Free Talk: Namaikizakari [Chapter 77]

To look at the pictures/Chinese scans, go here.

Well, Shou did leave for the party. And, left the two totally shocked by it. Even if Shizuka cannot believe that Shou would do that kind of thing to his own girlfriend, it’s good that he stopped himself from taking advantage of it.

Hehe, he’s pretty much knocking himself on the wall like Yuki for even thinking of taking advantage of it. Haha, as I mentioned to others before. This guy won’t do anything to Yuki nor is he someone Shou should be overly weary about. Lol, he already thinks of himself as a scum for just having that thought.

Yuki is acting okay with it and just letting Shou do want he wants. After all, she thinks that they’re college students and Shou also has his own interpersonal relationships. It’s the usual, ‘I’m mature and I won’t hinder you if you want to go/do something.’ In the end, they both just stare at their ‘no message’ cellphones the whole night. ^^;

 ゜*○o..:*(*´-ω)(ω-`*)*:..o○*

The next day, Yuki is still acting cool as if there’s nothing to worry about. Usami-san has to tell her that college isn’t the same as high school since the girls here would prey on Shou. Because of that, Yuki looks suspicious of Shou.

Ah, I wonder if it is good to tell her that or not good to tell her that. ^^; Because either way, it is not good for Shou. She’ll be either ‘ignore’ him or be ‘suspicious’ of him. ^^;; Since Shou is asking directions to the commerce club <- where Usami-san learned about college girls preying on guys, Yuki casually asked what happened to the club.

Shou said that he and Abe left halfway then mentioned a lot of people are asking for his contact number. It does seem that he is trying to get a reaction from her since he even asked if she’ll be angry if he told them. Since Yuki don’t want to act like she doesn’t trust him, Yuki says that she doesn’t mind it. Hehe, sorry, Shou. You need to do more to get her to tell you her true feelings. =P 

Since Yuki seems a bit at a loss or jealous that Shou already have friends, so she quickly left him. Well, that can make one feel ‘outside the group’ since she doesn’t know them. As usual, Shou knows something’s up with Yuki. And as usual, Yuki is thinking that this is all natural. He has his own life in college, she cannot be naïve and think that they’ll always be together like what Shou told her earlier. 
 
*○o..:*(*´-ω)(ω-`*)*:..o○*
  
And just when Abe and Shou are going to eat, they see ‘stalking’ Shizuka. Abe wanted to tease him that he was hiding from a teacher. Haha, to his anger and shock, girls are looking for Shizuka to eat out with him. Well, the two guys talk seem to be some sort of mutual understanding that Shou and Yuki are too close so Shizuka shouldn’t go too near Yuki.

Shou also knows that he’ll be unhappy that Shizuka and Yuki will have a member-manager relationship since Yuki cannot alienate Shizuka. Apparently, he was just acting childish earlier since he also knew that Shizuka chose the school for the school and not Yuki. Lol, still, Shou is jealous. He’ll allow that kind of interaction between the two but smiling is forbidden. Hehe, of course, being clueless like Yuki, Shizuka doesn’t know why. Even if Abe hinted that it is a weapon. =P 

*○o..:*(*´-ω)(ω-`*)*:..o○*

And, Yuki has stumbled upon lost in thought Suwa at the storage area. Yuki was concerned that she asked if he’s alright since he looks in pain and uncomfortable. Suwa tells her that he is thinking of the girl he parted with before. Hm...I immediately wondered if that person is like Yuki. Perhaps, Yuki and Shou’s relationship was what he had before?

Suwa start to ask about Shou coming to school. Hm, Yuki does seem to really treat him as someone to talk to since she mentioned about Usami-san’s suggestion to keep Shou on a leash. Suwa’s advice is more on letting go of apprehensions and stay at Shou’s side since they are ‘each other’s sunshine’. So, is that a lesson from his past experience? Perhaps, Shou somehow reminded Suwa of himself before. 

*○o..:*(*´-ω)(ω-`*)*:..o○*

Anyway, thanks to that, Yuki took the initiative to wait for Shou and invite him to her house. And, he came out with friends and even he asked her if he can go out with them. ^^; She is about to say no but she’s weak against friends begging her to lend Shou to them. So, yup, it’s okay, go with them. She turns to leave with hopes of trying that again next time.

And, it is Shou’s turn to take the initiative to go with her by pretending to have a stomachache. ^^; Haha, he asked her a really direct question, do you care about me as long as I have a stomachache or foot ache. Yes, because that’s how Yuki is programmed to be. =P

*○o..:*(*´-ω)(ω-`*)*:..o○*

Finally, Shou confronted her why she agreed for him to go to the party. What if he went to some other girl’s house? What if he went out on a date with someone else? Will she say ‘okay’? And why is she always acting mature and why act like a strange when she’s his girlfriend? Why she acted that she doesn’t know when she knows everything about him?

So, Yuki realized that Shou was deliberately making her worried and he’ll do this childish thing at this age. Shou claims he doesn’t know and maybe he returned to being a first year high schooler. She says that rather, it is going back to baby stage and he isn’t a bit cute. So, they made up and have lovey-dovey.

How nice of Shou to re-assure her that a lot of things will happen afterwards and there will be many people he’ll meet but she’s the only one he likes ^^ He knocks his head on hers when she tells him that it is okay for him to go to parties and exchange contact numbers if it’s necessary. Then, she tells him to properly tell her the WORDS HE SAID JUST NOW when they’re alone. =P Hehe, Shou glomps her and cannot wait for them to go home.

*○o..:*(*´-ω)(ω-`*)*:..o○*

Well, Yuki thinks that Shou obviously knew that with merely those words, it is enough for her. Actually, it’s more or less mutual. In a way, they are making progress as they trust each other more since it is inevitable that they’ll meet other people. They just have to keep the lovey-dovey so that no one can get in between them.

It is more of a balance of not keeping anyone on a leash and not letting the other do whatever one wants to the point of acting like one doesn’t care. Haha, actually, they do need to improve their ‘reading what the other really thinks rather than basing things on what they say and do’ skills.

Well, the last scene of glum Suwa looking at Yuki again makes me think she reminds him of his ex. Perhaps, after that break up, he tried to cope with his loss by being a playboy. Is that a set-up for Usami-san to heal his heart type of scenario?

  4. Thank you so much! I thought it won't be a summary, I'm so happy!

    about the english Scans, I told ya .. :c

    Well, hakamada always don't know anything & just speak "how can he do that to his gf!" Well, shou didn't even put u in his mind, he was just solving an issue with his gf *_*
    + Like I told ya about that "take advantage-thing" the Mangaka proved it here by making him mention it, bcuz it's really seems like that, he's literally every time taking advantage of the situations *_*
    & Ya, it's bad just bcuz he thought of it. Like what even happened to take advantage of?! Argh ..
    What annoyed me that he said it like he's the who don't want to, like he can take advantage &_&
    + If he really likes he would know that doing those things may make problems for her and hurt her (if the bf isn't shou)

    Hehe, so shou was annoyed bcuz yuki didn't seem Jalouse/care (or didn't show it) and just left him with girls (I thought of it tho, hehe) so he played his last card and went to the party thinking she would stop him, haha. & Then he didn't gave up and waited her msgs/call, hehe
    Like, ya, imagine if yuki was surrounded by guys and shou just left her and go, she would feel weird & annoyed. Well, I recall she did something similar in chapter 54.

    Ah, did u see how yuki was waiting his call, she's so cute and beautiful!!

    And here, I like how the Mangaka left hakamada in high school (she didn't repeat the same antics)
    I felt the college's (or a new) atmosphere.

    shou naturally/unawarelly didn't think of him, but instead he thought of a more like Couple's worrying, I love that.

    shou did good by that, bcuz yuki should has more confidence of herself, even if they know what they're thinking, that's sometimes not enough in dealing with others.

    Tbh I got surprised when yuki franked to suwa like that even though she knows the person he is. And letting her guard down, she's really so careless with guys.

    Idk if it's ok to say that, but that kiss was so hot and beautiful!!! hehe

    Ya, she's acting like a stranger, hehe, shou's words are like always beautiful, meaningful and pointedly.

    But what did he mean by " Why r u acting like u don't know, when u know everything about me" ? (By the way I really like that sentence, hehe

    I really loved when yuki told him to said the words he just said when we're alone, sooo much feels, hehe
    And the fact that she decided and invited him to her house is soo beautiful, hehe

    So with that and what shou told her (I'll meet more ppl in the future) dose the Mangaka hits of his ex? Omg! Hehe

    I will continue the stuff I want to say tommorow, it's 3am and so sleepy!!
    I said that even though I wrote a looong comment again, I have problem in writing a short comment here
    ><

    Thank you again, if I knew that I would wait for ur summary and don't spoiled my self and saw the chapter yesterday, I thought of it and then said I shouldn't rise my hope, when I saw it I got Soo happy, (& it's so fast) you are so kind .. thank you!!!

  5. Thanks for reading, mary scent ^-^

    Ya...

    Haha, ya. Though, at least now he's aware. Before, I'll give him some leeway since he isn't sure of his feelings and stuff.

    Hm...thinking of it, even if he takes advantage and he knew that he has no hope in getting in between the two, won't that be to make himself look good rather than actually attempting to stealing her?

    True. Haha, for me though, not exactly my type of scenario since it is like they're 'playing games' of some sort.

    Thankfully, she didn't.

    I actually think they don't exactly know what the other is thinking or at least, the intention. ^^; One has to analyze the possible reason why the other is saying/acting that way. Usually, it ends up being resolved when they talk about it + assurance of love. ^^

    Maybe Suwa gives off an older brotherly feeling. =P Usami-san is more like an older sister even if they're of the same age.

    Yup. Yuki isn't exactly confident on her new role as gf. It is also against her 'nature' to be selfish/self-centered.

    It was a paraphrase. What he said was, "Obviously, whether it is the thing that I'm sensitive about or even my embarrassed expression, you know everything. How come you'll pretend that you didn't know...?"

    Yup ^^ Lovers' quality time is important.

    Possible.

    Haha...I understand. My attempts at short summaries always fail.

    =)

  6. ^^

    Make himself look good so he can has a chance like that? U meant that?

    Mm.. ya, but not a bad/serious games but a lovely/Pampered games, hehe

    Yep.

    Mm.. I don't exactly feel the same, I think they do know what the other is thinking, like here, shou is aware that yuki is feeling Jalouse but don't show it, so he tried to makes her show it, not makes her Jalouse (mm..not exactly make her show the Jalouse, but makes her play her role as his GF) and his words at the end prove it. hehe, how is it?
    Yep ^^

    Mm..I see.
    But you know I got frustrated a little, when yuki noticed sawa's frustration + treat him kindly (also other guys) I mean, she's not like that with shou..
    She can read what the others thinks, but ..oh pls tell me I'm wrong!
    And that thing, I don't think sawa will just treat it like nothing.

    Ya. About that I like how the Mangaka make their personalities develops realistically, like how yuki got somehow glumy here bcuz of shou's friends. And when she wanted if they were alone in hakone, even if she knew that's somehow selfishness, she couldn't help it, shou always was feeling that way bcuz he was really falling for her, so when she's falling for him more & more she found herself acting like him (like anyone in love tho)

    Ohhh, I see ^^

    Hehe, yep.

    Haha, that's a relief.

    About the Mangaka didn't make shou move, i recall when Yuki's dad told her about moving he mentioned that she should study in a more proper atmosphere, if about that, shou house is ok from that side (maybe, hehe)
    + I recall yuki told shou (ch 54) that the club (in high school) don't take a 30mn to get there when he was in her house (so it's ok in that side too, and so yuki didn't move bcuz of the distance)
    But it's still somehow an necessary adult-move to move when they get in college, right? Hehe

    Kat, maybe that not important to you and to some others, but for me it's so important, hehe..it's the fashion, I mean shou is so stylish (even yuki and the other characters) I love his outfits so much, most Mangas don't pay attention or just draw an old outfits, but Namaikizakari's sense of fashion is great, well it's the trends now days, I really love that.

    (^^)

    1. No. I'm thinking of 'look good' in terms of not wanting to show a bad side to your crush-type of thing.

      True.

      Perhaps, I got that impression because when Yuki said that he deliberately made her worried. He asked were you worried. I assumed that he didn't know but then, he might be trying to get a reaction from her as you mentioned. Some sort of teasing, I guess.

      Haha. Could it be the 'notice everything else but not the one closest to you'-type of thing? ^^; Perhaps, because emotions aren't involved with other people? Yuki is also acting to 'look good' like she's mature, she won't interfere with what the boyfriend does even if it should make her jealous/act more jealous.

      In a way, it depends on the type of boyfriend. Some want more of that. Some doesn't want since it feels like 'they're on a leash'. I guess balance is the key. Yuki's decision to deal with that is quite good/ideal.

      'And that thing, I don't think sawa will just treat it like nothing.' <- in what way? For me, Suwa does seem to tease her or treat her like a lil sis. Not really crossing over to romance.

      Yup.

      Hm...was it mentioned that he didn't move? Yup, definitely not the distance. But I did get the impression that most Japanese live alone when they're in college.

      True ^^ Now that you mentioned it. It seems that Shizuka is dressed differently in college compared to the other laid-back casual outfits + backpack. =P

      Delete
  7. I see, ya, that's what it should be ^^

    I see. Yes ^^

    Yep, maybe.
    But I didn't mean just "Jalouse" but, like when shou feels down/depressed by something, but I think she would notice that/him when he gets like (like in ch 59..) ^^

    Haha, maybe.
    Yep. but, not totally good, cuz if it's on how yuki treat it, they won't spend anytime together.

    Haha, lil sis! So you didn't see chapter 78 & 79 yet, oh my ..I'm hurting :c

    Well, he didn't move. And ya, yuki mention that before in chapter 72 (she said "he don't has to move ..")
    Yep. Ya, maybe sometime later ^^

    Happy cuz you agree with me, hehe.
    Ah, even their practice outfits are beautiful and fashionable, hehe. shou's outfits in that chapter were so beautiful!!

    The other? U mean shou?
    Now you mentioned that, u know I didn't like hakamada's uniform in HS, I always dislike japanese private high School's uniforms (academy), its formal & not beautiful. In other hand I really love normal japanese high school's uniforms (for guys N girls) shou was looking so good in uniform, really miss that, I like him in uniform the most.
    But, hakamada wear a beautiful outfits too when they goes casual (ch 52, 67..)
    But you know i don't like men with hand bags, those are for girls, i like them with backpack, I find it more manly, hehe.

    Ahh,by the way did you see that Namaikizakari's live action? hehe

    =)

    1. Perhaps, it is more on Yuki will notice if the reaction is different from the usual.

      Haha, so I'm mistaken? ^^; Up to this chapter, Suwa seems to be hitting on her yet kind of restraint. Yet, he always give advice regarding their relationship. And ya, I haven't seen those yet. Still waiting for the Chinese scanlation ^^;

      I see.

      Yup.

      Others. Shou, Abe and guy friend. It is t-shirt/sweater type + backpack.


      Hehe, is that so.

      I know. But those who have hand bags are supposedly stylish, right? I think I usually seen celebrities/stylish men who use that.

      No. There is a live action? Movie or tv drama?

      Delete
    2. True, or bcuz of his expression, or the event (lose..) ^^

      Yep.
      Yep, How it would have been beautiful and realistic if the Mangaka made him just see her as a lil sis, but..

      I see, ya it's based on their personalities.
      but Abe, no, his look/outfits are not good.

      Ya, but celebrities use them for fame/work necessaries. and
      usually the normal men (even celebrities) who use them have a girly/not cool/unmanly personality ..
      I prefer the t-shirt or jacket ..etc + jeans + no bag at all, hehe (just in necessary = backpack) ^^

      Yep, a movie. They released it on 20th,Feb

      (n_n)

    3. By the way Kat, do you know why outakumole not available for everyone?

      =)

    4. Oh...okay. So that means, in college, Suwa is going to take over the role of being the 'other guy' from Shizuka?

      Lol. Is that so.

      I agree. I was like o_O;; before when it was first introduced. And basically, the same reaction as yours.

      Aside from backpack, I think a sling bag is okay. So, I'm a bit surprised that the mangaka made Shizuka use that kind of bag. It doesn't seem to fit his personality. I can 'see'/envision Suwa using it, actually. =P

      Is that so. Strange, how come it wasn't advertised in the manga through the magazine?

      I don't know the official reason. The rumors were that the publishers will sue the site or something because of uploading raws. At that time, some sites that provide raws had shut down. So perhaps, to keep the site up and in order not to get into trouble, the site went 'private'.

      Delete
    5. Yep, think so. But not exactly bcuz he's kind of confessed (oh, spoiler, can't say more، hehe)
      But don't get me wrong he don't like here, it's like، the past-love-failed-so-i-take-my-frustration-out-on-you type Rival kun 😑

      (But I can't trust hakamada he may pop up from nowhere like always &_&)

      = I have a lot to say in ch 78 and 79, especially about that annoying sawa (x_x) and i need ur opinion, especially in something ><

      Ya, hehe.
      Yep, tbh I'm so open about new fashion but only that trend I couldn't accept it.

      Or how shou was swinging his school bag, hehe.
      Hakamada is using backpack, right? Yep, happy cuz she made him use that, hehe. he may looks not cool but this a sensitive thing, hehe
      Oh, no no, don't let him deceive you, he's not cool no nothing, for me he's more feminine so I'm not surprised 😒
      See hakamada cooler than him +_+

      They did, its actually released along with volume 12 (and ch 78) so they posted pics/details on the book 12 and gave a poster of the actor who played shou.
      But ya, I was surprised bcuz they didn't inform us ahead in the previous chapters.

      But some are complaining that the actor who played shou didn't give shou's personality.. well, they're right though, hehe.

      By the way, volume 12 did a hint (selling, ranking..) all 1st .. hehe.


      Oh, I see. It's must be that. Thanks!

      (^^)

    6. I see.

      Lol. Living up to his 'stalker' fame.

      We'll talk about it when we get there ^^

      Hehe, is that so. I had somehow gotten used to it. I have seen Jap and Kor male celebrities using those. It isn't something any male can pull off. I think of it like when pink shirts on men had been kind of popular/okay thing to wear.

      'don't let him deceive you, he's not cool no nothing' <- are you referring to Suwa? It depends. In real life, I would think most women would think Suwa is cooler. Lol, that 'bad boy' aura who can charm you. Dangerous-sexy type. Shizuka is tamer and perhaps, 'nice girls' would prefer him more. Or perhaps, strong women who can easily 'control' him.

      Lol, that's my impression of Shizuka. Quite timid. Whenever he's daring, he'll quickly regret it later on. Not the type who'll consciously do bad things unless due to impulses, etc. Can be very loyal and dedicated on something/someone. So, that crush won't easily go away.

      I see. But you mentioned it was already out in Feb. Shouldn't they advertise first to get fans excited before releasing the drama? ^^; Very strange.

      I'm not surprised about that. In most shoujo, they usually just get the popular guy/idol who isn't exactly a good actor. Sometimes, it's for the 'looks' I guess.

      Delete
    7. Haha, yep! I was surprised when I saw everybody calling him "stalker" .. but then i thought it's true, lol.

      Yep, true.


      Yep, sawa. Yep, but for me he's not. "nice girl"? For me I definitely won't like or want someone like hakamada in my life.
      When he blush, talk.. that way it's really annoy me tbh. He is a guy after all. When there's a male like that especially if he's the lead I would definitely drop the Manga "blush, hesitant, need other to clear his feeling for him, other to push him to confess/touch the girl by flirting with her.." is the most boring unrealistic annoying concept for me. being Like that would put more pressure on the girl.

      = shou being that daring is a difficult thing u know, lefting everytime his pride and being that persistence demanding a lot of courage, especially with shou//his personality. he turn it to look an easy thing for him but it's actually isn't.
      U see how he act by overhead attitude with other girls/ppl ..I doubt he acted/would act like that with any girl other than yuki.

      Yep, true. It was and still strange to me too.

      Oh, is that so, i see.

    8. Hehe, ya...there are times when it is deliberate, at times, it was a coincidence like always meeting at the festival. =P If Yuki is single, we'll call it 'fate' ^^;

      Haha, not your type, huh. I think that behavior comes with being in love for the first time and was at first, clueless regarding such things. After all, this is a guy who will avoid girls especially fangirls like a plaque. ^^; And still does except for Yuki.

      True. Hm...was it mentioned before who confessed first? Was it his ex? Well, if it's someone you want, you have to 'fight for it'. I wonder if it is also the first time Shou worked hard to get something he want since most of the time, it is like a go with the flow thing.

      Delete
    9. True. haha, yep.

      Yep, but bcuz of the "personality" more.

      It wasn't, but I feel it wasn't shou, haha. I don't even get how he was with someone like her,it don't fit his personality to like/be with a girl like her.
      True. maybe, but he did fight and back despite how many times he got defeated in basketball.

      ^^

      Delete
    10. Hehe, I see.

      Something like, girl confessed, he says why not then girl got bored and he's okay when she left.

      Hehe, yes but I'm talking about before he met Yuki. It was the first time he worked hard on something = whether for a girl or basketball. ^^

      Delete
    11. haha, possible.
      But still don't think shou may date a girl just bcuz she confessed, I think like she had an admiration in his heart (like arisa) but not love. idk, hehe

      hehe, I see, Yep.

      Delete
    12. Is that so. I tend to think that Shou's first love is Yuki. So, unlike the ex-, he never put any effort and the girl somehow felt that she wasn't 'loved'.

      Delete
    13. hehe, I'm thinking the same too. Yep.

I couldn't wait any longer so I read the raw scans even though I can't understand any of it huhuhu and this summary helped me a lot in getting the picture quite right. I'm dying to know what really happened in detail in chapters 78 to 80 and in the next chapters. 😥😥😥 The events are just getting sooo interesting I can't stop thinking about them and about the next things that will happen. I love this manga a lot aaahhh.

  11. Here kat 😂 I chose this one, it has only 39 ccomment😂

    Haha, I don't know, but this is how Yuki thought? Maybe she thought there was something else before not only the hug. Of course it's somehow unrealistic from Miyuki so she can do her plot.

    Yes, but in Yuki's case, she saw signs, so. I think she do trust him, I mean, she did. When she first heard of the hug, she thought, "there must be a good reason for that" , then she waited for him to tell her but he didn't, then he said it doesn't concern you, then she waited his call/explanation but he didn't call her and then she saw Yuna's call.

    You confused me 😂 nah, the "my future is only Yuki Senpai", is about the cheating, haha, it means like "you're my only one, was and still and forever, I didn't cheat on you, I'm still the loyal Shou" , haha. Just this sentence was able to fill Yuki up, reassure her and make her happy because she does trust him, so if he just said something like that before, she could've trusted him and everything could have been ok.

    HM, you mean a misunderstanding from Yuna? If so, nah, I think Yuna is mature enough to not misunderstand, she can tell he truly loves Yuki, moreover never saw her in that way in the past let alone now. If you mean Yuki, I don't know, I don't really think she'll misunderstand 😂 if it happens to me, I'd think the opposite actually, haha, I mean, he's wishing her another guy to make her happy, so 😂

    Haha, I understand your point but no, Yuki and Shou both do know that they can make each other happy, otherwise why they're dating. Especially Shou, his confidence is what made this relationship and keeps it going kinda. So what I wanted to say is that this wondering is not in the extreme/bad level but normal, natural. And of course not always, haha.

    Yes, so toxic, sadly. I think it's more in Japanese Manga compared to kdrama, nah? Or because I was younger when I was watching kdrama, 4-5 years ago, I think I was in last year of high school - first year in college, so I didn't take it too seriously, compared to know, maybe, idk.

    Yes, I'm sure it's a fan service, kat. You know? What a coincidence. I just came across a Japanese account ok twitter and read some of her tweets, and she said that: "I wonder what it means to serve Hakamada fans. Recently, I feel that there are many stories like "answering requests on Twitter" , https://twitter.com/mofu5/status/1340217189568135168?s=19 , so it's really like I guessed, huh, wow.. that's horrible 💔
    Now I feel all weird kat.. like, what I'm liking? Like it's all unrealistic, stupid, a game.. ok, how sad to me.. :(💔

    There's the author of vampire Knight too, remember? We talked about it.

    The girl said other things I want to tell you and discuss with you but not now. Since I'm gonna write a lot about the make up 😂

    Yes, many girls like love triangle stories because they like the idea of a many/two guys liking the MC and so imagine/wishing they'd be in her place. This thinking from girls makes me so sad, especially if they're not teen but adults. So kat, it's a fan service from the beginning. I got to read some comments on an old post (English and Japanese fans) and many comments were saying "I hope that this new guy Hakamada will be a rival and like Yuki, I hope he'd get between Yuki and Shou" , how horrible... Really, wow 💔 but they don't like female rivals. How can someone wish something they don't like to be done to themselves for other people? Oh god. But why..? All this is because of such immature and toxic readers/people.. oh god.
    But there are readers who don't like love triangle, they should consider us too in stories, how sad and unfair.

    1. Kat we won! THEY TALKED!! I'm happy 🤩🤣 (I'm not really, haha) , the latest chapter released on the 5th march and Yuki and Shou talked longgg, yess, haha. And Yuki told Shou about the date with Hakamada, wow, haha. I'm very glad Yuki told him about the date with haka and explained very well to him. (Like it was what made me to be with you here and I understood your past more now, kinda thing). I'm very happy they talked things out very well. They talked a lot and very well in every detail, I really love this, whoa 😊 I love Miyuki made them talk and communicate well and didn't just ignored it. As we were afraid of. (Or just made them make up with hugs and kisses) This is very good and healthy. If she didn't let them talk things out, I was going to think that it'll be all unhealthy and wrong and useless but now that's very good.
      To be honest when I heard that chapter 126 is so sweet, has a lot of kisses and hugs, I wasn't that happy, I mean, I was happy but I wanted them to talk more. As much as I love their lovely dovey I wanted them to TALK (always not just this time) I'm very happy that they did talk, really, and in a very mature and healthy - detailed way, wow ❤️ Yuki asked Shou about his past with Yuna and that she wants to hear everything.. that's very good, whoa 😊 he did and also opened up to her and explained very well that moment when she told him "you're fine without me around", that's great ☺️👍 etc. I've never seen Shou that casual and fond of Yuki (opening up to her like that) and never seen Yuki that casual and fond and comfortable with Shou, never seen the two of them talking in this close, casual, mature and healthy way before, them being that comfortable with each other, that close and natural, like there's nothing between them.. really 😊 I'm very happy they talked and all ☺️☺️

      So she just started the make up in the last part of the previous chapter and continued it here, soooo glad, haha.

      It's from spoilers, it's not out in English yet. So, the chapter started/completed from them hugging/kissing in the coming of age ceremony, as Yuki noticed many people are looking at them she pulled off. It was morning and Shou has to go to practice but he told Yuki I want to spend this day/night together. Yuki said she should stay all day here. Then as he's going, she called him and put her key on his hand, wow, haha, and shyly told him I'LL try to finish quickly/don't join to the drinking party fully, so wait for me in my place", his reaction/look was priceless, haha ❤️ he hugged her. Yuki thought "we'll talk a lot when I come back (and he'll/want him to hug me). So glad she realized they lack talk/communication. Then Shou went to practice with great mood, haha. That Hakamada saw him.

    2. Then as he came to Yuki's place, he met usami 🤦🏼 I don't understand good what they said, Shou explained to her it was a misunderstanding and all, then she bowed completely to the floor and apologized to him in seza move 😒🤦🏼 then he told her something like "it's fine, I hurt Senpai, so it was good for someone to be near her", then she got all touched.
      Then she said "I'm sorry, I won't say anything anymore, I will shut up always" , but then she told him about Hakamada's date, omg, she's really too much, WTH?! I don't know if she said it to tell him that I'm the one who pushed Yuki but how can she said it herself? it's supposed to be Yuki. Plus Yuki was going to tell him herself anyway! I just can't with this bitc* !!

      Then at 8pm Yuki was able to come back, she excitingly entered her house, she's searching for Shou but he's nohere, then he came out from the shower, hehe, and hugged her while smiling, she felt all happy and thought he smells nice and feels warm. Then he asked her how your date with Shizuka went. She got stunned and thought 'oh, I was planning to tell him calmly myself but it got ruined for me' (told you she was going to tell him but that girl 🤦🏼 - I'm really glad she was planning to tell him) then she told him what I told you above. I didn't understand well, I should wait the English translation.

      Then they prepared two coffees and sat under one blanket, haha, she's in his lap, and they started talking long, hehe , aw 🙏🏻 these stuff I told you above and more, I didn't understan. He told her about Yuna and how he feels different with her and that Yuna was serious with him, etc, and Yuki realized that he changed. That's very good for her to realize something like that about him and that shows that she's confident now.
      QThen after talking a lot, Naruse kissed her and they're doing it then he asked her if she's nervous, she is, she hide her face with the yes - no pillow as she's embarrassed as if it's their first time 😂 then Shou said that he's nervous too, haha, that's unexpected and rare from him. Then I don't know what he told her, it must be something so sweet/emotional as she started crying/a touched crying face and he then smiled so cutely like a kid, haha. Then Yuki thought, it's doesn't matter if you fix it or no, because I love you more now, or like it changed from love to love, I don't understand this part.

      Next day in the store Yuna told Yuki she's moving, Yuki got happy for her and told her to call her if she needs something. Yuna thought she talked like Shou when he told her call me/us if you need help. Then Yuna saw Shou waiting for Yuki outside and excused herself that she needs to take out the trash, so cute, hehe. Then Shou and Yuki went to her place and he fixed the snow globe for her, wow, he really fixed it 🥰 but you see, at first the glass was a circle shaped and now it's a rectangle shaped, haha, love this 😂🥰

    3. 👍 Hehe, sorry for the trouble. I belated realized that I could have just given you the link for the new thread. 😅

      Ah, I see. But then, that isn't surprising...there are some unrealistic stuff going on before. 😅

      Ah, okay. I guess emotions and doubt went over the top so cannot think straight.

      Hm...so he knew that she suspected him on cheating her? And, he didn't even immediately clear things out? Ah...that's not good. But if it is a cheating guy then guy says that same stuff...things are still problematic. <- just saying what if it is a real cheating guy based on the evidence you mentioned that made Yuki suspect it and guy says that same stuff. Everything is okay? Haha, ah, the problems in a relationship 😅

      No. I mean a misunderstanding from Yuki if she heard that or from other people who don't know enough. It is something for gossip, right? Haha, for some reason, I kept on thinking that if I'm an outsider = do not know these people, and see them doing this and that stuff...I'll easily misunderstand what's really going on. 😅

      That's right...even before, I always get this confidence from Shou so it seems abnormal that he would suddenly feel inferior to Shizuka regarding Yuki. Like why? Just because of basketball?

      I cannot say. I'm kinda new to kdrama...rather I rediscovered it during covid lockdown. I just see the 'teams fighting' over some love triangles in kdrama and there are people saying how toxic it is. I don't know how bad compared to manga though. Actually, it is more on social media. If there's no social media, I wouldn't have known at all. 😅

      Wow... So, someone else noticed it too. The only series wherein I encountered that is the anime code geass. Every guesses of the netizens about the series are coming true that people wonder if the writers are reading their comments. The series was good at first then it became a train wreck. In Namai's case, I guess it is more on fan service to prolong the series. I think she is also working on a different series...not sure if it is a series though. I tend to be wary of authors doing two series at the same time because usually, the quality drops.

      Yup.

      Ah...it's fantasy, I guess. Perhaps, they like that kind of stories? I actually recently discovered that my sister likes jerk-type of rich and handsome guys in stories...somewhat bullying the girls but my sis doesn't like that in real life. I feel @_@ So, perhaps, as I mentioned, there are people who like that but it doesn't really reflect what they like in real life? I don't know.

      I just remembered we were talking about why female authors write that kind of stories. My sister is actually reading English web novels and I think one Chinese translated into English. I think some American novels are like that, too. I read some before when I was in high school.

      So, to answer your last statement, perhaps, the readers who like reading that kind of stuff are a lot more in number than us. And so, the author/s will write for them because they will bring in more money.

      Ah, based on the comments, are there many people happy over that Shizuka date compared to those who don't like it? If so, I guess they outnumber those who don't like it.

    4. Yeah, especially Yuki's reaction to Shizuka's advances and all.


      Yes, he mostly likely did. Because she clearly asked about the hug/incident and he was going to explain but he stopped, so he knew that she suspected him. I mean, anyone can guess so in that situation. You know what? I want to get mad at Shou, to think that he behaved bad, hurt and mistreated Yuki so I can be ok with what Yuki did 😂💔
      Haha, well, so Yuki knows that he's not a cheating guy type, haha.
      What do you mean by "the problems in a relationship" ?

      Oh, I understand you but I can't think of it as something that can be misunderstood, rather the opposite 😂 anyway I'm glad no one saw or heard him like always 😂

      I think because Shou has changed/grew up since he entered collage. I mean, he was kind of too confident/nonchalant in high school. His confidence dropped since he's in college. He has always been the ace in high school, even thought he was younger than some of his teammate. Now not only he's not that special in the team, but also he experienced the enormous progress of his rival. So I think that's the reason why he has some insecurities and inferiorities now.
      And also he changed/grew up since he fell in love with Yuki, and that shown in how much bad he felt now about not being a good boyfriend to Yuna.

      Glad there people who think/say it's toxic 😂
      Then yeah, I think I wasn't reading comments, etc, about kdrama before so I didn't know that, compared to Namaikizakari now where I read many things. Wish I didn't. Sigh..

      Whoa, I see.
      Oh, yes she is. Oh, so you think the quality would drop, huh? I see.
      She's taking many breaks 😑 for now she's taking a month and a half. Especially last year, she's fine this year. Though this Manga has only 4 chapters a year.
      But she's using Namaiki's popularity to promote this new Manga too much. She's drawing the main characters with Shou and Yuki in the illustrations of valentine's, etc. Last year she drew them in Shou's birthday illustration, oh god, that was too much 😒 and this year she drew them in the new year illustration together. 🤦🏼 Though in this valentine's, she drew only Shou × Yuki. Such a lovely drawing, hehe.
      Nd they look so similar to Yuki and Shou, especially Shou, so annoying, Agh.

      And you know? She's gonna do a new one in April, so more breaks maybe? Agh. And it's a bl. Wow, a bl?! I got shocked tbh. Did she get crazy? Tbh I personally don't like that.

      Haha, I see, omg.
      Idk, I don't understand this mentality, haha.

    5. It's sad because female authors write that way in every country. I find it kinda pitiful for women to think that way. So sad. "Two handsome guys fighting for a gir", really pitiful. Oh.

      Yes, I know that, of course they're more than us seeing how much love triangle stories there are. Sadly.

      Oh, I don't know, I think international fans are so mad about that. Of course there are biased fans who are happy with that. About Japanese, I don't know.

      You see? I've always thought that us international fans are more aware, I mean, a lot of fans call out Hakamada and hate on him a lot. While Japanese fans no. And you see that Japanese girl I told you about above, she tweeted something like that, she said "overseas fans seem more mature in dealing/calling out Hakamada compared to Japanese fans who treats him as good and pure guy. Ow. Yes, I kind of think that Japanese fans/girls lack a lot of awareness/self respect. Everything is romantic to them. As long as the other guy is handsome or the one they like. I mean, they're the one who requested all the stuff with Hakamada, so you can guess how much toxic and immature they are. Oh..💔 of course there international girls who are as worse or worse. Tbh, I got to know that shoujo/romance fans are so toxic. It's sad because they're mostly girls. I mean for example a lot were happy with Hakamada's forced kiss. Oh wow.

      And I've always hated how fans spoil Hakamada and always belittle and justify his wrong actions/advances on Yuki just because he blushes, compared to Shou. Sigh..

      Kay you didn't answer my comments about the make up completion, or you didn't read them yet? 😂 Because I wrote them after the first one. And you see, I didn't get the notification that you replied to me, till I accidentally entered it, Agh, that Gmail.

      Delete
    6. Ah, the latter part didn't appear when I replied.

      I'll get back to you since it is already late. Just finished a summary.

      Delete
    7. Thanks for that long summary ^-^

      That's good. They finally talked and cleared everything up.

      Most likely, Usami told her that she was the one who suggested it. Well, Usami has always been hyper and talkative so she definitely won't be thinking as to who should say it first. I would think that she wanted to immediately come clean about it. It is actually a good thing. Though, perhaps, story-wise, it kind of ruins the confession/talk.

      So, Yuna is already leaving the story? Or, just moving but still working in that place = still meeting with them.

      'Problems in relationship'. Like your friend told you that she saw your bf/husband hugging his ex. Is it cheating? Is it just a friendly hug? Should I investigate? If caught, would bf/husband say that I don't trust him? But if I don't, I would always wonder...and it might be too late later on. I guess I mean, problems in a romantic relationship because if you're single, you won't have such problems. 😅

      I get the lost of confidence with the basketball during college but does it mean just because of that, he'll also lose confidence being a good lover/bf to Yuki? I guess it is more on not deserving? From that, he forgot that the one Yuki loves is him and just because of not being good in basketball compared to the others, he doesn't deserve her. Is that how it is?

      Haha, I see. Ignorance is bliss, as they say.

      Yes, I think so. I agree. I browsed through it and find the couple quite similar with Shou and Yuki. Iiirc, it is about music, right? I kind of remember the guy seems like a rocker and girl is some sort of homeless girl. Haha, unless that is some other story.

      A new one? Ah, is that other one finished? Maybe the BL is a one shot? I actually thought that other story is a one shot like... to take a small break from the main series she is working on. Interesting bl...ah, in a different magazine or the same one, Hana to Yume? Lol, have you seen a picture of it? What if it is a Shou and Shizuka look alike?! 😮

      Haha, for me, as a girl, 'two handsome guys fighting for a girl' isn't really pitiful. 😂 What I find pitiful, as a girl, is when 'two girls are fighting for a guy especially a jerk just because he is handsome, cool and rich'. It is even harder to watch/read if the said two girls are best friends or sisters.

      True. And well, the money is in what the Japanese likes since they are the ones buying it. And as you mentioned about real people being defended even if they did bad things just because they are handsome/rich/cool...it isn't surprising anymore. And, usually, they forgive guys easier than girls, right?

      Haha...lol, so you know what, Shou just needs to blush more. 😅 Anyway, I guess Shizuka is the type of those girls.

      Delete
    8. Ah, she actually slipped, she wasn't planning to tell him. 😒

      Nah, she's not leaving the story, she still work with Yuki in the strore yeah.

      You know what I'm thinking? What if she moves close to Hakamada's place, then they'll meet there and fall for each other. 😂 I don't know why I'm wishing anymore 😂

      Haha, I see. True.

      Haha, I don't know, I think it's just some normal insecurities 😂

      Indeed, Haha. I long too much to the time where I was reading it all alone, it was so beautiful and heartwarming to me ☺️😅 I already knew that if I share it with people, they'd ruin it for me, because they did with something before, yet I still did 😅😂 I wasn't even reading your comments, I just read the summary and go 😂 and when I started reading them, they made me sad tbh 😂

      Yes, it is this one. I don't like music theme, and when the MCs are idols, actors, and especially a rocker ml, ow. Told you that before if you remember 😂 plus, he's years older than her, oh, dislike that.

      No, that other one is not finish yet. Yeah, I also think that the BL will be a one shot. Same. She did two one shots before when doing Namaiki.
      I don't know, I think she said it'll be in a different magazine, don't remember the name. No, there's no pics for it yet. She said she'll do it in spring.
      Yes, I'm sure they'll look like Shou and Shizuka 😒 idk, I don't like that. What about you?

      TBH, both are pitiful to me.

      Yes. You know, there is a Korean actor who got exposed lately of school bulling, a serious one. And even sexual harassments. And of course fans said it's not true, our pure angle wouldn't do that. Till he himself posted a hand written apology on his Instagram account. I was shocked tbh, they look all nice, wow. Then you know? many fans defended him, "it's past. He changed. He was just 18. We all made mistakes when we were teens (WTH? I didn't beat others in my teens. Plus these aren't mistakes, they're crimes! 🤦🏼). Be strong. We love you. We'll forgive you (you're not the victims to forgive him). And many hearts, etc. I got so annoyed and sad, and just got out of his account. But there are much more people who criticized and cancelled him. Gladly.
      I don't really know him, just by name and face, and from my sister's dramas 😂

      "Shou just needs to blush more" , Haha, omg, you made me laugh 😂
