GraPara! - Ch. 130 - Please Look Only at Me

Almost at 2k comments a couple of days before the release of the new chapter is so funny to see. What a majestic train wreck.

I really don’t think she (author) has the skills or will to fix this, but it is very cool to see such a long and thoughtful discussion over here.

A most normal opinion to have, it's all on the author, artist (sort of), and editor now. They've had plenty of time since the wreck began to monitor those weekly sales and skim over the feedback. The twist this time was cruel but Katsura Airi isn't writing to scorn her readers, but rather to create stories that she believes aren't out there yet, meaning this isn't necessarily the ultimate ending, just a very high road bump that'll ruin most people's car suspensions.

I also do not think she has the will to give us a satisfying ending.

When Nakanishi-kun saw Shinobu-kun and Fumi embracing on the street, the scene conveyed his inner thought: “Isn’t that Sakura’s manager? ...”
This was the last time Nakanishi-kun left an inner monologue in the manga. After that, all of his interactions are conveyed through “spoken words”: you can hear what he says, see the changes in his expressions, and observe his actions, but his inner feelings alone are hidden. From that point on, readers with a god’s-eye view can no longer clearly see what he is truly thinking. Perhaps this suggests that he has begun to move into the role of a shadow character.
Even when Nakanishi-kun is alone at home just after taking a shower, and sees LINE messages from his childhood friend and from Sakura, his first reaction is presented through him talking to himself rather than through genuine inner monologue.

Nakanishi bro be getting shadier by the post.

Well he is isolating Sakura as well as a huge narcissist.

What gave her such a bad rep, just the fact she primarily does NTR works? Entaglement is the only one that stands out for having a pretty twisted ending and I don't think we're going to get an ending of level here (mostly because it started off as an H manga).

Every ending I have heard of seems to be unsatisfying but with this one if it ends as an netorare it can't be a romance so whatever she does it will be disappointing she has to redeem sakura in the readers eyes or go with fumi who is just a consolation prize or lastly he ends alone and with nothing again so you see why I have low expectations for the ending it will be unsatisfying and a disappointment.

Then came the Entanglement spin offs with baldie winning even more, and even the blonde FMC finding true love, haven't read the BL one yet. I feel like Entanglement was always meant to have a bad ending with how MC/FMC were written, MC was a cuck at the start while FMC just wanted to satisfy her sexual desires no matter who it was with. The og ending felt like a natural progression rather than an author who enjoys doing guaranteed bad endings. GraPara has a much better setting and cast in comparison, and Katsura Airi surely knows this much at least, also her not the sole creator is another silver lining.

 

[diphuc1]

Wow the BL Entaglement spin off is something....maybe baldie shouldn't be winning so much. MC was physically so much more built this time it was weird, no EN TL, just skimmed through some panel previews and uh yep. For all its faults Entanglement across all the different versions did sell a good 4.5 million copies. The OG ending was bad, but it was also an ending that the MC deserved (he was loving it anyway, watching fmc with other people).

Im going to be a little disappointed if this announcement turns out to be a bunch of nothing.

Guys where are you from that you are awake for like 24 hours Like you write anytime, I could write 12 hours before and you would still be awake insane but its cool tho. This manga is frying our heads

I'd be surprised there was any GraPara news honestly but we'll see. My final predication is some Karami Zakari anime adaption finally. If they announce a GraPara hiatus, I'll just have to meditiate a bit and get over it until its back ig.

My head is currently fried if it's ending soon that will not be a super bad thing I already expect to be disappointed by the ending.

Not alone there, my heads been crispy for far too long, but its in a better state now. I just keep this page open on a 3rd monitor for the last week while I work, as for sleep I get by 3~4 hrs these days idk why, even if I lie down at a normal sleep time and put the phone away to void doom scrolling I just don't fall asleep unless I'm dead tired and the body is screaming for sleep.

Well we know the next chapter comes out on Friday so if they were suspending it that would only happen due to a health emergency or a rewrite both unlikely.

Man i can relate so badly. Also here with less than 6 hours of sleep and I feel like it's slowly catching up with me. But brother 3-4 is crazy man you have to let go of this piece of shit manga. Go and enjoy your sleep bro

Thursday for me, going by the tweet Katsura Airi made a few days go, they will never consider redraws or rewrites, which suggest they have a clear plan in mind for what is to follow.

It will be disappointing, Chapter 129 paved the way for that.

Appreciate it friend. I can probably bump it up to 5 we'll see. Art for this manga is fire and I'm familar with the author so I don't like seeing it go to waste is all.

I know but a lot of angry comments had to be deleted so you never know with these things but if the announcement is about grapara it's is likely to tell us it's ending this volume.

It's high noon where is this news!!!!
