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

[CraneBrane]

Think we've contextualized this enough and been through the same song and dance to be better than just having one side trying to boil it down to simping claiming the other is trying to absolve Sakura of blame when nothing of that sort is really even going on atp. We can separate some emotion from fact. Sakura messed up big time to land herself in a position to get taken advantage of, but let's not act like she reached out to le fucboi and went "Oh boi I got cheated on let's fuck". Let's just call it a KA series of events.

Nah im sick of this. She cheated. Wasn't raped. Stop it. Her actions afterwards also indicated she wasn't raped. Shes friendly with Yuma and asked for advice. Just stop.

I'm not intellectual enough to hit you with the science of what constitutes what like @SS-2010 . I'm not bringing the "r" word into this again, simply put, Sakura was stupid and easily taken advantage of. Sakura's actions afterwards are consistent with someone of her mental caliber that is still convinced they were cheated on and being abandoned.

 

[baabaaboo]

well sakura didnt message shinobu that she got raped by her colleague that morning though. what should the readers respond to it then? ooh maybe she feel unworthy of him, so she rather living with her rapist.
What kind of mind process is that.

We're not gonna go into Stockholm syndrome crap to justify this. We saw a cheating woman, it is what it is. My god people. Stop it. Its so straightforward and I swear there are a handful of people talking about it, 75% of them are on this forum. Its delusional.

Was she manipulated? Nah' she manipulated herself into this situation. She never told the dude to stop come on now. Making a bad decision and regretting it later is not rape. Its insulting.

Has not been explicitly confirmed that they live together, maybe we find out in 135 yay. Atp readers should just chill because we're rehashing yaps from like a month ago, comically cyclical. This is the mind process of KA enjoy it, also not sure SA is something you'd announce right after, but if Sakura had done it here the writing would've certainly become more comical than some tragic drama I suppose.

A fucking delusional one. Don't forget she talks shit about Shinobu all the time not Yuma though. He is who she goes to for life advice.

That one dude keeps bringing this shit up every day its infuriating.

Let's not conveniently ignore blonde and fucboi's manipulation efforts for the last 20 chapters. No one's justifying anything anymore, but don't start cutting out the context because it empowers your argument we've already reached a pretty fair common ground that Sakura to this point has been a colossal idiot and needs a big wake up call.

Everything is Sakura's fault! All she had to do was talk to Shinobu and not go to the guy who she knew wanted to have sex with her, then have sex with him. All she had to do was trust the guy who did everything in his life for her. All she had to do was say no to Yuma.

And forget about what she did after the incident, straight evil.

All for the drama atp I'm afraid. I'll be very impressed if they miss this with only two chapters to go. The payoff will need to match all that + time skip

that chapter 130 should be the biggest decision moment sakura need to respon by herself. Instead of admitting she had non consensual sex with her colleague immediately with shinobu, she sent him that despicable line message.
shinobu might be dissapointed with the incident, but i dont think he will left her just because of that. Yes shinobu maybe cheating emotionally with thinking of fumi before, but they could talk it out right there and then. Instead of setting thing straight she cowardly sent her rape partner to met with shinobu.

i personally despise of what airi made for chapter 130 not in sakura infidelity scene.

Hard to say if Sakura knows about that meeting, will be interesting if they bring it up at any point in the finale because it could be a pretty powerful reveal to go back to, but I could just as easily seeing KA's level of writing omit this in favor of whatever rushed ending they want to pen. I will say the last 2 thumbnails being Sakura sad faces are funny af and I hope they keep up this pattern.

NTR is the most generic story in erotica at this point it is vanilla.

NTR will become oversaturated in the next 10 years imo. It will lose popularity, it has passed its peak during 2019-2022 (Terasu MC, Ratatata, Laliberte, Dramus and etc). It’s like the Battle Royale of any East Asian Erotic Works. Everyone is jumping on it because it makes money and brings food on the table. But eventually people will become desensitised to it. Losing its major selling point which is the shock factor it brings. In comparison to a genre like Romance which caters to the human instinct of wanting affection and to be loved, hence why the Romance genre can never die. NTR feels like a phase, the only thing carrying the genre is the art it produces. At some point, artists will also move onto the next big genre.

There is one trope NTR fans/artists refuse to explore and that is NTR Revenge/Karmaic Justice where it’s bull/cheater getting cucked for a change from the perspective of the bull/cheater, it’s a hidden gold mine. But otherwise, the hypno trope, the blackmail trope (Idol caught by paparazzi with MC, FMC was AV actor/prostitute in the past, FMC was caught doing something illegal, FMC caught masturbating by bull, and etc), the debt trap trope, the bully trope, the drugging/drunk mistake trope, the emotional vulnerable trope, bro. I’ve seen it all with NTR. It’s repetitive and tiring.

So Fumi is going to shoot the sex scene on Thursday by the looks of it.

Is it just me or did she delete every retweet of kodansha posting chapters?

Reposts are still there with some scrolling for me. Not too clear what's going to happen next chapter, Fumi agreed to do it but Shinobu has the final say.

i think she didnt know about the meeting. but months went without any clear understanding of misunderstanding between the two mc is either both are spineless and dont love each other as much as lover should or just a low level idiocy story plot. Line blocked? hello sms, hey there phone booth, ah nice to meet you email address
sakura is not that clever to close all access for shinobu to get to her, but shinobu himself not really putting in effort too.

Plot convenience is the only reason here and it's not a good one. Reminder that Sakura also believes Shinobu has chosen to abandon her as her manager on top of the "cheating" so she doesn't want to confront him. As for Shinobu, can't blame him because of what he learned during the meeting and following that he spent months lying around in depression mode loosely keeping up with whatever news he could find on Sakura's career, until his friend calls in about the movie opportunity.

Agree with you. No matter how anyone tries to excuse it, Sakura is still the worst woman; she no longer deserves to receive love from Shinobu. What needs to be seen now is Sakura's downfall and regret, proportional to what she has done.

I think Sakura gave the playboy Shinobu's number so he could meet up with him. But she probably had no idea what they actually talked about.

Could be a fun little reveal if we get a confrontatation.
