Chapter 94: Honoka and TenichiRead the chapter here: https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1029445The school trip has started! That means Iemori has read Honoka's love letter now!
>>288719154Hono oh no...
>>288719183Huh, so they're going to Kyoto for the school trip. I guess it's a classic choice, Taiki from Blue Box also went there for their school trip arc
>>288719154LETS GOOOO HONOKA!
>>288719289But Himenono, you're not trying to disguise yourself either...
>>288719320
>>288719359Hono oh no!
>>288719394That's an interesting take on romance...
>>288719425

>>288719588
>more flashbacks
>>288719627Translation note:Iemori's name is written as 家守 which is composed from two words 家 (house/home) and 守 (protect), so Iemori literally means "protect the home"
Rejection incoming
>>288719154How many chapters are left?
>>288719719Now, this is a bit tricky to explain. Honoka's family name is Kanai, written with the kanji 叶, which means "to come true (of a wish, prayer, etc.)". However, Honoka makes a pun here. The word "Kanai" can also be written as 家内, which means "(my) wife / spouse"Maybe that's a big stretch, but who can blame her? She fell head over heels for him after all
>>288719884
>>288719913I guess Yokomizo and Mayu figured her crush around this time (when Iemori missed his middle school trip)
>>288719735meds
Last page. We're almost at the end of volume 11 (probably chapter 97), so we've only got three more chapters left. The end is near and so is our weekly Himaten thread. Thank you for always reading along with me. See you next week!>>288719950This is it. Will Honoka fumble it? Will Iemori chicken out? Stay tune!Theme songs:[MV] "Himaten" x "I Want To Be Loved" by Yumchahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fGfdqdZxW4[MV] "Himaten" x "Eternal Unrequited Love" by Yumchahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsXNT6RNzzY
>>288719736Like I said here >>288720145The current chapter is going to be included in volume 11 and based on previous volume's length, volume 11 should end at chapter 97. So it probably only has three more chapters left
So little time left and he wastes a chapter on a recap of something we've already known. Also Tenichi doesn't really have the appearance or demeanor of someone happy so RIP Honoka, victim of a shit author and shit editor.
its not shit since it was always bound to be househusband propagandatake a look at that chapter, when iemori was hired by kanai's mom, the guy was pissed at kanai for cleaning and wanting to make dinner with him, it was never gonna work
>my low-key first crushI take back what I said about wanting Honoka to win. I now want him to realize Kanna was the right choice all along and go chase after her.
>>288720654>busty teenage gravure model or rich cute teenage girlalways go for the money, looks betray
>>288720145THIS IS IT!SHE'S GOT THIS IN THE BAG!
>>288720145>), so we've only got three more chapters left. The end is near and so is our weekly Himaten threadWait a second, you mean this is going to be just another "will they wont they-->confession->ending" romcom? Fucking hell, I am glad I put it on hold, fucking piece of Jump slop as usual, why did I think it could be anything different?
>>288720907There's Blue Box where the confession happened and the characters are going out in the middle of the series. It's about to end now though.
>>288720907I'd like to think that if the editor wasn't swapped there would be a confession soon after the fireworks and then we'd get some date chapters and how their relationship would function under her work/model pressures leading to on/off tension.Instead we get the most trite and trope romcom and all the charm of the first 40 chapters evaporating
>>288720145CFbros... how are we feeling?
>>288720710Kanna loves Iemori. Himari likes having an employee.They are not the same.
>>288720098You're gonna need yours
>>288721158Everyone has been so unbelievable not into each other that at this point any pairing could function because nobody is written like a human being.
>>288720978I gave that a chance but I found the relationships lacked credibility, is like the writer could only pretend to write about relationships.>>288721123Maybe? Gotta see how things would work out if he wrote under a different magazine, kinda like the writer for Chained slave, when he writes that, it feels like is written by someone who has never done Sexual education or even seen genitals, while his other work is more consistent and actually follows through on his premise.
>>288721158Losing hard, they didn't show Tenichi's reaction to reading the letter and he doesn't have the facial expression of someone about to accept a confession, its over for Honoka, she needs to be more like Satsuki from Watari-kun and go go for the kill, Honoka's letter was the worst move she could make because Himari got sad she will win...and she's the main girl
Never before has a chapter been so unnecessary. Is he required to make a minimum chapter count so the volume isn't too thin? Just fucking kill Honoka's hopes and dreams and force your unromantic girlboss win, Ono.Fucking hack.
This shit is still going?
God I'm so glad this fucking manga is nearly over.
>>288721158Honoka isn't a CF. She's a middle school crush. There's a huge difference.
>>288721282>but I found the relationships lacked credibilityThat's because Chinatsu sucks and Taiki's affections toward her felt vapid and hollow. So pretty much the same as Tenichi and his affections toward Haruna.
>>288721535>nearly over.ahahahahahahahahahah
>>288721665It's confirmed to be ending, retard. There's 3 chapters left tops. Unless somehow Ono squeezes in another volume, and then it's 12-13 chapters left. Either way, not much more to go.
>>288721633The only romance that feels real is the one between Yami and Yuu in Imasara and it's a drama. I can't even think of a romcom out right now with an actual relationship
>>288721820>The only romance that feels real is the one between Yami and Yuu in ImasaraCouldn't disagree more. It's just emotionally manipulative melodrama. The lowest order of soap opera bullshit. Which is to be expected, given that all drama written by Maruto is empty hackery.
>>288721633Hina a shit
>>288721875you are very mad you got baited by CF
>>288721906Agreed. Chinatsu is just worse.
>>288721917Correct. I've been baited by that fucker and his hack bullshit twice. Although I was only mad the first time.
>>288721925Chinatsu is a cute and a winner
>>288722126She's boring as fuck, but as long as you like her there all that matters.
>>288722179She's kino and not boring
>>288722584You're wrong, but as long as you like here there's all that matters.
>>288723014Sorry I'm not wrong.
>>288721820I can't say whether they are real but there are quite a few romcoms I have been enjoying ouside the mainstream, shame some of them got an early closure like Chie Aru Koibito and Nibanme na Boku to Ichiban no Kanojo and Classmate no Moto Idol ga.
>>288723172On chapter 3 of that first one and it's really nice so far. Looking forward to seeing why it's only 10 long then I'll give the second a read.
>>288723623I reckon the first one should end on a satisfying enough note having achieved more than what most Romcoms do, but that other one I fear is going to be more like "fuck you read the LN".On actually active ones, I have been quite happy so far with: Osoraku Kanojo wa Ore no Aniki wo Neratteruand Ushiro no Seki no Gyaru ni Sukarete Shimatta. - Mou Ore wa Dame KamoshiranaiA nice one too is "Maigo ni Natteita Youjo wo Tasuketara, Otonari ni Sumu Bishoujo Ryuugakusei ga Ie ni Asobi ni Kuru you ni Natta Ken ni Tsuite" but not as good, feels oddly paced.
>>288723880Yea, just finished it. I would've liked 1 more chapter just to have them be together but it did what it set out to do. Very nice overall.Thanks for the reccs, a Himaten thread turned out to have some good content for once
>>288720145I get the objectification fetish. But why always the same doormat? Why not office chair or vacuum cleaner or public toilet. There are so many option.
>>288724415kek
Himari can still win
Fact:This one panel was included to retain readers' interest
>>288724544At least one nip killed himself when Kanna was rejected desu.
>>288724544Pictured: the one person who likes Iemori and was honest about it
>>288724394Oh yea, forgot to mention, this feels like a test run to gauge interest and it failed to pass the mark and was quietly finished. There's enough plot hooks that makes me think this was aiming to be something longer but for whatever reason was wrapped up.
>>288720145Why is the MC such a scumbag?Don't lead Honoka on like this if you are not into her.
>>288724916She did ask him to wait until today to open the letter and read it. But yea, the month of waiting BS due to him, Himari and Honoka was some bullshit
>>288720145mama you're about to get rejected but its okay. someone better will come along
>>288725049>timeskip 15 years ahead>Honoka hires a homecleaner and Tenichi shows up with a visible ring tan and a sad aura and apperance>realizes who hired him>"oh...." *tears rolls down his cheek* ~Fin~
Honoka won
>>288725080>timeskip 15 years ahead>business run by AI>porn made by AI>songs performed by AIOnly toilet cleaning requires human labor and Tenichi has the high status.
>>2887238801st: I like this too, don't like the whole "mystery" why she likes the brother instead of the ikemen2nd: out of nowhere insane jealousy sucks, but their relationship is super nice3rd: not sure if I've read this one, but it reminds me of the other High Schooler who take care of their siblings romcom that ended recently that was nice. a little too heavy on the child propoganda and the romcom was like 4th thing to consider in the storyKoori no Hime wa Chiisana Hidamari de Tokasaretai
>>288719154did narusegawa naru do it? did she win da keitarou?
>>288725311Japan got robotoilets yearsbago, bro
>>288719950Honoka has the cuckquean mentality desu, she likes waching Tenichi help others not herself. She will ask Himarin's approval to sit in the cuck chair while Ten fucks Himarin's Girl-Boss pussy, she might even ask for the honor of cleaning Tenichi's cum from Himarin's CEO's vago.
>>288720145I haven't read since Chapter 58, might as well reread I guess.
>>288725427The only way the winner of that fuckass manga could have been more obvious is if her name had literally been Hina.
>>288727314Don't. It's not worth it.
>>288727314there's been absolutely 0 romantic progress since the fireworks display inside Himari's apartment. They shoved 2 characters into the story who never stood and chance and never made an impact. You're caught up.
>>288727858Uh who? I remember seeing a teacher or something.
>>288727858That about sums it up. Also there's a cat. The cat is scarcely relevant, though it did at least result in cute Himari moments.
>>288727891Presumably Himeno and Sumire.
>>288727891Teacher and Gravure
>>288726674>cuckold fantasyhimafag everyone
>>288727908>>288727921Are the tits for them at least good?
>>288727929Kanna was a great character, but when you introduce someone in like the 50th chapter, they're dead meat and exist only to lose while causing things to move. The only reason people are pissed at this shit ending is because the one character who's liked the MC and let him known he was liked was killed off by an early confession.
>>288727921Kanna was introduced WAY before Himeno and the fireworks festival.
>>288727990>but when you introduce someone in like the 50th chapterShe was introduced in chapter 11.
>>288727990Oh I thought Gravure was someone other than Kanna wtf?
>>288728144It's just Kanna, though Himeno did a bit of modeling. If you really want to see Kanna get strung along before being soul-crushingly rejected, then yeah go ahead and re-read the manga I guess. It's about to end anyway.
god this is dragging, glad it's almost over
>>288728401Don't smile because it's over, anon. Cry because it happened in the first place.
>>288728235I'm fine with that(?)
>>288720145I like these AI mvs
>>288720145Did both Honoka and Himari use the word 初恋 there?
Author's comment this weekHimenono x Honoka shimaidon when?
>>288730810It seems he's not trying hard enough. They don't look the same after all.
>>288728401>this is draggingkind of but at least they'll let it end, unlike blue box
>>288731148Blue Box seems to be ending pretty soon as well. WSJ really needs to scramble to fill out its ToC.
>>288731148We could have had more interesting developments than what was happening here...
>>288720145I hope she wins just because I'm interested in seeing what happens.
So has idol teacher lady not fallen in love with MC? I quit when she joined
Huh this story is going to be shorter than I expected.Oh well stroing start and pretty meh finale, I will miss the art though, I like it.Will look forward to Ono next work.
>>288734483It's weird to see Ono's career, he started in high school with a romcom one-shot, then debuted in Jump with a sport (axed), after that he worked as assistant for Akane and Blue Box, made a historical battle fantasy one-shot in Jump Giga, but then came back to Jump with a romcom (Hima-Ten!). This was his latest one-shot that was published in Jump Giga. The heroine looked like a proto-Himenono x Himari, and the MC is just straight up Iemori. It'd be cool if he came back to Jump with this one.
>>288733868She's not winning anon, MC doesn't look happy even though he just told her he read the letter.
>>288734866I didn't say she was gonna win lol
>>288727316naru-kei!naroukei?
>>288725362Glad to hear you liked it....thought I am not certain if you mean the "me the number 2" classmate Manga or the Wise lover.>1st: I like this too, don't like the whole "mystery" why she likes the brother instead of the ikemenAuthor could still completely fuck things up at any time.>Koori no Hime wa Chiisana Hidamari de Tokasaretaioh this one is finished, ought to start reading it soon then.
