Then, in the real world, she and her editor will be sued by Kodansha and Keishi Nishikida sensei for the loss. LOL
Is this a realistic possibility, I mean it would suck but they brought it upon themselves by being stubborn in that case. I do feel for the artist if this manga goes to waste any further so always hoping for the best.

@SS-2010 If Airi Katsura and her editor do get sued wouldn't that be a first for Kodansha, that'd be nuts because wouldn't this be the first time a mangaka gets sued over something like this.

the fmc of Ingoshima I lost track of who she even is at this point both her and the mlc just wondering if she has been corrupted yet?
Unlike Grapara, my friend told me the fmc of Ingoshima is the only one who is still a virgin. She was voted as the most favorite character, so the author is not stupid to destroy her and ends his life as the manga artist. LOL

It'll be a big news and study case for the other manga artists. But I think Airi Katsura (sensei) is not that stupid to let it happen. She must do what Kodansha ask her to do. Money talks ! LOL

In agreement with you there, I'd much rather see how KA writes herself out of this shit hole than see the news about a mangaka I know and her editor being sued by Kodansha because they FAFO'ed too close to the sun after 3 years with a manga.

I don't think that will be a ending that makes Shinobu alone and SakuraxFuckboi ending.I don't think Airi is this insane,she is going to always walk on thin ice until the manga really ends.
Down for a ShinobuXMio ending since I'm a Mio fan second after Sakura. Airi is a professional so I expect a professional's attitude even if their fetish leaked through after 3 years of hard work. Ice has never been thinner, and until we see that final chapter, there's always a move that can be made no matter how broken things look since it's fiction after all and we're just speculating and applying realist perspective to our discussions.

I mean Shinobu now is a fan favorite sided by Fumi so i think she is not stupid to make him a bad ending.

"I want to tell stories that I believe aren't out there yet" Has such a dangerous double meaning here from her interview that the only assurance we have is Kodansha bearing down from above atp.
This kinda of a ending is nothing new.Is just stupid ntr doujinshi ending.And probably Kodansha gonna ask her to do a happy ending for Shinobu.

Do they really have any arguments to sue them?
There are numerous potential legal grounds for a compensation claim. LOL

For instance, there is the breach of contract involved in delivering a story that was supposed to be a NTR LOVE COMEDY but turned into only NTR, a clear violation evident to readers resulting in damages such as the inability to sell volumes.

Or another issue is the unauthorized invocation of Kodansha’s name (used to intimidate fans who asked her to rewrite chapter 129). I'm sure she did not consult Kodansha before posting that statement which drew a massive backlash against her and also implicated Kodansha as she claimed the publisher was on her side. LOL

Also, please don't forget that Grapara was adapted into a live-action version and involved various business entities.

Hence, it's not just Kodansha that have grounds to sue her (and her editor). LOL

As @diphuc1 pointed out, Airi Katsura (sensei) must realize that if she gets sued, she won't be able to live in the society anymore. Even if she could still earn money from drawing doujinshi, she would be forced to live in the shadows forever. Is it really worth it ? LOL

Kodansha has to do something about this because that statement also claims that Kodansha would not have allowed the chapter 129 to be redrawn. LOL

In other words, she is claiming that Kodansha authorized the scene in chapter 129 where Sakura is raped or many prefer to call it forced sex.

So, Kodansha is suffering reputational damage here because Airi Katsura (sensei) dragged her publisher into the mess. LOL.

Man, I think you already answered your own argument in the first paragraph, ntr love comedy. If Grapara had been labeled as just a love comedy, then there would be arguments for a lawsuit, but those three letters were always in the description. I think anyone who read the description knew that something like 129 could happen

Sorry to say this. If we say "Erotic Love Comedy", it means the core plot is comedy by subplots as love and erotic, right ?

The same as "์NTR Love Comedy", the core of Grapara must be "Comedy", not "NTR" as a core. Where is the comedy core ? LOL

So, there is no excuse for Airi Katsura (sensei) because Japanese language also has the same structure as English language (put adjective in front of noun) LOL

At the very least, KA does need to start showing a more positive direction change on Sakura's side or Kodansha's case against Airi could keep building. I don't think it'll become anything serious like a lawsuit, right now we just don't have enough chapters to see where everything is headed quite yet so we end up speculating towards topics like these to find assurance.
