When Will Ayumu Make His Move? - Vol. 17 Ch. 225 - The Final Move

[lengend]

Thanks for your work during all these years ! It was a fun trip !

 

[rgtm573]

The happiest ending. They still play shogi together. He also called her by her first name! aaaaaaaaaa

 

[jp-ls]

Truly one of the movements of all time when Ayumu said, "It's Shogi Time, Urushi".

 

[yetanothergeek]

Not a bad ending. But still, no kissing!? It's a worrying trend now that a lot of romcom manga are ending without even a kiss, WTF Japan!?

 

[kodakato]

Thanks for sticking with this to the end Harmless Monsters.

Now give us that Rin spin-off, Yamamoto.

 

[Mangamoz]

Yamamoto's rush to finish all of his long running series is suspicious as fuck to me.

Is he gonna retire?

Thanks for the translation, and thank you sensei for this comfy manga. It would be nice if we get a little bonus chapters with the other characters and maybe something more couple-like with this two. But anyways, it's been a long journey, takes me back to when I was suffering with seminar in the university and here I am working far away from home.

I wanted to see their fifteen children... 😢

 

[phabrykMaester]

These kids are adorkable

 

[ExistentialGhost]

also man this "hna" shit you guys kept translating got REALLY annoying, wtf was she saying all those times?

Don't blame the translator.
Urushi was literally just saying 「んあ」 in the original.

 

[Kurshir]

RIN DIED FOR THIS SHIT? BRO I SWEAR TO GOD I

 

[themanthemyth]

Don't blame the translator.
Urushi was literally just saying 「んあ」 in the original.

wow that changes everything

Despite the boring and LONG middle portion, and the fact that I started to really like Rin, I'm going miss this, been following this ever since it was just "Shogi Senpai" pre serialisation.

 

[EggMiner]

Love this fic. Are there any more chapters?

 

[MeePotato]

so? where's the segs?

 

[ARealCoolGuy]

5 years, we've finally reached the end boys.
It was a fun, fluffy romp. Good stuff.
Thanks to the translation team.

In particular, and this is apparently an unpopular opinion, the character of Rin has been useless throughout the whole story

You're both correct and incorrect. While the set-up was MC beating the FMC and then confessing to her, that was not really the point of the story. It was just a staging to spur interactions between characters, the actual confession was actually fairly unimportant (though it felt important due to how long it was dangled in front of us).
So Rin was unimportant to the actual confession story, nor did she ever make our boy waver, but she was another fun character who the others interacted with - in this case she perfectly fulfilled her role.

To put it simply; the story (the confession) was unimportant, the character interactions (and thus Rin's as well) were, as they were the entire bulk of this comic.

It's like being upset that K-On didn't end with the band becoming the next Beatles, when music and the band's career itself wasn't actually the point of the series.

Guy calls her by her name
Guy bends her over playing table, scattering all game pieces all over the floor

he wants to wrap up everything to transition to his isekai villainess manga arc

 

[Andrewthelord]

So goes Yamamoto. For how long it's to be decided.

 

[bluekosa]

Thank you so much TL team. You guys are the champ
