I wanna pull my hair out. MC can go full villain mode and it would be absolutely justified.

One more potential partner down. How many more to come?
Bro what was she thinking. He was perfect for her. And for her to drop him like that after meeting her parents. Truly disgusting. Now let’s see how the other girls react to this.

I haven't read this since he tried to get back with the ex who cheated on him and the author put a Deus ex machina to make him realize what a bad idea it was.
I can see the writing is still as bad.
Kei sure loves portraying women as terrible unreliable creatures for a woman eh?

I actually knew someone who chose as Nonoka chose in this chapter. And if her story is the same as the person from my life, then I just hope she can be entirely self-sufficient and doesn't need to rely on her family in any capacity.
Or community support/social system, for that matter, given how Japan can be when it comes to social stigma and "going against the grain" like she's doing. Their mutual friends who run the inn, for example, could easily cut ties with Nonoka over this choice as well, since it seemed they were so close to Hiromi and would probably back him up, given the exact context and texture of the events playing out. But, if Nonoka is fine being a mother instead of a girlfriend or wife, then I guess more power to her.
But, none of that is actually important as far as the story is concerned.
I'm sure she won't be factoring back into the story after this, since there's really nothing more for her to contribute as far as Hiromi and the Sharehouse Five matter. But this also effectively cuts one more tie that holds him back from simply residing there and staying the original course; and once his grandmother passes, he's got no reason at all to go back home (i.e. no 'looking backward at what might have been').
Betting that the Five will now comfort Hiromi, and it will also signal that the four of them (minus Yukari) can officially start the race to winning him over. But since Tsubasa has a very jealous boyfriend now, I'm honestly looking forward to how that's navigated, since I would bet anything that Hiromi would be very disinclined to do anything cheating-coded after the number of times he's been burned in similar fashion.
From there, it's a question of whether characters like Lily are getting to "re-enter", since technically she's had her chance and it went down in flames. That said, we also had Hiromi's ex come back in for a spell, so there's already precedent for romance arcs to have a "part II" when it adds something to Hiromi's journey of self-discovery. So if Lily's going to get more than the "pining away" treatment, I do look forward to how she contributes on a second iteration.

This author crashes ships like Launchpad McQuack crashes planes. Every one of her stories are littered with craters, it's great. I don't even read the manga anymore, I just follow them exclusively to read the comments and see how mad people are.

Cruel AF
X fucking D
She'll meet hiromi again in 50 or so chapters after either getting cheated* on or getting pregnant. There's no way Sasuga won't use her again to kick hiromi in the balls.
And to everyone still reding this shit: same time next week?
Thanks for the tl!

it really works perfectly well. Sasuga Kei doesn't write stories so much as she writes melodrama soap operas. Half the shtick is the over-the-top nature of how the characters interact and behave, while still mostly maintaining a veneer of plausibility. There are absolutely people IRL that act like Nonoka have, even in circumstances that go beyond the situation described in that radio call she was listening to in the car (as in, one spouse leaves a partner and kids for an ex or old crush, destroying multiple lives in the process).
It honestly felt rather tame, as she could have waited until the moving truck was there and then be calling him saying "sorry I realize it's the day of moving but I'm leaving you for my ex", which is kind of what I expected in the sense of how dramatic it would get.
