| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- >Give me some candy or I'll play some trick on you Ah classic Halloween. It's all about getting that candy and enjoying the treat. Classic. Karin looked cute in her outfit imo |

| The last page, my goodness Karin!!! ;~; Yutaka is such a baka. Ughhh, the feels. It was a cute chapter though. |

| When I figured out he was going to give her the ring, my initial thought was, "Yutaka, you cruel, cruel bastard!" I mean, it has been months since he turned her down after she confessed, and he pulls a stunt like choosing the candy ring out of all the candies he could give her? Why don't you poor a little lemon juice over that open cut while you sprinkle it with salt? My next thought was, "Is he going to come to his senses?" But, alas, no. Despite his obvious desire for her, he maintains his wrongheaded chivalry-like stance, claiming to be not dating her because he wouldn't want to hurt her when he has to leave, and because he would never want to leave if he was dating her. But we all know that the real reason for his refusing her is that he totally doesn't believe that a girl like Karin would ever really love a loser like himself. His low self-esteem is not only getting in the way of a beautiful relationship, it is also hurting the girl he truly loves. That is a criminal act of self violence. Especially since Karin is the collateral damage! |

Misiakk said: Well i still don't get why he turned her down. There are several reasons: 1) He has the self esteem of a tomato that has been shoved back into the back of the fridge behind the water pitcher and is growing enough varieties of mold to to qualify as a wildlife preserve. 2) He is only going to be living in the city for a short period of time. He has a deal with his parents to take over the family business out in the back of nowhere and his city life is on a short leash. He isn't the type of guy who dates girls halfheartedly. My take on him is that he is the type of guy who, if he commits to dating her, would consider that type of relationship to be practically being engaged. If he dates her, there is know way he will want to leave her when the time comes to go home and run the family business. 3) The two above things combine to make him believe that the is no way in HELL that a beautiful, charming, sweet girl like Karin would EVER in a million YEARS want to move out to the countryside to marry a guy who runs his family's business. After all, she is a city girl, born and bred. She has friends in the city, her mother is there, and to top it off, her mom is ill. There is no way, in his mind, that Karin would want to move to his home town and leave her friends and her mother in the city. |

There is no way, in his mind, that Karin would want to move to his home town and leave her friends and her mother in the city. I personally wouldn't bag on the guy, cause he does have his reasons as to why he wouldn't want to hit and run with Karin. He seems like a good, albeit shy, person, but I still don't believe how Karin, who is an outgoing and charming girl, could fall in love with him. He seems more like a good friend rather a good love interest. It's been a while since I read the chapter where she falls in love with him, but I always thought that her interest in him seemed to have came out of the blue, which makes no sense to me. Karin seemed like the girl that would definitely have a boyfriend, so I am pretty shocked that she is single. She reminds me of several girl friends I know (I'm a guy) that date older guys (early-20s) in hs. I don't see her falling for him as that big of a problem. For one thing, she has lived alone with her mom for a long time, from the sounds of it. Since her mom is sick and in the hospital, I would guess that she has been focused on her mother for the past several years. Add in the fact that she has worked for the theme park for a little over a year and that cuts into her social life schedule quite a bit, too. In terms of the process of her falling for him, it was pretty much a perfect storm. It started out on a high note with him sticking up for her to the janitor guy. You have to figure she had noticed him on the bus before that, since they were the only two at the last stop, and that made her notice him more. Then he went and did something really kind and caring for her: offering his umbrella to her. Then he displayed some nice vulnerability by passing out right then and there. She took him to her home to care for him, changed his clothes for him, and probably got to feeling a little bit close to him because of that. Sure, he isn't the manliest looking guy in the world, but he is still a guy and not bad looking at that. Then she found out he was a gardener and he offered to help her with her mom's flowers. She then gave him a hard time about them wilting, even though she clearly knew it was her own fault. That was clearly a playful, teasing kind of thing. Then, of course, there was the big bear costume mix-up, which shifted her focus to him, practically exclusively, for a couple of days. He avoided being on the same bus with her and she desperately wanted to apologize for saying she hated him, since she found out pretty quickly that it was entirely not his fault. (Since she knows that he couldn't get the bear head off by himself and that she wouldn't have been able to hear him talking when he is in it.) So she spent a sleepless night or two trying to compose an apology letter to him. Then, when she was at her wits end and really wanted to see him to apologize, he sends her a message to her long, complicated e-mail address that he memorized by writing it on the palm of his hand with his finger. When she asks why he remembered it, he tells her that it was full of things he had learned about her since they met, showing her that he really, seriously was paying attention to her and was interested in her. That goes a long ways toward making a girl think you may be something special. Genuine interest and paying attention to small details make him seem like a guy that is worth the trouble. Dinner together... Dinner at his house... Finding out about his family and the fact that he will be moving back to Niigata eventually... Him cooking curry for her... Promising to take care of the plant for her... and she was hooked. The water spritz incident may have been the real clincher: "I feel like one of your flowers!" I just hope it doesn't take too long before Yutaka succumbs to her wiles. It has already been too long, really, but I think he is weakening. RAMPANT SPECULATION: Spiritchuck said: Where is chapter 15? I wish I knew... :( EDIT: I checked the scanilator's web-site and they have this: Awaiting Raws Karin Ch. 15 (July 24) |
