Do you think it is a coincidence or not that the anons who are still into Kanokari are also fans of manga like Dare Demo, Guilty Circle, and Aitsu no Kanojo among others? I'm noticing a pattern.

Idc. I just bring spoilers.
Kek, Mayo and Medaka not out yet.

>>288598110
>Break next week.
Reiji's break or magazine break?

>>288598164
Reiji's break.
Seems editors finally told him to let the volume releases catch up with the weekly serialization. You know what does that mean.

>>288598186
>Reiji's break.
So we're actually in endgame. Good!

>>288598142

I want for really horrible things to happen to Reiji Miyajima (over what he did to Kazuya, and the fact that Reiji's married and a father. He's a fucking hypocrate). Also I firmly believe that his shit is an industry plant.

Super-T (of DareDemo) tried to be an NTR person but went FUCK THAT SHIT and turned it into an actual comedy about a guy the girls he fucked, and his libido. I honor him.

Guilty Circle is basically "Ow The Edge."

Are you mentioning Aitsu No Kanojo because "Do You Like Big Girls" is on hiatus and also a concurrent anime?

>>288598110
>Ruka crying on cover
>Ruka thinks Umi and Chizuru would be good together
>Blurting out Kazuya is her "boyfriend"
Yep, she's fucked, Umi will somehow convince her to work with him, Kazuya will get mad at her scheming with Umi and she gets dumped
>>288598186
AXEMAN COMETH

Every time I see a Kanokari thread in the catalog, I pray (as my eyes scan the thread title) that I'll see an "END" at the end of the thread title. So far my prayers haven't been answered. This shit manga somehow is at chapter 428.

>>288598446
Mayotuna is on break

>>288598354
The "accident" Ruka forced him into, nah Ruka is fucked, this alliance with Umi is so obviously Reji's way of eliminating her, whatever Ruka says to Chizuru will turn out to be a nothingburger or it will push Chizuru to take action and claim Kazuya

If we really are in endgame then Ruka and Umi forming a cuck alliance makes sense

>>288598440

Bigger and better franchises are popping up.

Just move on from this piece of shit. It'll either repeat the same plot points and be bland, or it'll get a shadow-axe. Like a "author dies" axe.

>>288598495
I just am always baffled by how this shit managed to reach over 400 chapters. It doesn't matter how it ends at this point.
It should have never even gotten past 100 chapters or even 50 with how pathetic it was as far back as chapter 1 with him literally getting an erection at the thought of his ex-girlfriend having sex with another man.

Super T is doing the same thing as kanokari where instead of Kazu somehow gaslighting himself to keep "trying his best" for chorizo Agawa keeps putting down the MC because even being able to bag 5 hot chicks is not enough to get you out of loser status.

>>288598661
>Kano
The sea finally breaks Ruka down.

The cover illustration shows Ruka crying alone at Hawaiianz.

When Kai came to visit her at karaoke,
Ruka didn't even remember who he was when he called out to her, and he looked like a total playboy, so she was wary, thinking he was trying to hit on her.
After a short pause, she remembered he was Chizuru's fellow actor and said...
Kai was aware that Ruka had appeared in the movie from the CF and praised her acting, saying it was very good.

He then directly asked about her relationship with Kazuya.
She can't tell him because Kazuya would get angry if she did. That's impossible.
"That's rude, goodbye," Ruka tries to end the conversation quickly, but Kai says that Chizuru and Kazuya seem to be getting along well.
Kai egged Ruka on, saying that their relationship was rapidly progressing and they were close to dating.
He revealed that he had seen them arm in arm, looking very close, and urged her to DM him on Instagram, which Ruka agreed to, bringing us to the present.

(1/2)

>>288598746
Ruka, now a little cat, pushes Kai away, telling him not to get the wrong idea.
Kai, who was talking to her casually, emphasized that he liked Chizuru, so she asked, "Who do you like?" When asked if he has someone, he laughs and replies that he's devoted.
Ruka, not trusting him, strongly criticizes him as frivolous, to which Kai asks about Kazuya.
Naturally, Ruka denies it, saying Kazuya isn't her boyfriend, but Kai retorts that Kazuya seems to get along well with both Chizuru and Ruka, so isn't he frivolous?

In her confusion, Ruka accidentally lets slip that Kazuya is her boyfriend.
Ruka takes it back, saying it was just a figure of speech and an example.
She wonders if it would be better to just tell Chizuru the truth, as Kai might find out everything if things continue like this.
Kai's words that Kazuya and Chizuru have met alone and are getting closer sting Ruka, and she feels pain, thinking that she'll never be able to win Chizuru's heart.
She begins to think that everything she's done is stupid, and she finds it unfair that Chizuru has come this far despite saying she wasn't interested in him before.
Why can't it be Kai and Chizuru? They're both actors, so they'd make a good match, and finally, Ruka can no longer stop herself.

Kazuya's girlfriend... is revealed to be a temporary girlfriend.

Break next week. The next chapter is going to be incredibly intriguing.

(2/2)

Tl;dr, Umi successfully weaponized and made her spill the beans and have a flipout.
PS: Kai = Umi. MTL keeps fucking it on purpose, although i think Kai sounds more as an alpha name than Umi

>>288598769
>on purpose
Not really, it's just a standalone 海 will get translated as Umi or rather Sea, but when it stands next to other kanji it will treat it as part of a bigger sequence and will by usually read as kai.

She's not wrong, everything she did was stupid and Chizuru is unfair: She is unfair to Kazuya, to Ruka and to Umi and despite that she will get everything anyway. Life ain't fair.

FOUR FUCKING HUNDRED. You already know the rest, what is the mangaka's goal here? 1000 chapters of blue balling?

Better translated spoilers put the last line
>Kazuya's girlfriend... is revealed to be a temporary girlfriend.
As
>Kazuya's girlfriend... his privisionsl girlfriend", she revealed.

Ruka fell for Umi's mindgames and revealed her secret. Shit gonna get hested up, but hopefully this is Ruka and Umi's swan song.

>>288599250
>why wouldn't she see a desperate, thoughtless guy who just happens to be banging five girls as a bit of an idiot
Because she thinks Gotou must keep stuck in his position as a cuck simply due to not having physical or mental qualities, not an imbecile who mindlessly fucks everything that crosses his path and feels like the hottest shit in the universe for that.
A reminder she caused his ED because she told him he has no rights to act arrogant bc he doesn't have neither the looks or charisma and when he does shit that Inukai, Yuki or Agawa's chad sex buddies do, he comes off as cringey instead of cool.

Tl;dr Agawa's reminding Gotou about the school social hierarchies like the dtacy she is. Realistic woman as expected, just like any stacy from a californian valley or a Tokyo high school.

Kek, Ruka crying alone at the hawaiians.

Same as Kazuya.

She's his maturity parallel after all.

>>288599179
>Chizuru is unfair: She is unfair to Kazuya, to Ruka and to Umi
How has Chizuru been unfair to Umi when that faggot kept running away?

>>288599228
>but hopefully this is Ruka and Umi's swan song.
It 100% is, Umi is going to convince Ruka to side with him, he's already successfully made her slip-up, Ruka will take Umi's side, her thoughts this chapter make it clear she wants Chizuru out of the way, Kazuya will find out and break up with Ruka.

Meanwhile Umi will try to use the knowledge he's gained to get Chizuru but Chizuru will brush him off because:
1. She already knows about Ruka
2. She will remember Mini's words about Kazuya being stolen away
All Ruka and Umi will accomplish in the end is pushing Chizuru and Kazuya closer together

>>288599228
What is Umi even going to do with this information?
>Umi: "hey Chizuru, did you know that the guy you like has a provisional girlfriend that he hides behind your back?"
>Chizuru: "Yeah, I was the one who set them up in the first place"
That conversation will be really awkward really soon for Umi
>>288599357

>That conversation will be really awkward really soon for Umi
It will be awkward when she'll learn how Ruka gave Kazuya a handy even though he supposedly broke up with Ruka already and considers kissing cheating.

She will tell Chizuru, that's more than enough, the point is to make Kazuya look like he is fooling around with multiple girls, as for Umi it's up to him to seduce Chizuru when she'll be down after learning Kazuya is a philanderer, Mini's warning will work against Kazuya, we'll probably learn how her dad was a cheater as well, so that we'll finally have a full picture for why Chizuru was so distrustful of Kazuya and how she'll be convinced she was always in the right to keep her guard up. .

>>288599792
>She will tell Chizuru
I don't think she will tell her, at least out of the blue, maybe if Umi lies about the situation to push Ruka further, another situation is that maybe Chizuru presses Kazuya/Mini about Ruka and they end up confessing what happened but I don't think Ruka will do it

What if "the last great wave" is literally the Ippo retirement arc of Kanokari?

Umi whatever scheme is breeding with Ruka will make kekzuya stop thinking about her for good.

When you look at the current situation I don’t think it’s right to continue liking Chizuru. There’s just not enough coming from her side to actually be worth it. And it actually seems like she’s just stirring the pot when it just happens to be convenient for her, she’s really no different than Mami in that area when you think about it.

>she’s gonna *delusional schizo rant*
Don’t really doubt Reiji will continue to mistreat Ruka’s character like he has but your headcanon is a bit much. Ruka has no need to scheme when she can just confront Chizuru later again. All this talk about:
>when she finally breaks up herself
>when she realizes
>when x finally mans up and breaks up with her
hasn’t actually happened the way you continued to imagining it. Maybe you should just give up on that for the time being.

>>288598265
>and she gets dumped
She can't get dumped. If she could she would have been dumped ages ago. She carries the pants in that relationship and she's the sole person deciding if/when it's over or not.

>>288604339
Easy as Kazuya showing his shimoda (his true hotheaded and emotionally violent self) self in front of Ruka. Chizuru's ok with having an unga bunga husband who throws fists without thinking, but what about Ruka?? Doubt she'll accept an unga bunga bf who's trigger happy to stain his hands for what he thinks it's the righteous thing to do. She has Kazuya as some dort of prince charming, so she has to see the devil inside him.
That's the only way she'll let him go, by seeing Kazuya going burn-it-all-down against someone.

>>288604498
Not him, but as a Rukafag I hope that you are right and she is the one that drops his ass, it would be even better if it's as humiliating to Kazuya as you describe

The greatest tragedy of this manga is that a cute girl like Ruka needs to work so hard to earn the love of a walking cuck chair like Kazuya and feels inferior to a bipolar lying hoe like Chizuru.

Also, there's literally no way for Chizuru to defend herself from what Ruka says here because it's true. It's completely unfair that she's suddenly pouncing on Kazuya after claiming their relationship was professional. I can only imagine what asspull excuse Reiji gives to justify it when she's confronted, if she ever is lol.

Also that cover page made me sad >>288598746. Fuck Kazuya and Chizuru for making her cry without doing anything to comfort her, and fuck all the Ruka haters who act like she's some demon for being in love. My heart is gonna break when I see it. I hope they both receive some actual consequences in the coming arc.

>>288612475
>The greatest tragedy of this manga is that a cute girl like Ruka needs to work so hard to earn the love of a walking cuck chair like Kazuya and feels inferior to a bipolar lying hoe like Chizuru.
Ruka doesn’t just feel inferior. She IS inferior. She can never take princess Chizuru’s place so it’s better for her and everyone involved to let herself get hit by a truck and die immediately. Nobody will miss her least of all the very one person who should. This is the ending Reiji really really wants.

>>288612475

>>288612414
>Be A Better Man arc
Officially called the "Most Exciting arc".
It's not about being a better man, it's about Kazuya being ambushed by the other girls while he tries to "self improve" for the wrongest of reasons (impress a girl that doesn't even exist), despite of his body craving for those things the other girls want to him.
These Ruka+Umi chapters just show how shallow said self improvement is because what Kazuya hasn't, or doesn't want to realize because it goes against his naive and toddler-ish intentions, is that his real growth must begin from stopping jerking off, identify his emotions and learn to supress them, learn to give up on impossibles and focus all his attention and time in tangible things instead of chimeras, but in a healthy way, not in his stubborn and obsessed ones, and the first and most important: give up on dreaming and accept reality as hoe it is.
Basically become a bug eyed jaded salaryman who just goes through the motions, a cog in the machine.

>>288614350
Ah, and forgot the most important one: Kazuya must learn he can't expect to make everybody happy with his decision and has to learn, even by force, to be cruel, ruthless and learn to cut ties.

>>288612475
>I can only imagine what asspull excuse Reiji gives to justify it when she's confronted, if she ever is lol.
Kazuya gonna dirt his hand s and do something cruel (and even cross some law and order lines) simply to prove Mizuhara it's a mistake she has to feel sorry for Ruka and Mami. That's the only way Chizuru will stop feeling remorse: if Kazuya shows his true spiteful, selfish, impulsive and even psychopathic self, but masking it under doing something self-righteous.

What will that self-righteous thing be??

>>288614350
>Officially called the "Most Exciting arc".

I mean the "Be A Better Man arc" name is just a meme because of his goal list. In the narrative is him getting prepared for the second date and doing a bunch of unnecessary things mixed with actually useful things like job hunting and getting his license.

The way Kazuya treats her never sat right with me, he treats her like shit for no apparent reason, which is why it always felt like a parallel to how Chizuru is treating Kazuya. As the story progressed we get an inkling of why Chizuru is so distrustful of Kazuya, but Kazuya still is treating Ruka as a chore, but still never dumped her, it seems it was all for this arc, so Reiji better deliver something good with it.

He doesn't show his seethe, but instead channels it.
Unlike the couple of emotional children who always lose control of themselves.
A reminder Kazuya just ragequitted when Chizuru rejected him and when he coincidentially found her, he scted a lot more aggressive and pushy.

Ruka, i love you, but you're not convincing anyone like that (or at least, that works when you're talking with a fucking moron like Kazuya

UH OH RUKAKEKS, YOU SAID SHE WOULDN'T START SCHMEMING?

Hmm... I swear this page is a direct copy or trace from an earlier chapter but can't exactly pinpoint it. Guess Reiji's panel composition is repetitive.

When the Umi creature wants to hunt for a woman to sex with he dresses this way to camouflage himself to make himself seem less threatening than he really is.

>>288617478
Wouldn't it be funny if Ruka impulsively tries working with Umi next chapter but Umi just brushes her off and mentions he already got rejected

This is the guy who dumped her previous gf to chase Chizuru's skirt btw.

>>288617063
I just realized. In Umi's eyes, Kazuya is absolutely slaying it with both Chizuru and Ruka. Is that envy?

>>288617188
>>288617478
Kazuya is at blame here. He's been a HUGE asshole towards her, which has led her into desperation.

I've never seen an artist hate his own character as much as Reiji does to Ruka, what's worse is that it's completely unjust, shit man I wish I could console her

>>288616941
Ruka calling herself smart for remembering Umi is really cute!

>>288616968
The worst thing is that Kazuya couldn't even muster the energy to hate her did to how much he doesn't care about her

>>288618506
>unjust
She literally deserves it

>>288617024
>>288617039
Ruka is incredibly keen when it comes to revealing how people how people truly are, just by talking to Umi she knows that he has told a million girls that he loves them even though is fake or knowing that he was bullshitting when he said he was very loyal

>>288617063
It pains me to admit it but Umi is right about Kazuya and Ruka should leave his bum ass, not to mention that if Umi was shittalking Ruka in front of Kazuya he wouldn't say anything to defend her, sad

>>288616898
She doesn't deserve this, being alive that is.

>>288617096
Why the fuck is she doing all of this for a couple that wouldn't even care if she died? Kazuya wouldn't even say thank you to her for fucking lying for his "real" relationship with Chizuru
>>288617124
>It's not fair, Chizuru-san! You said you weren't interested and yet you fell for him anyway!
Finally someone calls Chizuru for this, Kazuya treats her worse but Chizuru doesn't stray that much, how Ruka hasn't killed Chizuru is beyond me given how much of a bitch Chizuru is

>>288617857
Cut by the same scissor.
This arc is showing us Kazuya and the ribbon menace are too similar, therefore, incompatible with each other.

>>288618862
>that if Umi was shittalking Ruka in front of Kazuya he wouldn't say anything to defend her, sad
But AIIIEEEEEEE if Umi badmouths Chizuru in front of him. Kazuya literally might end murdering him in the hottest and most psychoparhic blood

>>288617165
OH NO NO NO NO, KOREANBROS?!?!?!? WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?

>>288617188
They could plan to murder Chizuru and I wouldn't give a fuck, it's about time that she started prioritizing herself

>>288618645
No, in fact, she deserves reparations for this

>>288619145
>gibbs me reparations
rukafags are niggers confirmed

>>288619145
No, rukanigger, she deserves death.

>>288619213
>Chizurufag is a /pol/fag
Who would have guess it?
>>288619299
Why?

>>288619315
>Why?
Because that, even if she knows her circumstance, she doesn't want to accept it and is dead set into twisting fate in her favor. Anyone who tries to change destiny ends meeting a cruel fate

>>288617149
>>288617165
We didn't see her eyes when saying she's his temporary girlfriend.
Maybe she did the yandere dead gaze.

>>288619368

Bruh she's forcing herself into somerhing already fated. She's getting her own tragedy in her own terms.

Down left panels: Ruka makes the same faces as Kazuya.

>>288616898
NOOOOOOOOOO KAZUYA YOU ABSOLUTE POS

Imagine making the girl who loves you most in the world cry all alone without comforting her. There's no excuse. He needs to get his balls cut off. I honestly cannot believe there are still Kazuya defenders when he does shit like this. The worst part is their excuse is that Ruka "chose to cry" on her own. Complete pieces of shit without a shred of empathy or gratitude. He's never once actually comforted Ruka when she's cried, but we're supposed to believe he's so "kind". Chizuru needs to suffer too, but she actually feels some guilt so she can get a lesser punishment. Reiji, give us the Ruka alternate route already.

>>288616968
Cute Ruka overthinking thoughts

>>288617149
So sad how Kazuya's the only one for Ruka and he won't accept her. At least Chizuru can find someone else.

>>288618862
Unfortunately the truth. He'd autistically freak out if it were Chizuru, though. So sad how she's still clinging to Kazuya's words from 6+ months ago that he's gone against.

>>288620303
Rukaniggers don't have the right to talk. Kazuya's doing right by being an asshole to someone who doesn't respect his boundaries. She has to die to atone for her sins.

>>288619916
>Bruh she's forcing herself into somerhing already fated
So what? Why should this be a reason to hate her?

>>288621008
Because Kazuya wants Chizuru. Nothing else.

>>288617165
>temporary
It's been more than a year already.

>>288620303
>He's never once actually comforted Ruka when she's cried
This reminds me that one time when she first met Mami she cried in front of him and instead of consoling her mother fucker started crying because he thought Mami was going to start hating him
>she's still clinging to Kazuya's words from 6+ months ago that he's gone against.
Not only that, she still clinging to the Kazuya of 1.5(?) years ago, the one that saved her from falling down the stairs only because she was the fake gf of his friend even though modern Kazuya wouldn't even save Mini

>>288621077
>You have to hate Ruka because Kazuya has shittaste

DMM TV announcements in instagram are... such a thing

>>288621690
that's how you sell a show

>>288621372
Yep, exactly what I was thinking of when I wrote that part. He hesitated consoling her when she was crying during the movie arc because of a misunderstanding, and he didn't even try and understand why she cried after meeting Mami. All he did was blush when she said she loved him and worried about whether Mami hated him. Complete piece of shit, I don't know why some people try to justify his behaviour. This is like the third time he's made her cry without comforting her, if you don't count her tearing up while defending him at Hawaiin's or after he and Chizuru filmed the last movie scene together.

I think she knows his true character now and still accepts and loves him for his flaws, but she definitely still looks at him with rose-tinted glasses and thinks he's a better person than he actually is.

>>288617039

The 100kano thread ended before I could post my thoughts on the new girl and now I don't know where to vent!

>>288622271
Chizuru just wants someone who's as much as a shit person as her. That's the point.
Reiji just writes with female mangaka logic.

The more this goes on the worse I feel for Ruka. She doesn't deserve this. And I don't see a good ending for her, which will sour the whole story for me.

>>288625997
>And I don't see a good ending for her
She still is far from surpassing sensei, nino and rui in the humilliation levels.
