GraPara! - Ch. 133 - A Sultry Night (Censored)

[SS-2010]

Noted, and I very much agree, just up in my feelings atm.

The cope is laid on extra thicc here. Surely the MCs do meet again at least once within the final two chapters, really hoping it's the next one with the extra wait time for it. Is this the same friend that was a big Kodansha fan. Not corrrecting the misunderstanding seems a bit weird, but we still need to see what becomes of fucboiXSakura. If KA stops promoting GraPara! over the next 2 weeks then we'll know for sure, the writing in his chapter did feel a bit different compared to the rest.

Sorry, this one is a male who rarely read Grapara, so he didn't know Airi Katsura (sensei) habits. The one is a female.

Now, she was confused as to how Sakura who appeared to be single in chapter 133 turned to be the fucboy's girlfriend all along. She also suspected about the ghost author, implying that the author for chapter 133 and chapter 134 were likely different people. The ghost author was assigned to end Grapara.

IMHO, if the suspicion is true, Keishi Nishikida sensei, the illustrator, is likely to be that ghostwriter.

We will probably never even know of they are actually together or living together or if it was a one night stand or anything. It'll probably be left for you to interpret yourself.

You're not wrong. I'm 99% sure they are at least together because Sakura shows up at his place to consult him on her new offer, only point of doubt is the cohabitation with Sakura standing there in formalwear not even trying to sit down next to him.

I have a feeling she will dump him and go with Mio. Then after meeting Shinobu again she will feel regretful (especially when she finds out about all of this), but he will be the one to reject her in the end. Saying all the things he said to Fumi when she asked about Sakura.

I know you won't agree, but this kind of bittersweet ending fits the current tone, unfortunately...

I think that would be a nice ending for that and probably the finale that makes sense with everything that happended to the story.

She is more likely to cuck him than dump him. Knowing her luck, she will get a douche actor/director/producer who will fuck her in the name of acting.

She doesn’t have the confidence to dump him face to face. And I feel like Airi won’t give her the truth she needs to hear. Typical Airi writing.

I had the same thought. Maybe even the whole Fumi sex scene was not her. It looked like real damage control, and her giving what the fans wanted after bashing them didn't make sense to me.

This is also the reason i think Shinbu and Sakura will not end up together...

This really does makes it feel like a writer swap happened, because Mio also now magically knows about fucboi despite their meeting have zero mentions of him. Swap could be a good thing I guess since the writing in 133 wasn't that great. I still find myself with lingering bits of Shikura hope that'll be there until the end 3 weeks from.

If Shinobu and Sakura can have a similar heart to heart conversation like Mio this chapter then things could change drastically, but I don't see the setup for it, it'll have to be outta nowhere in two chapters remaining, but the fact that both of the current "couples" were shaken up could hint at something more than just bait.

Oh yeah let’s not forget: once this manga ends we’re all going to disappear into the depths of the manhadex cosmos, never to read from each other again

You're all gonna miss me 👉😎👉

You're all gonna miss me 👉😎👉

Absolutely, some of us yapped a lot more than others but I enjoyed pretty much everyone who took their time to share their thoughts

 

[Absent666]

So Grapara got axed or this was planned to end this way???

I know i'll see some of you in the Daredemo threads so... see you.

I don't think Shinobu and Fumi is so shaken Fumi is only felling a little insecure.But Sakura and Fuckboi are with the days totally counted after the conversation with Mio.

But i don't eliminate the forced ending beetwen Shinobu and Sakura right here.

Truuuuuuuuuuu it says a lot about them 😂

It's hard to say but it's looking like it did. Unless the 2 chapters is a bait in it of itself and actually refers to the volume rather than the manga.

Mostly probable axed right here.

Agreed, one "couple" definitely got shaken up a lot more than the other. Don't think we're going to get much more fucboi consequences other than a breakup sadly. Biggest difference maker now is how Shinobu and Sakura react to one another in their reunion (surely just 1 meeting at least within the last two chapters right). Glad you're still willing to entertain my Shikura hopium while hitting me with a dose of reality.

Had a decent run, if they can scrap a serviceable ending in a miracle 2 remaining chapter count it won't have been all bad, just skippa the bad parts.

A way this could end bittersweetly is that the two hear of each other's feats. Shinobu happy for Sakura, assuming she's doing well.

And then Sakura just having more sadness because he's achieved his dream but now she's lost on what to do. Forever having that sense of regret.

It sucks cause there's no resolution but like.. I can see it.

I don't know how this manga will end satisfyingly.

Ok guys
Let's move to Daredemo threads.

I'll be there no matter what.

They probably gonna make a final meeting(most probably in the last chapter and end this story here).

The Shinobu and Fumi conflict is way easier to fix than Fuckboi and Sakura,the second one is only a matter of time to break up even after the discussion with Mio.And Shinobu and Fumi can be solved with Shinobu acts before that happen because he is the director of the movie and he can comfort Fumi's insecurities about Sakura.

Not sure if you've read the rough TL yet, but I think one thing I'm almost sure of is Sakura will transfer to Mio's agency and even if she doesn't end up back together with Shinobu she'll be much happier with an agency that supports what she wants to do (Gravure), and will be around mostly good friends (Mio the Goat, Nagi is ok too). I have no idea in the remaining time left if we even see any further progress on the movie beyond a time skip honorable mention of how it went, we'll have to see. I'd much rather whoever is writing try to come up with a bs force MC's back together scenario atp.

 

[SS-2010]

No, stop it, it wasn't forced or rape, give up on the copium.

If that scene was meant to be a ntr rape scene then Sakura would be crying for help and Yuma would be over powering her and the scene would end with Sakura getting corrupted/brainwashed, In chapter 129 Sakura let Yuma take her to his home and she let Yuma undress her then she had sex with Yuma and later chapters so are treating it like a one night stand seeing how Yuma is now a background character.

This is about sharing knowledge, not about winning or losing.

According to a clinical study published in Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica (2017) by Dr. Anna Möller and her research team, 70% of rape victims behave like Sakura, letting the rapist do what they want. Another 30% resisted and many of them got heavily injured or even died. Sad but true.

The research demonstrates that our assumptions may not align with the truth. And we should offer empathy to rape victims rather than questioning why they did not resist during the assault.

It's hard for men to understand women but I hope this research help at least a little.
