As a Rokurokubi, her quirk of stretching her neck is normal for her and her surroundings, but it's not always her choice to stretch it and although she has feelings for Itsuki, she can't tell him what she feels. Ultimately, she has to go through misunderstandings and shame. Itsuki, meanwhile, manages to make any awkward situations dissolve... or maybe not!? |

What i shame.. i actually expected this story to last around 90-100 chapters before ending..
@BCS
Or the author intended to make him go back at some point and that's why we had all theie implied social pressure through out most of this? Also we don't really know much about the mother yes, so she could have let him do what he wants until life gets serious. Which is now as he wont be a first year forever. Or for any other reason.
But he literally isn't. He doesn't think anything like that. Never. Even in this chapter he confirmed that what he said was out of stress and not because he actually sees Youkai as something different.
She tells him what he'll do about his career and how he thinks he'll be able to get cash etc. etc. Reread chapter 20.
You just said again that he would dislike Youkai, which he doesn't. Him going back, doesn't equal him believing that Youkai are all shit. There are other, clear reasons here that force him to go.
Seeing how you got all you're points messed up above, no.
I'm not trying to whiteknight this manga. I'm only telling you what you seem to get wrong. Doesn't make the manga suddenly better/worse.
The term isn't random, her sudden will to do it is. Why not year eariler? Why not year later? My point still stands. You know how this looks like? Like the series is getting an axe so some drama must be quickly created for a wrap-up.
Irrelevant to the point; which is how easily Itsuki is convinced that Youkai are "bad for him". Let me remind you: it takes one ten-minute conversation.
This is... literally what I said myself. Except this argument never actually happens in the manga. So your point is moot.
??? No one said he is like his mother. The fact that he isn't but still goes along with what she's doing is the whole reason why this makes no sense.
Oh the irony. You're essentially arguing from the position of "Well the author never did/said x, y or z but I guess we can assume x, y and z" so I think it's you who should re-read it and concentrate on what is actually being said.
You can make all fan-excuses it the world but it will not excuse the author from crappy storytelling/writing.
Nooo.... it's too soon for this to end...
My gripes aside, I still enjoyed that little moment between Kanoi and Itsuki. I just hope the ending brings some modicum of satisfaction...
His mother is a bitch
he boutta get dat necc
This is why we can't have nice things.
This page has a weird effect on me. I look at the face and it breaks my heart, but then I see her neck and I laugh, but then I see the face again etc.
I'm actually oscillating at a stable 2 hertz.
This is ending? Nooooooo.....
It wouldn't surprise me at all if this particular variable was to blame. Editors have a bit of a habit of it.
Hope it will wrap up neatly and that they will somehow get together. A single chapter left is much too little.
Oof. That was...a bit rough.
I certainly hope he writes/draws more stuff. I like the style, both writing and art.
you effing itstupidki
go away you loser
Seeing how it was running in BSM and did get enough attention (Regular Color pages, Interviews etc.), that shouldn't be the case. Yet there are a lot of things the author definitely can't show in the final chapter. For example anything related to the Kubikajiri, Yotchy's past which was hinted, what exactly happened to Kanoi's Mother and the society as a whole.
The author said on their twitter that a sequel is unlikely (which doesn't exclude a spin-off/reboot in another magazine), but also said they wanted to draw more and they regret how it turned out. At this point it seems (to me) like there was another issue that made them end this. An example would be the editor's and artist's visions being too different or them getting fed up with this story already (which I doubt) and the like.
Was this axed?
Unfortunate, but I am not expecting the ending to live up to the rest of the series.
itsuki needs to man up
nay
just a breather from the sticks'n'stones u usually see...
Have to agree. We haven't seen anything that distinguishes between the human and monsters way of living. Same apartments, same schools, same jobs, same stores.
Stories heating up like the comments section. shit.
