Chapter 59 is out. It focuses on Mayu, I think. Haven't read it yet.

Huh. That was the weakest chapter I can recall. One decent joke ridden too hard.

Just marathoned the anime today, and then read through the manga. Not regretting anything, it's just great.
That last episode. I was "ah man, they are doing the fireworks muting the confession crap. wait .. YES YES YES NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
The characters were all great, but Seo is simply the best and Waka has the willpower of a lemming. But still, she's one of those people that are fun to watch from a distance and loving exhausting to deal with in person. :p

Really looking forward to the "Waka, I AM Lorelei!" moment.

Is the whole "giving mythological/fairytale nicknames to people who excel at extra curricular activities" an actual thing that happens in Japanese high schools or is that just a manga contrivance? Granted, I only went to one high school but I never once heard someone say "Oh, that guy is Joe Smith, otherwise known as the Lightning Wing Hermes of the track and field team". Pretty sure someone would get punched in the throat for saying something like that in real life.

When my dad was in college he played Ultimate Frisbee with young men nicknamed "God" and "Buddha," so, maybe?

Finally caught up on the anime and the translated chapters of the manga as well. What a fantastic, heartwarming, hilarious series. Was the fate of Okada (the boy that Seo put on the truck that drove away) ever revealed? :ohdear:

According to some author Q&A bit, the truck evidently brought Okada to a strawberry farm and he came back with strawberries for Seo. :3:

This is a good sign, right? I don't know much about the anime industry's business decisions but I'm hoping this means this show was actually popular in a way that means "people are reading the manga" and "people are buying the Blu-Rays" and not just nerds are stuffing internet polls.

So I was watching Nozaki-kun on Crunchyroll this evening but now Crunchyroll appears to be down and it's preventing me from watching more Nozaki-kun. Honestly the anger I feel right now is so great that I am shaking from it.

It's on Hulu too, so you might as well go there.
