The author officially lost it while in the middle of writing the ending she was like in the beginning of the chapter fuck this work then in the middle of the chapter ok let me tie things up in the end of the chapter fuck this work

I really feel sorry for the people who's been with the work since the beginning 3 years to this ass ending

And in the final panel she want to hype people for her next work like I see the manga community thrilled over your next work

How she fucked up 2 work in a row is above me

She can leave this ass ending as separate dojin work for her fantasy and put real thoughts on the manga this manga can easy be 6/10 rom-com but nope I hate my self and I hate my readers

No one knows Sakura got railed everyday because her and cucboy's eyes were not disclosed as if it's just Shinobu's imagination in chapter 131.

Also, chapter 132-133 were an attempt to convince readers that it's just a one-time sex by using Nagi and Mio who have one-time sex right away after being hurt by Shinobu, the same situation as Sakura.

Then, in chapter 134, @diphuc1 noticed that Sakura call cucboy as "Yuma-san" in stead of "Yuma-kun" she used in chapter 126. Japanese also commented that it seemed they're not actually going out.

Later in chapter 134, the author intended to show us Sakura still loves Shinobu and then in chapter 135, the author shew us Shinobu still loves Sakura as well. Shinobu didn't go out with Fumi so they met and discuss about their job at a restaurant in stead of in her room.

The entire storyline aims to reunite Shinobu and Sakura as a couple, a move that is completely unlike Airi Katsura (sensei)'s usual style but very style of Keishi Nikishida sensei who always has his FMC and MC end up together in his stories.
I did not pick up on the fact that they met in the restaurant instead on a more intimate kind of place that a couple who are dating would meet.

I guess this makes sense in the context of 134, but man considering what they showed literally 2 chapters before this, axing sucks man.

Airi with the the masterclass in the end on how to assassinate almost every character in the story. I think the only decent characters left were Mio, Ryusei, Chico, and maaaybe Nagi but she was useless unless you want to partially credit her advice (Mio did more in 134) making fucboi leave Sakura which is....conflicting LOL.

I find it kinda funny how many people are hating on the author when here we are over 500 comments when most magas rarely crack 100 comments. We set records for mangadex on how many comments this got if you where the author and your goal was to give readers a sense of NTR then you would be rather happy in that success. Even if I really hate how the story went Arir is not a hack writer when she wildly succeed in what she ultimately wanted to convey. Shure her writing isn't the strongest her characters have to have their brains turned off for the plot to work but this wasn't some horrendous writing I have read worse.

The manga reddit saw some of the 5k comments in the last few chapter threads and were like "wtf?"

I agree, ending could've unironically been 10x worse (imagine fucboi instead of npc actor) but the presentation choices near the last few pages are not helping.

@A.Tanakaaa well, at least fucboi and Sakura broke apart. Sakura was already walking around still wearing Shinobu's necklace before Fumi told her the truth even.

Lol.
This was complete and utter dogshit.

Everything I said was going to happen got done.
They made Shinobu a DOUBLE CUCK.

OH MY WORD.
I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING AT HOW ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE THIS IS.

THIS is what happens when you let NTR writers write anything other than their demented nonsense.
Especially as a serialized work.

Airi is a dogshit writer like every other NTR author.
Using copious amounts of sex to cover a terrible work.

There is literally only two people inside this story who hasn't been either character assassinated or turned into a cuck.

Do you know where they are? Not interacting with the main plot.
At least not for the longest time.

She made another serialized work that ends with the main character getting cucked and smiling about it.

I hate to stereotype a nation of people, but she's not helping the stereotypes about JP NSFW artists being cuck enthusiasts

This is one of the worst mangas I've ever read.

Katsura Airi can't write shit even if her life depended on it.

I will look back on this story, remembering the absolute moronism that was this garbage.

- 20/10
Let's hope Katsura Airi learns from this.
Pfft
Who am I kidding?
She's still writing her NTR elsewhere.
She's never going to change.

Oh well.
That's enough for this nonsense.
I'll see you guys when the next chapter of "It's a little late, but I've fallen in love with my childhood friend" comes out.

Good bye.

garnt is a part of the trash taste podcast with cdawgva and animeman
If the name checks out they might be able to find their Mona Lisa lol, jokes aside I have seen a couple of clips from them, I think they would probably have a couple of interesting opinions for sure (if they don’t go over the top to try to clip-farm or something like that). Same as for the lady you mentioned before, syd, this can be good content if dealt with correctly.

Shimazaki makes for a decent mouthwash read, still ongoing and just picked up again. A lot less upfront lewds but pretty similar to GraPara! minus the NTR and instead of gravure idol it's a H-illustrator mangaka that MC idolizes.

Reddit manga users saw over 5,000 comments on the final chapter thread and were like, "What the heck?"

I agree. The ending could have been ten times worse (imagine if it were a villain instead of an NPC actor), but the choice of presentation in the last few pages didn't help at all.

@A.Tanakaaa At least Fumi and Sakura broke up. Sakura was still walking around wearing Shinobu's necklace even before Fumi told her the truth.
I like this image. The emphasis on the chest area seems to convey that Sakura's heart has been freed from misunderstanding.

But one thing I noticed after Sakura broke up with Shinobu was that she seemed sad and not very happy.

Perhaps it is the karma she is reaping.
