Aitsu no Kanojo

[SS-2010]

Spoiler: after reading the chapter 64

My assumption so far :
Shizuku is Takuto's half sister. She's a daughter of his dad's mistress. That's why Takuto said in the car he couldn't have what he wanted and preferred to be in Riku's family (to be able to love Shizuku). Riku's parents know this secret, that's why Riku's dad gave him a condom though Riku told him Shizuku was Takuto's girlfriend then Riku's mom got mad at him.

Shizuku has had a serious heart disease since she was young and become worser and worser till she needs the regular treatments after school. Takuto is the one who takes her to the hospital after school. So, they fake they're going out to hide her illness from Riku. That's why she has to inform Takuto first before going home with Riku on the day Riku asked her to go home together but they didn't do it because Riku had to help Yako and Umimi study.

The evidences of her illness are : Shizuku got chest pains every times she and Riku have physical intimacy. After their first kiss, Shizuku did get her chest pain. She ran away holding her chest, cried and said to herself she should do it sooner. She got sick easier till she could not undress herself and asked Riku to do it for her the day before she disappeared. The bruise on Shizuku's neck which Riku mistakenly thought was a kiss mark actually was a result of a puncture in her neck because her illness was too bad to puncture her arm. It's the treatment for patients who are in very bad conditions.

In chapter 1, Shizuku came to Riku's house after she and Takuto went to a cafe and then the hospital because on that day her doctor told her she's going to die soon. That's why she went to Riku's house desperately. Takuto sent her a message to cheer her up saying there will be an exhibition but she's too sad and turned off the phone.

Shizuku knows she's going to die in the hospital because the surgery is just to buy her some time so she said to give the rest of her time to Takuto.

It seems we cannot avoid Shizuku's dead. If there is no miracle, hope she dies happily in Riku's arm.

@Mangamoz, took me more than a sec, but here it is:

Spoiler: Comments from the Japanese public about Chapter 64.

⚠️This post was made using MTL, so keep that in mind while reading. The purpose is to provide the MangaDex community with some insight into Japanese audience opinions—not to fish for internet points. So, please refrain from giving a 'like' or any other reaction. ⚠️

ドイツノカノジョ状態 ("Germany girlfriend state") is a Japanese slang phrase meaning being in a relationship in name only, like a fake or distant girlfriend—borrowed from the stereotype of Germans being straightforward or the phrase trending online.

Insight:
I thought the comments would be spicier. Honestly a bit disappointed, but the sex change comment saved it.

Anyway, what really baffles me is why Shizuku didn’t say anything to Riku. What’s with all the secrecy?

Well, as we've already said about plot with a secret : better up your game the longer you keep it hidden. Author is a hack, never let him cook again . Man, we were right since a long time ago.
And yeah, why in the eternal fuck Shizuku has kept Riku out of this secret, is the real question.

@Mangamoz, Bokugen hasn't translated chapter 65 yet, but based on the comments, it seems like Takt tried to have sex with Shizuku—he took off her clothes, kissed her, and touched her breasts, but couldn’t go through with it and ended up crying. Turns out he’s also in love with Riku.

Ah that explains the comments on C word site.

Yeah. I went to check the Japanese comments because I saw the same comment on the C-word site too.

Wow I am dumb, I was wondering where you see the japanese comments, and then found out all I had to do was scroll down on sunday-webry.

Jesus fuck I have been looking at that site forever and never thought to just move the screen a bit down. Peak modern laziness.

It actually appears to be a newly implemented feature on the site. I don’t recall there being a comment section before, and it seems the comments on the site are separate from those on the app. They haven’t integrated the two platforms the way it was done with the Weekly Shōnen Magazine app and the Pocket Shonen Magazine website.

What exactly was Shizuku's thought process on keeping Riku in the dark and going through all of this? It literally doesn't make any sense.

 

[Litreara]

@Mangamoz, chapter 65 was released by Bokugen. Turns out Takt never explicitly said he loves Riku. When Shizuku saw him crying while he was doing whatever he was doing with her, she assumed he also had feelings for Riku. But just as she was about to say it, he told her to shut up and walked out.

So maybe he doesn’t like Riku and is just jealous that everyone else does? Hard to say—it remains to be seen, especially since I don’t really trust Bokugen’s translation.

Looks like we heading into endgame hopefully, this nonsense needs to die already.

 

[RakshaJaeger]

Read chapter 65

Spoiler

The only thing Takt didn’t do to Shizuku is putting his d inside lol. While he’s doing that, Shizuku apologizes that she can’t see him as anything but a dear friend, and that she loved Riku since the beginning, then we see that his crying while groping her. Shizuku then says something like « I know that you too, from the beginning, about Riku… » then Takt cut her and runaway
I don’t think he is in love with Takt, it’s more of a jealousy thing

Not sure that she assumes that Takt has feelings for Riku too, since she apologized for only seeing him as a friend… but then again there’s that last sentence. But damn those 2 are some horrible friends.
My guess is that Takt made Shizuku promise 2 things in order to do whatever she wanted with Riku before her surgery (probably payed by Takt’s family); not telling Riku about her supposed disease so Riku stays in the dark about their whole thing, and dating Takt, in name only while they’re still with Riku and for real once she transferred. That would make Shizuku a little less bad I guess…

I also get the feeling it’s not that Takt likes Riku, but rather that he’s jealous of him because everyone likes Riku. But judging by the Japanese comments, most people—like Shizuku—assumed Takt reacted that way because he does like Riku too. So, I dunno. I’ll grab some of those Japanese comments and post them here later. Can’t do it right now—I’m on mobile data because some shitty technician disconnected my fiber yesterday while installing a new line for someone else.

I still hope is because Takt is in love with Riku. And not for the fun of it, but because it'll be more interesting as twist since we go toward the ending. it'll be the real mystery of this story and a more engaging one than "I crushed your life because I'm jealous of you". I think I prefer the distorted view of love, it'll fit this manga.

He seemed pretty crushed by Shizuku word, like she was digging out his most ugly truth, before cutting her short.
Wait and see proper trad and japanese comment , but I hope the buildup of this scene is not jealousy. I mean why not go all the way since to take more thing from Riku, since he's jealous of him, instead of leaving like that ?

I assume we'll get at some point a drop lore on Takt once Riku will talk to him (or Takt during inner monologue after fleeing the scene work too). I feel like we'll get 5 more chapter before ending for good.
