just thought I'd let everybody know that after I read chapter 100, turned on itunes and started listening to Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here" I thought it was very appropriate, even if it is a manga bigrazz

seems like it's easy to condemn other peoples behavior
first i don't like this atitude about her having to give explanation because she's his girlfriend! she's not his wife or his property
and then put yourself in her position could you make a plan to have everybody happy with you??
it's easy to bitch about ideal atitudes but how many in real life have we acted justly confused
more like my principles arn't as strong to withstand th flow (flood) of life bigrazz

oh and my fav char is Kiyomi, she's got that dark aura and badass atitude and even if she's shy and awkward she can be sometimes soo wild ^^

You are right in that a girlfriend isnt property. But that comment also shows that you haven't actualy read the posts here. Its prefectly fine to leave a boyfriend as feelings change sometimes. What is a problem is how and why you do things. Lies and deception are never good for building trust. But the why part doesnt realy matter anymore as time ran out and she can't undo her choise anymore.

Kazama won the challange over Eba and she is officialy out of the Haruto race now. There is simply noway they will get together again, at least not unless several years go by. She can't exactly claim that she was just pretending to be a girlfriend of Kazama now that he is dead as Haruto even pointed out that she wouldn't be the person he fell in love with if she had done that. She is pretty much stuck with her choise of who was most important to her and her new status as a dead friends girlfriend. The finnishing touch from Kazama of the helmet and the implication that they would always be friends clinch that part shut for a long time. The dead are impossible to defeat.

Its possible that the popularity contest in this chapter will decide who Haruto ends up with. If Eba wins, then expect a time skip to the future as they cant get together right now. I realy wonder where this story will head now. It seems to me that an ending may be close. The time skip is very likely anyway. There cant be much romance for a while as the wounds needs to heal. Eba is out, but Haruto held onto that for quite a while so its not like he can just switch those feelings off right away.

As for Eba, I dont hate her. I think she did alot of horrible things, but in the end so do I mostly pity her stupidity. She threw away what atleast seemed to be a great mutal love, just to sit beside the bed of a dying boy that she didn't seem to realy love. Its of course possible that she didn't realy have any strong feelings for Haruto and her lies goes back alot further. Or that she was realy deeply in love with Kazama. I dont think either of those are true thou. So she will share the cost of her stupidity with Haruto. Hopefully he will find a better girl now.

Celebration for the 100th chapter and then a funeral. It just doesn't feel right....
It sure is sad that Kazama died. Once again the world revolves around Haruto.(The only available man of the story)
It seems that Eba feels guilty of going out with Haruto after Kazama death, so there will not be any encounter between them soon. In the meantime, I wonder whose relationship with Haruto will develop. Mishima? Asakura?(there's that promise with Kazama too---did Haruto really make one?)
Suddenly I miss our chef girl(forgot her name). Hope she will pay Haruto a visit. smile

laugh I was thinking that as well.

Oddly enough, I didn't actually feel emotional reading that chapter. I think it would have hit me if he drew the scene at the hospital when he died. I mean, skipping 2 - 3 days after the surgery and going straight to the funeral? You're mean't to skip the boring conversations and fillers, not the meaty emotional parts.

Yeah, the author could write like that. For example: Haruto and Mishima go to school , waiting for the result of the surgery. After school, they rush to the hospital, only to hear that Kazama died.Eba and Asakura were already there crying. Mishima started crying too. Haruto says something like" Are you kidding me man! Wake up already blah blah blah".....
Well, I think it would be overdrammatic writing this way (Maybe your version is different and ... truly emotional).
I like the way the author skipped to the funeral part. It's more sad to see people trying to smile when they are in pain. And the story needs to move on. After all, Kazama is no protag.

Yeah. I actually like the way Kouji presented it. I didn't look at the raws so I thought he would still be alive for most of the chap.


Also will Haruto give up on Yuzuki and go back or what? B/c I think he realizes that she needs some distance now.

He will give up on Yuzuki for sure. But I think its he who wants some distance from her while she may want to get closer now. He will probobly stay as the resturant is the one thing left for him to pursue right now. The series will be somber for quite a while unless we get a time skip.

People would read anything... Hell, I read this even though reading each page was like stabbing myself in the eye because I didn't have anything better to do.

Back on topic though, it's a shame that the only interesting character died. Now I really have no reason to keep reading.

Well, the only problem with the manga is the characters and the choises they make. But life isnt full of wonderful people so its ok to have some bad apples in a manga too. The real issue is that the main female character turned into a villain wich obviously upsets anyone who liked her before that. Its also a problem when the male lead still tries to get together with the bad girl. Its not like the readers wants him to get abused by her anymore.

I knew he was gonna die. I mean, the author couldn't possibly keep up an awkward guy-on-deathbed-with-guy-trying-to-steal-his-girlfriend relationship, so killing him off was a convenient choice. Now, then question is who he's gonna end up with. I'd personally go for the tsundere with long black hair, but I know that's probably out of the question. =\

Well, actually I'd still prefer he'd go for Shiho Amagi, but I know that's out of the question at this point ._.;

So, anyone wanna start taking bets or something? I'll bet 2 cookies on...

Eh, too early. I'll do it after the next chaptah.

This manga is about as interesting as watching a horse race on TV. That is, f'n boring (to me).

I strongly suspect we will see Haruto end up with the one who wins the popularity contest that was in chapter 100. I guess the writer saw it as a experiment to see who people will pick as he was too bored to just make it an happy ending. In a way so did he have to turn Eba into a villain then as else so would she have been sure to win as she have the most screen time.

Chap 100 was quiet a surprise I wasn't expecting the funeral scene
I rewinded back 2 times (gone back a couple of pages) to make sure i didn't skip a scene or two
yeah it's a scenic scene i remember when i lost a relative i didn't forgive myself for not shedding a tear or feeling sad

Oh and those two shitheads making territorial pissing comments are just proud with their small achivements (namely to trash this thread with unnecessary comments)
if you don't like this series then leave and shut-up!
if you got a critic and you want to explain of why you dropped it then say it!

You from North Korea or something? If that person thinks it's a shitty series than she/he is entitled to it. That's what's it's like to live in a free country and it's your freedom to ignore it or not, similar to how you may just ignore my post but there is no freedom in those that insult other people.

As far as KNIM is concerned I personally find everything before the Tokyo arc an enjoyable read and I'll just leave it at that...
