>>289340482>maybe keep your eyes on me>shizuki is gonna give her a gift becuase he thought about herhow nice for the snake
What is it with snake girls and having a hime-hairstyle + ribbon combo?
>>289340723It's a common brand of chocolate. Usually you buy individual servings which are small and cheap.
>>289340453>>289340482Gorgeous specimen.Kurokami like an eastern indigo.
>>289341453He's totally going to give her something that shows he was not only paying attention to her in middle school but also that he remembered all this time.And thus, snek will have officially fallen.
>>289340453Guesses on her gift? I can't think of anything other than snake shaped candy/plushie...

>>289343785the difference is hebi is still a little girl whereas her mom is a divorced mess
>>289343785> daddy issues> mommy issues> toxic view on societyWhat could go wrong?
>>289342489Maybe a shortcake like the one he bought for her on her birthday
>>289342489Maybe sweets.
>>289344285A cream pie would be more appropriate this time.

>>289340482Sneks mom 10 chapters from now when boyfriend tries to rape snek
>>289346979it's insane when single moms view their daughters as any other regular woman whose an unspoken rival looking to take her partner.
>>289340463>listen to this daughter>we went straight to banging without dinnerDo moms really?
>>289347080Single mothers, yes. There's a reason they're alone
>>289344465Moe is such a runt. Snake isn't even that tall.
>>289347132She's barely tall enough to go on all the rides at an amusement park.
>>289340723
>>289340503Sign of having a good relationship.
>>289340536Cute>>289340565Cuter
>>289344424>Ponytail
>>289344417Author is finally catching on
Hope the author can pull this series out of its tailspin into the shitpile. Trying to make snek a real heroine was an unfortunate possibility, but it sucks that it happened.
>>289347406exactly
>>289347781It's a harem, anon.
>>289350918How can it be a harem when one girl is destined to lose painfully first, another is her step-dad's onahole and the third will woman moment herself out of a relationship thanks to Grok's advice.
>>289351709More than 2 girls make it a harem. Does not matter what their chances are or if no girls win.To Love Ru ended twice without Rito picking anyone or picking all of them. It is still one of the definitive harem series.
>>289342489A punch in the face
>>289340631why does he have to return anything to this whore? he knows she's just fucking with him and it wasn't in good faith. just ignore her.
>Watari-Kun route of making the sincere nice girl a tragic loser in favour of the unstable girl who treats you poorlyugh
>>289352661Japanese customs + I like him because he's nice + it can't be helped
>>289352661maybe it's also a pretext to talk to her to figure out wtf she's going on about and to get her to go awayI also forget if he knows about her creepy step-dad and might also want to check up on her
>>289352869>unstable girl who treats you poorly>Watari-kunHuh? Do you really mean Satsuki? She would literally do anything for him.
>>289353158He treated F-Cup like shit while chasing after Satsuki while she was ghosting him, not explaining anything and being cold to him. It was female authorslop to the core
>>289352661It's customary to return something.
>>289344259She just needs my cock and she's good as new, anon.
>>289347132>>289347345Goddamn, Moe is so hot.
>>289354782That is why she must suffer and lose. She's going down the Kanna from Himaten path
>>289353126>I also forget if he knows about her creepy step-dad and might also want to check up on herHe knows. Iirc he's seen Snek with him.
>>289353193That sounds quite male in a way.
>>289340463> I want to see you.One has to wonder whether he texted that while he was doing her mom.
>>289354854nah>I'm mysterious, playing hard to get and intentionally put up so many walls that he will fantasize about me to the detriment of his attractive GF who came onto him since I am so amazingly brooding and dark and mysteriousit's the most foid coded male MC romcom
>>289347345you could just sling her over your shoulder and walk offlove moe
>>289355278MC locking onto the tsundere ice queen and disregarding the cute nice girl is extremely common in male-written romance, man. That said, I've never read Watari-kun, so the details there could be more feminine for all I know.
>>289356245do yourself a favour and don't bother reading it. you can watch it since it somehow got a full adaptation over 2 seasons (it cuts out a lot of sorta-filler from near the end of the manga, but it's pretty accurate otherwise)
>>289347345Manga authors will create a cute small tsundere tomboy love interest just for the sole purpose of making her suffer and lose to the main girl and still think they deserve human rights
>>289355278>playing hard to getYou must be either butthurt or seriously retarded if that's your impression of her. She is as submissive and wet for him as possible and is very open about it.
I haven't been following this along, but do we know what happened today snake's bio dad?
@grok is this love?
>>289358233Divorce, that's all we know.
>>289359234This makes me think that maybe her mom cheated.
>>289352661>just ignore herIt goes against the bushido code.
>>289358104Did you somehow forget how he had to basically stalk her and then disguise himself as a classmate to meet her at her hotel after she ran away from him again???
>>289359288Seems more like the other way around
>>289359234Honestly Snek is a quite the qt, would molest/pump and dump.
>>289347080>got banged without getting dinner first>then drank like a fish to end the dayno wonder she's divorced
>>289352661This anon is dishonorabu
>>289352661>>289359343>>289362932I was going to say she could ruin his reputation by painting him as a choco gypper, until I remembered she doesn't give enough of a damn for that.
I love Kusunoki!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>289352661>it wasn't in good faithShe still went out of her way to get him something for Valentine's.
>>289340463>mum also has the eyeswhy is she having any sort of guy trouble?
>>289340723commonly known as a "dud" valentines gift 100% just friends
>>289342489>hit the nail on the head for pinkshit and shortyHe's gonna whiff on snake. I know it.
>>289347345>Exactly 12cm height difference between Keisuke and Hebikawa, they're literally made for each other.
>>289347345>Exactly 12cm height difference between Keisuke and HebikawaThe Snake and the Cat are literally built for each other.
>>289365952>>289365998that's also his penis length
irie cover never ever :(
>>289365824I feel like their reactions indicated something still left to be desired. Like they weren't sure how to feel for a moment before deciding it was pleasing. I suspect they were kinda hoping for something a little more romantic.
>>289366264I don't think so, I think the text was clear, Moe got annoyed because she thought he got her a kids candy, but loved it once he told her that he thought about her specially and picked it for her because of her personality.Kusunoki was surprised but genuinely loved it.
i said it before but baffling how shizuki didn't gift kusunoki something that would give a strong signal that he's into her
>>289344424Holy fuck I'm a Kusunoki fag now
>>289366128She's not a haremette, so...
>>289366065
>>289366823STOP LAUGHING YOU WHORE! HOPE YOUR STEP DAD DIDDLES YOU
>>289365824Whether she likes it or not, it's true that it seems her gift will have a bit of a deeper reaction than the other two.
>>289366769Not yet
FUTURE SNEKPIRE BABIES WHEN?????
>making snake fall for you just to choose KusonokiIs he subconsciously getting revenge?
>>289366769Missed opportunity (to cuck Kusunoki some more)
I don't hate Kusunoki at all but I really like snek, bros.
why like evil girl? cause she's a diddledoll for you to fix?
>>289373716Fix?
>>289373716What COULD you even fix here?
>>289373716Fix? No I just want to molest her.
Next chapter when? I want to see if the stepdad takes sneak to a hotel too.
>>289371238Imagine the fangs.
snek is honestly the most well developed and interesting character in this series, I get why snekfrens love her so much. the series started pretty meh but it has developed in a more interesting fashion than typical school harems.
Goal is to fix sneak without dicking her, then cuck her with Kusonoki. It's the ultimate chad revenge.
>>289373716she just needs attention and love
>>289344424that's a cock
>>289365998Year of the Snake was last year
>>289377314snek’s stepdad…
>>289383982snepdad...
I wonder why so many romcom writers fall for the mistake of making the sidegirls much more interesting than the main girl.
In approximately 8 hours we'll know if we're gonna have the 2nd part of the chapter this week or the 2nd part will end up as volume bonus
>>289386007To be fair, Kusunoki had some interesting development recently and doesn't feel as bland anymore.Snek is just too good and has much more chemistry with MC.
>>289386087>or the 2nd part will end up as volume bonusSeems like it'll be a snek chapter so this will almost certainly happen.
>>289387183Kusunoki is just ridiculously perfect and an angel, perfect grades, perfect beauty, stronger than guys multiple times her size, perfect actor, made friends the moment she tried, her biggest issue is that her friend also likes the guy she's interested in, because if she actually felt like it, she could have anyone she wanted immediately, super kind without a hint of darkness inside her, all this makes Snake's effort to find some weakness make a lot of sense.
>>289373716Girls with long black hair are the most interesting for me.
>>289381511Kusonoki is boring though
>>289365824I would like a whiff of snek
>>289386007Why do so many authors insist on shoving a square peg in a round hole instead of going with the flow?< honorary exception
>120 mangadex comments about snakeshe's so controversial
>>289387769>perfect grades>stronger than guys multiple times her size
>>289390399What lies? She got 30 in maths once, after MC teaches her, she gets 100 immediately afterwards, even MC himself got 95, during the dodgeball game, she managed to knock out the opposing guy who was like 3 times her size by herself, and there are more examples of her athleticism.
>>289390531Is she supposed to get bad scores after studying? That's how learning goes. You don't study you get a bad mark, you do you will get good marks.>and there are more examples of her athleticism.Athleticism doesn't mean being stronger. It's related sometimes but she is weaker than any guy. Even when Keisuke armwrestled her she only won because he was distracted by her boobs.
>>289390571Goes from 30 to 100 immediately? Even the teacher himself only scored 95, and you ignored the line about her knocking out a guy multiple times bigger than her with a single throw, easily defeating guys in Soccer and more. She's like author's personal angel.
>>289347345Actress chan is my waifu
Hmm seems like there's no teaser from the author yet so maybe the next chapters needs to wait until the volume comes out
>>289390613Nothing wrong with getting results after doing the work. And I don't remember the line about her throwing a guy, when was that?Anyhow, saying that she's perfect when we saw her put in the effort is dismissive. Is like saying Keisuke is perfect because of his looks and body when we saw from the first chapter how he achieved that. Hebikawa's search for a dark side is entrenched in her insecurities, not from some logical reasoning.
>>289391071Keisuke worked for very long and managed to enter the "commoner" territory, Kusunoki had to intentional ugly herself because of how attractive she is without effort. She's a Mary Sue.
>>289391207...No? Her looks at middle school was a result of her becoming depressed of what happened in the past which she wanted to change in high school. And even then she still had gaps like her lack of fashion sense and her lack of confidence, which was what kickstarted the series. And we saw how she overcame both through the help of Keisuke. She didn't just wake up and find them solved for her.All of this doesn't matter to Hebikawa because her doubts of Kusunoki are built from her inability to accept her own warped view. The cultural festival arc made this even clearer.
>>289391054https://x.com/i/status/2077356788417175635We got a teaserrrrrSee you in 2 days
>>289391278Depressed because she was just so popular that every guy loves her and every girl is jealous of her.Her fashion issues were solved immediately by Keisuke just telling her to buy stuff off the mannequin and that's it.Her shyness didn't give her any issues during acting as she was great at it immediately, dancing took a while sure. When Irie ran away, she managed to get back to come back by herself, and then quickly made many friends too.Even right now, the only barrier to her getting Keisuke is that Otobe also likes him, she doesn't have to pursue him at all, she kept avoiding him and that didn't stop him from loving her at all
>>289391343God she's so cute
>>289391343Nice, I thought we'd have to wait until the volume.
>>289391423Hebi is ugly both inside and out
>>289391583Moe...
>>289391386That's straight up false. She became depressed because her two best friends blamed her for a situation that she was completely innocent of. One born from their selfishness and caused her to be ostracized by the restn, and ultimately avoid people in middle school. And she is now in the middle of a similar situation.Yes, that's how it works. A problem is presented and then we see how it is solved. Not dwelling on it for chapters doesn't make it less of a problem.Her actions at the cultural festival happened after her time with Keisuke. The confrontation with Iries was to show how she overcame her prior problems. That's how character development works.It's not just Moe. It's also her own feelings. She's scared of losing her relationship to him just like in the past.And again, all of this isn't enough to justify Hebikawa's inquiry. That is caused solely by her and her alone.
>>289391705Wow such problems, in which she's entirely innocent of all things and everyone around her is an idiot because Miss Angel can do no wrong.having poor fashion choices is not a flaw, especially when it's a super hot girl who would look super hot in anything and she cleared it before any issues arises because of it. It's not like Keisuke did much to help her, he supported her but she barely had to do anything. She's perfect inside and out.
>>289391705None of her issues seem to be her fault or last for more than a chapter. She can be smarter than anyone else, more athletic than even the boys, the greatest actress, knows how to fix everyone else's issues, when Irie fucked up during the play, she immediately improvised perfectly and saved the play and Irie, and now everyone is her friend. How much more of a Mary Sue can she be?
>>289391756Yes, this is a story about the interpersonal problems of high schooler. It was presented for the start as such. Being reductive at this point about it is useless.The point is that she still needs help. She can't do everything perfectly, she needs guidance even with small things.Ok, now this is just a lie. Downplaying his efforts to this point is just false.Nothing about Kusunoki should illicit a response like Hebikawa's. Nothing about it is natural. The story itself present it as such, and if the characters knew about it they will act the same.>>289391781Her confidence problem is her own fault. It might have stemed from a situation she had no part in but her reaction over the years was her own problem, which is what she is trying to fix at the start.As for the other parts half of it is something she already had, being genki, and the other is a result of natural development, being able to help Irie with her own problem.
>>289391583No, just inside. The author was very clear about her outer attractiveness.
>>289391343>Um hey, I just want to hand it over and be on my way...>*pout*What did they mean by this? Seems like she's yanking him along with something.
>>289391899Hebikawa has barely done anything to Kusunoki, she ignored her during their first outing but that's it. Her current master plan is to seduce Keisuke and then see what happens. And since Kusunoki told her that she isn't interested in him anyways and they aren't dating, Hebi isn't actually doing anything wrong to her.Wow confidence issues, would be interesting if she had any flaw which would reduce her confidence in the first place. One problem she had was back in Elementary which wasn't even her fault.
Author im still waiting for the chapter where Hebi meets Irie and gets tittymogged to the point of showing disgust
>>289392088Her obsession of proving Kusunoki's dark side is the problem. Irie's friends thought Kusunoki was arrogant but after they got to know her they realized they were wrong. Hebikawa has spent enough time with her to know that her dark side doesn't exist, but she has to prove it to validate her world views. Keisuke already made it clear he wants nothing to do with Hebikawa but she keeps on getting closer because of Kusunoki, not because she's interested in him. That's unnatural.Confiedence issues are a valid dilemma. Especially for people at that age.
>>289386007It's not a mistake, side girls do not need broad appeal so they can be more experimental. The main heroine in romcoms also cannot get character development until near the end of the story, because if they grow too soon or too early there's no conflict.Snek is more interesting than Kusunoki simply because she's antagonistic, so she can act maliciously towards all of the other characters and it won't impact how readers view her. There are actually several other romcoms where the girl who caused the MC's trauma and high school debut ends up being the main heroine, so it's not an uncommon trope, it just didn't happen here.
>>289393297Yea, Watari-kun comes to mind with having a similar dynamic where the good girl heroine is deposed by the trauma-causing girl from his past.
>>289392796>Hebikawa has spent enough time with her to know that her dark side doesn't exist, but she has to prove it to validate her world views. Keisuke already made it clear he wants nothing to do with Hebikawa but she keeps on getting closer because of Kusunoki, not because she's interested in him. That's unnatural.Yeah that makes for better storytelling instead of God's little Angel having confidence issues despite being perfect in every way.
>>289393370Yep, Hebikawa is in the wrong. Thinking otherwise is ignoring what the story has presented so far.
>>289393356Satsuki deserved the win in that series, F-Cup was not ready for a relationship
>>289393370You just described Keisuke too>wahhh, bad thing in past but im Chad Thundercock now
>>289393716Yes she was, he was the one the string her along while the female author did womanbrain things to the male MC>fucking popular big boobed girl, time for you to suffer to mysterious plain girl who acts unlikable since that's how I was taught to attract boys and stayed a virgin until 30!!
>>289393786F-Cup was not ready anon, she was rushing at every turn, to begin with she got REJECTED from her first confession and coped with trial dating.F-Cup herself conceded that she has alot of growing up to do.
>>289392796Regarding Keisuke, I'm not even sure he doesn't want to interact. He just wants to avoid her fake side.
>>289393876that's the only side Snek has
I am still subscribed to this meme theory>Kusunoki will fail her debut because her first love with fall in love with another girl
>>289393917Impossible considering Keisuke is obviously in love with her
>>289393876He doesn't actively avoid her but he's fine with not interacting. He will help her if she needs it because he's a good guy and even humor her if she tried talking to him but he would call her out if she acted shifty.If he learns what her true intention is he will definitely cut her off completely.
>>289393766But he's not? He used to be at the bottom of the totem pole before and is now average, people other than the main cast don't seem to know or care about him, while all 3 girls are very popular.
>>289394008Snek can still steal him away before they date. Trust the plan
>>289394074>the 3 popular girls all want my love>im actually a loser!!1Kusunoki and Keisuke 4ever
>>289393917That's my cope as a Hebi fan too, because the title doesn't make sense otherwise, she's already successfully done her high school debut, she's popular, has friends and is well liked, the only loss she can suffer now is losing Keisuke.
>>289394087That plan has already failed>Teases Keisuke with a kiss>Kusunoki ends up kissing himThis is fate telling you that Snek is doomed to failed.>>289394160The title makes perfect sense, it applies to how the series started, Kusunoki is winning, Snek is fated to lose.
>>289394074Hebi's middle school friend said that he's good-looking when they were at his part-time job.
Snek>fixed, friendKusu>woman moments herself to wine aunt with a catMoe>loving family with 3 children (2 of them being twins)
>>289394534Moe is doomed to lose.
>>289393356F-cup was easily the most boring heroine in Watari, even kouhai-chan was better.
>>289394547Shut up, she will avenge Kanna!!1
>>289394553F-Cup was only there to be humiliated.
>>289394670Anon, her feelings are one sided, rip the bandaid off now before it's too late.
>>289394553She only existed to be hurt by the MC's bullshit with Satsuki.
>>289394713of course I know that, I am joking that she has a shot. she's only there to force Kusu to see Moe and Snek get closer to the MC and spurn her into action. it's the classic 3girl romcom setup
>>289394733She literally blew up her own chances because she was retarded.
>>289394907>MC acts like a distant person all the time drifting into thought about Satsuki when with her>she loses confidence because she can't make a connection with himshe was setup to fail to force the story by a mediocre author who has no clue what they wanted to tell.
>>289394410Snek will make a comeback by claiming Keisuke's virginity
>>289394533Yeah he's been said to be good looking occasionally, Hebikawa called him handsome and Moe said that he should be popular enough to get lots of chocolates, but no one seems to notice him unless pointed out though. Maybe the girls in his class think he's already involved with Kusunoki so they leave him alone?
>>289394670Who's Kanna? The Himaten girl?
>>289395204or if the MC was actually treated by other people readers would have a melty sperg out about Chad MC romcoms are throw a shitty hissyfit.You need to read shoujo romcoms so see a male MC treated by his peers well otherwise otaku-kun buying Panty-chan Can Love Even You Greasy-kun will stop paying
>>289395187>Snek will attempt to make a comeback by trying to claim Keisuke's virginity only for Kusunoki to slip onto his cock and reach joint climax with himFTFY
>>289394087What's she gonna do, suck his dick (consent optional) in a way that Kusunoki will somehow see?She already tried that with a kiss and it failed. Also good luck getting him to cave, Snek has already shown that she has no game.
>moe chapter>thread dies within 50 posts and a few hours>kusonoki chapter>thread dies within 50 posts and a few hours>snek chapter>thread reaches hundreds of posts and is active for several days as people wait for rawsI mean
>>289398273>This very thread has almost 200 posts>Raw thread for this chapter had over 70 posts>Previous TL'd chapter thread had 100 postsWe already know Hebikawa is the most popular one here so lying to downplay the two other girls is pure pettiness.
What is there to talk about in a Moe chapter?>oh look, the author is torturing the short sporty tomboy genki girl who likes the MC and is making moves to get his attention>what great fun, oh well, sure sucks so waste time with a guaranteed loser, >I wonder what's going on with the 2 actual potential long-term characters
Hebikawa is never going to win moroh
HEBI WILL NEVER HAVE REAL FEELINGS FOR ANYONE.
>>289394553Kouhai was absolute sexo.
>>289340631Will we ever get to see Kusunoki throwing a jealous fit?
>>289394151>3Only Moe. Kusunoki put him in the friendzone and Snake River is only interested in fucking Kusunoki's brain.
>>289401341kusunoki literally admitted she loves him like 2 chapters ago retard
>>289401818She didn't seem that sure.
Hebi is for getting molested by her stepdad
>>289398538>implying Hebikawa isn't a guaranteed loserMore snekfag cope, hey I'm sure she'll win the stepdadbowl at least
insane how the thread is still alive maybe if someone can constantly bump this we can have a raw dump by tomorrow in the same thread
>>289405710ehhh, it's not that rare for it to happen. I can see the author giving snek a serious shot
>>289405984Delusional. It's gonna be a bittersweet end with Kusunoki fucking off for 5 in story years but only 10 manga pages. They will get together after that.
>>289405722Idk I eventually need to go to sleep so I can get up early to go wagecuck.
>>289394907Man, F-cup wasn't the smartest tool in the shed.
>>289373716There are good women and evil womenAll men can love good womenIf you can love evil women, you must or we will run out of good women before all men have oneI'll take Snek, I'll dive on that grenade
