Seems like this one is gonna be a big arc just like Second Year Last Exam Arc with each character's point of view not that I mind and this one seems from Ichika's pov.

So, Fuu decided to choose neither of them seems plausible imo because he didn't have any major romantic development with any of the quint aside from some blushes here and there and so Ichika is revealed not to be BK, huh only if negi decided to take u-turn so more or less she's out of the game huh though read various theories that she may know who is the BK.

Alas there was a time when this manga was bordering a masterpiece~ Everything after the Seven Goodbyes arc has been slightly worse than the previous ones.

Disappointing really. I am just gonna stick around for now until Negi decides to focus on stuff and not filling up tankoubons.

Another tease that ended up leading nowhere huh? Unless by choosing none of them he actually means accepting all of them? Probably not lol...

It’s surprising how numb I am to Ichika’s character now. I just don’t feel anything with her anymore.

That kid's answer stopped Fuutarou.
He was gonna say a name. But he decided not to to bot cause a rift between the 5 of them.
So another teaser chapter.
I want some progress in the next chapter.
This isn't leading anywhere but I can't say that this was a bad chapter.
Ichika was BK. Definitely. But I still can't guarantee it.

I really hope that isn't the case, but we're starting to see the story going in circles.

Fuutarou choosing no one might be the safe option since emotions are running high after the school festival. Maybe he will make his decision at a later date.

With that Ichika teasing I was expecting her to reveal it was a kiss on the cheek, or on the head of a baby or dog or something.

There's no contradiction in what he's saying. He likes all of them, but doesn't want to pick one because it would ruin the friendship all of them share together. At least that's what it looks like he thinks.

He can like all of them and still make the decision to not pick one. It's not like it's complete nonsense. If anything, you could actually argue that he's choosing no one BECAUSE he cares so much about all of them; because he knows that the other girls would be completely devastated.

Interesting theory. Regardless of the kid, i still think he will choose no one. Fuutarou never showed he likes any one of them just some subtle blushes there and here. No romantic development yet

I think Fuutarou's answer there to Ichika really ups the probability of a harem ending. Like, by not choosing one of them but all of them, that's what I want to believe at least.

He's not going to choose anyone? Give me a break dude. Just choose Nino and get it over with :3

And I guess Ichika was the one who kissed Fuutarou that one time. Probably because she had shoot a kiss scene with someone but wanted Fuutarou to be her first. Dunno. Just saying.

That's unlikely though. I mean Negi-sensei has been teasing us with that scene of Fuutarou getting married to one of the sisters since the first chapter. Harem ending will ruin the whole manga. So NO.

I thought this chapter was gonna be bait and that's what happened. This manga was at its peak around 60 chapters and after that it went downhill. And everything after around chapter 75 has been bait. And not to mention, how fast the development of other characters were except for Miku. After a certain chapter (can't remember but it's around chapter 65 I think), Miku hasn't progressed one bit. Well, thanks to all this crap I've gotten indifferent towards all the characters even Miku. This was a 10 and now it's been a 4 for a while.

Quite the reveal there at the end, what I'm hoping for is that there's a chapter for each girl and then Fuutarou tells them all that he doesn't know who he wants to choose yet, but at least that clarifies that he is deciding on choosing one of them. Would be disappointing though if there's some overblown drama where they stop talking for a short time or something.

It looks like it will tell the sisters' visions at the festival. The author is working well on the manga, confuses us, Fuutarou says he will not choose anyone, but at first he gets married.

Some readers express their disappointment because of the following reasons:

1. Fuutarou's statements of loving all of them and avoiding to choose among them are perceived as the mentality of a generic harem MC without conviction.
2. Fuutarou's response to Miku's and Nino's confessions on the last day of the festival will be delayed for at least 10 chapters based on the title of the latest chapter (at least 2 chapters per quint). It will be a drag to wait for 10 weeks before knowing Fuutarou's answer.
3. There is almost no progress in the Lolikano plot since the reveal.

All of the above correlate to the recent slow pacing of the manga. Long-time readers are starting to suspect that the author is milking the manga and they are yearning for faster pacing just like in the earlier chapters.

Him saying that he loves all of them, yet not wanting to pick one, makes perfect sense in my opinion. He's afraid that picking one of them will ruin the friendship he has with them. Like, he'd rather just stay friends and avoid all of the drama and heartbreak. At least, that's how I'm interrupting his decision.

I don’t know what the people here complaining about the then recent development smoked when reading the manga. I liked the manga until about volume 5. The time when they return from the school field trip to the mountains. But I’ve been loving it since the Seven Goodbyes arc. Some might say it’s because I’m binge-reading and I don’t have to wait a week for another chapter, which doesn’t even bring much development. However, I would have loved to enjoy the suspense of waiting for the development of this great manga. I’m a little disappointed that the part covered in the first series of the anime wasn’t as compelling as to make me read the manga immediately.
