GraPara! - Vol. 14 Ch. 136 - Grapara!

[slyss]

From here https://x.com/airikatsura/status/2105665665709539621

I certainly hope this is not just it because "Katsura Airi has experienced known common symptoms of prolonged, severe sleep deprivation, which is tragically common among mangakas (and, speaking from my own experience, university students) because of grueling schedules. This is an admission that she's mentally ill!" is an amazing train of thought.

When the live action version gets to the chapter 129 part will they completely change the plot keep the plot the same or change it into a full rape scene from the beginning

It ain't happenin

It ain't happenin

I watched the live-action version of Grapara, it has 8 episodes and I really liked it. For me, it has the canonical ending, it was a good ending.

That's good to hear, while it was probably made to promote the manga.... Strange how it turned out to be arguably better in some ways.

It'd be funny to imagine them trying to adapt those infamous few chapters into a live-action (would be better off as an AV adaption if you ask me), because logic and flow is so twisted, but I don't think it's possible no matter how much they try to adjust the timeline of events. Everything made zero sense and went from 0-100 way too quick even for a rom-com manga standards.

First, Katsura would have to release a special doujinshi for chapter 129, where the fuckboy goes at it hard with Sakura in every Kama Sutra position 😂😂 and if that doujinshi sells well, he could release a Jav 😂😂

Auditory hallucinations are common.
I had some experiences for not sleeping well during a period of time at work. An orchestra playing being one and a voice calling me out (very clear) of a woman (I'll get you).

It's stuff that happens if you don't sleep well.

Yeah, I get you.
My final college semester was pure hell, full of sleepless nights, and the hallucinations I experienced are something I never want to go through again. They're, after all, among the most well-researched effects of sleep deprivation.

And it's no secret that mangakas are notorious for barely sleeping. Japan ranks near the bottom among developed nations for sleep duration and quality. Like how the late, legendary Shigeru Mizuki always attributed his long life, compared to colleagues like Tezuka (who had one of the worst sleep schedules known to man), to prioritizing sleep no matter what. Or how Yashiro Azuki advocates for good sleep after attending many of his colleagues' funerals, especially that of a friend who died in the bath after an extreme stretch of sleep deprivation. Or how sleep deprivation was also linked to being a possible reason Gonta suffered a stroke (they even made a manga about it and published an article around two years ago).

Actually, Katsura Airi's tweet was clearly prompted by an article published days before her tweet that discussed said Shigeru Mizuki's lifestyle and his prioritization of sleep. That's why she posted the famous comic he made about this in her replies. (Translation)

She's an absolute shithead, but I have no idea why people would relate sleep deprivation, which is common among mangakas, and its symptoms, to being mentally ill. I hope it's not just to validate the dumb theories that have been said here, because that would be... very sad.

Let's bump this thread a bit since a bunch of new ch dropped...

Wife's secret account
Looks like it's over for the wife! MC confronted her about everything and her way out was that she presented him with a DNA test which proves the baby really is his. She even offers him to do the test himself how many times he wants. In her mind she believes she won, being smug about it, how he will not abandon his child and choose the Teacher... But NOPE! MC just pulls out divorce papers and tells her they are done! The last panel is her dumb stunned "HUH" face... It's hilarious!

Daredemo
Gotou is just built different! The teacher underestimated him big times... Her being half dead and asking the girls for help was hilarious! And then Gotou just casually asks the girls for a threesome. I almost choked on that one

Guilty Circle
I told you guys the blonde slut would handle the fat guy...

Rika's face when Sousuke asks for a divorce is priceless. She thought that just proving the baby she's expecting is his would be enough to get her forgiven 😂

I'm so proud of Gotou, he's a really good protagonist 👌 If there's a threesome in the next chapter, I'll kneel before the author xd I can't comment on Guilty circle since I only read the raws and don't translate them, but if the blonde girl killed that guy xd, let's see if she manages to escape with her sister

By the way, yesterday was the final episode of Ueno-kun and it was really good. The MC and FMC ended up together, although I'm not clear on how things turned out with the other girls. I guess they ended up as friends with benefits?

There's something I'm not clear about with the one from Aisai, what does the wife want to prove with everything she did? And from Guilty Circle, who was the one with the mask? I already forgot the characters hahaha

Idk, from the raw it seems like only the girlfriend and the MC end up together and the other girls go on with their lives.

 

[Jhon1617]

At this point, I don't know what his wife is trying to do. She told him that the other villainous guy, Iwabuchi, I think his name is, had forced and blackmailed her with intimate photos to create the social media account. She also told him that she had slept with other guys but that she had always used contraception 😂. Then she showed him the paternity test, already thinking she had won. But the MC wasn't stupid and asked for a divorce. "It's fine that the baby is mine, but that doesn't change the fact that you were unfaithful and a slut." I hope he ends up with Professor Akiba.

I have no idea what was the point of anything she did... Even todays ch, after i MTLed it, it still wasn't clear to me.

And from Guilty Circle, who was the one with the mask? I already forgot the characters hahaha

Dude, it bugged me for 10 min, and then it just hit me... It's the Cop that MC was collabing with to catch the glasses guy when he fucked FMC! Go check out ch 196 to confirm it yourself.

Looks like that to me too. The TL will probably be up in a few days so we'll know for sure then...
