A great new chapter, 105 seems a little late to start a discussion thread but what the hell, I really like this manga and no one has done it yet. I really love the basketball action that's been going on the last few chapters, I really wish our main characters would get back to playing though.

This is a great shounen sports story with a lot of very good characters with lots of depth and a complex story line as well. Hopefully people can discuss it here.

This manga is really good, and it's a plus that romance isn't its main point, although this much already made some people quit reading. Though I really hoped that Maru High's past to be revealed and things--and that capped black haired shorty really piqued my interest.

honestly at first I shipped Madoka with Sora but then Madoka just went and liking Momoharu??? idkm about this chick she's weird, so now NaoxSora.

It's harder than it looks, don't you think?

I think the author has dangled the romantic vibes out there enough times now that a lot of people are expecting something to happen between at least some of our main characters..............I certainly do. Though I'll have to admit to having read 300+ chapters of Eyeshield 21 expecting the same and never even got to see anybody hold hands :D

Not that I think I'm any kind of expert, but most of the sports manga/manhwa I've read didn't end up with any "active" romance in them. They're mostly concerned with the sports/drama aspects of the character's live. though there are exceptions, Baby Steps comes to mind (though it took 100+ chps) along with Green Boy.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see as far as the romance goes, though yeah, to me it's a really great story without it so far.

Thanks for the link, I didn't realize that it was that long-running and successful.........36 volumes published and still ongoing, wow. It really is  a great story, I'm looking forward to reading the next few hundred chapters or so.  :D

I'm... quite surprised.

 

It is really popular in Japan, isn't it? I thought it's short-lived. (Not like I wish it would, but...)

 

It really surprises me.

A great new chapter is out on the S2Scans site  http://s2scanlations.com/online/read/ahiru_no_sora/en/14/110/

 

It's starting to have a much more upbeat feel to things now...........I'm really glad too, it was starting to get kind of depressing with the team all separated and bumming out by themselves and stuff.
