Chapter 72's free release got a "Who should Riku end up with" poll and Shizuku is far and away the winner. It might weigh on a decision for what ends up in the final volume and/or who that caller is, maybe

The apps version, right?
The web version don’t have poll (or it is hiding somewhere)

Chapters 72 and 73 just dropped in English. Google rdscans as I'm not sure I can directly link to it here.

thank you kind person, i know the manga is trash so i just skip to the ending but the ending is lower than trash lol, i can see the author is hella bored with his own story in this one hahhaha

 

[guivermehh]

Man, english its not even my first language, but i need say some shit about this fucking manga. Dude, WTF, really, what. The. FUCK! Was that end?!
The author just "fuck it, let me finish this real quick ". Its fucking sunday and im upset over a manga.
Im fckng astonished for how every single shit that i read has a good start and then end like expired semen.

This is not an axed ending, right??? It somehow seems like a teaser for season 2 with that last scene of phone call, especially knowing that there is a time skip of 2 years and his relationship with Umimi is much more like a family now, except that there are barely any materials left. Guess I better wait for that volume 8 before shitt*ng on this ed.

Author posted on twitter/X that the bonus is 19 pages. Read into that what you will.

I refuse to read portugues, did the best girl won?

If you google rdscans you can read the entire series in English. Also, it's not clear who you're referring to when you say "best girl" so I can't answer that question.

Well, the free release of the final, Chapter 73, is out on sunday webry and there are a ton of comments.

Author posted on his twitter:

That Guy's Girlfriend Final Chapter Updated
That Guy's Girlfriend will come to a temporary conclusion with this story
I would be delighted if you could read it all the way to the end…!!

as well as:

The entire chapter will be included in the single volume, so I hope you look forward to it

Seems like a good bait to get people to buy Volume 8 on 12/12 hoping that the bonus manga brings closure.

2 days til 12/12 bonus release (which will turn story from 1/10 to 10/10, gojo strong return)
drum roll please

I've only seen 9 pages of it but the bonus chapter continues chapter 72 after Shizuku & Riku's arcade date. More sex and apparently ends with Shizuku leaving Riku while he sleeps and saying goodbye. According to people who've read it there is nothing that concerns chapter 73 so no answers to who's calling Riku.

So a bit of detailled smut time after this open ending.
Well, we can put a lid on one of worst dumpster of fire ever written.
thanks

Saw a comment that said Shizuku's extended scene should have been there from the start and that the anonymous call ending is still crap, honestly I figured this is what would happen from the cover reveal so lol

 

[MrPP118]

So that's it? why bait people with the anonymous caller?

The cynic in me thinks it's all to get people to buy volume 8. The other part of me thinks the author, in his own misguided way, attempted to make chapter 73 appease as many fans as possible. What I mean is - if a reader was a fan of Umimi you got fed a bit in the fact that she's living with Riku, Shizuku officially handed her Riku and at the end of the chapter Riku "confesses" to Umimi by stating he wants to cook next to her. If a reader was a fan of Yako, you got a bit of her flirting with Riku and her telling Umimi she's going to keep trying for Riku. If a reader was a fan of Shizuku, you get hope that the unknown caller is her and that she lived and maybe her and Riku will have a happy ending. If a reader was a fan of Takt, you get hope that the unknown caller is him and that he's "redeemed" himself and is coming back into Riku's life.

We were joking on the translator's discord that the author's next work is going to be a continuation of this manga and the author is playing some sort of braindead 5D chess.

Very recent post on X with some light grumbling basically saying "People are allowed to be dissatisfied, but I'd also appreciate some praise", already with one reply saying "Then why did you end it that way?" Guess he's been taking a bit of a beating.

I've only seen 9 pages of it but the bonus chapter

Could you drop a link or point in the direction of the bonus? Is it like on twitter or something
Funny bonus did nothing

I have a feeling the mods won't like me directly linking to it so all I'll say is 615983. Pages 175-192 but it's in Japanese. I'm sure in a few days/weeks the English translator will post it to their site along with updating any Volume 8 chapters to uncensored as necessary. Google rdscans

 

[wallsg]

Wow. All I can say is what a piece of shit this thing ended up being. I want the life I wasted reading it back.
