Senpai ga Uzai Kouhai no Hanashi - Ch. 230

[Mongolian-Beef]

Now we wait 20 more chapters for a tiny bit of progress.

But hey, slowly but surely

20? More like 200

 

[Pajil]

I'm sorry but i have to.

 

[akasugi]

I still don't trust Shiromanta to pull this out of the gutter yet.

He's gonna refuse the overseas assignment.

Or offer to take her with him... that's the way I hope it goes, anyway...

 

[peangin]

Do you think he is going to kick her down them? THIS IS SPARTA!

I know this will sound negative but I don't like the way we can see the stairs on the last page

Author's an insecure coomer and he never draws hetero art for fanbox unless the man is faceless or off screen (even with Yuto's sister and her bf), but he's drawn a bunch of Igarashi art where the man is obviously much bigger and has giant hands, so the implication is there.

(Back on topic)

Honestly I'm kind of worried that he'd try to end it like Blue Flag with senpai accepting Igarashi but somehow they break up off screen and Natsumi gets together with Igarashi in the epilogue out of nowhere.

The symbolism in their names are even there: Harumi (senpai) means spring, Natsumi means summer, and summer comes after spring.

It would disrespect Natsumi and Igarashi's character growth and the story's overall theme of growing up and moving forward. It would also be more unearned and hollow than if senpai accepts Igarashi, because it was at least hinted that senpai reciprocates on some level while Igarashi has never been aware of Natsumi's real feelings in any way.

I don't think he was even planning at first for a possible yuri subplot, but if you follow the timeline of his fanbox along with the manga, you can see Natsumi gradually becoming his favorite waifu to draw lewds of in addition to Igarashi. If he ends up entertaining the yuri end it's likely because he grew too attached to his porn OC's and wants them to stay pure from the influence of men in the canon story and save them for his fantasies. It's kinda.... yeah.

If you think "there's no way it's actually that creepy", maybe it's not, but he's been posting teasers for a fanbox side project of a full length doujin with high school age Natsumi and Igarashi that involves giantess scenes (and possibly piss kink stuff) for almost an entire year, so I'm very skeptical of his intentions.

He realized he has to marry his waifus off to men and dragging his feet to do it as slowly as possible.

Pixiv engagement keeps falling off for chapter updates and he knows he'll get reader spikes if he keeps writing cliffhangers. This manga feels like a chore now for me. Seeing a chapter get posted feels like seeing my electric bill every month. I just want the story to be over so my hyperfixated brain can use the mind space for something else after all these years.

I hate to say it but you do make sense.

 

[Rebootedc]

It happened.

 

[Halo_Hybrid]

Imminent S.E.X. Incoming!

 

[CrustyGraffiti]

I still don't trust Shiromanta to pull this out of the gutter yet.

Same. Best thing I expect from him right now is a limp but pretty okay ending like Tomo-chan, but I really hope he'd actually wrap everything up with something good.

I hate to say it but you do make sense.

I'm tired, boss.

 

[Parejus_Maximus]

Finally some effing food man, you were pulling a starvin' Marvin on us.

 

[qck_noc]

thank you for the scan <3

 

[FiddlePop]

Thank you, I just came here to see this meme, I no longer care what is going on with the main couple

 

[te-kun]

I sorta wish he turns her down.

Too late, he already turned her on.

 

[Tsuranuki]

Welp, the publisher announced this will end with Volume 13, so these might already be the last chapters considering the length of previous volumes.

 

[Hyuu.]

when will it continue?!!

 

[Penquinn]

Thanks for the chapter but honestly? This series is still meh with how long everything is taking. 230 chapters to finally get a confession? And I don't want to sound like a pessimist but knowing the authors track record with stuff like this in the story that means we'll probably get another 30 chapters before there's more progress past this point, or we'll only get the response after a full week of time has passed in the story because apparently everyone in that world feels emotions as quickly as molasses. I used to be so excited to read the updates on this story but they really just slowly killed any excitement I had for it by dragging everything out way too long. A romcom story built entirely around it being a romcom "will they won't they" situation shouldn't take over half a decade to get the FIRST CONFESSION OF ANY FEELINGS
