| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- A ten year time skip for the finale. With the success in tokyo fashion week Ikuto's brand kept growing and became the world's leading fashion brand. Chiyuki's dream of walking on paris came true too. Also a ring on Ikuto's finger, so they are engaged and getting married soon I think since Mashiro told Ikuto to take another step forward in his life which could mean getting married. This was a fun ride while it lasted. It sux that the end was so sudden and rushed but oh well still pretty much a solid manga overall and this was far better than a lot of the other popular shounens of it's generation. Definitely gonna miss this a lot. |

| It was a fun ride. We only got to see Ikuto's ring. They didn't clearly specify who he married, but we more than likely know who she is. I really wanted a long Paris Fashion Week arc, but I guess not. If I could rate it higher than 10, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I'll miss this series. |

| Man, this rushed ending was kinda sad for me, I really wanted to see more of their journey and how their relationship develops. But eh, I would be lying if I said that I didn't like this final chapter. Seeing everyone finally achieving their goal and being successful makes me feel so damn proud. Also, that ring on Ikuto's finger tho... I'm just going to assume that he's now married to Chiyuki. Overall, this was a really fun manga. I love everything about it, especially the art. I'm definitely going to miss this a lot. 9/10 |
| writing this 3 months late but anyways. A bit rushed but I'm satisfied because of the rings. An amazing manga and one of the best, in my opinion, would've loved to collect them if they got physical English releases but alas it's only digital as of now. It's been a fantastic journey and I can't wait to see what sensei does next |

| You can assume whatever you want since the author didn’t specify which one he married. But when you work with someone and befriend them for 10 years it’s normal to call him/her directly. Moreover, back ago there is a panel where Chiyuki ask Ikuto what he will do if couldn’t work with Kokoro anymore. He replied he will be sad but nothing can be done. And finally without Chiyuki Ikuto wouldn’t start his journey and his goals were to become successful fashion designer and witness Chiyuki walking in Paris Fashion Week. So I will assume that he married Chiyuki by taking all the dialogue and the interaction between the characters that I noticed while reading the whole manga in one go. |

| Well they got to Paris, although it's a shame we didn't get a really great panel of Chiyuki on the runway. All in all, a very nice insight into the world of high-class fashion. Seems like a toxic and stressful hellhole but I guess someone has to do it. Still, I did like how it went into depth about clothes and design in general. My only interaction with high class fashion is through memes and photos making fun of it, so it is nice to see the rationale behind some of the choices designers make. I bet Ikuto married Kokoro though. |
| As far as timeskip endings go, this was a pretty good one. I was however very disappointed by the lack of confirmation of Ikuto x Chiyuki. The author stated that he intentionally left it open to the readers to decide who he ended up with (I didn't even realise there was a ring on Ikuto's finger until I read the interview), but of course I think I speak for most people when I believe it's Chiyuki. There's just been too much development on that front, dozens of chapters without Kokoro, that it seems clear that Ikuto x Chiyuki ends up together. Also, the last scene of the manga is Ikuto and Chiyuki together so. It was great to see everyone reaching their dreams. Great to see the timeline as well. Ikuto reached Paris Collection in 3 years, a more realistic number. The author also said that he planned the ending like this and that it wasn't axed. I'm not sure if that's true, but I guess I'll believe him. It still felt rushed however. I would've really loved a Paris Collection arc to end things with a blast, and a clearer ending with Chiyuki rather than what we got. A missed opportunity, I think. It could've gone a good 2-3 more volumes. All in all, a great manga. One of the best shounen I've read. Disappointed about the open ending in terms of romantic development, and that we could've had a Paris Collection arc. But what can you do? I was going to give this a 9/10, but because I'm very disappointed about the romantic open ending, I can't help but give it an 8/10. Will miss this series. |

| I binged this manga in 2 to 3 days. I felt last 10 chs felt rushed and the ending was mid. and I guess i understand why on the wiki it has both girls as wives. due to authors words. |
| I know this isn't a romance focus manga either but it feels not genuine to leave the ending of pairing to be open ended a cap out.to your readers. and then no Paris arc? really? feel like I wasted my time reading this the ending was so flat compared.to.all the arcs. just really disappointed..hope.they don't make another manga end like this if they do decide to take up their pen. |
