"who made her kill herself (by pushing her off the roof)" Riiight, otherwise known as murder. This is one strange wording. Ok reading on I see it was a accident, but that doesn't change how strange this wording is.

 

Reading further on

 

How does "this is fine, since it's your fault" mean she knew he was like that? For that matter, it really does look like she meant to push her off with that scene.

 

I'd also want to know why she lied about it being a suicide.

I guess this is a little off topic specifically in terms of last chapter discussion, but has anyone thought of what would happen if they had sex? I figure that sex between the two on the last day is a strong possibility as a bucket list item before one of them dies off. Those two would literally feel each others' orgasms, potentially resulting in a twice as intense orgasm as a normal person....

I thought of that, I think most readers that aren't little kids have had that thought occur to them. But she doesn't even like it when she experiences his masturbation high, no way is she going to have sex with him unless she decides she really likes him, even if it might be either of their last day, at least that is my read on it.  That said, they have gotten closer mentally speaking, that they get close enough that she considers it in the realm of possibility, is possible, on the last day, or perhaps they become a couple after if they both survive this.

 

But unlikely, as no matter how much fluttering, aggressive come ones, naked misunderstandings and romantic moments a manga might have, sex almost never happens. Even married people are rarely suggested as having sex (they might make it so that it is apparent that they do ever so often, but any particular time is a complete mystery)  There's a comic where the MC has a wife from the start, and they don't even have sex then,(not even as a realm of possibility off screen kind of thing) granted they are young.  I read a comic where a guy wakes up next to a naked women, and it turned out they actually had sex. Which is definitely worth commenting on, considering that waking up to a naked women in your bed is actually pretty common place in mangas, especially compared to the rare event of actual sex.

Well, uh, taking Seo Kouji's manga KNIM, the two MC's have been going at it like rabbits for a while now, and it is presented in the chapters.

I'm looking forward to it.  So far, this is a really enjoyable read.  I liked the one-shot, and I'm glad he serialized it.

Same here! Glad I discovered this & I hope it comes back soon. I'm honestly surprised the ratings aren't higher. The art is great, translations are superb, & the story is quite compelling (unlike most).
