Last page, thanks for reading! See you next week!>>288447239And there he is, ready to rizz
>>288447239>>288447268Next chapter should just open up with them naked together in bed, covered in sweat and lots of discarded condoms.
So that other girl is obviously losing right?
>>288447268>>288447239Absolutely fucking bullshit. Himari doesn't give a shit about him, she only sees him as validation for her ego. She even says it herself.
>>288447150>>288447168>i like him because another girl loves him genuinely
>>288447410true love doesn't need condomsshe can afford a brat or two
>>288448161we all know she'd flush it before she'd miss a meeting.
After yesterday's rightful reaction to Lemon's confession, I was hoping today would also follow suit. Pity Ono is a hack.
>>288448710I mean as far as Lemon goes, I don't think it's endgame, I honestly think Lemon will still win in the end, for starters, Sunao didn't say he didn't love Lemon, but he was just choosing to go for the other girl and unless the body-swapping magically stops after next chapter then we still got some fuckery to get through.I can easily see Sunao and Natsumi dating but then somehow, Sunao's heart isn't in the relationship and he ends up going for Lemon.
>>288448710We are in the last volume for this series, it has to be spread so it lines up with the volume's chapter count.Lemon seems like it still has an arc or two, so it's not really comparable.
I'm not going to be satisfied even if Himari wins, and she's been my favorite since day one. The way this whole story is being resolved is just so fucking lame.
I'm going to be satisfied if Himari wins, and she's been my favorite since day one. The way this whole story is being resolved is just so fucking cool.
>>288446867This manga become chore to read. I don't even care who wins.
>>288449208I don't think I've ever seen a romcom where the heroine has been so disinterested in the MC as much as Himari has with Iemori. It's baffling to think she's even in contention. She's shown more affection to the cat in 1 chapter than him in the entire series.
I neeeeeeeeed Himari ass...
>>288447239>>288447268w-we've go this in the bag honokabros!himari is definitely getting rejected next week
>>288449267She was much better as the Wingman trying to make Hono-ten happen.
>>288449328Honoka unironically fumbled the bag for herself, the fuck was she thinking with that letter?
>>288449629Honoka about to get down in romcom history as the most robbed heroine of all time.
>>288449666So true Satan, you still owe me five bucks.
>>288449629a major force from above forced her to write it and act like a retardkinda like the death note you know
>here indepedant contractor, whose dream is to start your own company, wear MY APRON as a sign of YOUR SERVITUDE to me, GIRL BOSS SUPREMEHimari's love is like ebola
this is just nisekoi. mc loves another girl but ends up falling for the new girl who happens to be the main heroine and first girl. the two losing girls have cuter designs desu
>>288449988kek also just realized that this chick refuses to confess because of honoka and her own feelings, just like how chitoge left to america once she overheard kosaki confess on the school rooftop
>>288449666>Honoka about to get down in romcom history as the most robbed heroine of all time.Onodera was literally the mystery girl in her harem whodunnit and still lost. Granted Chitoge was always the main heroine in Nisekoi, but Onodera literally lost because of one popularity poll. Which is fucking hilarious. She was fucking boring anyway. Same as Honoka, and same as Haruna was in To Love Ru. Middle school crush heroines are always uninteresting as fuck in these horse races. The tragedy of Hina-Ten! is that Ono has managed to make Himari unlikable as well, even though she was a lot of fun early on in the manga and had by far the best chapters with Tenichi up until the change in editor.
>>288449988>the two losing girls have cuter designs desuTruly a retarded statement if I've ever read one. Chitoge and Himari absolutely fucking mog Onodera and Honoka respectively.
>>288450123honoka is cuter than himari, the orange hair is ugly. onodera had a retarded hairstyle, yui was the best looking in nisekoi anyways
>>288450089>Middle school crush heroines are always uninteresting as fuck in these horse racesThey're intentionally written to be more realistic and down to earth so that WACKY heroine winner stands out more. Imagine being such a failed fucking writer and editor team that the safe romance that makes sense beats out your fantastical dreamlike scenario.
>>288450173They're not fucking realistic at all. They're borderline-Yamato Nadeshiko heroines who are JUST quirky enough (shit at cooking/terrified of ghosts/adorably clumsy/bad at communicating/etc.; take your fucking pick—you only need one for the "middle school crush" heroine) to not be literally flawless. They're meant to be a coalescence of traits that teenage Japanese boys—and salarymen pining for the schoolboy romance they missed out on—find appealing, sprinkled with just enough gap moe to make them seem better than perfect. They all have the same personality. They all serve the same narrative function. They're all fucking boring. And they all deserve to lose. And I'm saying this as an aggrieved Himafag who no longer even gives a shit if she wins.
>>288450367mind broken by nice girls; sorry your crush turned you down, anon.
>>288446878>branded apronThat's basically a marriage contract.
>>288450688No, it's a business contract because Himari wants an employee, not a partner. Iemori would spend more time with Tsubome trying to co-ordinate a date than being able to talk to Himari.
>>288450367you could say the same about characters like hima and chitoge. theyre just a maniac pixie dream girls, two sides of the same coin. both hima and honoka are meant to be perfect in story. throw in the third heroine and she happens to be the most aggressive/sexually-confident and tends to be the first to lose. see marika/kanna. its all the same shit
>>288450737You won't hear any argument from me. It's all the same shit to some extent. But at least those characters can facilitate interactions and storylines that are actually fun to read. To Love Ru, for example, would have been fucking pointless if not for all the insane heroines causing wanton shenanigans at every opportunity. Haruna could never have carried that series on her own, and she was only able to be entertaining by way of getting caught up in the bullshit caused by other characters than herself. Her only character trait besides liking Rito was being afraid of ghosts. And they squeezed as much comedy out of that as they could before no longer bothering with it.
HimaTen also makes me think about the other tri-route romcom out right now and Kusonoki going through its own bullshit with the trio getting written weirdly. Kusonoki and Honoka both self-sabotaging to clear the way for Himari/Hebikawa to take an undeserved center stage while the obvious late introducion loser of Moe/Kanna are there just to suffer and actually actively pursue the MC to show the audience that girls do find him attractive.
>>288450891I haven't read Kusunoki in ages. Does it really look to be moving toward Hebikawa endgame? I fucking hated her.
>>288450870>Haruna could never have carried that series on her ownYet she was the most popular among nip readers.
>>288447037That's the dumbest concept for a photo book ever
>>288451084Sure. Because she was the sane one in a harem of psychopaths. Nips love that shit. Turn TLR into a mono romcom between a guy who has too many accidental perv moments and his middle school crush and it doesn't make it past 3 volumes in 2007-era WSJ. The other characters provided the spotlight for Haruna to become as popular as she did. And even then, it's not like she BTFO'd the rest of the cast the way Mafuyu did.
>>288450950Yea, MC and Kusonoki went skating and small kiss due to slipping on ice and from there she started acting weird and reclusively towards him. All the while the author has been redemption arcing Hebikawa something first with pity points about a shitty family situation, but she's still being the same manipulative girl she's always been so it's hard to want her to win.
>>288448128that is how women work yes
>>288451273>but she's still being the same manipulative girl she's always been so it's hard to want her to winI remember her being worse than manipulative. She was downright callous to the extent it bordered on sociopathy. Like, she was genuinely incapable of recognizing how cruel she was, and very obviously got her rocks off making the MC uncomfortable. She was intensely unlikable. Even if she grows as a person, I don't see how you could salvage her likability enough to want her to be in a relationship with the MC.
>>288449629He wouldn't have accepted her feelings right then even if she confessed in person, he's been waffling about Himari for the past 4-5 chapters. No way in hell Tenichi would just ignore that and agree to date Honoka on the spot.
>>288450950No, of course not. The MC has been simping for Kusunoki for a few months now and the last few chapters were here trying to mental gymnastic why she wants to fuck him even though it'll hurt Moe.Snek is not even in the running, the MC doesn't even think she's sincere.
>>288451328She's currently doing The Joker "one bad day is all it takes" philosophy to heart trying to push MC and Kusonoki to the edge to make them act as shitty as she does to prove that her life isn't some tragic situation and how people normally act.
>>288447216>go and tell him what you wantTo make her clean again?
Lemon got rejected yesterday >>288424850What are the chances Himari gets rejected next week?
>>288451486I had high hopes for this week's chapter to make logical sense. Unfortunately, seems like we're locked into the Himaroute even though makes the absolute least sense of any of the choices. Even Tsubome and Iemori make more sense than Himari.
>>288449300Himari needs a little more Himari ass herself.
>>2884514860
>>288451486All "editor ruined the series" accusations will be null and void if Ono makes Iemori confess to Himari. He has no reason to do so besides The Writer Said So. She has done nothing to indicate romantic feelings towards him or actively pursue him. All she's done is brag about her businesses to him and tell him how important she is.
>>288451697>All she's done is brag about her businesses to him and tell him how important she is.Well that's not true. She also took steps to grow closer and improve their relationship by... firing him from his job. What a fucking idiot. I can't believe it took this long for someone to call her out on-panel and tell her that she's been going about everything the exact fucking wrong way. But we only have like 3 chapters left, and it's impossible to have a satisfying conclusion at this point. So this is gonna be a dumpster fire no matter who wins.
>>288451800Yea, normally I find it irritating when a romcom has ~fin~ in the chapter where they confess or kiss, but Himaten needs to end asap at this point. Writing has completely lost it and even though the most logical ending seems to have been blown-up, even if he goes to Honoka there's not enough time for a good resolution.
No matter who wins, Tenichi will clean the wedding venue.
>>288452233This is seemingly supposed to be the last volume. And I believe it should only cover up to chapter 95. So we should be literally a month from this clusterfuck actually ending. God I hope Yukiko Nozawa's maternity leave ends soon... At least Mayotuna is back on Tuesday.
>>288452257Good post. Actually kek'd
>>288452257Tenichi turning down both Honoka and Himari only to start his cleaning business and re-unite with Kanna during one of her shoots.The best ending possible.
>>288452361I would fly to Japan and suck Genki Ono's cock on the spot if he had the raw testicular fortitude to do this.
>>288452381He has no reason to turn down Honoka, he likes her and he knows she likes him back. This whole month bullshit to get things settled with Himari never made any sense and is why Ono is a hack who deserved to have been axed 60 chapters ago.
>>288452470As a Himafag, I regrettably agree. All these last 30 or so chapters have done is hammer home that she's not only an emotional mess, but that she lacks the capacity to commit to a real relationship. I REALLY don't want Honoka to fucking win though. So I'll take a shot in the mouth in service of a dark horse Kanna victory. One last shot of Kanna's kannas...
>>288452470>He has no reason to turn down Honoka, he likes her and he knows she likes him back.this happened in nisekoi lol. raku thinks about how he would be happy with kosaki but chitoge brings a certain spice to his life
>>288452530The "spice" that Himari brings to Tenichi's life is cleaning her apartment.
>>288452553she has her own company and is a professional model lol, thats the spice.
>>288452530>brings a certain spice to his lifeHaving to call your GF's assistant every time you want to schedule a cuddle is not spice. It's a fucking burden.
>>288452599and he's a broke guy who cleans houses. hate to break it to you, but female breadwinners are a mess of a relationship, you can already see she doesn't think of him as a person but as an employee. that's not a basis for a partner, she just wants a convenience that she can turn on and off at will.
>>288451486Sadly low, Iemori has figured out he likes all three girls, and her name IS in the title.
>>288452674lol in nisekoi chitoge took after her mom and became a successful professional business woman who travels for work while raku stayed in japan. this is literally just a love letter to nisekoi.>but female breadwinners are a mess of a relationship,this is not real life lol, in real life a nip guy would probably pick honoka who is the most traditional of the girls
>>288452714>Iemori has figured out he likes all three girlsThat's what he claimed in a conversation with Himeno 40 fucking chapters ago, sure. But literally nothing came of it and his interactions with both Kanna and Himari since then started that he literally fucking forgot that he caught feelings for both of them.
might as well do a route ending. one chapter for each girl
>>288452750>in real life, people pick to date those who like them backyes, that is how real life works. Himari doesn't care for him and Kanna was turned down because Tenichi doesn't like her that way.
>>288452819>who like them backkanna likes him and he still rejected her tho. people date if there are mutual feelings on some level, once he finds out himari likes him, he'll pick her over honoka
>>288452819Himari obviously likes the guy. Ono has just done a shit job of showing it for half the manga. We saw her affections for him grow in a believable way early on, then it just went nowhere.
>>288452524As a Himafag, I support Hima
>>288453159I no longer feel like Ono wants me to support my favorite heroine. :,)
>>288446902>continue to throw Tsubone under the bus with a lie for no good reason.
>>288453465I don't understand why Ono has made her so unlikable. Is he trying to soften the blow for a Honoka win?
>>288454423She's always been a selfish brat. Her main motivating factor for all this was "oh, Honoka loves him but I like having him around when I feel sad after girlbossing"
>>288454521That's just patently untrue. She catches feelings for Tenichi pretty early on in the manga. And it's perfectly serviceably written how she gets to that point. Liking a guy who brings structure and stability to a part of your life is a perfectly normal way for a woman to fall in love.
>>288454561>likes the guy>HES MY EMPLOYEEI hope to never find someone with Himari's love
>>288454648Now this I actually agree with. It being a long of conflict for her was interesting initially. But how she's gonna about reconciling the whole thing is just a god damn disaster.
