You can get addicted to shittily brewed coffee
It's more that I feel that as both a person addicted to coffee and one who has consumed copious amounts of lovely coffee when needed, it's a necessary skill to have so that you can control your own destiny when in a situation where you need the magic juice fast.

The most unbelievable thing about the chapter was that someone addicted to coffee would not know how to brew coffee.

Canned coffee from vending machines is really common over there.

I'd much rather have ucc canned milk coffee than any of the packaged Starbucks stuff we have here.

He was drinking instant and couldn't even notice when it was swapped for decaf (and it's easy to tell decaf tastes different).

He clearly isn't really tasting it, just swallowing it for the effects.

Kuuguya trying to get Shirogane to be the romantic 'aggressor' instead of just out and out initiating handholding and stuff is cute as heck.

The fact that we know Kaguya finds the idea of shirogane taking the initiative gets her motor running makes it even funnier.

How crazy would it be if after all the build up, and Kaguya making dozens of contingency plans and getting blackmail, if her Father was like "You want to go to Stanford? Sure."

It's not gonna happen but drat what a twist that would be.

I'm about 60% convinced her dad is going to end up being a huge tsundere dork just like his daughter because that is the funniest result possible. This chapter only raised that confidence by going through the entire checklist of "rich love interest in a controlling family" cliches in Shirogane's mind while implicitly mocking him for it.

The tsundere thing isn't really funny or redeemable if it does stuff like cause a child to suffer a total lack of parental love, and get a total warped view of relationships and a deep self loathing.

Also, despite her own hangups, Hayasaka definitely actively dislikes/despises Kaguya's father too and she actually is a fairly good judge of people. Which means what it looks like is probably what it actually is.

i don't know if there is any basis in reality, but in manga the children of zaibatsus are generally treated as nobility. with all the other bullshit surrounding kaguya's family and upbringing, an arranged marriage wouldn't be out of place. kaguya's terrible family could very well consider that to be her sole purpose.

Like I said it probably won't happen but it would be really funny if he's built up to be the final boss and he was like "Stanford? Of course you can go to Stanford. That's one of the best schools in the world!"

I can only imagine what Kaguya's face would look like.

I am the sexiest poster in the world!

I really want them to keep making more seasons of the anime so we get this scene, and I want it to get the full Jojo "ORA ORA ORA" treatment complete with loud swishing sounds and big Jojo-style text on the screen.

Animated Ice Kaguya is also very much on my wishlist now that I've seen a whole chapter of her, she really comes across as completely different in appearance to me in the manga and I'm interested in how they'd make her look in animation, beyond a few brief stills that I think we've seen so far.

Kid, don't threaten me. There are worse things than death, and uh, I can do all of them.
Watching the recent Hayasaka-focused episode of the anime makes me want to see some interesting interaction between Ice Kaguya and Hayasaka

After marathoning the Anime and Manga it is hard to find words to describe just how much I love this series. Just watching two tsundere's flail around is a magical experience and I can't wait to see what happens next.
