I really just hope that Airi tweet is not Fumi with some actor in a sex scene.
I hope it's not both Sakura and Fumi.
I just looked at it by your concern. But there is no need to be worried, it's not Grapara !

If we compare Keishi NIshikida sensei's drawing to that one on Airi Katsura (sensei)'s X, we'll see they're not from the same artist. By just look at the shadow and shading, we can tell the differences. KM sensei's drawings are more smooth and beautiful.

I think it's AK (sensei)'s drawing in a doujin. She may just promote her own doujin that'll be coming out as she destroyed Grapara already. She must focus on earning from her underground works.

So, please don't worry.

Happy I don't think so successful sort of actors don't make that much money unless they have name recognition you know the kind where you will watch the show because they are in it Sakura doesn't have that yet. So she likely isn't making a lot of money as for shionbu he is right where he needs to be for suscues even if his movie doesn't make a lot of money if it gets attention that alone will get studios to notice him and more likely to find his movies.
You’re right. Anyone who read "Oshi no Ko" knows that actors/actresses don't earn much from acting itself. What they’re really after is fame and opportunities to work with various brands and that’s where the real wealth comes from. Their fees from movies or TV dramas are just like a salary, it’s enough to make a living but won't make them rich.

If you've a good job seeker and arrangement, being a model earns more than a person who is an actor/actress without cooperating with any brand.

I trust you by now, but I'm also curious how's your confidence % on this. On the extremely small chance that his is a preview of next week's 135 this is a diabolical X campaign between the artist and writer

Biggest gaveaway is probably the fingers and then the difference in shading like you say but I'm not not too sure how much to buy into this because it also could be done this way because of the close up. Comparing the artist's style to KA, this does feel more like KA's own work instead of the GraPara! artist, honestly rare X game from KA for the 10/10 bait, inb4 the switch.

I think Sakura agreed to do sex scenes at her current agency. The company didn't forbid her from doing them.
I don't think so because though the current agency didn't stop her (it's the Sakura's right to make a final decision) but they told her already they wanted her to reject it because it'll ruin her innocent image the agency uses to sell her.

If she insisted to take the offer, it'll cause a conflict with her agency as she's not working as they planned her to be. In the future, they may focus on other actresses who are easier than Sakura to work with.

With Japanese etiquette, Sakura should switch agencies before taking on that sex scene. And it's obvious she'll take it so Mio told her to come for her.

So, we can expect Sakura will switch to be with Mio (like Nagi) and break any relationship with fucboy who can't get along.

Because @VuongOuki had the same idea. Keishi Nikishida sensei's drawings are more beautiful.

I recommend you downloading the drawing from X and comparing it with Grapara’s work yourself. Please don’t just believe my words.

The drawing from X lacks shading details and the lines are sharp but stiff. Unlike Grapara’s drawings which are finer and softer lines. The layouts are also different.

On the other hand, the fact that Airi Katasura (sensei) posted an X about her new doujin might imply she has been cut off from working on the Grapara ending. So, she is pouring her time into her doujin projects and preparing for Comiket this August, as she mentioned July is ending, right? LOL

Essentially, she destroyed Grapara and walked away, showing no further interest in it. It’s bad and sad.

But this confirms the speculation that she made the chapter 129 that way to spite Kodansha for ordering her to end Grapara in volume 14 (around chapter 137). She hasn't apologized to anyone until now because she intentionally destroyed Grapara with her own hands.

If KN sensei took over Grapara's now, the ending may not be so harh. Good for you @diphuc1

The drawing from X lacks detailed shading, the linework is distinct and rigid unlike Grapara where the lines are finer and softer. Their layouts are also different.

On the other hand, Airi Katasura (sensei)’s X about her new doujin work might imply that she has been cut off from producing the Grapara ending already. So she is devoting her time to doujin projects and prepare to be in the Comiket this August as she also mentioned about July is going to end, right? LOL

Essentially, she destroyed Grapara and has moved on, showing no further interest in it. This is bad and sad.

But it also confirms the speculation that she crafted chapter 129 the way she did out of spite because Kodansha ordered her to end Grapara in volume 14 (around chapter 137). She offers no apologies to anyone till now because she deliberately destroyed Grapara with her own hands.

If KN sensei took over Grapara's ending now, the ending may not be so harsh. Good for you @diphuc1 .
The implications are interesting. After reading this I 100% take your word for it atp after going through a few more comparisons. Artist's tweet felt like an interesting social experiement because they don't have the reach of the KA but since they asked for people the support GraPara for the rest of Summer they rounded up a good number of X freaks to the comments.

เพราะ @VươngOuki ก็คิดเหมือนกัน ภาพวาดของอาจารย์เคอิชิ นิชิคิดะ สวยกว่าค่ะ

X Grapara ด้วยตัวคุณเอง โปรดอย่าเชื่อเพียงแค ่คำพูดของฉันเท่านั้น

ภาพวาดของ X ขาดรายละเอียดในการแรเงา Ông Grapara ที่เส้นสายละเอียดและนุ่มนวลกว่า นอกจากนี้ รูปแบบการจัดวางภาพก็แตกต่างกันด้วย

ในทางกลับกัน . เซ็นชื่อ X ไว้บนปกโดจินใหม่ของเธอ อาจหมายความว่าเธอถูกต ัดขาดจากการทำตอนจบของ Grapara แล้ว ดังนั้นเธอจึงทุ่มเทเวลาให้กับ โปรเจกต์โดจินและเตรียมตัวไปงาน Comiket ในเดือนสิงหาคมนี้ ตามที่เธอพูดถึงว่าเดือนกรก Bạn có muốn làm điều đó không? ฮ่าๆ

โดยพื้นฐานแล้ว เธอทำลายกราปาราไปแล้วและก็จากไป โดยไม่แสดงความสนใจในมันอีกต่อไป นี่เป็นเรื่องแย่และน่าเศร้า

แต่เรื่องนี้ก็ยืนยันถึงจุ ดที่ต้องพิจารณาเขียนบทที่ 129 ต้องใช้เวลานั้นด้วยความแค้นเพราะโคด bạn đang tìm kiếm 14 (การพิจารณาบทที่ 137) เธอไม่ได้ขอโทษใครเลย จนกระทั่งตอนนี้เพราะ เธอจงใจทำลายกราพาราเ ป็นครั้งแรกของตัวเอง

ถ้าอาจารย์ KN เข้ามาดูแลตอนจบของ Grapara ตอนนี้ ตอนจบอาจจะไม่โหดร้ายขนาดนี้ก็ได้ ยินดีด้วยนะ @diphuc1
In my opinion, GraPara got canceled precisely because of ch. 129. Following the massive fan backlash after ch. 129, which only escalated in ch. 130, Kodansha clearly rushed to do 'damage control'—leaving the nature of the playboy and Sakura's relationship ambiguous and abnormally fast-tracking Shinobu and Fumi's sex scene. Yet, fans only seemed to detest Sakura even more. On top of that, Airi appeared to be so heavily restricted that she lost all inspiration to keep going with GraPara, which ultimately led to the series getting axed.

I'll rather wait and see (and be prepared foe the next shitstorm... let's make our bets: in which instance Mangadex's comments would go over 4000 in a single chapter?)

We have 2 weeks to ponder the options.

the MCis 120% beta and he will definitely get back to his cheating ex gf🤷🏽‍♂️ and he also enjoys getting cuck😂
This is H-Logic. This won’t end well with Manga. In a doujin? Yea sure.

MC isn’t a cuck neither. He will forgive her, but I doubt he takes her back.

Yea.

For Fumi, it’s either MC confesses his love to Fumi or he lets Fumi suffer in the deep end of NTR.

Sakura? She was going to be in that sex scene either way.

If that's anyone from grapara it would be fumi could just be an early draft of the scene in question. Or could be her other work since there is a lot of attention around it right now.

I don't think it's grapara either the hands are similar to shinobu's the breasts to fumi's but they look a little smaller than hers but to big to be sakura's.

You're close, the shadowing is also way too intense, the style is closer to KA drawings of Karami Zakari than it is GraPara, also for those trying to say the bust difference, nope if you want to believe this is GraPara this could still be Fumi or Sakura then.

A plotline where that playboy gets exposed in a scandal for lead-on female actresses, completely wrecking his career, would definitely blow up this forum the most.

I compared bust size to small for fumi to big for Sakura granted there is more of sakura's tits than fumi's but the size is consistent at least I think it's her other work.
