author went with the safe route... lame... the web comics had more balls than this. Really disappointed, oh well... at least people are happy on the "happy ending". Just another TG that ended poorly again. So much for "bitter" exchange.

No I'm not mad about that. I'm mad about the fact that she had multiple opportunities to change but decided each time to simply blame other people or run away.
There has to be a limit to what you can place on others. I refuse to believe that someone can spend their entire life claiming that they had a fucked up childhood and that's why they can never turn their life around. If you look earlier in this series Yuuta would try to explain this to Yui multiple times, he would try to get her to change. His so called 'friend' was doing the exact opposite and always coddling Yui insisting that she shouldn't need to change. And actually it's funny to me hearing about the original ending and that Yuuta blamed himself AT ALL for what ended up happening. Yuuta finally put Yui in a situation where she needs to confront Yuuta.
She walks up to him and straight blames him for everything - he gets mad and calls her an idiot practically confessing to her.
So here's where she can actually GO TO YUUTA and fucking TALK
Instead? She goes to Glasses and says Yuuta fought with her, and then Glasses decides he should just confess to Yui.
Fucking nice bro.

Glasses internal thoughts were "I told him to be nice to her - and he wasn't nice - so I'll date her instead"
The fuck is with this white knight logic. Glasses deserves full blame for the original ending. He wasn't able to keep his white knight vow, manipulated their emotions, and fucked everything.

That's why I've been chilling with this new ending. Because for fucking once Yui started to change by telling Glasses to fuck off with his confession. My main complaint was that people were somehow in any fashion blaming Yuuta for what happens in this series. And lo and behold it literally had nothing to do with him but Yui instead. If you still want to continue to argue the Nature vs Nurture thing that's fine, I'll agree to disagree as to how much ones' environment affects ones' overall life choices/personality.

First of all. Thank you for possibly fucking up the experience for people that may have wanted to read the webcomic in future.

Secondly. Why do same story twice?

@mikegnesium because:
1- I didn't spoil nothing. Nothing I have said is different from what has been said below by people who read it.
2- webcomics only had 1 chapter of difference, namely the ending. So much for planning to read.. just 5 mins of your time.
3-It IS the same story, it had the same beginning, slight changes here and there but it's technically the same.

If you consider anything I say spoilers then don't read whats next, but imo this isn't spoilers.

If the author really wanted to tell a different story about this circumstances, then she wouldn't have developed anything about yuta and tachibana, those two had more development than yui and yuta.

I'm aggreviated by this ending because this ending has been done to death so many times already, bitter exchange was unique in the way how the ending ended in the webcomics. It explored a topic that other GB didn't. Now? not so much anymore. Bitter exchange was an onlook on how its like for two individuals to bodyswap, experiencing puberty and growing up as the other sex. In their experience they learn to cope and grow as a person, and may or may not result in a good ending. Bittersweet. This one? No.. yui learned jack shit from this experience, as many have said already, yui loves to victimize herself and put the blame on yuta and her surroundings, Yuta is literally the only one who grew up from this experience. Yui didn't learn to stand up on her own, and what was the solution? To bring their body back again? for what? so that yui realize how good it is to get her body back again? how like this time she can finally control her life again? she never did have control to begin with. I guess I'll be fine if yui after this chapter tries to be more proactive this time and help yuta instead of the majority of the story, where'in she's dead weight. I don't like them swapping back because I find that scenario to have more potential with helping yui develop, instead of this.

OHHHH MY GOD THIS IS THE WORST CLIFFHANGER EVER
i was so excited to see that yui got to go back to her body but then i realized yuta could be dead!! from being hit by that truck!!!
originally i had a lot more to this comment, but all of this has got me so fukkin dizzy and im illiterate so. hmm.
and i also wasnt gonna look at the raw comic but um the comments convinced me and i looked
it looks like it finally explains the kazuma and book things, and yuta seems to wake up!! wouldnt it be shitty if he had amnesia or soemthing lol worst ending ever. i would love to see them adjusting back to their lives (like with the parents and new friends....) also rip hikaru what's the end game with him
actually you know what...
so one of the comments says the original ending where yui commits suicide and honestly that shit's fucked lmao i honestly prefer this ending much more. i was predicting that she would commit suicide cause there was this one chapter a while back where yuta narrated "maybe it wouldn't have ended that way" and i was like o fucc she gon die. but she didnt!! and im glad for it. there's potential for her to develop as a character after this switch back

A Kdrama called "Secret garden" has the same plot point. One is in a coma, so the other one switches with the one in the coma and the coma one woke up in the healthy one's body. Pretty heart breaking stuff

Wait, people blamed Yuuta ? The hell ?

He's literally a one-man army that single-handedly fixed Yui's life for her without gaining anything in return. He's easily the best character in this story. He also never gave up, despite losing everything and being put in a worse position than Yui. He also developed the most out of any other character.

Yui better make a damn good wife for Yuuta.

They sure did. Here's a fun thread from back in the day if you care to read through the comments.
It was jarring to me how much more people identified with Yui over Yuuta with the body swap situation, and the manga as a whole.
Plus somehow people liked Kazuma. Which I think was more baffling.

That was so sad and adorable at the same time. When she wore the hat to school and he made fun of her for wearing it, and all she did was protect it and kept it on her head.
