Girlfriend, Girlfriend - Vol. 15 Ch. 133 - Final battle (1)

[Ezengrane]

I would love it if Aho-girl suddenly crossed over into this manga and MC was introduced to a banana obsessed doofus that made him super dumb just by proximity.

I'm still a bit disappointed she and Akuru aren't his parents, Naoya already got the parts since he's super serious idiot. Also the parent introduction chapter would've been a blast.

…this literally happens in real life.
There are many happy poly relationships out there.

I tooootally get the time issue, though. I don’t think I could fit dating into my life even if my wife was cool with it, for various reasons.

Some people can, though. Sweet for them.

Well, obviously, there are many great relationships, I mostly meant from the time perspective. Let's be real, unless you are very wealthy and can dedicate most of your time for personal things (which is not the case with Naoya, though, Shiho is loaded, that helps) - that's the only way to get enough time to satisfy everyone's needs.

2. Having chapter_name(1) means chapter_name(52) is a possibility.

Ah, the Jojo approach.

 

[galaxia9]

Shrew and lewd. Embrace that title, Shino, it suits you.

Not everyone needs the same things, though.
I need a more attention than I should, but that’s me.

Yes, this weird three-timing relationship is clearly unsustainable. Naoya is just one guy with an insane work ethic, he will literally work himself to death trying to make everyone happy.

The only healthy end to this is an equal polyamorous relationship- Saki is openly bi (even if the manga seems to read that as literally just a joke) and the other two also have gay tendencies. All it would take is one good conversation to sort out like half of this relationship’s problems.

But of course it’s not gonna go that route. In spite of Saki openly simping for Nagisa from the very start, this story has never been gay, and it’s never been about a healthy polycule- it’s about a fundamentally unbalanced harem where Naoya has both all the power and all the responsibility.

 

[Thrembs]

I need this bitch gone and shit to get queer.
A character came out, asked two people out, and the story just skips to something like THIS. At least show us the rest of that conversation, first. “Umm…let us think about it”, “I didn’t know you…” or “I don’t know about… girls”
“ok”.
That would be fine. Then this bitch can be put in her place for whatever time it takes to do that.

Saki has been screamingly bi the whole time of you look twice. She’s just been pushing herself to want to be monogamous so it didn’t really matter to talk about, but now… cmon!!
Hell, the self-published thing that came before this was explicitly about a bisexual triad forming, iirc.

If that was a one-off gag when it’s worthy of TONS of shenanigans… I will be angy for like 20 reasons.

Yeah, there’s some kind of potential “sister wives” situation where they’re platonic, but that’s usually supported but a very unconventional belief and cultural situation.

I don’t really care if the story had been unrealistic in one guy in the middle of a functioning harem situation. It’s zany. With a character literally coming out and it going nowhere I’m frustrated.
I get that different magazines try to stick to certain subjects, but Jump imprints are putting out gay shit, now.
Gene is publishing the Sasaki and Miyano series and spin-offs. That series is massive over there.
tv, movie, novels.
The author is amazed that that company is putting out BL.

tl,dr: Companies that didn’t publish queer shit before are doing it, and this deserves a conversation AT LEAST.

The tl:

She’s also trying super hard for it to have retaliating things like anxiety about coming out, and the “am I? Can I? I want to, but can I..” struggles being more true to life. When I told here in chat during a stream she was massively relieved to hear that I, a homosexual woman, was moved to tears at this, she said she tried hard and was really nervous about getting it right.
I absolutely love the coming out to the family arcs. Goes so well for one of them that he doesn’t register. Tells his mom “I’m dating a guy”
She’s all “oh, you should introduce me some time.” Then he just keeps coming out and she has to reassure that she understands what he means, and it’s fine. He thanks her for being his mother. I’m tearing up, again.

I don’t want THAT in this zany gag story. I just want A CONVERSATION.

 

[frankieMuniez]

Bro you're fucking three timing, don't give her such a dog shit response you piece of shit what does one more do at this point.

It’s not that he’s necessarily opposed to four timing. The issue is that she said she wants to be his only girlfriend so he would have to choose her over the other three girls.

 

[Suluman45]

He’s going to date her at the end.

please seggs ending

Kind of weird to be complaining about this now. Minase and Shino have always shrugged off Saki whenever she let out her biness. The author isn't going to suddenly change that for a pointless conversation. I mean, neither Shino or Minase are bi, so what would be the point of said conversation other than for comedy?

To just put the issue to bed.
It’s a page or so. It can be funny.
It’s just bad writing to throw out a big thing as a one-off gag.
She literally just did two confessions. A follow up isn’t unreasonable as an expectation.

Yeah, a more complex polycule isn’t likely to happen, but it would be preferable for that to come out of nowhere to this psycho being considered at all.
She’s been the villain the entire time.

Imagine being losing heroine even with harem ending.
