| This chapter is terrible, especially since it followed the brilliant last chapter. Could Kou be any more idiotic right now... I like Kou far more than the worthless Touma, and yet right after the exceptional 21st chapter, the story has to pull this shit, even though it's obviously going to be yet another temporary, contrived misunderstanding, but now all the Touma shippers will begin reciting all the plethora of reasons that he's going to get with Futaba, even though that's obviously never going to happen. |
 |
| @Lelouch22, OMG! I totally agree with you! But I don't hate Touma, but really Io-san will give him love scenes with Futaba, but at the end Futaba will end up with Kou. Why Io-san can make this clear like she made will Yuuri? I would prefer only Yui was only one who gonna mess with Kou/Futaba ship... Really, Io-san don't make me start hate this series (and Touma) |

Really, Io-san don't make me start hate this series (and Touma) Agree completely with the end results, and also with preferring Yui to be involved with this rather than Narumi. This was just a really weak chapter with poor writing and inconsistent characterization. I hope this doesn't get dragged on for yet another 20 chapters, which will make no sense, given the nature of last chapter's kiss. |

| Oh my gosh WHY WHY WHY!!!! (I knew the previous two chapters were too good to be true...!) I must say that I kind of expected this sort of development since if they are together already, the story would not have any more (major) plot developments.. But with this kind of development, it is as if the kiss(es) scene(s) did not happen at all!! Rant to Kou: (Right, as if he can/will read this) Kou what were you thinking?! I hope you have some great plan in mind! I really do not get why you want to go so far for Narumi.. But on the other hand, I suppose it also reflects how much you care for other people. That is quite admirable really, but do not do it in exchange for the girl that you love!! Urgh Kou...!!! So far I am still supporting you and Futaba, just dont make me start to support for Touma and Futaba... |
 |
| SERIOUSLY?! KOU YOU IDIOT!!! I'm starting to dislike Kou more and more>< Io-san should do something about it, or else I won't accept it when Futaba ends up with Kou D: |
| After one chapter I don't start to hate Kou. I love him, he have his temper, but I love this part of him. More I can start hate others (example: Touma) when he start to act now after all this events... OK, he can comfort her, but don't try convince her about forget about Kou. I hate when something like this happen. Don't run, just go and ask what this means... -.- Everytimes she run before Kou, when something happens, only Kou have mature enought to go to her and explain situations. If Touma don't interfered with Kou/Futaba ship, things turned out differently... Really, hate this chapter... |
| Darn, that was the least I wanted to happen. I said it on the chapter 21 discussion. Well, Kou... You are an idiot. |
| why is kou being a bitch (i still love you bb but pls) |
 |
| I generally disliked this chapter. Narumi is just the gap between Kou and Futaba. She's what brings drama to the entire series, and that's her main purpose. The author is setting up a climax where Kou stop being an idiot and feeling sorry for himself. It's been stated many times that the sole reason Kou is so friendly to Narumi is because he feels bad for her. Anyways, hopefully this dispute is solved soon. I feel Touma is going to become Futaba's support until Kou comes back into the picture. Blegh, it's not very good right now. Worst chapter imo. |
  |
| I hate this chapter too! Kou is such an idiot. |
| ok that's it i'm not shipping kou and futaba anymore, I'M ALL FOR KIKUCHI |
| You know what guys? I hated this chapter too ._. I like when there are things that makes the story a little complicated you know? But everything went so bad that I couldn't say this right now. Kou leaves Futaba, runs to Narumi, Touma is with Futaba, frozen heart Kou (AGAIN), many dialogs that makes no sense (when he was on the phone, and his reactions also). When I was reading the translation version I couldn't understand lol (kidding, but it was very complicated though). Sorry for my bad English... |
| I will quote sakuries from Tumblr to all of this people Pfffft you sillies. Now you say you want Futaba with Touma because Kou hurt her. But then you’ll see all the lovely pictures of Kou and Futaba in the later chapters and be like, “awwwwww they are meant to be” and shit. And I totally agree with this! After one chapter I can't start shipping Touma with Futaba, just because Kou hurt her. And I don't understand people who start shipping Touma/Futaba, just because this one chapter. Kou/Futaba are created to be together! I will ship them till the end! *.* |

| I don't understand... How this could end like this Aya does it all, says it all... What all KouTaba fans want do/tell Kou xD  |
| I'm so frustrated at kou.. Narumi can live by herself just fine and he know exactly what is it that she want and still go to her like that and infront of Futaba... Kou no baka.... |
 |
| And once again, I lose more hope in Kou. *sigh* |
 |
| Totally agree with everyone - From the last chapter to this one, what a joy killer! I don't hate the current situation with Narumi, but I would have enjoyed a little more KouxFutaba time before the action came in (⇀‸↼‶) Also, I wonder when Kou will learn about Futaba being ostracized in middle school after he left? He hasn't already, if I'm not mistaken. Maybe then, Futaba will receive his love through sympathy too... (¬_¬) Just kidding (─‿‿─;) I love Kou, but he really needs to get his feelings together. |

 "You've been hanging on all this time, haven't you?" |
| Officially on the Touma x Futaba ship right now. |

Minami_no_Bara said: Also, I wonder when Kou will learn about Futaba being ostracized in middle school after he left? He hasn't already, if I'm not mistaken. Maybe then, Futaba will receive his love through sympathy too... (¬_¬) Great thought. Although I don't think Futaba requires saving from anyone. If there's anyone that needs saving, it's Kou (despite his own savior complex). Kou probably thinks Futaba's strong enough on her own, to realize she's been hurt too. |
| I hated this chapter, just really hated it. Why did Futaba have to ask him about that disgusting horrible Narumi, I hate that girl. And why did Kou have to go to her. His friend was right. Futaba was stupid to act that way too. Hated this. I agree with LeLouch22 too. |
 |
| in the end of the day Kou ends up with Narumi.... it's really painful to watch.... |
 |
NX12397 said: It just means that Kou doesn't love Futaba enough. That's why he decided to go after that annoying girl. And that isn't a good enough reason to excuse Kou to go after another woman just because she's lonely. If it were reality, he would be categorized as a player/ indecisive guy who is unstable and often runs from woman to woman. I'm fed up with him...in this chapter. Futaba should just give him the cold shoulder until he apologizes! She at least have that right to be selfish like that! Boo! Kou you suck! EXACTLY that's why i have been on the toumaxfutaba ship ever since futaba tackled him, even tho we all know she's going to forgive kou eventually and they'll end up together, sigh |
| LAST CHAPTER WAS THE PERFECT CHAPTER BUT THEN THIS ONE. OMFG DAMN YOU NARUMI. |
 |
Earlier Kou fans/KouxFutaba fans Now ToumaxFutaba fans. Shame on you! And all this after one chapter -.- There should be version with comments after chapter 21. |

| Kou is the worst !!! ever !! T^T !!! now I wish the best for Futaba and Touma $_$ |
| What a stupid chapter. |
| I was laughing so hard when Kou, Touma and Futaba were running, because it was like a domino effect. Eh, I'm liking the Touma pairing more and more; I've liked him since the beginning when he was introduced FYI. I wasn't rooting for him very hard, because I think the outcome is obvious.. but who knows... ;) Kou made his choice guys; LET HIM PAIR UP WITH HER. :P |
| HEY! |
| Go f*ck yourself Kou. I start to think that Futaba would be better off with Touma, but she'll still end up with Kou, that's obvious. |
| WHY KOU, WHY? ç______ç Everything will be alright by the end of chapter 23... Everything will be alright by the end of chapter 23... Everything will be alright by the end of chapter 23... |
LittleStar said: And I don't understand people who start shipping Touma/Futaba, just because this one chapter. I think they are overreacting because Kou and Futaba were so close to getting together (or so they [we] thought). I mean, I hope that's an overreaction. If it isn't, I consider none of them a real Kou x Futaba fan to begin with. Minami_no_Bara said: Also, I wonder when Kou will learn about Futaba being ostracized in middle school after he left? He hasn't already, if I'm not mistaken. Same here. Salinga said: Am I the only one who isn't mad at Kou or Narumi? Nope! \(^o^)/ |
| Roller coaster! I am very curious to see how far this complicated situation will be taken. Hopefully it takes more than one chapter to resolve. This is Touma's chance now, he best make the most of it. Side note- I'd like to see Touma's back story. He is a very simple character right now. xP |
 |
| I can't hate Kou and I can't hate this chapter. I wanna know more about the old relation between Narumi and Kou, then it would be more understandable. |
|
| UUUGUHHHGHGHHHHHH REALLY OMFG ARE YOU KIDDING ME WOW wow just wow pls make up your mind last chapter was so perfect now im really mad UGHHGHH |

This chapter was so frustrating... |
 |
| After reading the translated chapter... I think the author is trying to make Kou quite realistic. I mean, do not expect him to be the perfect guy and suddenly things will go super easy for him and Futaba. Also, I noticed that she is trying to make us feel pity for Narumi, but I just cannot pity her. |
| NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO |
| I don't hate this chapter because he went to Narumi. I hate it because it's becoming so cliche. Underdog takes the main girl and love rival takes the main guy. Then lots of stuff will happen and somehow, love rival and guy breaks up and a happy ending occurs. |
Chapter 22 pissed me off so much, it was all perfect before and now sdfghgfds goddamit. |
