Karakai Jouzu no (Moto) Takagi-san - Ch. 165

[BasilD]

This man is so sweet to his family every day and then he gets PLAYED into giving them hugs, poor dude

Though honestly, they're so damn wholesome???

 

[RandomFacepalm]

I don't know if I'm the only one, but I guess it would be culture. It would be embarrassing for me to hug my wife if there were kids in front.

 

[FlyingThunder]

would it kill the author to just draw them hugging? why is he so scared?

 

[Coltbolt]

my heart, it just can't handle this anymore

 

[altmaria]

@FlyingThunder the author has been heavily implying in this manga that intimacy happens outside of the drawn story, with a topping Takagi. What we see is just foreplay, and they keep it innocent because their kid is with them. Takagi pokes Nishikata because she knows she can, as he will always keep his composure if their daughter is there.

That's why the author never escalates, that's why you almost never see their bedroom. They still go to sleep at night in the same bedroom, and I'm pretty sure a whole day of teasing does have the obvious conclusion before going to sleep, but obviously, that happens outside what's drawn and it's up to us to connect the dots.

Plenty of real life couples do this when they have kids.

The comment section is wholesome as always

 

[Legacy98]

@freedomfighter1231 yep

 

[Legacy98]

Ngl this title comment section sometime can turn to be one of the worst in MD, only rivaled by sniping-drama

 

[Daviidcou]

I wish Nishikata would stop being such a grade schooler.
You can hug your wife, it's fine, no one's gonna think your a pussy, no one's gonna think that's lewd, not even your daughter.

 

[Huqeo]

Ahhhhhh

 

[IPN-LiQuiD]

Can't this man love his wife for once? Holy fuck I feel bad for Takagi.

 

[AnacondaHL]

the dreaded lose-lose hug situation

 

[Carterfoy]

Outplayed

@RandomFacepalm
It's just normal for the most of the world, I middle eastern and I have never seen any couple hugging, I hope those westerns realize one day that there is another cultures in the planet, of course they can comment what ever they want, but that makes them missing the beauty of the manga.

 

[Blitxaac]

As awkward as Nishikata is with Takagi, he sure knows how to be a great dad

 

[Lysias]

he's got a hot wife and a cute daughter
this motherfucker
I hate him

 

[lol480phuh]

@Lysias I read that as " he's got a cute wife and a hot daughter "

then immediately thought "what in world is wrong with me!?" lol

 

[fluffjunk13]

If there is a single panel where the three of them just group hugged, I'd vomit sugar

 

[OreokingMEGA]

At this point in these comics sometimes I think Takagi broke tradition and proposed to Nishikata

so warm, this is ideal
