Ueno-kun wa Kaihatsuzumi - Ch. 81 - Fistfight

[MasterKurosawaKakeru]

literally fighting over the dude and in a competitive match with actual rules is hilarious and something new (or at least rare) in the manga world.

Yeah, I found it very funny to see the common trope of two dudes settling their differences with a fist fight so they can repair their friendship being gender flipped like this. Definitely don't recall a lot of other instances of this happening.

i suppose that's one way to fight

holy cinema

and riku's back i guess...

Good plot developement.
Nontheless, I'd like to see a lewd edit of this page with both girls being naked.

Shonen-ass resolution, but it was worth it for them telling him to butt out.

Why is this even leaning towards a path where Moka is still friends with these bitches? Why is it her path to heal from a toxic guy to stay friends with three toxic women who betrayed her?

Technically speaking she's not staying friends with all three of them, only Chisaki and Tsubomi, but yea, I still partially wished that Moka and Ueno had separated from them but considering the nature of this series, I don't think it was ever going to get that deep.

The best ending for everyone is Ueno & Moka overcoming their difficulties together, while bully trio get their fix violating emo boy and putting him in his place.

Riku getting the bully trio is unironically too good of an ending for him.

 

[Chris-From-MrBeast]

Can't stop laughing at the dude saying: "How emo"

he thinks too highly of himself. Chisaki beating him up like she did to those other guys and kanako can go at him with a strap on or something idk. I just know he’s a dumbass who deserves it

 

[yuriie]

The author keep dragging this manga to nowhere

 

[drepurp]

Ueno, practice your hands. You're gonna need them if thats who I think it is.

I've read in the comments that it was officially announced that the series was coming to an end. Anyone have a source?

---

I see two possibilities:

1. This is just a redux of Ueno with Chisaki. It allows Moka, and perhaps the ex, to finally move on. However, that seems rather limp for this place in the story. Especially if the series is ending soon. A lackluster ending.
   • I could see Moka having an epiphany when resisting the ex. Which for this series is her getting very turned on by being a dom. Thus the newly awakened dom Moka has an already "developed" partner with Ueno. An easy, and disappointing, ending.
   • The only thing worse would be "a few years later" time skip to gloss over all the messy details.
2. This is a redo of Ueno with Chisaki. But this time the person in question fails to overcome. Moka regresses, or less negatively accepts that Ueno isn't right for her. Either way, she doesn't move on but moves out. Chisaki, for the first time, doesn't "bully" Ueno but comforts him, allowing for one final, degenerate scene. A rushed ending.

But all that's if the author has declared that there's only a few chapters left.


Otherwise the author could technically do anything. Moka wants to learn to dom Ueno and gets her (superior) sister to help. Or Chisaki. Or just joins the trio. Or replaces the yuri girl. Or aliens invade and in order for the trio to use their magical girl powers they need to bully Ueno.

Spoiler: Timeline of the Mangaka's tweets about the ending date of the manga.

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1993212728635474242

(Mangaka mentioned in the tweet posted on November 2025 that he believes that the series will end next year around that time).

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2006415925772218761

(In a New Years tweet, the mangaka believes that the series will end 'sometime' this year).

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2013943820254077276

Mangaka mentioned that he started work for his next project and how he feels like the series' ending is 'coming into view'.

I'm not aware of an exact date or chapter posted by the mangaka or anyone from Yanmaga that this series will end yet; only a confirmation from the mangaka that this series is ending sometime this year. With almost all the major plot points completed, I would be surprised if this series go past chapter 92/volume 11.

All I can expect from the recent developments and Riku coming back is that he might get beaten up by more people

Chisaki, the typical tsundere girl, but cold. It's obvious that Chisaki has feelings for Ueno-kun; it's not just masochism or that he's the only one she feels for him. There are deeper feelings, which is why she let Ueno-kun go so he could find happiness with Manaka. Chisaki let Ueno-kun go so he could be happy because she truly feels something for him. That's why Ueno-kun in previous chapters seems a little sad or discouraged that she sacrificed her desire for him so he could find happiness, but that's not the case. It's the kind of cliché where they shouldn't be together, but fate wants them to be, even though they don't want to be. Besides, Ueno-kun and Manaka seem like a couple who want to get off drugs, and they do, but they only end up as friends who got off drugs. They're so focused on leaving the past behind that they forget they're a couple. When they break free from that programming, they'll be fine, but when they want to be together, they won't know what to do. Manaka can fight, but I don't think she'll do what Chisaki or Ueno-kun did to her. Makana and Ueno-kun don't really like each other; they just want to break the programming, that's all. That's why Chisaki said he was going to find someone like himself to be his slave for life—that's what happens when you get married—and she left the door open for Ueno-kun if he's interested in coming back.
Ueno-kun realized that Chisaki had found happiness with him and was happy only with him, When Chisaki thought she was having sex with Ueno-kun, she felt happy and free.

had a hunch last chapter that the author might have manacuck's ex make an appearance once again, should really not drag this any longer tbh

 

[Jethzki]

Fmc's turn now, if she does sleep with her ex, ueno should just let it go bro, theres tons of less mentally illd people you can meet in your life

 

[phorx]

Every character has made some progress except for Chisaki, who if anything, is doubling down on being a piece of shit.

Some people see change as an admission that they’ve been wrong in the past and clearly Chisaki is incapable of admitting any wrongdoing. She still hasn’t even apologized to Moka, she just said she could hit her (no, that’s not an apology).

Honestly there’s a lot in this series that challenges the reader’s ability to defy their disbelief. For me, the hardest thing to take is that Moka didn’t immediately sever her relationships with the bullies. They did her dirty from day 0 and lied to her face every day they knew her. Nobody would bother to keep people around when they never could know what was real or fake.

they aren't fighting over him, they're fighting over the future of their friendship
