Someone's Girlfriend - Ch. 56 - Nothing Left to Give

[KoishiSatori]

I don't particularly want to defend this series (I don't even read it regularly, just drop by once in a while) but why do you guys still comment it on chapter 55 if you find it so terrible?
Just drop it, that's what I do for series I really dislike.

it's not that hard bro
some people started liking but after some time grows tired of this shit show
others just want to engage
i'm here just to save image of the hot chicken in the cover and move on

 

[essensue]

To this point I'm just reading this hot pile of garbage to know what is so mysterious. What is the mystery involving her and Takt.. etc. Once that comes to light I'll probably drop it since I hate things that beat around the bush repeatedly.

Take your pick - hope this sets you free for a little while.

Spoiler: Shizuku is...

• being married off to a villainous country noble.
• dying of “cancer of the everything.”
• being sent overseas for school.
• being sent overseas for rape counseling.
• being sent overseas for gender confirmation surgery.
• getting an abortion.
• badly needed on her home planet.
• actually a ghost.
• wearing an invisible bomb collar.
• scheduled to defeat the demon king in another world.
• doing much better on her own now.
• cursed by a witch.
• paying for Riku’s secret gene therapy with her body.
• double-booked on NTREVENGE as a replacement childhood friend.
• deep undercover.
• actually a stack of 9 pomeranians in a trench coat.
• going to die soon without a brain transplant, the only possible donor for which is Riku.
• unable to keep hiding that every night, she switches bodies with Takt.
• just fucking with Riku's head and wasn't lying in chapter 1 when she said it was a prank.

Oh boy ntr bait. Knowing this author's infamous one shot it might not be bait this time will likely end stupid though

Fine, I'll bite. What one shot are you talking about?

 

[essensue]

Fine, I'll bite. What one shot are you talking about?

This one. It's bad, and the NTR part is like, not even its biggest problem.

 

[Skater901]

When did Shizuku reveal information about her situation to Riku? I don't think she's ever done that. Takuto seems to know something, and she explained things to the rapey restaurant owner guy to stop him from raping her, but I don't think Riku knows anything that we, the audience, don't know.

It'll be under the author's works just click his name it's on mangadex. But be prepared it's weapons grade stupid

Yeah. The only thing I found by fast re-reading is that she told him she can't be with him, but still wants him to pursue her on his own and to lose his v-card/stuff to her so that he will remember her even if he marries someone else in future. But AFAIK she never out-right told him WTF is happening behind the scenes. She did ad that its close to the "end time" - aka that MC has limited time to "fuck" her, and him failing to do so after the beach trip when they gone alone by train to some place was "last chance" - cause then she "disappeared".

I think most people here "were" or "are" those teenagers...

I was a teenager, I drunk alcohol, did some weed, once or twice some "easy mode" drugs - thou I did know that most people don't really do those. But girls? Nope not on my radar - playing games at evening/night, riding bikes with friends at day, doing some of that alco/drugs stupid stuff in between. Sure I fancy the tits owning human variety, but my interest mixed with shyness and introvertness didn't really give me "any game" on that front.

Teens as described by that guy were like a margin - people disliked by others, shunned away, etc. I personally don't know a single person who fucked left and right, cheated and used only his dick as his brain in their teens, but I may be biassed cause of the mentioned personality - which for sure gave me a certain type of people who I had around me.

Sheesh, you two really weren't kidding, I really had to put down the phone and stare at the void for a solid minute to process the brainrot of every character.

 

[muttarpaneer]

This is way better than rental girlfriend.

Can't change my mind.

That's what I meant. It's still terrible but MCs braincells aren't bogged down by semen

See why I have so little hope for the end of this manga the only thing for sure is it's going to be stupid really stupid.

The only thing that makes any sense as to what's going on is that her and the best friend are in an arranged marriage and he made a bet with her that if the mc does make a move on her he will call it off if he doesn't she has the marry him after graduation. She wasn't allowed to tell him either and would explain the bf's behavior. She isn't dying in my opinion since she told the black mail guy that she would do it with him after she did something else meaning what ever it is it's something she will survive.

Right, but the fact that it's the only thing that makes any sense given the evidence we've seen so far also completely excludes it as a possibility. Let's try something more like:

Shizuku has been dead since chapter 28, and everything after is Riku’s gibbering fantasy in the cave which he’s scrawled on the walls in his own poo while he awaits a rescue that will never come, cradling her body. 🤫

Yea I want to actually see the real reason not assumptions (which I've also thought about of course). Lol

Absolute dog shit. Would've been in the morning news the next day.

I could see this as a working explanation - and one could even see it as tragic - MC lost the girl he loves cause he didn't pursue her to not hurt his best male friend - who in the long run doesn't really love her, and gives no fucks about MC if he does games like this. It could even work with the "I can't be with you, and I want you to be the one initiating things" - aka she is in arranged marriage, can't be with MC, at least till he himself purses her, without her outright telling him.

Works a bit more than the other dude's theory - of Takt being just a watcher if she doesn't do anything stupid - especially that in earlier chapters IIRC Shizuku came to MC after Takt supposedly tried to get into her pants or something.

But there are 2 things that make this kinda not really a good theory.

1 - This whole "I can't give you anything any more" which suggest she lost her v-card, and her talk with mom in the car afterwards - doesn't really fit this forced marriage with Takt thingy.
2 - She would need to be basically bugged 24/7 with someone listening to her or stalking her, and/or she would need to be retarded - cause this bet could be easily won if she told MC whats up, they did the thing, and then later just lied that MC pursued her himself like the bet demanded or something.

If we go this route - then why not this:

Everything is MC dream - in the end this whole manga started cause MC dreamt about Shizuku and woke up in middle of the class shouting her name IIRC. So like what if this is a dream in a dream kinda thing lol.

Thou this won't be tragic/dramatic - and author supposedly told that this manga will end with a tragedy or something.

-snip-

1 - The marriage has been consummated with or without consent, for example
2 - We haven't been introduced to Shizuku's family because they're a literal ninja clan! Or they're going to use truth serum on her, even though this plan wouldn't solve it AND that doesn't exist. Or, realistically, the 'requirement' that Riku be the one to pursue her is just an emotional one Shizuku set where if he meets that threshold, he loves her enough for her to justify running away and bringing him with, or fighting it, or whatever. Because that would be dumb as hell.

3- Hahaha, "I see your Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge and raise you Dallas." Okay, my turn? This manga ends and it's revealed that this is the manga that Haruki from that oneshot won an award for.

Ya but it's just stupid enough and convoluted enough to work. The MC is pretty dense and she has literally been throwing herself at him I think she is just frustrated. But what ever the big mystery is it's not going to be satisfying or a worthwhile excuse to her actions

OK so my theory is this for sake of being as tragic as possible ending:

Umimi - ends up alone "without family with MC" she wished for, possibly cause she did something stupid (even worse than her SA/Rape attempts) and was shunned or even jailed.

Shizuku and Takt are in their arranged loveless marriage - loveless cause Takt loves her, but she doesn't love him, and is forever "angry" that she didn't win MC.

MC ends up with Yako - which is a sad ending - cause Yako the only sane girl "won", but what she won is being a couple with a dense mofo who will never stop loving Shizuku, so she is sad in this relationship, with potential breakup to put a cherry on top of the sadness.

If we want to increase the tragic-ness one or more of the characters could "play sudoku".

This would explain why Takt tried dating Umimi - to forget Shizuku - but it didn't work. Later he either won her, when she gave up trying to make MC fall for her, or Takt used his parents to get the arranged marriage thing and get Shizuku by force. Maybe even gave her the "door" to run away, if she managed to lure MC, but MCs friendship with asshole Takt won every time. Umimi/Yako didn't manage to overwrite MCs love for Shizuku.

MC find out why Shizu/Takt are married, how Takt never was his real friend, how he lost his crush to his "idealized" friend, cause he would rather protect male friendship with a fraud rather than "damage it" and go after his love/crush. Shizu sad cause forced marriage, Takt sad cause he won, but the girl hates him so the sex/stuff is just miserable.

Y'all reckon he actually dense? I feel like there's plenty of textual evidence that, unless proven otherwise, every incidence of Riku failing to address a woman's obvious feelings should be treated as completely deliberate on his part because he's a cowardly, selfish piece of shit.

By dense I don't mean the typical "Harem MC dense", but something kinda else - like a mixture of being stupid/blinded by some feelings/outright bad/evil.

I mean Umimi masturbated with his hands - he was awake at that time IIRC. She tried to date Takt cause of her some weird ideas of being with MC cause Takt is like his brother - so she would be a family with MC that way or something, but part of her thinking this was cause MC was talking about Takt like Takt is some kinda god worthy of worship.

Shizuku finds out after MCs day-dreams about her, that maybe she has a chance and thus basically tries to lure him to fuck her, she even told him she wants him to go after her by himself and not just accept her advances, and stuff. But MC every time thinks about Takt his best friend and chickens out - even thou the stuff they already did is kinda bad/cheating (they both used hands to give orgasms to the other one).

So like he isn't dense cause oblivious to women feelings towards him, but dense cause coward to actually do what he should do, he orbits around Shizuku, but never fucking lands, cause moon Takt is in the way.

Basically its a trio of supposed best friends - and every single one of them are assholes/idiots/evil.
Umimi is just mentally broken by he broken family and was just used as kinda some plot device - to tell us that Takt tried to forget his love for someone - be it gayness for MC or actual love for Shizuku - using his own parents to force Shizuku to be his would be more evil/tragic, thou him marring her cause parents forced him, while he is gay and loves MC could be tragic too - not evil at least at his part thou.
Yako is just cute best girl - either another plot device to push Umimi to do things, or to give us sane people something to attach to and not drop this manga.
