Imasara desu ga, Osananajimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimaimashita - Vol. 2.5 Ch. 13.5 - Endless Tears of Melancholy

[Saybah]

Endless Tears of Melancholy? Well it could be worse. It could be Endless Eight instead.

This title looks like something the translator came up with randomly.
The original title is 「ざ～ざ～、じゃぶじゃぶ」

@vipguy64, Fryght and story645 raised a valid point. Is there a solution for situations like this? I was wondering if it would be possible to organize the chapters into volumes and include this one as chapter 21.5.

I encourage people to try reporting the chapter for "Incorrect chapter number", and explain that it's a vol2 extra with HUGE spoilers if you read it before chapter 21. (Technically it also spoils part 2 a little by revealing that Yami was responsible for the breakup, so I suggested putting it after chapter 30, the end of vol 2.)

I tried reporting this issue months ago with the Spanish TL chapter, but was rejected. Hopefully if enough people report the same issue, they'll take it more seriously.

I SWEAR TO GOT IF IT REALLY ENDS WITH A TRADGEY END WITH THEM ALL GETTING HIT WITH A CAR OUT OF NOWHERE. ...fuck

 

[JashwanthGeass]

As much as I don't like Ayami, she made this Manga more dramatic and interesting for me.

 

[Alzu]

Makes what happens in chapter 21 all the more tragic, wonder if Hikari and Yami will fight.

God, this isn't fair

I have a feeling many are going to disagree

 

[drunkmuggle]

What is "edgy" about this?

buzzword

 

[rh75]

Maybe my take on things is different and I'm being too generous with events, but I think what is being shown is that people can't run from their feelings.

Yami tried to run from her feelings for Yuu and bury them. She failed.
She tried to give Yuu his happy ending in a shitty way to get him to move on. She failed.
Yami tried not to hurt Hikari once she realized who Hikari was in love with. Yami is currently failing.
She knows she isn't a good person(in her mind) and she doesn't deserve Yuu. Her heart says otherwise.

The only way all of this could've been avoided and Yuu/Hikari get their happy ending is if she had transferred schools and never met Hikari.

That would be a boring story

 

[Thyme.Minister]

Yami's inclusion is the romance.

Hard disagree lmao

 

[GennArc]

Hard disagree lmao

What's there to disagree about? Yami's flashback was about two people in love with each other. It is the romance of the story so far.

Oof, it hits me that in each of those examples you list (and your take on them,) that it's:

• Yami trying to do what she thinks is an overall good thing...
• ...by sacrificing what she thought would only be herself.

Also, with this chapter, add to that list: "Yami is trying to push Yuu and Hikari together by reassuring Hikari that Yuu loves her back. She may be wrong."

I think the most tragic thing about the pre-rugpull and more "present-day" post-rugpull chapters is that they show us that Yami actually was kind of successful in running from her feelings for Yuu to focus on the family she nuked to protect herself from her stepdad. Like, we see that Ayami is in a much better place where she can be Hikari's actual BFF and not just some project that Hikari's trying to save.

And all of that would have gone fine if he didn't accidentally find her again.

I'm not sure Yuu & Hikari's happy ending as a couple could be guaranteed unless Ayami and Yuu never met, though - it may have already been too late for them by the time Yuu fell for Yami, if he realized "Oh, THIS is love, and what I'd felt for Hikari all along was a childish crush/admiration."

Except Hikari apparently only realized she liked Yuu either while he was in a relationship or post break up, possibly b/c of how the experience with Aya helped him grow.

Which is the other tragedy, right? Yuu met Aya b/c he was trying for her school cause of Hikari & hooks up w/ her cause he thinks he has no shot w/ Hikari, so each side of the triangle directly happens because of the goings on on the other side.

Unfortunately not. If the author made it chapter 13.5, I'm not going to change its number even if it's a major spoiler. Perhaps @EijiRin could add a warning page that it's best if people read this chapter after reading chapter 21.

Chapters 1-21 are in volume 1 now. I don't have volume 2's tankoubon so I don't know for sure what chapters are in it.

Edit: I added 13.5 to volume 2. As @Catbowl noted it is an extra chapter that came out with volume 2.

Can't blame bro when yamis hotter anyway.
