>Speech about not needing friends
This gets me chuckling, reminds me of how in the scripts for scrubs episodes later on they'd just put "Matt says something funny" for the Janitor's rants, I can see Yugami being much the same with his anti-friendship policies

Best wingman.

Next chapter when?

Oh yes he can
TL user will take a break so next month maybe?
just kidding

Thanks again TL-kun, and thanks to Traumerei Scans, too for both the English Version and the rips
Looking forward to the next dump
To any nip anons, is there any word from Sakura Jun about his / her next manga or nah?

They just finished a 7 year long serialization. I don't think they will come back any time soon. You can follow the author on Twitter.

Thank TL user. Now we only have 3 chapters left

Here is the Twitter of a hardcore Yugami fan, who is responsible for 99% Yugami fan arts on the internet
>twitter.com/yasumi84

So is Yugami gonna make Chihiro cry? Is he gonna have to chase after her after realizing he's a tool? Rather then ending on a big love confession will he get a friendship end?

What do you think?

You mean in the second panel

I'tll be a friendship end, but y'know, for this manga that's basically the love confession ending.

Wish more people would pick this up. I wouldn’t mind doing / having someone else do a weekly volume dump after the series officially ends just to have it pick up traction. I don’t think I’ll be able to handle the lack of taste people here will have because no one’ll make threads about a completed series
Damn

If you do then I'll be there. It will be a chance to reread the series too.

I just found something interesting. Apparently the time on the clock in last chapter was changed between the magazine and tankobun version. Might worth paying attention when we come to it.

i don't think dump threads really work for a series like this, you lose a lot of impact of the individual chapters if you aren't familiar with the context. the series does have some funny pages and panels that still work or are funnier still without context though, so i think it might be better off shilled in an opt or other similar thinly-veiled rec threads

I like to think that yugami is just as determined as Chihiro, all for the sake of getting to this moment as fast as possible.

Love this manga

Attached: pure bliss.png (504x498, 246K)

Actually that was basically the implication of the last chapter. That's why Yugami was adamant that he and Chihiro were not friends on the last few pages. Chihiro doesn't really get it though, but she did get a gut feeling that there was something different.

Thank you TL user for doing this.

Chihiro's gotten noticeably more attractive throughout the run in general and I don't think it's just the art style. I really do get the feeling that she grew an awkward girl into a pretty young woman.

She was always pretty after all.

She's canonically cute just utterly awkward when she started out.

Realistically speaking, what made this series so good and how should a mangaka reverse engineer the quality?

Characters have consistent personality through the whole series
Doesn't rely on overused tropes
Character development is done through the interactions of the cast progressively getting to know and/or understand each other better
Doesn't push itself harder than it needs to just to have that SHOCKING CHAPTER!!!1! hype going that might end up in a huge letdown

Overall it has been really enjoyable for me because it's a comfy read.

Author hasn't made new work yet either.

no real heavy drama

The characters feeling like real people instead of clichés and the storytelling being very down-to-earth.

So there's quite a few signs of yugami appreciating their friendship despite him trying to keep his perfect distance with her (and kadota for that matter), but can any of them be considered more than that? I already know how it ends, so I'm just curious here.
There's one of him grinning in front of the computer (for presumably quite some time) watching her fight back against the transfer to america (just like with his gf when he was young who had to move). He has no real justification for wanting this to happen either, since he has no idea about her dad's promise, so this isn't just him looking out for her wellbeing like with the letter or the initial push he gave her to make some friends.
There's also the earlobes blew everything away moment, where he's upset about something he did that might've ruined the perfect distance he has between her or everyone else he's close with. Despite how he acts around others there's nothing that hints towards him being socially autistic, so there's no way he didn't know what chihiro meant by touching the earlobes. My guess is he misjudged the situation, took the risk and lost.

As the other user said, fleshed out characters with meaningful development. Also, strong and cohesive narratives and themes/concepts that don't feel like an asspull and are foreshadowed nicely throughout the entire series. And unlike other similar stories, events and plot developments (mostly) happen with reason, and feel less like the writer just threw darts at a board to decide what happens next as if change for the sake of change makes the story more realistic.
Yugami's philosophy and worldview is well developed despite being controversial verging on unlikable, so the author likely knows the subject matter like the palm of his hand. Even the assholish characters have redeemable qualities and deep personalities that make them at least worthy of sympathy, and in the end none of the characters can really be considered unlikable.

It all boils down to superb writing, really. Looking at the manga as a whole, the only thing that was missing was some more action and expanding the backstories of the side characters, but everything we got is interesting and makes sense.

Interesting how momose's getting this much screentime with watanabe in the last two chapters. Seems like the fortune wasn't that far off after all

Yugami doesn't accidentally grope anyone for "hilarious" misunderstandings

But it's yeagashi and watanabe that became bros in that trio.

>Yugami and Chihiro are both great characters and have lives of their own. Both are effective protagonists rather than one being love interest of another.
>Interesting and colorful side cast with their own development, but does not take attention away from our leads
>Subtle humor and romance. There is always something hidden between the lines.
>Character and story developments happen naturally without the need for forced drama or bullshit contrivance.
>Even though almost nothing ever happens, there is a clear sense of continuity. This is slice of life at its finest.
>The manga has some hidden social commentary, but nothing too preachy or heavy. Yugami himself isn't a bitter loner who hates normalfags, but just a highly self-sufficient individual who likes to be alone
>author sticks to their vision to the very end and doesn't compromise the manga's integrity for cheap fan service.
These are the things Yugami does better than most of the manga in the genres.

Well, as yugami said, while he doesn't need any friends and he DEFINITELY doesn't want to depend on someone else, that doesn't mean he doesn't care about people in general. You see his actions are ultimately for the good of the people he meets, he's really caring with his family (although not affectionate), and really by trading favours back and forth with chihiro by this point he is really invested in her maturing into a well adjusted woman.

It's just happens that he really likes what chihiro is growing into, although he realize it himself because the thought didn't cross his mind. Just look at how long it took for him to decide if he wanted a girlfriend when Hayashyiama asked him.

>he DEFINITELY doesn't want to depend on someone else
I don't think that's necessarily a "want", but more of a need. He definitely doesn't mind having "friends" around, like what chapter 70 points out with the perfect distance thing. Keep in mind that yugami is implied to have experienced quite a bit of trauma when he was younger with regards to friendship.
Aside from the girlfriend shit I mentioned, there's also his cousin being an asshole towards him, and his old friendship with his rival. The last one is especially hard hitting, since yugami doesn't seem to know why his mentor and one of his best friends turned a cold shoulder to him all of a sudden. The fact that he's known to shut out any shitty memories, combined with his total amnesia about their old friendship and how he's mentioned to never look back at the past (or something like that) before, topped off with how he's shown to be pretty friendly towards others despite being quite autistic, it's very likely this is the catalyst or the tipping point that resulted in his current independence.
>he's really caring with his family (although not affectionate)
Yup, it's the same sort of affection he has for kadota or chihiro. One interesting point here is how in the flashbacks he's shown to be openly affectionate towards his sister, catering to her unreasonable demands. Something definitely happened in the meantime.
>trading favours back and forth
That's really just yugami's way of feigning friendship. By "paying back his favors" he's able to convince himself he doesn't *need* their friendship at all. I'm not suggesting that the manga should change him or his identity here; borrowing the sea anemone analogy, the clownfish isn't an essential part of the life of an anemone, but allows it to grow up to three times its former size with the clownfish around.
>the thought didn't cross his mind
I don't know, it's not like he's completely foreign to the concept of love, like how battle shounen protags can be.

>his old friendship with his rival. The last one is especially hard hitting, since yugami doesn't seem to know why his mentor and one of his best friends turned a cold shoulder to him all of a sudden
Are we reading the same manga? There is no signs that Yugami ever thought about Hayashiyama as a friend. If anything it was Hayashiyama who was shocked that someone had treated as a friend didn't remember him.

*someone he had treated as a friend

>There is no signs that Yugami ever thought about Hayashiyama as a friend
The fuck? The manga straight up shows him with hayashi and kadota together when they were younger multiple times. This was back when he wasn't so adamant about not needing friends to the point of rejecting them.
>someone he had treated as a friend didn't remember him
That's because they were. Kadota still thinks of the three of them as friends, as does hayashiyama. From what little flashbacks we can see the three of them seem pretty happy hanging out with each other. There's no reason why you can't treat someone as a friend and forget about them completely later on. Even if it's a little weird. Wonder if the manga will address this in more detail than just "he's just that kind of person"
