Araburu Kisetsu no Otome-domo yo. Chapter 29 Discussion

At this point, I am honestly more interested in Sonezaki-senpai's mutual romance and Hongou-senpai's unrequited forbidden romance.

As for what Izumi said, that's quite stupid and insensitive (I can already hear the "最低!" ) but he's young so ...

THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER.
----------------------------------------
Oh God! Did he just say that?! There is a level of how honest one can get but that was out of my expectations! Was it because of the pressure from Momo?

So, are you gonna pick the one your heart desires or the one you lust over, Izumi?

I have to say, Momo's actions were uncalled for and it was borderline annoying. And Niina should not have instigated it so I am not sure if I should feel sorry for her. The one I felt the worst for through this development is of course Kazusa.

Finally being able to catch up, I just want to say that the manga has certainly become a bit too overdramatic/silly in the last few chapters. A bit disappointed tbh but it's still relatively enjoyable. I wonder where it will go from now on.

At this point, I am honestly more interested in Sonezaki-senpai's mutual romance and Hongou-senpai's unrequited forbidden romance. Cannot wait to see the latter unfold through the voice acting of FukuJun and Kurosawa Tomoyo (datte ano ko no koe ga suki da mon!)!

Exuse me but what exactly did he say? The curiosity is killing me.

Starisametaphor said:


Something along the lines of: "I am in love with Kazusa, but I'm sexually attracted to Sugawara."

lov3lymj said:


Oh boi I hope both dump his ass and it doesn't end in a 3some relationship bc he can't pick and Kazusa sufferes on her own or needs to find a guy who does the deed with her since Izumi refuses. She deserves better than that and Izumi is an idiot. If Kazusa stays friends with Nina her bf will always be attracted to her bff and not do shit with her. Thanks for the translation btw. :)

I will be the fourth to put forward this question: where the hell do you guys read chapter 29 when there's only up to 16 on Mangadex?

Xaicro said:

I feel disgusted with Sugawara for being like that to her friend's bf and with Izumi for being so blunt and insensitive. I'm not saying he is shit for feeling that way because if a girl is all over him like that and at that age, it's meant to happen if the boy isn't 100% sure about how he feels

lov3lymj said:


Who else is there to blame if not him? He is responsible for his own actions and could've refused her regardless of finding her attractive instead of pushing his gf away.

ninka22 said:
Only happy ending for Kazusa is to break up with that idiot Izumi and to end even friendsip with him.
I hope she slaps Niina in the face and ends their friendship for good.
In the end I want Kazusa to meet new guy who will really fall for her.

As for Izumi, I hope he will end up with that bich Sugawara and Sugawara will start cheating on him.

Now, this will be perfect ending for this manga.

So I think that there's a good chance that the blond will win this because Okada always makes the MC end up with the cool/ beautiful/popular girl just like what happened in true tears and Kokoro ga Sakebitagatterunda

G-Pele23 said:
Bad example.
In True Tears MC ended with the girl he loved at the beginning. She was always the only one for him.
In Kokoro Sakebitagatterunda MC ended with the girl he loved at the beginning. He never had any romantic feelings for other girl.

In Araburu MC loves Kazusa. He doesn't like Niina.
So, based on examples you gave, the winner must be Kazusa.
I don't know any manga/anime where guy likes one girl, but at the end of story decides to be with other girl, girl he doesn't even like, only because he find her physically attractive. Sounds ridiculous.

G-Pele23 said:
Niina has bigger problem to resolve.

Rozalthiric said:
I'm not denying the possibility of him ending with Kazusa at all but I feel like in order for Izumi to have a proper relationship with kazusa, he would have to move on from his lust for Sugawara because a romantic relationship also involves sex as well even if it's not always important but Izumi's feelings for Kazusa are platonic at the moment

Rozalthiric said:
I agree that they need to resolve Niina issues as well but I feel like the only way to make a happy ending for Niina is to make her end up with Momoka This is only happy ending that I can think of

shanimebib said:
@Miss_Elyon, you are wrong in that agreeing with @ninka22. Given that she has been through all the crap, she is never gonna get her perfect ending. Because her perfect ending is Izumi only looking her way, which is incredibly unlikely.

G-Pele23 said:
Izumi confirmed that the only girl he loves is Kazusa. Considering there are only 2 chapters left Niina ending is basically impossible. It's way too late for that.

Nothing says love more than the guy who wants to fuck your best friend. His love might be just friendship after all. He knows that Kazusa is a woman, but because of the proximity they had since childhood, he grew up seeing her as a sister. One chapter is enough for Kazusa to break up with him.

Rozalthiric said:

I completely agree with you, I guess that I gave you the wrong impression when I wrote those two examples
I loved the endings for both true tears and Kokoro Sakebitagatterunda, True Tears had one of the most perfect endings I have ever seen in a romantic anime and not just because of the fact that he chose the girl that he loved, it was also the most natural ending and it could have not gone any other way in my opinion, I didn't even consider this anime a love triangle and I never saw the other main girl as an option to begin with, the writers would need to change not only the story but they would also need to change the whole genre of the anime for the other main girl to win.
and Kokoro Saki also ended exactly as it should but that doesn't change the fact that the majority of people hated the endings for these two animes especially true tears.
I'm not into shipping and I never get disappointed when a girl loses because the MC always chooses the girl that he loves and every single romantic/drama anime with love triangle that I have ever seen ended exactly as it supposed to be

And I agree that a Niina's ending is out of the question at this point because it will completely ruin this manga but i think that there's a huge difference between finding someone physically attractive and being sexually or physically attracted to them..isn't that correct? finding someone attractive doesn't necessarily mean that you want to have sex with them and Izumi is physically attracted to Niina and doesn't just find her attractive but ... I might be wrong

I'm not denying the possibility of him ending with Kazusa at all but I feel like in order for Izumi to have a proper relationship with kazusa, he would have to move on from his lust for Sugawara because a romantic relationship also involves sex as well even if it's not always important but Izumi's feelings for Kazusa are platonic at the moment

This is only happy ending that I can think of

shanimebib said:
@Kirito_Alsufi: I am not gonna argue with what you think but I don't feel anything for the guy who liked Momoka. A tactless, self-important guy. If Momoka had met someone like Amagi, her take on boys would have been different. Not that I am saying she would cease to be a lesbian but she probably wonldn't standardize boys after that guy. But then again, she might have found bad qualities in great guys like Amagi as well given that girls can be tactless, self-important and sometimes more vicious than guys but her "so that's how boys are" was quite infuriating.

Regardless, of the first year characters, I only care about Kazusa. I could care less about Niina, Izumi or Momoka. A reminder that I am reading this only for the stories involving the two senpai and their love interests.

G-Pele23 said:
Manga is ending. Only 2 chapters left. It's too late for new directions, new big developments. It's time to wrap up the story. I'm not claiming that Izumi and Kazusa endig is sure thing. I'm claiming that Izumi and Niina ending makes no sense. Her love is one-sided and that won't change suddenly in span of two chapters.

Rozalthiric said:


I don't want to open a whole discussion because I think that the ending girl will be Kazusa anyway but I just want to say that the readers who support the ending for Kazusa and izumi have the right to rage at the latest development that took place in the manga and also have the right to believe that Izumi would go for Niina and just like what ninka22 said, Izumi's feelings for Kazusa as of now might as well be just friendship or brotherly affections because they have both known each other since they were very little kids

It's true that they are many shows and anime/manga that deal with the themes of Love vs Lust like the infamous school days although the but to be honest, this is the first time I have ever seen this type of love triangle where a boy has a girlfriend whom he loves dearly but doesn't want to have sex with her and feels sexually attracted to her friend instead.

Izumi told Kazusa at the beginning of the manga that he never felt any sexual attraction towards any other girl in his life including Kazusa herself, Niina is the first girl that he felt physical attraction to and it's quite clear that Izumi doesn't feel comfortable whenever Kazusa brings up the topic of sex to him and that instead pushes him a way from her

Izumi has a good chemistry with Nina and they share a lot in common and he really enjoys talking to her, this of course lead some people (mostly Kazusa haters) to want to him and Niina to end up together and I personally think that he does like Niina and considers her a friend

So it's hard to really know who he truly likes - is he beginning to fall for Niina? is he truly in love with Kazusa? after all many teenagers fall in love with each other based on their looks

But I think that Okada is going to make Izumi end up with Kazusa because she's the main girl of this anime

The next chapter will reveal everything

I know that Okada wanted to make a thought-provoking anime about the difference between Love and lust but the first thing to keep in mind is that this whole development of Izumi loving Kazusa but lusting instead for Niina came very late and the second thing is that Okada clearly wanted to create more drama to get a reaction from the readers and she successed in doing so because the reactions of the readers who read the latest chapter has been mostly negative and the thing that is even making people more worried about the ending is the fact that this manga is ending next month

Loretta010 said:
can you please tell me which chapter did Izumi told kazusa that he is in love with but he is interested to have sex with niina??

winniethewho said:
Also can Izumi just date a damn train and stop hurting these girls feelings

winniethewho said:

If the manga ends after this with Kazusa, Sugawara and Momoka being all ‘Tomo yo!’ I’m calling bullshit.

No relationship/friendship can be repaired after this lol
