Chitoge won.

Onodera was the promise girl, inside the lock were letters from Raku and Onodera as children asking if their future selves still loved each other.

We're near the end, at long, long last.

I have to say I liked the scene with Raku reading the letters addressed to their future selves. Little Onodera wondering if Raku still loves her in the future? drat, even I felt that one.

The ending (in terms of the result itself) is already less genetic than 90 percent of harem our shojo manga. Love Hina, which has better writing and wrappings, still had the generic ending, and there were no broken hearts.

This us closer to, say, Fruits Basket.

You could basically just redo Gunsmith Cats with Tsugumi and Paula, but with less nudity and sex.

anyone can give something to anyone, like cards, chocolates, plushes, edible underwears, whatever. Only japan has the gender specific days. It works better if you misunderstand the gender specifics instead of acting like american people literally have never heard of valentines day.

like im sure hitman-chan would know about say... the valentines day massacre, she probably had to study it in hitman school

It's funny how in shounen romantic comedies it's not enough for the protagonist to just end up with the girl he likes; all the other girls who like him must also be satisfied with his decision and continue to pine after him in silence for all eternity.

I bet you the epilogue of this series shows them meet up after college and Chitoge's got a ring on it, but all of the other girls are single, blush when Raku talks to them, and are internally sad.

In a sane universe this is the last chapter.

Apparently the magazine is touting a new harem series starting a couple issues down the road. So that's our likely deadline.

Also, the series should end with Raku meeting up with Shuu five years later and discovering that he's living with the other girls in a giant polygamous sex dungeon. "Man, Raku, you really missed out. Especially with Onodera, she's a FRRRREAK."

Chitoge's got a ring on, but it's not from Raku. Tsugumi comes into frame, also has a ring. Raku and Onodera girls own a candy store together, but he and Kosaki still just fidget and fuss all of the time instead of actually going out, forever trapped in the hell they've each created for themselves.

e:
Also, chapters like this are always kinda weird. "I like you." "Really? I've got a lot of problems, and am not fond of my own personality. You're OK with dating literal garbage?" "Yup."

The entire setup reminded me of Love Hina actually, except without the entertainment level of Naru trying to escape Keitaro and without the winning girl turning out to just coincidentally be the promise girl.

I'm ambivalent if I want Nisekoi to do an arc like the post-confession arc in Love Hina though because that arc was awkward as all gently caress, but also kind of funny.

Thanks to that crossover, THIS is happening at the same time as Nisekoi.

Basically what I'm saying is watch/read My Love Story. Not only to get the taste of Naoshi Komi's revenge grudgefuck out of your mouth but to remember what good things are.

Alpha Kenny Juan

I would be shocked if someone who reads Nisekoi doesn't read My Love Story, especially since there was a crossover chapter with the characters from both series.

But on the off chance that someone here hasn't read it: read it as soon as you can because it is Good.

I'm buying the books too and it reached the end of the anime content. Soon will be new territory for me. :neckbeard:

I accurately predicted the part where Chitoge leaves again for no loving reason other than mangaka are loving obsessed with that trope where after the relationship issues are settled, one of the romantic leads leaves for no real reason and then returns in the closing seconds of the series.

C'mooooon final insane swerve. Raku meets a completely new girl in college and gets married. Chitoge comes home unannounced and a fully rehabilitated Marika steps out of the shower. Raku and Shuu are living happily together in San Francisco. Something! After 200 chapters of this bland paste, blow everyone's minds, Komi!

Nisekoi and Bleach both have one issue more (not this upcoming one that's leaked, one more after that).

For Nisekoi - unlike, say, Toradora or Nozoki Ana, Chitoge seems to be gone for YEARS. Crazy.

Hope that works out well for her. Last time a girl disappeared for years, Raku forgot that he knew her and made a promise with her...

Onodera not only loses, its shown that she's making the wedding cake for Raku and Chitoge. loving savage; she not only loses, but she has to pine for Raku for eternity while pretending to be happy that she got viciously NTR'd.

The only other person who wins is Y-san from Chiba Prefecture, who apparently is gonna hook up with Marika lmao
