I KINDA DOUBT THAT!
I just finished reading the all the chapters of this series so far and I love it!

Regarding the last chapter, I know that by Oka reading Mei's thoughts it's very easy to assume she likes him, and also by the description she gave of the person she likes. But the way this series works I'm actually expecting the person she likes won't actually be him but maybe Mikan instead? I dunno it just seems something this series would do and this is all a big misundertanding on Oka's and our part.

Well Oka's presumably known Mei since before he started high school, so if Mei's crush started before Akane's jamming started, Oka knows exactly what's up and has for years.

Isn't every girl in this series supposed to be cute and dumb? How then can Mei be cute but not dumb? She's totally breaking the ironclad rule of this manga.

That's a pretty great resolution to the knotty issue. Oka was making an honest attempt but his heart wasn't in it for obvious reasons so he's not just a shithead, and Mei is a great person who is also extremely perceptive.

Mikan's are fake, no idea if his are. It seems like most (all?) of the misfortune gods are fake/novelty glasses anyway.

The manga's final chapter will be out December 8.

Of course, we still have plenty to catch up on. Still, the end is in sight.

Aw.

It was a hell of a run, though.

I'm putting a moratorium on any endgame spoilers in this thread. Don't discuss the final arc until the English translations get there.

Where'd you hear that? Was just talking to the tl, he said "some are saying", but that it seems out of place - ending an arc, but wouldn't be good for the whole series to end there.

Yeah, that was the tweet he linked as well, he doesn't seem to be super trusting of it though. (He's French and hasn't really heard of this manga news place)

Would it be spoiler-y to ask anyone reading the raws just how accurate that prediction might be? I know we're way behind on the translations, so it does sound plausible to me.

Not spoilery at all, but spoilered just in case. Granted, I don't read the raws, this is what I hear from the TL and Tarage:
This is the end of an arc involving one of the future kids (the manga starts delving into them more), and I'll direct quote Lyendith for the rest:
<Lyendith> It might be enough to conclude the Shirayuki arc, but there's still stuff to resolve after that…
<[Rod]> So unless it’s getting axed
<[Rod]> which I really don’t see a series that’s gone 200ish chaps and hasn’t done poorly getting axed
<Lyendith> Yeah, its ranking isn't as good as it used to be, but it's not quite that bad…

It's possible that the mangaka is just going on break and it got mistranslated by whoever tweeted that. A translation error like that happened with Flying Witch and gave everyone a heart attack for a few hours.

Pretty simple, the group currently scanlating Flying Witch isn't the best and mistranslated an end of chapter note a couple months ago saying Flying Witch was on break next month into "Flying Witch ends next month". Cue freakout until people with access to the raws pointed out the error.

Ah, that seems like something someone in the team should have noted before releasing it.

You know, a simple, "Wait, Flying Witch is ending next month?" "What are you talking about?" "That's what the translation says." "Oh wait I translated that wrong." process.

"Isn't the best" is a really nice way of saying "almost unreadably bad"
