Fuufu Ijou, Koibito Miman. - Vol. 12 Ch. 68

[CT-9904]

"The surprise here is that you're surprised about the birthday"

 

[HandTiedSensations]

Put your dick in that box!

Then have her open the box!

 

[Kageura002]

It's easy. Just give your virginity to her if you can't find any present.

 

[harinosho]

Okay, registered after many lurking years.

Who are the other characters again and why do we see how they spending their Christmas?

I cannot remember any of the names linked to the faces, i remember 3 things:
1. FMC friend has got some kind of past that i dont think was revealed?
2. And blond guy fell for his brothers wife??
3. Childhood friend BF is actually in love with her. Wants to be more than friends?

 

[KLGChaos]

So many manga characters seem to have birthdays on Christmas or New Year.

 

[loonacrunch]

Still praying for tenjin to get his own happy ending

 

[AntonSolo]

You're so screwed, finding a gift on christmas day is near impossible XD

Well, yeah... If he was in America or Europe, where's it's a major religious holiday. But in Japan?? Not so much...
Since it's a secular celebration, the stores aren't closed, so our boy has a good shot at making his future waifu happy...

 

[AntonSolo]

Buying gift this late on Christmas huh? Good fucking luck Jirou, you will absolutely need it

Yeah, if he was in The States or Europe, but this is Japan we're talking about, Christmas is all the fun and presents, with none of the religious aspects. I call that a win-win for our boy

 

[Coldlight]

"And if, we're no longer married... I want you to start being my girlfriend..."
Taken out of context, these words in this beautifully colored scene sounds really weird.

Nobody other than Sachi (and friends, maybe) know he and Akari are going to start dating in a while, so I wonder how this will hit Shiori even after he already rejected her. Is she still waiting for another chance? But maybe her moving to a different prefecture for university might be the moving on from Jirou part I'm expecting.

That look of pain on Minami's face. I see he still hasn't let go of his feelings so the hurt continues for this guy having to see his brother and his wife on family gatherings. Terafune still infatuated with Akari, but he has no idea he has absolutely zero chance.

Wait, who was that girl with the hair ribbon in the panel on page 22? I can only think of Natsumi. Even more, who's that girl hanging out with Sadaharu?! Don't tell me she's Satsuki, his marriage practical wife who I don't remember ever seeing.

Anyway, Jirou has no choice but to play the hand he's been dealt with. No fancy well-thought out gifts because Sachi only even leaked Akari's birthday to him, not even Akari said something so he shouldn't sweat it too much: it would be stupid for Akari to get angry over him failing to find her a birthday gift.

Who are the other characters again and why do we see how they spending their Christmas?

Page 22, manga reading order:

• Mei Hamano - Shiori's tanned tomboy athlete friend with the pixie cut hair, she likes Shiori
• Terafune - Mei's marriage practical husband, has a crush on Akari, part of Minami's circle of friends
• Minami Tenjin - popular blond guy and Shiori's marriage practical husband, he's Akari's old crush who rejected her
• (?)Natsumi Ohashi - Not actually sure who, but if she's Natsumi then she's the other girl in Akari and Sachi's friend circle.

Page 23

• Sadaharu Kamo - Jirou's nerdy friend with glasses (dunno who's the ponytailed girl he's hanging out with)
• Sachi Takamiya - Akari's friend, last chapter's MVP, IIRC she had an older BF but recently broke up
• Shiori Sakurazaka - Jirou's childhood friend and middle school crush who he recently rejected
• Jirou Yakuin - male lead of this story

I cannot remember any of the names linked to the faces, i remember 3 things:
1. FMC friend has got some kind of past that i dont think was revealed?
2. And blond guy fell for his brothers wife??
3. Childhood friend BF is actually in love with her. Wants to be more than friends?

1. Do you mean Sachi, friend of Akari? All I know is that she had a BF and recently broke up. Now she seems to be on a date with someone and sharing a fist bump with the bartender. If you mean Mei as Shiori's friend, no I don't remember her past being revealed.
2. Yes, Minami is painfully in love with his brother's wife and it seems he hasn't yet let go.
3. Childhood friend BF...? Shiori has no boyfriend. If you mean Terafune who has a crush on Akari, he's not anybody's boyfriend. If you mean Mei, Shiori's bestie, yeah, she has romantic feelings and wants to be more than friends with her.

 

[phorx]

I get that Akari didn’t tell him about her birthday, but he could have asked when it was himself. C’mon, you two committed to being together but you don’t know when her birthday is?

This is a self-inflicted wound bro, inexperience doesn’t excuse this one.

 

[theshet]

Bro gonna try to find a gift, fail or get something random and keep her waiting?! Get yo girl

 

[Doodert]

So.. place your bets on possible outcomes.
1. Our boy finds a gift and she likes it.
2. Our boy finds a gift, but spends too much of the day out, and therefore she's pretty bummed about it.
3. Our boy decides to be the gift, and following another Lv999 Manga, something spicy for Ch69.
4. She hasn't actually told our boy that it's her birthday, and therefore just wants to see him, shocked and surprised at a gift.
5. Take #4 but with the addition of being upset that he was told by someone else about her birthday and she wanted it to be a surprise.

Personally, I'm going with #2, but only because of the looming thought in my head of "Oh things are going well, how will the author decide to extend things? Cute, fluffy and sparkly? Or misunderstandings and drama?" and decide to make her upset about it and thus creating a rift in their relationship.

Either way, place your bets folks, no explanation is necessary like mine, but feel free to chime in so we can come back Soon™ when the next chapter drops and see who wins big!

My bet is on 42: Surprised at a gift but bummed out it took him so long to get home.

 

[dodragonexist]

what a nasty cliffhanger chapter 😭

 

[DPChaos]

Thoughts and prayers for mah boi Tenjin. Hope you make it, brother.

 

[Ranzeyy]

NOOO THIS CHAPTER FELT TOO SHORT. NOW I GOTTA WAIT ANOTHER MONTH ):

 

[Thugz4Less]

3. Childhood friend BF...? Shiori has no boyfriend. If you mean Terafune who has a crush on Akari, he's not anybody's boyfriend.

I thought boyfriend for BF too at first, but I think they meant best friend. I think they're talking about Mei.

 

[Erebov]

Why didn't he just ask her friend for gift ideas? lol

Also this whole "we're both obviously crazy about each other... but let's wait" turn of events is weird. I can't help but not trust the author. Feels like she's gonna hit us with some bullshit drama in the near future.

 

[Coldlight]

Thanks. Edited my comment to account for that possibility.

 

[vmamoru]

the moment he know he fucked up lol
