I won't be here to dump next week, though the problem is I also likely won't have the auto updates back up and running by then. I'll see if I can either enable them at least just for Mayonaka, or upload it to the Mega manually like ~20min after the release for someone else to dump. But yeah it would be best if someone was ready to also rip the chapter themselves next week just in case

History of astronomy time: the Greeks/Romans originally thought Mercury was two different planets, and named the planet that appeared in the evening as Mercury and the planet that appeared in the morning as Apollo. Eventually it was recognized the two were in fact the same planet.

In addition to the Mercury association, Apollo is also associated with the sun, and Apollo’s twin sister Artemis associated with the moon.

It's interesting cause Rikka had many scenes where the sun was a highlight like that hug with Yamabuki in the train
>>
>>283361648
Well Apollo could have hide it from Yamabuki but it's true that she sounded more open, telling random people online that she loved them
>>
>>283362234
Apollo is just another of Iko's characters, like her VTuber avatar or her bokuko persona at her current school, Buki will end up falling for the real her which is why her plot is about showing her real emotions
>>
>>283359810
>She would later fumble that date and drown her sorrows in booze.
>>
>>283362323
Yamabuki has been around her for almost 100 chapters and it doesn't feel like he has feelings for her. And if Iko played a character then most of her convos with him will feel fake, just like all of her "ily" since we saw iko gradually falling for him and Apollo was saying him ily from the start

Of course he did, he's just starting to fall for her and he still has unresolved feelings for Apollo, Iko's plot is about showing her real emotions so MC has to progressively fall for her as she reveal more of her real self
>>
>>283362181

Didn't Yamabuki see plenty of her real self already ? When she insulted him when she was too stressed to show emotions, when she got jealous and took a couple photo with him...she even mentioned a time where she didn't want to be around people anymore and he didn't even ask what she meant by that

If anything this arc shows that she has been pretty open except for one thing, what happened in middle school which is why she avoided everyone instead of putting her mask on
>>
>>283361719
We just gonna ignore the association between the moon and the Apollo spacecraft? Because that's clearly what the name Apollo in this series is referencing.

She kissed him because she was concerned Shinobu got a leg up on her and Iko made her jealous because of the "best couple" thing. Rikka even tried to back out of it by saying it might not be an I love kiss.

This. None of these girls are particularly mature. Rikka hides her insecurities beneath a veneer of confidence, Shinobu is meek and overly self-depricating, Nene is an emotionally stunted tsundere, and Iko is a jealous basket of neuroses.

They all have a lot of growing to do, and that's part of what makes them endearing. Fortunately they have a Yanabuki to help.

She held his hand long before that. She's the most overtly clingy of the bunch, equivalent when she's jealous. He seems to be the most desensitized to her affections because they've always been physical in nature. Now it's a matter of whether or not that changes as a result of the other girls chipping away his walls sufficiently enough that he's beginning to get embarrassed a lot more easily.

Because of his upbringing. He's been groomed since childhood to become the head of a zaibatsu. Couple that with the fact that his own idea of defiance is, "You want me to be great? Oh yeah, well I'll be so fucking great that you can't even handle it because I'm a cool rebel. What do you think of that, Mom and Dad?" and you have a pretty clear recipe for a character who's a stickler for the rules.

To Rikka's credit, I'm pretty sure she would outright admit that she has the same thoughts if asked. Her honesty is her strongest character trait. And Rikka is my least favorite of the four.

>>283365970
He's been physical with all of the girls and already showed reactions but not with her
>>
>>283366240
Yeah, that's why she made it into a whole riddle when Arisu asked her about the kiss.
>>
So we know Rikka with her ex bandmate friend. Nene as rebel kid that made her dad stop believing her when she says she wants something, and now we are going to learn Iko's. This leaves Shinobu as the only one without a particular backstory.

Because he had reason to believe that it's just in character for her to behave that way before he clocked that all of the girls have feelings for him. When she was asked to play along as though they're dating to make Nene jealous, she did so with no hesitation. He viewed her physical intimacy differently than that of the others because she didn't treat it as a big deal. I'm willing to bet money that that's going to change going forward.

>>He viewed her physical intimacy differently than that of the others because she didn't treat it as a big deal

She asked him nervously if he had kissed Nene, she couldn't kiss him on the cheek and did it through a tablet, she couldn't let him put lotion on her because she panicked and she is only physically assertive is when she feels threatened so I do think it's a big deal for her.

Also, she didn't say he was a catch until after Iko got clingy. Iko reacted that was because of the other girl doing this.

Like I said here >>283365779 this is how Iko counters the affections of bitches moving in on her man.
>>
>>283366677
Oh it's absolutely a big deal for her. But Arisu initially didn't have any reason to believe that was the case because she was initially the most overtly physical. She's supposed to be the "assertive shy girl", after all.

That's what i don't agree on. Rikka was putting her head on his chest in ch3, Nene kissed him through a book and went in his bed, shinobu hugged him twice in like chapter 10, Rikka actually kissed him, and indon't think we ever saw 'casual' touch between them

Honestly that was a great moment, other harems can live and die without a moment like that ever happening, so at least the author knew how to play that one and it worked greatly.

The other girls have a couple of instances each of blatant physical affection. Iko has a constant stream of them. She touches him and clings to him whenever she's jealous - which is fairly often given that she's by far and away the most possessive heroine.

It's only when she ISN'T jealous or deliberately playing along with Arisu that she struggles to express herself physically. E.g, the tablet kiss at the end of her collab mine-arc.

Still waiting for this to come full circle by the way.

>Honestly that was a great moment, other harems can live and die without a moment like that ever happening
The fuck you're talking about, most harems have a chapter about the tsundere playing hard to get like that
>>
>>283367164
I doubt anyone here is fit enough to carry any of the girls.
>>
>>283367188
Most adult males should be able to deadlift 50kg, carrying that weight on your back is way easier
>>
>>283367185
That's the only scene where I thought Negi went a little too far with the red herrings. That's the only time i thought nino could actually have won
>>
eating snacks everyday was a mistake made by shinobu, but at least her tats are biggest and softest
>>
>>283367185
Tsundere playing hard to get? Sure. Tsundere playing the MC like a fiddle and having an upgrade in the relationship like the first name basis at the same time while being smug all the way, not that many.
>>
>>283367185
The entire point of that chapter is that Nino sucks at acting like a tsundere because it makes her uncomfortable to not express her affections clearly. It worked on Futaro, but it was clearly meant to illustrate that she's not that type of character. Itsuki is the classical tsundere heroine (reread the first 35 or so chapters if you don't believe me). Nino is a landmine. Hence the Jirai Kei-adjacent fashion sense.

Her confession scene would have been a way better example here. She was actually kind of tsun during that.
>>
>>283367298
>Nino is a landmine. Hence the Jirai Kei-adjacent fashion sense.
What's that supposed to mean?
>>
>>283367338
Tsuderefags for some reason don't like to admit Nini was a tsundere
>>
>>283367233
I don't really think it's a red herring. At least not the way that Itsuki's entire existence was. Everything post-Kyoto and pre-festival (which admittedly isn't a lot) was a constant struggle for Futaro to not reciprocate the quints' advances because he could no longer deny that he'd caught feelings for all five of them. He had similar moments with most of the sisters.
>>
>>283367233
Dod you also thought Marika would win after she pulled the same stunt?
>>
>>283367447
Marika ? Idk her
>>
>>283367372
She has tsundere qualities and moments. But she's definitely not a typical tsundere. The point of the archetype is a contrast between aggression/coldness and affection. Nino doesn't really exhibit that. She genuinely hates Futaro initially, and once she realizes she has friends for him, she's completely up front about it. There's no back and forth between the two. It's a leap from seething hatred to "I'm in love with you and I'm going to do everything I can to prove it". She's objectively not a classical tsundere.

That's the whole point of having a chapter where she acts like one and it just doesn't suit her. That's literally the joke. Even if acting tsun was successful she still decides "fuck it, I'm just gonna keep throwing myself at him because that's how I roll."

Wrong, there's a clear progression from hatred to love with her, starting from her opening up to him after getting locked outside her apartment, to lying to her dad to save his job to consoling him after Rena dumped him to her confronting her dad again right after moving out and then to the confession, she's a textbook classic tsundere, just a poorly written one

You're on crack if you don't think all four of them are going to be wildly successful in their chosen careers. Also, Iko's flash-forward is also a dream sequence.

Anon, Amagami setting with gods and mystical shit always allowed for harem... And even then still they didn't do it, iopting to pseudo-routes with parallel words. It doesn't make Amagami and for example Bokuben a true harem type of romcom like 100gf's, KmK, Umi no Misaki etc.

Yeah, a heavily comedic series where everyone is big baka and it starts with MC getting in relationship with two girls. Nothing similar to Mayonaka situation.

why do people hate harems when they consume it so religiously? if haremslops weren't loved, and if harem endings or multi-route endings weren't desired, then harem stories wouldn't get so much exposure in magazines, have so much sales, or get so many anime adaptations...

Harems have different kinds of heroines so they suit a larger audience, single girl romances just appeal to thise that like FeMC
>>
I actually really hopeful that this time around loser heroines will properly move on with their life, archive their dreams and maybe even get other love interests. I don't want another Toubun "Honeymoon"
>>
>>283370595
when some heroines did that in a poorly ended story like nisekoi, people hated that too. there is no pleasing audiences with any kind of ending for a haremslop. just enjoy it for the journey I guess.

I just don't want to see ikoshit or neneshit winning. pitybait and tsundere archetype shouldn't be allowed in reiwa era, heiseishit should be forgotten

Who argued they are hated here? People were discussing that there a different types of harem stories and Mayotuna isn't the type to get a harem ending. Even routes are extremely unlikely

Depends on the harem, formula and execution really. People weren't mad in Umi no Misaki, Tenchi, DxD etc. 100 girlfriends is ongoing with their cult being permanently pleased, no horseracing formula. KmK ended with relatively content fanbase, though there were complaints about last third and poorly executed Mirika arc.

Meanwhile Yuuna became infamous when it ditched harem ending in last arc and pivoted to single-end while giving epilogue that was hilariously cruel to a loser heroines.

It all depends.

>>
>>283370595
It's already pretty much guaranteed that all of the heroines are going to be successful in their pursuit of their dreams. Part of the premise of the series is that Arisu doesn't just exist to bring the romantic fulfillment. He's the producer that they needed to get their shit together and become great. Everyone will win, but there's only going to be one Mrs. Yamabuki.
>>
>>283370953
Even nips won't give a shit about announcer girl being in relationship. VTuber girls are often anonymous. Rikka as being a singer would always result in some fan's rumblings, but not to degree that Idol would face. Nene might get someone flak too, but VA's get into relationships all the time, it's nothing that serious.

Iko is too possessive to hide her relationship with Arisu. She'd rant to her viewers that some bitch at the grocery store had the audacity to look at her man so she had to pin him down and replace the stank with her own when they got home. The audience will love it.

I'm a LNfag and this is painfully untrue. Most LN harems are tacked on so that they can put a variety of waifus on the cover and move volumes.

There are plenty of good LN harems I've read. But saying they're better on average than manga harems is a shit take. The LN industry is designed from the ground up to distill low effort slop.

Most of them only take a few hours to read. My work permits me a lot of free time so knocking out 3-4 in a day isn't that tall of an order. I've only gotten into them in the past couple of years as well. In 2022 I read over three thousand volumes of manga.

Shinobu (and to a lesser extent Rikka) has always been winning heroine-coded. Knowing that is how I hold out hope that she's a red herring and that Iko or Nene will win.
>>
>>283361494
By me.

Shinobu is basically written as the designated winner from the start, any divergence from that will be subversive and might keep the story's romance parts interesting.
>>
>>283375156
>>283375121
Rikka is also pretty winning heroine coded.
Well depending how it develops Iko might be pitybait winner coded so that means the only true subversive heroine would be Nene.

>>283375333
I don't particularly care about the winner being "subversive" so much as I'd like get to not be the kind of heroine you see in commonplace, popular romcoms. Rikka and Shinobu are pretty and likable but they're just so basic. Nene at least holds fast to being a true tsundere in an era where the archetype is never allowed to win, and Iko is a somewhat unique character with her combination of shyness and possessiveness. I like all four of these characters, I just don't want the easiest, most palatable picks to win.
>>
>>283375714
Iko might be the pitybait. Also she's just a variant of the shy girl which sometimes win the current meta.
>>
>>283375714
>a true tsundere in an era where the archetype is never allowed to win
this just seems wrong, tsundere are by far the majority of winners in haremshit.
>>
>>283375800
It isn't the 2000's anymore, anon. Though this absolute goddess was pretty tsun.
>>
>>283375800
It's rare for Tsundere to win in Monofag Isekai slop for sure.
>>
>>283375962
there aren't that many monofag isekai slop. tsundere win in isekai all the time, or most of the time it's just a harem.
>>
>>283375800
Tsunderes *used* to be the one that always won in haremshit. Now the pendulum has swung the other way and they never win.
>>
>>283376480
I mean unless this is a very recent swing, they're still mostly winning. and it's a pendulum, people will start supporting tsundere wins soo enough again.
>>
>>283376549
What prolific harem romcom has featured a winning tsundere since Nisekoi and TWGOK ended? Which was literally a decade ago, mind you.
>>
>>283376653
Hmmm, okay fair, the only actually prolific true harem type would be Masamune-kun which had Aki winning in the end. Rent a Girlfriend is likely going to end with Tsundere win too. And yeah Nisekoi and TWGOK are a decade ago :( I suppose I was looking at romance or love polygon ones too, and a lot of them have tsundere winners but it was never a harem per se.
>>
>>283376653
the question could be turned around and asked as "how many prolific harem romcoms has there actually been since 2014-2016 that has ended?" a lot of them had multi-route or harem endings...
>>
>>283376790
Even among the ones with multiple routes and harem endings, how many of them featured a tsundere heroine? Pretty sure it's just Yuna Amagami. And she and Yae got mogged so horribly that there may as well have only been one ending because Asahi was the only character 90% of the readers gave a fuck about.

Tsunderes don't win these days.
>>
>>283376916
there just hasn't been major harem stuff that has actually ended in the last 10 years at all. and yeah asahi was true winner anyway, even last chapter cover makes it clear.

All this shenanigans could have been avoided if he just said yes when apollo prompted to reveal who she was.
>>
>>283378939
he had feelings for all girls and wasn't ready to settle down this whole situation.
he promised to make thier dreams come true and establishing relationship with one girl would shake resolve in others, despite all his ''muh feelings'' he knows that they are driving force of human nature, he wants to keep them motivated by it, competing against each other and this pushing forward on that power.
calculating bastard pretends to be aloof about love, his entire search for apollo was driven by love and he knows how powerful these feelings and motivating.

>>
>>283379074
he established himself as their producer. manga isn't pure romcom slice of life slop where mc just spend time with girls for fun and could just date one and drop club.
also his ego doesn't allow simple solution. he wants to find apollo himself using deduction and observations. this is the reason why apollo always have traits from different girls like shinobu unique 2 color hair, rikka's bobcut etc
this is not meta-narrative hints from author but mc's projections

Idols are more like public girlfriends that as part of the social contract/appeal, cant show favoritism to their hordes of fans/social boyfriends.

Why are Rikka's eyes all black and big like an alien's there? Is that common for her?
>>
>>283386259
Because Stacy just learned a cool secret to gossip about
>>
>>283386259
She often does that while she's pissed or jealous.

I wonder which character she's parodying. Shinobu is so moved.
>>
>>283386196
She literally told the girls that Yamabuki had many girls after him and was the first to say that she wanted to be rosalind, she felt threatened as well which is also why she did the couple picture....
>>
>>283386366
Unironically would accept it, she is a cute gold digger.
>>
>>283386541
>she felt threatened as well which is also why she did the couple picture
I thought she did that because Rikka looked hot in her uniform and was getting Buuki's attention.
>>
>>283380067
....... by the wrong girl he doesn't even really like, and she's only doing it because she wants to win over the main girl.... fucking hell lol
>>
>>283386882
Oh, I thought it was just Mona being an idiot.
>>
>>283385304
I wonder if we can get Ai to fix the anime and shorten their shirt to show their tummies as god intended.

oh no, it was asahi going for the kill completely out of the blue, meanwhile mona and tomo are unaware.
>>
>>283386882
>>283387125
I'm sad, that Mona or Namba didn't see it. Their meltdown would be epic.
>>
>>283387125
Asahi is so best it's a fucking crime. I wish Mona wasn't the MC and the manga wasn't about women who dislike traits in other women.
>>
>>283387234
it's such an important observation, the entire manga is all about women competing for a man who doesn't give them the time of the day like they think they deserve, and all about pointing out faults in each other behind their backs. is the author female?
>>
>>283387125
the art in this fucking manga is so good, but the plot is so bad, japanese population of such men need to be cleansed.
>>
>>283387234
Best girl isn't a haremette.
>>283387294
How would our hero, Bucky, handle them?
>>
>>283370633
>people hated that too
Probably because they hated Nisekoi as a whole
>>
>>283387561
At least mayotuna will never reach otter territory.

>Still better than most of the cast
Funny how that works

>Tsunderes don't win these days.
Consider picking pic related, FeMC is mostly a classic tsundere and I'd be surprised if she doesn't end up winning
>>
>>283387125
It honestly makes me pissed, that she doesn't have a chance agains Mona. She puts so much hearth into it. Best girl.
>>
>>283387688
The only reason I remember nisekoi is because I still fap to some doujins about the tomboy assassin, if you know which ones, you know.
>>
>>283388009
Which one is the main girl?
>>
>>283388009
Which one is the tsundere? The red haired one or the brown haired girl frowning with the grey jacket?
>>
>>283389262
>>283389357
Brown side-tail is the tsundere who's also the same age as MC, redhead os a year younger and kind of a manipulative slut
>>
>>283388009
There's also cuckoo and Shuiji family, where the winners are looking to be tsun and plenty of love triangle animés where the main girl is a tsun
They are still popular
>>
>>283389588
ouka is gonna win?
>>
>>283389660
No
>>
>>283388009
What 5Toubun knock of is this?
>>
>>283389674
but that's the only tsundere in shuji family
>>
>>283389793
MC is the tsundere there
>>
>>283389809
lol

>Gimai 5nin iru
Title kind of says it all

Lemon-chan smokes?

Yamabuki men can't get it up
>>
>>283389998
Nothing a Vtuber's ASRM can't fix
>>
>>283359771
Tasteful fanservice with Lemon's breasts covering Rikka. They're big enough to cover them from being caught.
>>
>>283389830
What does the title mean?

We know Nene's height, right?
Can anyone estimate the other girls'?
>>
>>283359513
When yor boyfriend tells you to jump, you jump and don't question it.

>>283360864
Rikka's exposed shoulders and parts of her back make her susceptible to unwanted advances at night.

>Same author as Even a Replica Can Fall in Love
It'll probably an anime eventually too
>>
Lemon was made for Yamabuki cock.
>>
>>283390472
He's a child!

Nene is a big girl
>>
>>283390392

Why? Are they an esteemed author?
