcoms.

Sales were great until season 1 finale. Afterwards they started to decline even before the pool chapter.
Buts its performance on digital is consistent.

>>283356835
I think it's because The Cuckening is to embarrassing so they are counting in putting at the beginning so that people may only remember when everything gets resolved

>>283339368

qrd? is it bad?
kinda late to post this, if any other anon can answer as well would be nice

>>283355202
No dude, sales are declining which is why it’s getting rushed
Season 5 means fuck all

He has more than enough money by now
You can’t look at Reiji’s art and tell me that all he ever cared about was making money, you just can’t
Dude clearly had the passion and dreamt of making something good which is why his style is so unique, but along the way he got overwhelmed and chose the easy route
But there’s still time for him to make something cool, he has the talent

But they weren't in a position where the series would be in danger.

Is that too much to ask?
It’s proof we live in the matrix

>>283363011
Blue Lock, Shangri-la, mokushiroku, Hajime no Sendo and another one are above kanokari tho.
It may be the top romance, but not precisely a series that could make WSM bleed money if it gets finished. It's like you're overestimating its popularity.

Chizuru Mizuhara is only shown happy with Kazuya in a fantasy. Maybe he should marry his fantasy version of her instead at least then she would be willing to have sex with him.

>>283363032
Is well known cuckoo and this are the only wsm romcoms constantly ranking on the top 15 of manga pocket.
Then they are eaten by fujo pandering stuff, trendy romance stuff (back then was skip & loafer, now is kaoru no hana, then who knows) and shit like Guilty Circle.
So most of the manga audience is online.

>>283363213
Kanokari and Guilty circle both fight top 1 and 2 respectively in the magapoke site.
it's obvious the target audience for these 2 manga are NTRfags.

>>283363340
Ah yes. Kanokari’s only real competition: Cuckoo and Guilty Circle. One’s a nothing harem and the other is literally porn in manga form. I’m seeing a pattern on what readers really want when I look through all these titles.

Harvey Weinstein should have been reiji's editor

Not popularity, but the old(?) desire of the magazine to find their next gotoubun.
Remember when Tokyo Revenger was making fujos drop their panties and money on Kodansha but WSM put all its attention on the romcoms - the heroine election poll for example -.
Kanokari is still the most successful romcom on the magazine post-gotoubun and it will still be left alive to fill the romcom quota on the magazine.
Becaue Kodansha, in general, has other romance works which are doing better than kanokari rn (pic not related)

>>283363658
She hit the ball? So she's focused now that she knows she loves Kazuya?

>>283363803
Hitting the ball represents her rejecting the concept of falling in love.
She wants to keep struggling as an actress and be a booty call for hi-spec people, while working as a RaG for lo-spec and pariahs.

But forget for a second the ending, focus on the whole story and answer me this: were those 26 years full of absolutely nothing happening, pointless events and endless gushing from Keiichi for his divine waifu?
Because that's the usual complaint with this fucking manga, the glacial pacing truly makes you feels that this shit might have been going for 26 years as well

Near the end it was revealed that Belldandy had been brainwashing Keiichi the whole time to not have libido. Just awful.

BTW another romcom manga that last 15 years was Pastel
That shit was way way way worse than Kanokari, like genuinely rage-inducing not just a meme; and I rarely get mad at manga but I couldn’t last past 50 chapters with that one because of how angry I was at the 2 main leads
And it felt so slow to read too. It was pure torture.

Kanokari pacing isn’t actually that slow if you binge-read it, it just most of it is just filler and the manga is very light and easily consumable. It’s always Kazuya monologuing bullshit which you can speedread or even outright skip a lot of it and not miss anything in the ’’story’’.
Stuff like Pastel otoh feels like torture to read despite binging it

Are you ready for the 2nd word vomit rant double spread in the entire series?? Mami's rant where blaming Kazuya for all her disgraces, and now resenting him even more because he looks like Tarou.

>>283367697
I have never seen Mami actually tearing down Kazuya to his face besides the first time she met his fake girlfriend. She’s always so careful when she’s planting her lips all over him or using an innocent sounding voice so as not to look bad to him. If she had it her way she would have made him impregnate her at least twice by now.

>>283367697

It looks more like chizuru gramps and a tiny bit of mami's first love.
I dont know if Reiji has an intention behind this or just dropped the ball because for male designs we had john lenon on Shiunji not too long ago so is not like he does not know how to design male characters.

>in 2025
Is that what year it is in the story now? How many years has he wasted on his fake relationship by now?

>>283373091
>Is that what year it is in the story now?
One of the least mentioned flaws of Kanokari is that the timeline is really inconsistent, for example the story started in-universe around 2018-2020 bit you can see him now using AI and other shit

>>283359369
>that haircut
Was it really necessary for him to have that haircut style to draw obvious parallels to Chizuru's grandpa even further than before? Is Reiji really trying to say that Chizuru has a grandpa complex? God he's so fucking weird.

>>283373807
The first year of the story was in 2017, the years can be counted up from there.

>>283374051
Nozoki Ana made the MC had brotercon issues.
Not the weirdest thing Reiji's to pull.

Chizuru will step aside the moment she finds out Mami making her move. As a loser should.

>>283374051
>draw obvious parallels to Chizuru's grandpa
Not only that but also parallels to Mami's 1st boyfriend.
This just leaves Ruka as the only one who loves him because it's Kazuya and not a substitute for a lost dearest one. Chorizo and Mali don't love him for who he is and that's why they'll lose.

>>283374223
That implies that either Kazuya has spent 8 years in college or that Covid never happened and that accelerated AI advancements somehow

>>283374716
It’s an AU just accept the CO VID came and went in a couple months.

>>283374716
Or that it's 2018 or 2019 in story right now but AI is being revealed to exist in story since then.

>>283374716
Or maybe Reiji is a hack.
During the cohab, the timeline shifted from showing the exact year to just show 20XX.

>>283374782
That's Megaman's year.

What kind of girlfriend spends their boyfriend’s birthday in a batting cage alone with men?

>>283374971
she's not his girlfriend, chud

Just fucking kill me man, even on his non-cucked fantasies he's still pathetic

>Forced Chizuru wank even though this is supposed to be a Kazuya chapter

>>283374971
Just realized that we don't know what Ruka has been doing on his birthday
Reji is shafting her yet again

>>283375836
Whatever Ruka is doing it can’t be any worse than what Mizuhara has done with her mouth.

If there's any semblance of justice in this world the axeman is coming. And coming at full mast.

I AM KANOKARI

>>283377336
Grandma will be long dead before Chizuru even decides to spend one attosecond looking at his JUST hair and begs him to date her.

>>283375713
the randos are getting so bad she's slowly becoming some local urban legend...
You know what, I kind of want the story to continue past them starting to date, just to see how far this can go and if Kazuya eventually gets stabbed by one of Chizuru's psycho-fans.

>the only way the author can let KEKzuya win is by turning him into a self-insert
GEEEEEEEEG

>>283377117
I'd cut ties with my gma if she keeps being rude like that. Gladly she croaked long ago.

>>283376484
Busy with exams and abducting Kazuya at least once per week.

I don't read rent a gf but this is hilarious

>There are too many lots of errors, but please be glad to read it.
Seems the editorial intervention theory is taking force. Niwatori is admitting the chapter has lots of errors, so it seems it was made in a rush.

>>283380802
It's over isn't it?

>>283381676
Not yet, but a deadline may have been given.

>>283380802
I'm curious, do they specify what kind of errors? Do they plan to fix them?

>>283380802
Fucking finally, 380 was probably the straw that broke the camel's back, considering how quickly he had to back peddle from that. I guess the driving school will finish Mami's story and Ruka will be right after this or he'll completely off screen her, the conversation with Umi will only show as a flashback when Kazuya will doubt himself last time before it will finally end. Mini, Sumi, Chizuru's career will end as they are.

>>283381967
Both from magapoke's twit (that gave the blurb from ch381 and had the previous copies in circulation numbers with ch399 link, that's why it was deleted) and inside the manga.

>Fucking finally, 380 was probably the straw that broke the camel's back, considering how quickly he had to back peddle from that.
385 (kiss) was the last straw. A reminder the reception of that chapter in Japan was extremely negative, to the point Reiji had to rush an unplanned chapter (391) simply to explain what happened through Mini's lenses.

Reiji knows what he’s doing. This is the second time he’s tried something like this and his readers don’t like it. He could easily setup a situation where Chizuru stops beating around the bush but he doesn’t. He WANTS this exact scenario to play out so Chizuru never stops with her bullshit until the very end where she can just flip a coin on whether or not she stays with her simp. Because that’s all he’s ever worth to her apparently.
