This could happen but seems a bit above KA's writing grade so I'll be curious. KA already struggling to handle the conflict between Shinobu and Sakura as is.
She really got a herself in a crossrhodes right here,because she has to handle many aspects in one time per example:

1.Shinobu's career as a director

2.Sakura's career as a actress

3.The conflicts beetwen her Main characters and the second leads(Fumi and Fuckboi)

4.The misunderstand beetwen both of her main characters.

5.A huge damage control for Sakura.Because she is the cover girl and her FMC so she probably dosen't want her to end be nore hated that she is.(With Lida as the same thing)

6.That is almost becoming a MUST THING to do a happy ending to Shinobu because the fans became attached even more after the chapter 129 and if she does a bad of ending for him she would really be hated for that.

7.If she wants to make them back together after everything,she has to really to do something to that become a plausible possibility.As for now it would need more plot conviniences and much more plot armors for that to happen.(it would fell forced)

8.If she makes Fumi do a NTR thing with Shinobu she probably gonna also receive hate because they really love both of them.

9.The author has to handle the fuckboi character and what she'll do with him because he is the most hated character sided by sakura.And many fans doesn't to see him anymore.

So yes,Airi Katsuri wil have a tought about what she'll with the manga.

Well the mc of an ntr getting a good career and a big tity'd girl as his girlfriend who is better than his ex in every way isn't what I would call common nor is the guy who gets to girl stolen get her back all that common ethire come to think of it I know of no NTRs where that happens and at least a few where the guy who get NTR'd comes out on top!
Only one off the top off my head is an old work (H manga) from Akino Sora 'Let Your Smile Bloom' or something which had a solid ending for an NTR where MC pulls the FMC back from the brink, accepts her, and shows them getting married. Mashiraga Aki has some much darker and depressing NTR works endings like Fork in the Road where MC takes back FMC but ends up looking after the bull's kid after a time skip I believe.

Could happen and would be in character for shionbu he is a simp for Sakura after all but fumi is different than Sakura her character has to be destroyed for that to happen and act very out of character for what we know of her so far she confessed to shinobu sakura I believe did not confess to shinobu be he to her.
Yall might disagree but fumi and sakura, for me, when it comes to being taken advantage of, are both different sides of the same coin. Both loved Shinobu, both have history of being fucked if Shinobu wasnt there, Sakura because she cant seem to resist when someone touches her and Fumi because she is too damn kind for her good and might be a victim to some talk jitsu (like she did before). If they didnt show that Fumi bait, I would've had much more hope for ShinobuxFumi to actually be something that doesnt get shaken up by others. 129 was such a curveball that I wont be surprised if Fumi gets ntrd somehow.

At this point I am just a doomer lol.

And another thing, I feel like we are overestimating Shinobu a lot. He has been the BIGGEST SIMP for sakura ever since the start of the story (MY MAIN MOTIVATION BEING HIM ACCEPTING THAT THE GUY IN FRONT OF HIM JUST FUCKED THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE ALL NIGHT JUST BECAUSE SHE IS HAPPY), and knowing how these japanese mcs normally are (if this was a manhwa this would be a different story), I still think he would accept Sakura even if she fucked the whole industry and came back to him. I dont believe that Airi will not character assasinate Shinobu and then pull off some bullshit like they are both broken which is why they deserve each other or some shit.
Well, honestly, I don't know what to say to that. I think this is going to sound more like headcanon or cope, but I think Shinobu was upset about Sakura cheating on him. I think the first thing he thought was that while he was out all night looking for her, she was with that fuckboi, so I have a little hope that he also decided to accept the end of the relationship because of the cheating

I dont know but the fact that he said in the last chapter 132 that he wants to focus on himself shows that hes moving forward or at least tries it. Also fumi is his pillar right now so if airi doesnt pull some bs slutkura will stay by fuckbois side as it should be. Shinobu and fumi are so much better, they matching each other perfectly. Now show us just some scene where shinobu accepts her feelings.
Thats because Sakura is completely absent from his life for now. What if he sees Sakura in sex scenes knowing fully that she doesnt like this sort of stuff. We never know how he might act. That is what will specify the direction of the ending, he either accepts Fumi and lets Sakura deal with her problems on her own or he rushes to save her again by which Fumi will feel like he still loves her and might be willing to sacrifice her relationship with him. We have no clues to where this can go, and in these situations, when it comes to japanese authors, i will always brace myself for the worst.

Shinobu is probably by far the best character sided with Fumi(right now).

So yes,Airi Katsuri wil have a tought about what she'll with the manga.
All good points there, a few of these can be solved altogether (1.~5.) in a single arc/volume maybe. Point 6 is a given and no need to worry (I hope), 7. is going to be a herculean effort unless there is already a plan in motion which doesn't seem like it. 8. has to just be a bait with this last chapter, the producer wasn't presented to be a shady character so it'll be a bit of an assassination of their character. 9. much as I want fucboi to just vanish the chances of him showing up again only increase week by week as KA for some reason keeps stalling on one of the mysteries that's maybe no so much a mystery remaining.

I think the most hard to her is if she wants make them back together because has to make people believe that is possible

Her redemption is probably the most probable thing to do
If we're shown Sakura happy with fucboi in the next chapter or two, I personally would say redemption at that point is going to be factually impossible barring fucboi's character being immediately assassinated to an extreme degree in some follow up reveal (Sakura being just 1 girl in his weekly sex friend rotation) because the backlash could be very intense as it's still one of the "mysteries" that hopefuls like myself are still clinging onto as a lifeline.

That is really hard to predict what is going to happen here.I think that she'll reedem her because she is the cover girl and is the FMC.(the only reasons to that happen)

And i don't fuckboi thing being a thing that stops the redemption but more like a obstacle to achieve that,Airi can make him stop her to help Shinobu and she opposes him or something like that.(It would show real development and growth from her part)

And those points is that what Airi will have to work there.
