She's still doesn't know the truth, and there's plenty more story to tell.How? Since she doesn't seem to want shinobu.

Realistically there are 3 chapters left.She's still doesn't know the truth, and there's plenty more story to tell.
I'm no expert but since no announcement I don't see thing wrapping up with just 3 chapters. Barring sales tanking already they can still draw this out.Realistically there are 3 chapters left.
Well at 600 comments it's not tanking but it seems the author has lost interest.I'm no expert but since no announcement I don't see thing wrapping up with just 3 chapters. Barring sales tanking already they can still draw this out.
That's certainly one side of the coin, on the other side though they've created such a seemingly insurmountable challange for MC's to overcome that it could make the direction for the story more interesting to tell, giving the author a second wind outside of rinse/repeating the same bait cycle. Think of it this way, Airi can now write better with post 129 clarity.Well at 600 comments it's not tanking but it seems the author has lost interest.
I watched stay in the top 10 for its genre on the official site. I think it still has a lot of steam and more interest now that the live action is streaming.That's certainly one side of the coin, on the other side though they've created such a seemingly insurmountable challange for MC's to overcome that it could make the direction for the story more interesting to tell, giving the author a second wind outside of rinse/repeating the same bait cycle.

Well it hit 1 in love affair 2 in drama and 2 in all. We can get a movie arch there is plenty of life left in grapara but I thinkI watched stay in the top 10 for its genre on the official site. I think it still has a lot of steam and more interest now that the live action is streaming.
I just don't think she wants to do that.That's certainly one side of the coin, on the other side though they've created such a seemingly insurmountable challange for MC's to overcome that it could make the direction for the story more interesting to tell, giving the author a second wind outside of rinse/repeating the same bait cycle.

If she shows Sakura happily in love with fucboi then I'll believe it igI just don't think she wants to do that.
If she shows Sakura happily in love with fuckboi her fans may riot.If she shows Sakura happily in love with fucboi then I'll believe it ig
I might be one, I don't think I'll be interested enough after that to stick around for some bs plot where falls out of love with fucboi somehow even if we're getting another few volumes on top of ShiFumi blooming.If she shows Sakura happily in love with fuckboi her fans my riot.
Well the fucboi one isn't happening since I really don't believe he's that "genuine" when adding all his actions together. Dumbest thing Shinobu can do is go all the way with Fumi (which seems likely soon) and it complicates things potentially, but to be fair if he doesn't it still might jeopardize the script/movie if it casues an irreparable rift between ShiFumi. Don't think Fumi is going to bother reaching out to Sakura anytime soon so all bets or on Nagi having enough of an impact, and to her credit she is an insanely successful actress now.Some Japanese fans don't believe Shinobu will end up with Fumi. They think Nagi might trigger that Sakura has been under a misunderstanding, but it is Fumi who will reveal the truth about that day. IMHO, to complicate matters, there might be an attempt at reconciliation but then Fumi is pregnant!

If Sakura were to make a move herself, the only way I can imagine it would be through Fumi, who is currently closest to Shinobu, persuading her. Fumi is the only one who knows all about the things that would deeply hurt Sakura's mental state: that she was the one who initiated the kiss, not Shinobu; that Shinobu searched for Sakura all night; and that he prioritized Sakura's path to becoming an actress over his own feelings of love, leading to their breakup. If they were to get together like this, the story would probably jump ahead several years lol. And if we prioritize making the story exciting, I don't think Shinobu and Fumi will end up together.

I think Nakanishi is the key person in Sakura's reconciliation. Nakanishi's wish during his hundred-day pilgrimage was, "Sakura's happiness is what matters; whether I can be with her or not doesn't matter." He's determined that he's the only one who can make Sakura happy, but being inexperienced in romance, Nakanishi only knows how to love Sakura through physical intimacy. On the other hand, Shinobu has loved Sakura in other ways, and their histories with Sakura are fundamentally different. He's probably aware that Sakura still has the necklace Shinobu gave her, and he probably hasn't received an answer to his confession yet. It seems quite possible that Nakanishi, realizing he can't fill the void in Sakura's heart, will encourage Sakura to reconcile with Shinobu.

Since that incident, Sakura's feelings haven't been depicted. The phrase "I can't meet you" probably means "I can't face you," so I think her feelings for Shinobu will be revealed in the future. What worries me more is Shinobu's future actions. I have a feeling he's going to pull off a stupid move just like Sakura...

As others have said, I don't think Sakura will act just because Nagi urges her or because she realizes it's a misunderstanding. If anyone is going to take action, I think it will be someone on Shinobu's side. If Fumi, unable to bear watching Shinobu's lingering feelings for Sakura grow stronger day by day and her descent into darkness occurs, were to beg Sakura to "please meet him," then Sakura would probably be willing to meet him, but the hurdles to get there are just too high.

Agree. Many Japanese fans have no desire to see Sakura and fucboi again. When Sakura simply appeared in chapter 132, many calling her presence nauseating. And she would have been absolutely savaged if Nagi hadn't shown up.If she shows Sakura happily in love with fuckboi her fans may riot.
There was a Japanese fan who thought the Sakura and fucboi in chapter 132 was Shinobu's imagination because no face was drawn. (Sorry I couldn't find it anymore) Since the story is riddled with plot holes due to poor writing, those very flaws could actually be used to pull off a major plot twist. It all depends on what the author chooses to do.Well the fucboi one isn't happening since I really don't believe he's that "genuine" when adding all his actions together.

Some of the missing details do make it a free plot device for author to backtrack and spin it however they want to. Everyone's been bouncing back and forth between the mystery potential and then realizing its Katsura Airi so they don't want to be too optimistic, maybe just ever slightly hopeful.There was a Japanese fan who thought the Sakura and fucboi in chapter 132 was Shinobu's imagination because no face was drawn.

Wait are you saying Sakura is the one getting NTR'd here? If so I'm not alone.It's my first time posting here, and apologize for my inadequent english.
In regard of chapter 132 story flows, for chapter 133 i believe Shinobu will go all the way with Fumi, maybe not all night long, but it will be a satifying sex for both, hot sex moment with the same or predictably better expression by two like the past chapter of Shinobu and Sakura doing it.
In chapter 129 Sakura's cheating sex she just doesn't show her total enjoyment in doing it even though she may squirt a lot, but no mid sex or climax embraces at all. Even in 131 the illustration show that sakura still like a dead rock in sex with her new parner.
For shinobu's thing in chapter 131, it is even show that his thing is actually grow bigger than before. When Fumi tried to lick the bottom tip with her tongue, you can see how far it is from the base. Thanks to Fumi's amazing breasts, just like what shinobu inner monologue in the chapter said.
The blonde guy and shinobu might not be so much different in terms of size, though i'm leaning more on shinobu's actually packing a bit more than him. Sakura might feel the same when she was in bed with the blonde guy.
These potential facts must be the NTR fans likely avoid to acknowledge, and raised cuckblock issue in chapter 133. Then later blonde guy affection if cuckblock fail, and for last resort it's not only about the size. Hell, 99% NTR doujin is about size 🤣.
Shinobu had awaken his deepest desire for craving those H cup oppais from the dress hunting chapter with Fumi, then came that cuckblock moment with Sakura since he felt guilty doing it with someone else in mind since he is faithful to Sakura.
Not that she is gone, cheated on him without giving any chance of clearing the situation at all, he and his thing now is absolutely free to hike and rain on those twin mountains.
In 133, cuckblock moment may happen just for a moment, then shinobu inner monologue said fuck Sakura's, Fumi's are the one i crave. Just to please AK NTR fanatics.
Regarding future relationship comments, that can come later.
If we imagine Sakura and Shinobu reuniting as manager and actor, that is no longer possible.As I mentioned before, the fans' logic isn't the author's. Just as most fans think Sakura is dead, given her behavior, we want Shinobu to be happy with Fumi, and why not, we want to see Sakura's downfall and her regret. What will happen is surely nothing like what most of us expect. Is that an achievement of the author? Is she just so good at creating improbable stories? If there's one thing I'm sure of, it's that Sakura keeps appearing in the chapters because at some point she'll confront Shinobu. There will surely be a thousand excuses: that her dream clashed with Shinobu's, that she overheard her saying this or that, that if they each followed their own dreams they were going to end up separating anyway, etc., etc. The truth is, logically, each wanted to fulfill their dreams, and each expected the other's support and, above all, to be there in the bad times to support and give strength to the other. Sakura began to validate her dreams, and her erotic night helped her break with the past and embark on a new adventure, convinced it would improve her situation. Shinobu, for her part, had to accept the new reality. Seeing Sakura give herself to another man, Shinobu knew it was a decision with no turning back. What awaits us? Even knowing I've been wrong before, I believe that one way or another, Shinobu and Sakura will eventually meet again. They'll both think that if they had stayed together, they would have reached the same place without suffering, and they'll surely feel unhappy for not having been able to fix things instead of drifting apart. But ultimately, they can no longer be together, and despite their professional success, they'll realize they aren't happy. I'm sure I'm wrong, but at least I'm having fun.
Why is the first part not possible? They still can be friends at the end and Shinobi is supporting her with fumi at home.If we imagine Sakura and Shinobu reuniting as manager and actor, that is no longer possible.
However, if "reuniting" simply means they both head out to work in the morning and return to the same home like a married couple who work at different jobs, then that is certainly possible.
It ultimately depends on the author's intentions.
IMHO, the author didn't intend for them to end up together, but I suspect there was pressure from Kodansha due to reader dissatisfactions following chapter 129 reflected in the poor pre-order numbers for the volume 13.
Since Kodansha relies primarily on volume sales, not on online readership, the company certainly wouldn't allow Airi Katsura to simply do whatever she pleased. Consequently, the ending might not be what we’re predicting. This explains the re-appearance of Nagi.
