Sad that the double-spread pages 18-19 didn't line up in mangadex so it's split up, it's a lovely composition. Sayuri's character is getting more and more interesting. Up to this chapter I was under the assumption she didn't actually have any strong feelings for Koichi, but just liked the mental model of being in a stable relationship with him. But this was actually intended by the author - she sucks at showing her true feelings so she doesn't look like she 'cares' even if she does. It's nice seeing her finally become vulnerable.

Mangadex it is the current online manga reader with the most page organization options to this date

So if something doesn't lines up, it is more often than not, either the fault of the user for not knowing how to use the system, or the fault of the group for not organizing the content of the chapter

As an example here are the 3 parameters that i used for the double spread to appear as they would in the magazine:

- Double page

- Offset Double Spreads

- Read from Right to Left

And a screenshot to act as a visual guide

Mangadex will always give you the option to fix a double spread that doesn't lines up, if you use their parameters, not necessarily always those 3 because there are more options a reader can thinker with depending of what they are facing

The ideal however is that the group just submits a double spread as 1 big page, but when that doesn't happens Mangadex gives you the options to fix the issue on your end as a reader

An infamous example of this is the manga adaptation of "The Faraway Paladin", the newer chapters were picked up by a group that refuses to join double spreads, and to release complete chapters (so it is full of .2 .3 .05), so the art is always in disorder, which means that every time you read it, if you want to see a double spread as it is, you will have to thinker with the reader settings per chapter specification, because the credits page also offsets the page count

Which is total and absolute bullshit, but at least it is better than ending unable to do anything at all, or the old boomer alternative of downloading the pages yourself and manually joining them on an image editor, then re-uploading them to imgur, and post the complete spread in the comment section so that a third group can re-upload the chapter with the fixed spread

...Wow. I had no idea you could actually do that, holy shit. Never even occurred to me that you could reverse the order and it would fix up double spreads. Thanks for the tip and the trivia!

Delusional shounen manga protagonist thinks he's in a shounen manga, while being in a shounen manga identified as being a delusional shounen manga protagonist. 206 chapters, why is the meta coming in so early holyshit
