GraPara! - Ch. 129 - Ah… Ngh Ah… (Censored)

[box2024]

Garbage author, no wonder his latest work got axed after 10ch... That one is also a prime example how even forced NTR doesn't fly if not executed well enough.

What was his latest thought he was busy with bad girl?

Lol I forgot about that one that was mediocre even still made more sense than GraPara latest turn though.

Left ambiguous on purpose, but seems she died.
MC gets a call from an unknown number but he ignores it. He even chose to not open the letter she left to him.

The implication is that MC is settling with side heroine A 2 years after she & side heroine B decided to cohabitate with him in an attempt to stop him from unaliving himself because after main heroine left him without explaoning the reasons, they found him in an extremely pitiful state, with his eyes lifeless, but the main reason MC was settling down with the side heroine A is because side heroine A came 2nd in the one and only popularity poll aitsu had. The other implication shown is that 1: if MC either picked the unknown call or opened the arguably posthumous letter, he would ended up relapsing and seeking suicide in a more relentless way.

Nikumaru wanted to give a message about le addictions bad and that people shall give up on them, but failed with the execution. MC was addicted to the main heroine like a pasta base drug addict.

The most random thing was mcs best friend did everything to keep the friendship alive... it was such a bad plot.
Even the theorys of mcs best friend being gay and in love with mc were better than what the author come up with.

I really dont know what the author tried to accomplish with that one... going full ntr and as bad as this is really master class.

 

[Wyrm666]

Really, I want to think that Katsura's Editor isn't an idiot and that there is plan for this shit. Not going to start a yet another moronic genre discussion, but netorare means "stealing another person's loved one."

Maybe the angle will be "yes, she had sex but she wasn't stolen away" and there will be:

• drama
• tears
• the FMC is "sooooo sorry"
• the playboy will never be seen again
• MC will not break up with her
• drama with Fumi with him saying he "loves the FMC soooo much"

I do think that this series will fizzle out after some chapters where the MC protects the FMC from being stolen away but not from having her back blown out by whatever archetype the mangaka wants to draw next. And some will call that "sooo original!"

 

[whorainzone]

That part was just a day dreaming sequence from MC, nothing happened.
The other one was from Misaoka I think, yeah, it was damage control from the author that barely saved his ass in time.

Yeah true, thought he traveled in time lol.
And yeah the second author with dodging the bullet was close to ruining everything fr

Went ahead and wanted to compare the engagement between this and guilty circle since there are so many comparisons I think there rating system is rigged since guilt circle is even in the top 10 in love affair the number 1 raking that the author is so proud of right now but comment engagement in guilty circle cracks a thousand comments often grapara has only done that twice.

 

[Deadstar230]

Aitsu no kanojo, Ichigo 100% and 2.5 jigen no yuuwaku entered the chat. Those 3 ended with the MC ending with a girl other than the main heroine and even were romcoms or had the romcom tag.

This had Airi MFing Katsura involved, so it was expected to go full netori & misery porn at some point.

It’s not MC should end with Sakura. Quite the opposite. I want to see Sakura downfall. I want MC to end with Fumi. Hence, why I love them to go a Guilty Circle and change FMC. And my biggest cope is the fact that it’s a Romcom. Meaning the author knows and the audience knows MC has to win by the ending otherwise it betrays the whole purpose of the story.

I just don’t want MC to become a cuck like the MC in Karami Zakari who holds is dick in anticipation of getting cucked. Neither are was asking MC to become an absolute menace to society. We’re hoping he has the self respect after he finds out she is cheating to tell Sakura to kick the curb and not look back. But you’re right, it’s Airi Katsura.

This is my gripe with NTR’s in manga’s. In Doujins you can get away with this. Manga requires more depth than ‘oops she cheated’.

The irony is that Karami Zakari MC got "redeemed" (more like released) from the Airi Katsura MC curse in a doujinshi. He managed to get an ordinary NPC wife and family, despite of watching the FMC sex tapes, but the one who's suffering the most is the FMC seeing MC's wedding photo (or family portrait) in loneliness.

How many times do people have to explain to you that what the author did was a rug pull the story was about the mc protecting the fmc from ntr situations it it was an ntr manga from the get go a open about that no one would be complaining as for the author being known for wright ntr author's don't normally due the same storyline over and over again at least the good ones. You started with the insults did you think maybe you were the one who lost something in n translation?

I completely understand everything you said about the plot. The unexpected twist, for me, is that I thought the NTR would be with someone who forced Sakura and whom she didn't like, like the Director or Troppy, for example, but since it's the actor, the NTR aspect is relative; it's more like infidelity, which is what Japanese readers complain about.
As for the insults, I don't think I insulted anyone, but if anyone feels offended, I have no problem apologizing.

whorainzone, if you felt insulted, it wasn't my intention, and I apologize. I just understood that you wanted me to agree with you on something I don't agree with, but I respect your arguments, and I only hope you respect mine, even if we don't share them.

I suppose we will disagree with this latest development for me it seems like a genius and common story element that the doc cheats with a good looking guy while portraying the mc as pathetic. I have read a lot of ntr for it to be real ntr there needs to be a corruption of true love I see none of that here just the fmc being easy and going along with what ever as well as having the typical spinless male lead. Gets tiring after awhile was why Itaiamai was a breath of fresh air the flc was aware she was an idiot the MC wasn't a pussy push over. Even Koushiki Furin and Aitsu no Kanojo weren't as nonsensical as GraPara's news developments and those were both stupid better art though I will die on that hill.

Since we see a condom that was opened and not used it's possible the guy started to use one, changed his mind and cam inside of her. I can think of a few different ways this could play out.

1. She finds out the MC didn't cheat and "forgives him". She never tells him that she cheated. They're so happy that they have unprotected sex. Later FMC character finds out she's pregnant and she stays silent letting MC raise the playboys kid.

2. She finds out the MC didn't cheat and "forgives him". She tells him she cheated. He forgives her because he's a loser. She finds out she's pregnant and the MC helps her raise it because he's a loser.

3. She finds out she's pregnant and tells the playboy who clearly doesn't like her from looking at that last panel. He tells her to get fucked. She gets and abortion arc and never tells the MC. They get back together.

I hope they MC finds out immediately and leaves her for Fumi who becomes the new MC but the MC is a loser so he will probably just accept whatever Sakura gives him.

 

[Goon94]

Nah, the author made her "unredeemable" by showing they fucked all night. If it was just a one time thing then they maybe could have got away with it with some heartfelt reunion but not now. Also, expecting the pguy to definitely be a playboy, the bottle of water and excess condoms is so typical for a playboy thing in manga like this. I expect a flashback that shows he fucked the bully girls in that show too and that the other girl from the show might know he does this too

She’s mentally ill. Never within that series have I ever thought:

‘Yea man, she’s totally sane’

It was a fitting end to her, like she is obsessed with MC too. MC was just retarded but eventually grown out of that cuck phase, got himself a wife and kids meanwhile she sends cuck videos to him, gets left on aired and is the community bicycle, she has remained stagnant. So that was an optimistic end.

The only thing about Karami Zakari that I appreciate is at least FMC was a cuck Queen from the jump. So you knew what you were getting into by reading this. Compared to GraPara where they use NTR baits to make Sakura look like a tragic heroine.

Where ever it goes from here one thing is for sure Sakura will sleep around more and the mc will stay pathetic maybe the backlash was enough he gets with fumi of course he won't be enough for her but I would be surprised if she doesn't go thru the cuck stage like every other girl in this manga. Expect things to just be boring after this all the tension is gone now that you can expect generic cheating with some NTR elements thrown in.

 

[Deadstar230]

Only thing that really bothers me is that this is labeled from the start as an Rom-com... Don't know if it's just me, but this hasn't been nothing but a Drama since forever.

Oh, and i was thinking, was there ever a rom-com where the FMC was ruined so much in the viewers eyes? Not really my main genre, but would like to know i anyone can think of some.

This is a mainly the issue of people who came for the Romcom aspect of the story. There is small glimmers but it’s mainly drama and cuckery.

I hope Fumi and MC provide the Rom-Com aspect but knowing Ainu she will use that to get readers invested in their relationship and build up for an NTR. It’s doom and gloom wherever you look with this manga.

She is a one trick pony then basically. I wonder how bad that will burn her readers? At what point dose one start thinking about their reputation as a writer?

 

[box2024]

You know what is funny here is the prediction I can make that is 100% going to happen is what ever happens next will piss you off and be really stupid. There will be no romance nor comedy either.

Exactly!
If it was a "dream" you will be pissed knowing it's made like that only for damage control.
If it continues and she stays FMC, no mater if MC drops her or not, people will stay pissed like they are now.
If they change the FMC, people will still stay pissed, and maybe be even more knowing the same shit can happen to her.

The damage is done, and this author + editor combo are nowhere near Takeda Super level to retcon it for the better.
