GraPara! - Vol. 14 Ch. 135 - Sex Scenes

That'll be a matter for the JP legal system that we don't need to think much about. Just have fun yapping on where the story finishes based on the things we've seen.

The really strange thing to me is that, whether it be for damage control or not, we're never shown any moments between fucboi and Sakura that could be considered as "romantice" imo, to show their developing relationship in the post time skip.

Shit, I don't think there was much in the way of romance between the MCs, either.

Who knows if Shifumi really is fan preference, there's enough brainless idiots on her twitter who would love nothing more than ntr2: electric boogaloo.

Ignore the twitter mob spamming comments, I imagine a number of people have hopped off the Fumi train into the abyss but there's still hope.

If you have the time to spare maybe go back and reread the first 102 chapters. Borrowing the words of Ryusei here, "They were a great team" If we want to nitpick details from the more intimate scenes, they're the only one who've said "I love you" to one another, although this probably won't matter much atp going into the final chapter. Only reason why so much noise was made over it is because the dynamic between Sakura and Shinobu was something readers enjoyed and it got burned over a tragic sequence of events.

There's still no clear ending being favored unless you want to count ShiFumi breaking apart because of said cliffhanger.

Well that "love" as I've said in an earlier post, seems to be unconditional from only one side.

Claiming that your significant other cheated on you without confirming/confronting your partner, then skimming over the fact that you, too stepped out on your relationship. On top of that, not even confronting your (ex) partner in person and just deciding to break up via text and having her affair partner do it for you.

You can say she feels guilty, but that's it. It doesn't seem she claimed any responsibility - at least partially - for ending the relationship.

...and this is just one of the infidelities committed by her. I'd consider her a sociopath if she didn't at least feel bad about it.

We can blame this on the author, but that declaration seems to have meant something to only one of them.

...and this is just the latest incident in a fairly long line of infidelities committed by her. I'd consider her a sociopath if she didn't at least feel bad about it.

Events were intentionally manipulated by the kind author so that it'd turn out like this, I won't argue the smaller details atp, the finale is around the corner, everyone should just go into it with whatever thoughts they want to have. If nothing else, even cutting the romance out of it, the ShiKura dynamic was what carried the manga for 3 years, so we'll see if they are afforded a final meeting in this final chapter or will KA go, "hold my text" as a final send off.

To be fair the people who respond to her on Twitter are small in numbers but some seem obsessed.

I think in writing that whole situation the way she did, it essentially tells you the relationship wasn't worth the paper it was written on and given that the whole premise needs that relationship to teeter on a tightrope of ntr baits, it's hard to take the relationship seriously until they would have cleared their hurdles and if they wouldn't have cleared it, it should at least be written in a way that's not stupid because the integrity of the relationship is also teetering on that rope. However it's as we saw, pretty fucking dumb.

I've grown tired of checking every message but I want to say the majority of it has become the same copy/pasta by now with the occasional twitter person putting out an original message each time thinking it'll get across to KA. It's wasted effort, I suppose if it's helping them vent still then sure I guess, they should just come to these threads and yap with us instead ngl.

Hell yeah, Rom-com bros can light the last 3 volumes on fire and NTR bros can just burn the first 11 volumes. (Joke)

Fumi is willing to have sex wth a other guy because of a pen that is about as dumb as a wife getting blackmail for have sex with her husband in side their own home, and on top off that the ntr in the story only happens because the author changed Sakura and Fumi into completely different characters

Oh I just checked now to see what Arir post's.

For the love of God fumi isn't having sex with another guy they aren't filming a porno it's an intimate scene with nudity. Next chapter the scene will highly likely be stopped and an answer of what fumi is to shinobu will be answered.

moar reposts!

Highly likely they call a cut, very smol chance Shinobu decides to keep filming, ??? chance of dramatic fall out.

Who knows what this mangas universe considers a "proper" sex scene

Whatever Sakura's doing on set. Shinobu and Fumi are just stumbling around trying to fulfill the producers request while lacking proper support staff and going off things like advice from Ryusei.

I think that's what frustrates me the most. It had the potential to be great. If only the author was able to keep her fetish in check. The cheating wasn't the bad part in itself. It was the way it, and the cheater in question was handled.

Nail on head moment. Wasted potential and Sakura looking to get off scott free while her career only grows from here meanwhile Shinobu keeps getting the short end (so far, cliffhanger is just cliffhanger for now). Sakura taking on erotic gigs does conflict with her agency's original idea for her image, maybe a small chance that matters.

Well to be fair Arir really makes it hard to believe sakura was really in love with shionbu her down fall while telegraphed to us was still nonsensical and made no sense. She also didn't write sakura like she was in love with shionbu at all didn't introduce him as her boyfriend didn't speak up in defense of him when blonde and fuckboi were bad mouthing him you would think with all they have been through and all he did for her she would speak up about that it would seem sakura put no value on any of that with how Arir has written her character.

Smol counterpoint, if nothing else the way she broke down thinking Shinobu was abandoning her and that she got cheated on shows she at least cared more than we would think imo.

Dude took a knife for her bitch ass, and that was even before they really knew each other. Least she could've done was clear the air with him about his supposed affair
