Man, I'd just love it if someone were to continue scanlating Yawara :,(
I can't believe in my own eyes after reading this. I mean, this is from Urasawa Naoki, the guy who draw Monster and Billy Bat right? So why is it that only in this manga, Yawara and Jigoro are the only two characters who are distinguishable enough from the rest of his characters in other mangas?
thank you for the update!
whooo!! finally
Thanks so much for picking this back up
it's been so looooong thank you
Matsuda isn't going to get away with that. It was an honest crushy moment. He's not a malicious liar. But lying gets you nowhere in manga. And he's the only honest and decent guy in this manga (well, Jodie and Yawara's parents are great too).
No, he's scum for being so senile. One-tracked minded people piss me off the most.
For me, it's Yawara herself that makes me cringe.
Oh you have the skills to win a gold medal at the olympics? Better forget about judo and do something PROPER for a lady, like find yourself a nice (scumbag of course, but the looks though) boyfriend and live in mediocrity for the rest of your life.
How can you dislike Matsuda?
Yes.
am i the only one who think the gramps is a bit of a scumbag for the things he's done to yawara?

nintendo?!
That is evil!
Have you tried Happy! ? By the same author.
Ugh, I really hate this manga; everyone (apart from Yawara of course) is just an utter piece of scum.
That's because Miyuki had already hit rock bottom by the time the story took off. There's also the fact that Urasawa-sensei seems to have a very cynical view of human nature.
But, Yawara is still so much better off than Miyuki from Happy!
Holy crap, an update
Bless you guys.
It really gets on my nerves how egoistic most of the characters are, especially the grandfather. On my read through I was hoping that something positive will happen to Yawara but she's just pushed around and too kind to change that.
Finally, an update!
"like an insult"? not really.
Anyhow, something else that was on my mind. The panty shots! In the rare instances that they do happen, the scene is so profound that it just blends in. It's like the panty shot wasn't the main point, but in all honestly just one of the consequences or heppenings of the moment. I know its not really ecchi, but I really wish ecchi authors would take this as a cue for their own works.
