He lost? Unthinkable. Of course he would lose, it's impressive that she'd go to such lengths to take him down, a second time, mind you. In comparison to her Shirota didn't even try. If Takamine's choice was down to who is more devoted, she'd win, but it isn't. is it?
Shinagashi isn't someone...
We're still in Kato's flashback, Onikobe helped him escape from the cell and now he meets Sasama. It seems she'll also assist in his escape lending him a full body suit, probably one that looks like the instructor Onikobe took down, the one that wanted to personally "teach" her bochu-jutsu.
I think it's his knee jerk response to criticism he got for that. People hating on Chizuru-hime? Impossible, let me double down on making Kazuya pathetic again, it works every time.
Funny you say that, because I'm pretty sure the authors are friends, or at least used to recommend each other's series. Also next chapter of rag also seems to have a bullshit move from Reiji that will only infuriate anybody still reading his manga.
I mean, yeah the ugly bastard stalking them and all, but her reaction to him touching her bag is more interesting, what could she possibly have in there to get her to react like that.
Nope, never mentioned again. I never was a fan of Iris and she always seemed suspiciously close with Yukana after her introduction, but never as close as this time. It would've been a twist if it's revealed that they've been a thing all this time behind the scenes.
She has a suspicious amount of queer girls around her: Ranko, Iris, Karin, but nothing really outright stated. It is implied she and Iris did something lewd in chapter 163 though, so it's not impossible.
That an orphaned little girl that tragically dies drowning in a well would over the years build up a grudge comparable to a sexual harasser that wants to fondle big boobies. Something like that, but since the cover lacks that subtlety it will only look as the heroine is being threatened by some...
