GraPara! - Ch. 134 - By Strip, You Mean…?

[Silernick]

Here's to hoping the artist has secured more work. They got great tiddy art.

El artista es fan de Katsura Airi, de hecho al inicio de este manga. Le daba flores y estaba encantada de trabajar con ella, sabiendo de sus anteriores obras, la artista terminara como Airi por su fanatismo.

After reading Chapter 134, one thing that stood out to me was that Shinobu never once thought about Sakura throughout the entire chapter—not even when Fumi brought her up, except for the very last panel, which was intentionally left ambiguous.

In fact, when Shinobu thought about Fumi's sex scene, he clearly seemed uncomfortable with the idea and tried to persuade Fumi to turn the role down. To me, that makes it pretty obvious that he already sees Fumi as the person he loves.

On the other hand, Fumi brought up Sakura because she believes Sakura would be more beneficial to Shinobu. She simply doesn't know what Shinobu is actually thinking or how he truly feels.

My prediction for the next chapter is that Shinobu will go to Fumi's room and finally explain the real reason he doesn't want her to perform the sex scene, before confessing his feelings in return—similar to what happened in Chapter 132. The story would then cut back and forth between Shinobu and Fumi becoming intimate and Sakura filming the sex scene after accepting the producer's offer. The chapter would end by revealing that both films have officially wrapped production.

Personally, I don't think just two chapters are enough to rebuild the Shikura relationship in a way that most readers would find believable. On top of that, suddenly abandoning the Shifumi pairing would risk hurting Volume 14's sales, since I think that relationship is one of the main reasons many readers are still following this stupid series

I think Sakura and Shinobu ending could only happen with very much plot convinient things happen and if they leave the logical sense.(that is nothing new in this story)

But for is not impossible that happen because Airi can force that too.

Ah dang.. they're edging us lmao

Yea even on her latest X post she surprisingly responded to one kinder-hearted comment and it looks like its truly ending sadge.

 

[hugorito420]

It will be left ambiguous at best.

I think their last talk will be a closure in a romantic way and they start again as coworkers.

they start again with make-up seggs which takes up the entire second chapter.

The joke here is that everything beyond 102 was basically GraPara2 Just make it a Shikura ending and Fumi bonus chapter done deal.

Just read "Harimiya-senpai" and "Osoraku-Kanojo",you'll be more relaxed about that crap manga.

[hugorito420]

Why I do

A miracle sex with Shinobu and Sakura happening in the last chapter.But i can see that happen if they are endgame.(as epilogue)

Chapter increased my hopes for Shikura actually, hey you even gave it a +5% stonks value I saw it! I'll take that 60/40 Fumi favored split happily.

It improved a little bit but i still think it will be Shinobu and Fumi ending and Sakura single.

End basically announced so everyone needs to get their feelings out ig, also Airi did make a rare GraPara non repost tweet.

That is sad. Well I still hope they can expand their works. The art is great all things considered.

60/40 is pretty close, both relationships showed varying degrees of fissuring over work related topics so it'll be fun to see where it goes. I just think Sakura is the more interesting heroine now in her present state and we're getting more of her thoughts while Fumi on the other hand is shown to be haunted by Sakura's shadow out of nowhere.

Normally I would jump in and throw cold water on this with reality BUT with only two chapters to go things being rushed who the hell knows for certain. I mean I fully expect to be disappointed still.

I think the Fumi situation is way easier to solve than Sakura's but this chapter how Sakura values her time with Shinobu and shows how he was important to her for his career.And we see that she probably is not happy being a actress and she values her gravature work.
