Domestic na Kanojo 242 spoiler

>It's Shu who takes HinaxNatsuo photo confirmed

True. Hina wasn't meant to win from the beginning because of age gap and status gap. They were teacher and student, and now big sister and little brother. Rui can connect with him more because at leadt they're the same age and status.
Also Rui has the "first girl wins" privilege at her side.

>Hina still in love with him
>Rui still don't know about her feelings toward natsuo
>Hina is sick about the situation"fainted"
>Shu wants to tells some secrets

Natsuo will do the first step>> Hina victory >Ruifags btfo

I have never seen so many delusions in a single post, but this post takes the cake.

>Hina wasn't meant to win from the beginning because of age gap and status gap

I can't tell if you really believe that nonsense or if you're just mindlessly shitposting.

>>It's Shu who takes HinaxNatsuo photo confirmed
what photo?

you dont want to use the "first girl" trope because Hina has WAY more tropes.

Also, first girl has 3 ways of being made.

First girl can be "first girl introduced to the MC that he has no prior association or little memory of" with an example being Chitoge in Nisekoi, Touka in tokyo ghoul. This does not work for Rui because by the time the story starts (first page) he and Rui are already antiquated so in this regard, the 'first girl' trope does not work

the second is the "first girl MC falls in love with" which would be Hina in this case. a winning example includes Juliet from Kishuku Gakkou no Juliet and Asuna from SAO while a losing one includes

3rd is "First girl introduced in the story" which DOES mean Rui, but these characters don't always win such as Sakura from Naruto, Leon from Akame ga kill, Onodea from Nisekoi, Ichigo from darling in the franxx (i think) etc.

Also, "first Girl" has never been a factor in Sasugas works. In Good ending, the MC knew both love interests equally and the loser was the first one presented.
baisically, i wouldn't use "first girl" tropes to justify a winner here.

Take your pills, Ruifag.

>losing one includes
technically Utsumi from good ending, with technically because it wasn't love but a crush. you can count it if you want, but know that when it comes to Tropes, Korukawa (Good ending winner) shares plenty with Hina

Of course, there was a point to the breakup - to punish him and make him fall in line. She's done it before.
I really hope Sasuga isn't trying to redeem Shuu.
I think this arc Tougen Sensei may die but after he teaches Nat a lesson on quitting too soon. I hope he sees that he quit on the relationship with Nina too soon. This means we will see more Hana chan. I hope she isn't some late minute romantic interest.

Kek Hinafags seething

>The kiss photo between Natsuo and Hina
>Someone takes this photo during the fireworks
>this anonyme person gives the picture to the director of school
>That's why Hina gets fired

I wanna punch Rui in the face

>spoilers come out
>ruifags laugh at hinafags
>chapter comes out
>ruifags keep silent as tombs
>repeat the following week

Dosnt make much sense. Shuu had no reason to know about the Okinawa trip, and how would he know which room Hina and Natsuo are in?
As for the photo, there was a bit showing the camera people going through the photos but someone overlooked the one with Natsuo and Hina. It was a second look through by a school member that caught Hina and Natsuo.
Dont get me wrong, even high def camera cant get a good enough picture through a window at THAT distance, but there's too many factors for Shuu to be the one who did it, and Rui was with Alex and co so it couldnt be her.

just chalk it up to bad luck

about what?
the spoiler of Hina confessing and Natsuo rejecting her are confirmed fake.

it really has been like that. Even the spoilers make things seem worse for Hina than they end up being, and last week was a massive 'winning trope' chapter of Natsuo and Hina and Ruifags still think it was a loser flag.

Thing is, there is going to be a losing chapter for Hina at some point. Not a total loss as in "she lost the bowl" but something along the lines that make make it seem unlikely they'll get together, and Rui fags will take it as a sign for victory, even when the next or following chapters will undermine it to put Hina on a clearer victory path again.

the OP also showed Natsuo drowning and someone reaching into the water and attempting to pull him up.
Is that supposed to forshadow Hina bringing his dream of writing and happiness back?

I'm starting to get tired of Sasuga releasing new chapters with trying to make both girl looks like they have equal chance desu.
Preferred the manga to be simple like with KNIM and GE where the second breakup are obviously permanent and shift the focus back to the first.
Meh, I'm just ranting because I want more Hina chapters.

>My prediction, rui and natsuo will come back together and realized both have moved on and love a another person at the end (chef and hina)
not a bad one.

mine is that Hina wont confess until she talks with Rui, so they both talk and agree to hold nothing back. and we get chapters of both Hina and Rui with Natsuo.

As time goes on it will probobly get to the point that Natsuo or Rui will realize that they are better as family and that Natsuo is more happier with Hina. So Rui shows how much she's grown and moves on and this time agrees not to hate Natsuo for being with Hina.

same here.
Its probobly because most followers on her twitter are Ruifags and wants to give Rui a proper defeat while making Hina win Natsuo in a way that gets as much approval as possible. she cant get everyone but i'm betting she'd still rather have more "I wanted Rui to win but i accept Hina winning" than "i want Rui to win fuck you for pairing her up with chef"

if her intent is for Hina to lose though, she's doing an extremely bad job of it, and will make most of the story, the breakup of Rui and all the tropes pointless.

WHEN THE FUCK DOES THIS SHIT END ALREADY?
I swear, I stopped reading last year and to this day it's still the same bullshit indecisive love triangle.

>Domestic na Kanojo 242
>Hina finally realizes that she still loves Natsuo.
>Meanwhile, Rui reaffirms her feelings that she still loves Natsuo after rejecting Kajita.
>As Natsuo’s older sister, Hina goes to greet Togen sensei, and he’s getting sick but he hides it.
>Later, Natsuo gets called by the master and once he goes to the bar, he meets Shuu there and gets told that he needs to talk to Natsuo.
>(Shuu was the one who asked the Master to call Natsuo for him as he needed to talk to him)

And this was what I was afraid of. Shuu coming back. Not looking great.

>no confession for Hina
>she still keeps her feelings
It's good sign for Hina end because now after his meeting with Shu.
Natsuo will be one to go after her

Is there where Kei truly becomes a cunt and Shuu wants permission to go after Hina again and Natsuo gives his permission? Fuck I can see that happening ngl.

Shu will push Natsuo to realize all the shit Hina did for his ass
He knows Hina secret about the school.
Maybe he will open his eyes about who is always by his side when he needs it

Doubt Shuu wants to persue Hina at this point. He himself told Hina to be honest with her feelings for Natsuo. Feels like he will confess that he lied back then.

Shuu coming back only reinforces a hina end. Like we didn't have a gazillion hints all around already.

Cope harder Hinafag

Your discords the opposite way, nigger.

I'm sure Ruifags will celebrate.
But seriously, after telling Hina that she won't be happy if she isn't honest with herself about Natsuo it will be retarded writing to suddenly have Shuu chase after her now.

Nice, just a matter of time before Hina meets Tsutaya now.

>cope
You should start reading the manga instead of feeding on misguided headcanon.

not self-inserting into natsuo for a moment:

WHY THE FUCK did everybody forget and forgive what rui did to natsuo? it‘s like she never broke up with him while he was at his lowest

kei you fucking hack

Why is she still dragging this shit? We all know Hina will win cause of her suffering, and because Kei started this shit in order to write about the taboo relationship between a teacher/student.

this will probobly be the start of Natsuo realizing that Hina always loved him.
Shuu was the one who said Hina had moved on from Natsuo, and Rui took the opportunity to ask Natsuo if he would date someone else if Hina was. Along with Ruis advances and Shuus lie, Hina lied and that caused Natsuo to move on when he realized (falsely) that no matter what he accomplished or how long he waited, Hina had no intention of getting back together, which is why he moved on.

I'm thinking that This will be Shuu admitting he lied. its been a while since they last met but i doubt he has an intention of going after Hina. If he does he will probobly be asking Natsuo for permission, but this would just mirror Alexs asking for permission of Rui, in that Natsuo has no right to say no. And after last chapter, whats the point now that Hina isn't lying to herself? she'd just reject Shuu.
So if Shuu isn't admitting to the lie, it will probobly be to tell Natsuo to set Hina free by properly rejecting her. but he has no right to Hina after lying to Natsuo and causing his shift in feelings.

If shuu does admit to the lie, then i think there will be a slow domino effect in the truth being revealed along with other events like the authors declining health.
i rekon in coming chapters, when Rui comes back, in order to try and move on from her guilt and jealousy, she will admit to Natsuo that she knew Hina lied but kept it from him because it was what Hina wanted, making Natsuo more aware of Hinas sacrifice and love and undermining Rui's attempts to get back together. But all that is about the past and Natsuo has no way of knowing if Hina loves him now.

which is when the rings will most likely hit Natsuo the hardest and make him realize that Hina never stopped loving him and re ignites his feelings.

We didnt. Ruifags have. they make all kinds of excuses. examples:

>She broke up with him to inspire him to write again through suffering
>She broke up to set him free from being burdened by long distance relationships.
>She broke up so they can focus on themselves and make themselves better people
>She broke up so Natsuo is not burdened from the long distance and needing to tell Rui everything, giving Natsuo the time to focus on himself and make himself better
>She broke up to give them time to sort out their trust issues by rejecting the ones crushing on them
>She broke up because Long distance was too hard on Natsuo and she set him free from its burden, still loving him and hoping they can get back together but without forcing him to choose to do so if she hurt him too much.

If any of these where actual legit reasons for breaking up with Natsuo, i'd like Rui more and wouldnt be upset at the thought of her winning.
But the story is never discreet in its reasoning and directions so if it never made these reasons clear as day, it cant be any of them. sure, sasuga Could make one of them a reason later on, but all the reasons for the breakup are on chapter 216, and none of these are used.

as for Ruifags, they think Rui was cute in the relationship and thats all that matters and why they want her back with Natsuo.

Because ruifags are horny af and still think their relationship can sustain by only being sex buddies.

My question is; what is Shuu going to say? Is he finally going to go after Hina again and asks Natuos permission and because Natsuo doesnt really feel anything for her at the moment he gives Shuu his blessing to do so? Fuck that would suck.

If anything, I think if it goes that way, it would make natsuo realize he still feels something for hina

>natsuo and hina would still be together if they didnt kissed and get their picture taken at the window during the school trip

>As Natsuo’s older sister, Hina goes to greet Togen sensei, and he’s getting sick but he hides it
Hina will help him to write again

>what is Shuu going to say
About Hina sacrifices

He won't. He will only confess about him lying.

What are the chances here that Hina gets back with Shuu to try and forget Natsuo once and for all. Shuu was her first love after all so maybe she might think it'll work. A Hina end is obviously coming but I can unfortunately see Kei doing this for more shitty drama.

Again, just my threadly reminder that neither side should cry victory before the end.

>Hina wasn't meant to win from the beginning because of age gap and status gap.

Quite the opposite, ruitard-kun.

Attached: hinamaingirl.jpg (4095x2048, 1.97M)

0% chance. Hina has rejected Shuu like 3 times already.

>Its probobly because most followers on her twitter
Not really. Hinafags have overtaken the retards for a couple of months now.

Rui winning would be the ultimate asspull plot twist which is what Ruifags are banking on.

Rui a shit
Hina a best

The last time they talked there are no romantic atmosphere between them. He even told her to be honest with her feelings regarding Natsuo. I’d say he’s gonna be helping Natsuo instead of trying to steal her away.

This. Shuu is a Hinafag now.

I almost think it's falseflaggers posting shit which will get screen capped and used against Ruifags when the manga ends.

Sisters sandwhich when?

Fellow Ruifags, I can see the end already.
Prepare for Hinafag tears.

Natsuo’s monologue during Misaki arc said that he could’ve ended up like Misaki after breaking up with Rui.
A few chapter later Rui be like we agreed to spend some time apart.
Either Sasuga’s treating the breakup as a joke now or we can expect the what the hell, hero? trope waiting for Rui.

Prepare your rui end fanfiction instead

Based and Nee-pilled

Thanks for the screencap.

I love that Rui still hasn't gotten over Natsuo. It will just make her BTFO much sweeter. She will have to settle for the second prize and Ruitards will get to seethe.

This
Ruitards are laughable

Hina is a goddess

Fuck off, Chef.

Domestic na kanojo 900: natsuo reveals that he had a love note with the power of trigering retarded romance drama all along, and was using it to string along the two sisters until their mind broke.

I know you anons are saying Shuu wont pull anything and hes gonna push Hina and Nat together or some shit but that's way too easy an outcome for this shit and I fully expect him to try to get back with Hina, for the sake of drama. Tbh I can see Kei actually making Shuu and Hina together and Nat and Rui together regardless if it makes sense. I'm fully expecting it unfortunately.

Rui a best at being a shit

>I fully expect him to try to get back with Hina
That plotline has been done and dusted. Even he himself had encouraged Hina to go after Natsuo when she was seeing the stalker dude. At least pretend to have read the manga.

Hina has rejected him too many times and that boat has long sailed into the abyss.

If Sasuga simply let Rui move on with Chef, then when does Rui ever get to face the consequences for her actions? She needs to get rejected like the trash she is.

Don't be so mean to Rui, she's not that bad either.

She is the main source of conflict in the story though because of her history of selfish choices.

I'm a Hinafag myself but c'mon I don't you can disagree that Hina is the main source of all the tension and drama (whether by circumstances or luck) instead of Rui.

This is possible. I don't want it to be but it is. Around now she needs to bring in a romantic interest for Hina as a backup. We haven't seen Shuu since before Tanabe arc. Does he know what happened - that Hina didn't marry, Tanabe turned out to be a stalker and that Natsuo got stabbed for Hina? I thought it strange that we heard nothing, that he didn't go to comfort Hina. Maybe he was away.
He could very well seize the opportunity to go after her again. This could be Sasuga's way of making Hina 'happy' if Natsuo chooses Rui. No one can deny that Sasuga has been trying to redeem Shuu but in my book he is still a deceitful, arrogant, selfish pig who really shouldn't be allowed anywhere near Hina. The mere fact he was able to divorce his wife right after Hina broke up with him and him realising that Natsuo was his competition meant that he was lying all along that he couldn't divorce the wife - he just didn't have the will to do it.

>meant that he was lying all along that he couldn't divorce the wife - he just didn't have the will to do it.
Plus he was using his wife. Wasn't she the daughter of the university dean or something? Her father was some big shot school-wise from what I remember and may of had money as well.

Shuu is approaching Natsuo not Hina. The only logical reason would be to apologise to him for lying to him. If he was going after Hina there really is no need to tell Natsuo about it cause even Shuu knows they they have broken yup t since ages. This is pretty much Shuu redeeming himself but coming clean to Natsuo.

I meant we haven't seen Shuu since right before things started to get really crazy during the Tanabe arc.

Sasuga has spent entire chapters showing how Rui was so much happier with Chef. The only reason Chef's on the backburner now is because Sasuga has to play out the final showdown between the sisters. Sasuga has never shown Hina to ever be happy with Shuu. Even when they were dating, Hina was miserable. There is no way Sasuga would just pull such a contrived ending where Hina ends up with Shuu, no matter how much of a hack you might claim her to be.

Hina is not the source of tension. Shit happens to her beyond her control. Rui on the other hand is actively responsible for causing shit.

She's actually not that bad when she' sharing scenes with kajita but that's mostly because those are the ones where she acts like she's learned from her experiences.

>I can see Kei actually making Shuu and Hina together and Nat and Rui together regardless if it makes sense
You need to get that brain tumor of yours checked asap.

Understand that I hope that you are right - that this means nothing and this will be the last time we ever see Shuu but this mangaka also made Miyabi approach Hina right before she confessed to Natsuo. Nat and Hina had broken up a long time ago as well and there was no need to tell Hina. What it did do was start the ball rolling in her realising that Natsuo could be taken by someone other than Rui and maybe he was over Rui. This caused her to complain to Master who had that conversation with her with the double entendre,

Shuu could ask the same question that Miyabi did, basically signaling his intention to go after Hina again since Natsuo has no intention of doing so. This could set off a similar chain of events for Natsuo. This is just speculation and I want you to be right but I have to cater for the worst.

Rui a shit

Even if Shuu asked Natsuo for permission, the only plot purpose it would serve would be to push Natsuo towards Hina. Do you really foresee a plotline where Shuu just asks permission from Natsuo and he gives it and then never thinks about it again? If Shuu was indeed Hina's endgame, he would've approached Hina in every scenario. Approaching Natsuo completely kills that thread.

based

Also Miyabi only asked Hina for permission because she knew that she still held feelings for Natsuo. If Shuu does the same as Miyabi, the meta implies the same for Natsuo.

I would never claim that Sasuga Kei is a hack. I wouldn't be reading her work almost every week if I thought so. I 100% agree with you about Shuu - he was horrible in that relationship with Hina - he lied to her to the point that the steadfast Hina fell out of love with him. He uses lies to get his way - even lying to and demoralizing a teenage boy that it affected Natsuo's dreams and ambitions, making him open up to accepting the substitute that was flaunting herself in front of him. The affects of Shuu's lie and conversation still, I believe, affect Natsuo to this day.
I gave Shuu credit for checking on Hina while on the island, something that loverboy failed to do, even if secretly just to make sure she was alright. However, with Shuu like Rui, he always puts himself first and all actions have a self centered motive. He cannot make Hina happy.

I knew that Shuu would return, either to help or to hurt. Sasuga could very well use him to make Hina's fans riled up the way she did with Kajita and Rui's fans. Of course, Kajita only helped Rui and was a great guy unlike Shuu who broke Hina's heart over and over and was a disrespectful slime-ball.

Whatever is the case I doubt he would conveniently come to tell him he lied earlier, if anything this coincides with the cruse, so maybe he saw/heard about them going together and wants to confirm if they got back together. And when Natsuo declines he can announce he wants to get together with her, not asking permission, just warn him.

But the thing is the last time we saw Shuu, he was encouraging Hina to not give up on Natsuo. I doubt he is going to do a sudden 180 without any on screen explanation or events. It would just be contrived writing.

Rui a turd

I am not talking about endgame here. I don't think I said it was about permission, I think it could be about just stating his intention, figuring out where Natsuo stands and basically telling him that if Natsuo doesn't want Hina that Nat should stay of of his way.
I don't mind if Natsuo goes up against Shuu again but this time, because he has grown into a capable man, he can win.
I want you to be right and that Shuu helps and leaves IMMEDIATELY but the conflict it would cause if he did try to pursue Hina would be hard for any writer to resist.

Rui sucks

It would still not make any sense because the last time we saw Shuu he had realised that Hina could only be happy with Natsuo and had encouraged to pursue him.

well yeah, in one of the .5 chapters she in fact did.

Chef soon

What I'm curious about is what's the point in Togen getting ill? Sasuga introducing an arc for Natsuo?

He and Hina are going to help Natsuo get his writing back. He will probably also die.

HINA A BEST
RUI A SHIT

>He and Hina are going to help Natsuo get his writing back.
Doesnt that just reaffirm that Hina is gonna win? Her helping Natsuo get his writing back works incredibly in her favour.

Yeah no shit.

On the mountain, Togen Sensei told Natsuo that he needed to learn about when to quit on something when Natsuo told him that Togen had never experienced a writer's block. I have been interested in what he meant ever since.he said so.
I'm really happy that Hina will be introduced to Natsuo's mentor - that has to mean something good. Did it mean that Natsuo quit on Hina too soon?

>Yeah no shit.
Eh I'll believe it when I see it. Sasugas a hack so even if anything seems like the way it should go, it probably wont. Like with Shuu, I hope hes gonna tell Natsuo that he lied or something similar, but the logical part of me thinks that hes gonna try to get Hina back. As let's be honest what shes doing right now isn't healthy because she cant Express it and it's making her sad as fuck and I think Shuu will see that and want her to move on, unlike last time where he said she couldnt be happy without Natsuo. Maybe this time he thinks she needs to move on to be happy.

Maybe, well I personally have to look at all sides. It's been over a year and nothing has happened.If Shuu could make up for what he did to Natsuo, it would be nice.
There's lots of stuff that doesn't make sense or maybe I don't understand. When Hina started her sister act, it was a conscious act not to cause more trouble for the family because Master warned her that she could be hated. She channeled her romantic love into just being there for him as a sister. Just before the book is published, she was praying at the shrine and started asking for her and Natsuo to get back together. She stopped herself, remembering her promise. Did Hina really delude herself? On the other hand, it means that she didn't consciously lie to Miyabi or Master about only acting as a sister.

The other part of this is that it's all for nothing if Natsuo isn't in love with and doesn't want to go back to being Hina's lover. She may only be happy that way but Nat has to want that too.

The worst part of all of this is why would Rui get a second chance and I feel she will when Hina did not.

Rui will win

The Kajitabowl.

No, the Natsuobowl

Tachibowlana

Tachibana would be used for both Hina and Rui just like Cleganebowl for GoT.

i think so too. In fact, i think Hina meeting both the author and editor just reinforces that Shes the wife that the editor is asking Natsuo to write about.

Either he's going to admit he lied about Hina "moving on" or something unrelated. Its unlikely he's going to go after Hina since last time he knew her feelings about Natsuo, and whats the point after 241 when Hina is no longer lying about being in love with Natsuo?

Even if he did ask for permission and Natsuo says yes, its most likely going to be in the same breath of Alex asking permission to date Rui. Natsuo has no say.
Even so, Natsuo was not happy at the thought of Hina having an arranged marriage and Hina being with Another man when she dated stalker, and that was before he realized something was wrong. so if he did give permission, its likely he's going to be shown being uncomfortable with it.

Personally, i thought that Misaki and Shuu could make a better couple since she was introduced. I was right about her being a druggy, Marie saving her and Natsuo, and Misaki working at the cafe. i could be right about this.

He can do both. He's just not in a position to tell if Hina still loves him or not since too much time has passed for him to know.

She wont unless Natsuo rejects her. Just like Rui and Kajiba, she wont date another man if she still has feelings for Natsuo

it goes both ways. depending on who the focus of the chapter is.

>Rui winning would be the ultimate asspull plot twist
It really would be. Thinking back, she hasn't done much to develop herself as a person to be a better fit for Natsuo.
If the breakup really was for then she should of shown some progress, but the only progress we see is her happiness with Kajita. if there was more to show her developing would make her a better girlfriend then there'd be less issues, but we havnt seen anything to support her being a better girlfriend. maybe in the future but right now, it would be a total asspull.

And looking back on the rejections of Kajita and Miyabi, Rui rejected Kajita because she still has feelings for Natsuo, while 'admitting she and Kajita would be happy and make a good couple. thats like an round about admission that she likes him more than a friend, while also rejecting him on the grounds that she still has feelings for someone else and hasn't moved on 'yet', with 'yet' being the keyword.

For Miyabi, Natsuo rejected her on the grounds that he can only like her as a friend. there was no sign of Rui being a factor in his decision or any lingering feelings. the only reason he had doubts was because of how 'into character he got. If Rui was a factor for rejecting Miyabi, like Natsuo was for Kajita, then Natsuo being together with Rui wouldnt be so far fetched, but right now, nothing really supports it other than a brife phone call where he talks to her more like a sibling than love interest.

I think you mean NatsuoxHina-fag.

but also, so is the mother it seems.

>Natsuo’s monologue during Misaki arc said that he could’ve ended up like Misaki after breaking up with Rui.
dont forget he also had writers block. the breakup just left him with no support since Hina couldnt help him without admitting her feelings. thats probobly why shes talking to the author now.

>A few chapter later Rui be like we agreed to spend some time apart.
i forgot about that. I just re read 216, there is nothing there about "some time". Rui is just making stuff or is so bad at breakups she forgot to tell Natsuo that its supposed to be temporary.

>Either Sasuga’s treating the breakup as a joke now or we can expect the what the hell, hero? trope waiting for Rui.
i Think only Rui is being made to treat the breakup as a joke. her actions show she has little consideration for the pain Natsuo went through, but then again, its not like she knows. Still she has no shame in getting back together after dumping him when he was already depressed so thats an issue.
Just goes to so how immature Ruis handling of issues are. that even if she broke up so they could improve themselves, she missed the point of what a break up means and the sadness it causes.

As for the hero trope, it looks like Hina is working on it, saving Natsuo from the drug gang, holding onto his writing dream and now talking to people to help him revitalize his writing passions again.

you never know. Now that Kajita confessed and Rui still has weeks before going back to Japan, she may arrive having her feelings changed but still spend time with Natsuo just to make sure and have no doubt that she's moved on.
i doubt Sasuga will BTFO of Rui but still make her and Natsuo admit the breakup was for the best and that they've moved on. she wont buttslam the Ruifags.

Rui is only a best when shes a sister to Natsuo and a love interest to Kajita. Being with Natsuo made her shit and once she moves on, she will be a better person for it.

i think your just pessimistic. Anything is possible, sure, but story wise Shuu has hardly been in the story and when he was, its always established that Hina was in love with Natsuo.

Besides, Hina was not happy with Shuu and became less happy as time dragged on. She may of been her first love but that only made it difficult to let go, just like with Rui. and after 241, it would be a major turn around for Hina to be with Shuu. even now she's doing things on Natsuos behalf.

not impossible, but extremely unlikely.

>Plus he was using his wife. Wasn't she the daughter of the university dean or something? Her father was some big shot school-wise from what I remember and may of had money as well.
it hasnt been established that Shuu was using the wife. only that the dean pushed him into marrying the daughter and Shuu felt indebted and obligated to marry her. he did love her, but the love faded when they had to stick with each other.

this. Rui's actions caused alot more tension and drama and she has never owned it. Hina does, has guilt and was willing to dump Natsuo for Ruis sake.
both are accountable, but Rui is a lot more shamless and selfish. she was selfless before dating Natsuo but after...well... and now the breakup and she still wants to get back together...yea...

>I have to cater for the worst.
me too bud.

but still, Shuu asking for permission to date Hina would be like Alex asking for permission to date Rui. Natsuo has no right to object.

but so much time has passed since Shuu was seen, and he knew then that Hina loved Natsuo and encouraged her to 'be honest with herself' otherwise she cant be happy.

If Shuu was going to be an obstacle, he should of been featured a lot more, like with Kajita. just once in a while or something. But too much time has passed and we have no idea what he's up to in life. i think he's moving/leaving Japan and wants to leave Natsuo with the truth so the lie dosnt eat at him with guilt.

>However, with Shuu like Rui, he always puts himself first and all actions have a self centered motive. He cannot make Hina happy.
Just like how Rui could not make Natsuo happy. i think Shuu and Rui's actions mirrored each other a lot

>Did it mean that Natsuo quit on Hina too soon?
pretty much. but then you have to take in that Shuu lied, Rui made advances, and Hina lied. it was an accumilation of things that made Natsuo move on and the heartache just pushed him overboard.

i think that Togens death will help Natsuo get back into writing along with Hinas help.

Just like the mothers death made him like books and made him dream of being a writer.

>i think he's moving/leaving Japan and wants to leave Natsuo with the truth so the lie dosnt eat at him with guilt.
See now this I'd like. But this being the type of manga it is, I'm expecting something worse. I still think hes gonna pursue Hina again. Mark my words.

>Not even a single doujin comes from c96
what went wrong?
what went wroooooong?!

I think most series that are already famous for having some smut rarely get that many doujin, if any at all.

i get it. its just that Sasuga has a style of writing in that what is eventually established is hinted and troped at throughout multiple arcs.

Natsuo and Hina being together
Natsuo and Rui being together
Natsuo and Rui rejecting Alex and Momo
Momo and Rickon being together
Miyabi and Kajita crushing/confessing
Natsuo and Rui breaking up
Hina admitting she loves Natsuo

All of these had signs of happening over the course of several chapters and arcs. with the biggest and constant one being a NatsuoxHina ending that has been troped at from the beginning, throughout the relationship with Rui, and even now they still get troped for it.

Even RuixKajita has been given tropes and signs it will happen eventually. the rejection, while valid, was also predictable and came off as light and open compared to the Miyabi rejection which came of as permanent.

So for Shuu to do anything is just not really conceivable since the last time we saw him suggested Shuu himself that he now supports Natsuo and Hina (or at least Hina). If more was done as consitantly as Kajita (sparingly but still there) then yea, Shuu could be trying to take Hina, but since he's not, its just seems unlikely based on Sasugas writing style.
the biggest surprises that no one can predict usually come from the newly introduced characters that have no prior mention, like Misaki.

i'm not saying your wrong, anything can happen, just that its unlikely and even if it does happen, there is too much in the story to suggest that it will still lead to Natsuo and Hina being together at the end. The most Shuu can do is become a Rui-like obstacle, but one neither Hina or Natsuo will be guilty about undermining.

besides. i think Shuu and Misaki would make a better couple. dunno why, but i see it more clearly for some reason.

did rui get chef'd yet?

nah. despite always being happy around him and admitting she and Kajita make a good match, she still has feelings for Natsuo and hasnt been able to move on yet.

sOON

did Hina ever take it up the ass
