| Well this time skip was a good one, though I feel they left the conversation with Nakamura really incomplete. I had thought that the manga was approaching to an end but something tells me the opposite thing after reading this, don't know why. Plus, it was obvious that Tokiwa and Kasuga were going to have sex at some point. Let's see how things go from now on. |
| if this is getting to the end, well, it won't be awful, but not what i imagined. |
| So basically Kasuga no longer feels the same way when he reads Aku no Hana. Also he wants to start writing something but he doesn't know where to start. But yeah this could have been the last chapter really, not sure if it is. But obviously he's pretty much turned into a normal guy at this point (working, engaging in a healthy relationship, school life going well). So yeah I'd imagine it's pretty much over at this point (I guess the ending quote hints for more though, but it seems like much more will just be dragging things out). |

| Aya Tokiwa :( |
| Wow. That is all. |
 |
| Kasuga definitely looks livelier now. Him and Tokiwa are still together, so that's good. |
 |
| lawl I see you are forever haunted by that manga. I do have some concern that this manga might do something silly like repeat itself when it's redundant. Mainly because that this wasn't the last chapter that I feel that way though. It makes it seem like this manga has more story to tell, but really where could it go from here? |
| please don't let something bad happen, please don't let something bad happen No idea where this is gonna go now... |
| Amazing. Just how I wanted it to end up. I wouldn't be upset at all if this ends the way it is now with Tokiwa and Kasuga together. |

| It doesn't say how long the time skip was but seeing he has his own place I would say they are in university now since he is in Tokyo but not wearing a regular school uniform but it's hard to be sure. It really is like that though sometimes once you reread something you read years ago you see it completely differently. And I think he needed that much time before he could touch that book again. |
 |
| Well, the manga is still not completed. I still expect something...or rather someone to trouble this peaceful clime around Kasuga. Nakamura and Kasuga got their closure in the previous chapter (which really felt incomplete to me), so I doubt that the author will bring her back to the game. Just wondering if Saeki (?) will make a reappearance. Would be interesting. But on the other hand, I don't want this manga to become another Kimi no Iru Machi... |

| @___@ I'm a huge fan/fanboy of Aku no Hana, but (and don't nobody hate me for this) I was uber disappointed by this latest chap. *maybe I just really wanna know more about Nakamura and why she did the effed up shit she did before the "first" time skip.. or why she's so bland and lifeless when we last saw her, but NO we got another time skip without answering any of those questions -_-* (I was looking forward to this chapter all last month to see if even one Q would be answered- like what/where Sawa's dad is or doing, why she pushed Takao off the stage or SOMETHING hell anything) I don't know if I'm mad or what... but this chapter felt so slow the first five pages were useless views of the city that could have been used for something else -overall an unusually bad chapter imo- Oh and seeing Kasuga so damn normal at his job really hurt for some reason |

| I just hope everything continuous to go smoothly towards the end. |
| It was obvious he would end up with Tokiwa but this chapter make me feel more relief about it. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| So many timmeskip, where's my angst? where?!! |
 |
| Time Skip, damn. The latest three chapters were so calm that it was actually really scary. Kasuga and Tokiwa seem like they finally became "normal", but I feel like something will happen. Especially featuring Saeki, she's permanently messed up in the head, even getting a boyfriend that looks like Kasuga. |
| Another time skip? Really? Ugh, I wanted more Nakamura. This was my favourite manga, but it feels like it's going downhill. |
| This chapter seemed like the end. Honestly, I couldn't care less about Aya and Takao's relationship and I just want Nakamura to come back. The conversation that the three of them had felt incomplete. I mean, ''Don't ever come back here again. You're a normal person.'', then the chapter ends and we gets a time-skip? It feels incomplete. |
| I don't even know what to say about this manga anymore... |
| Im liking it this way, im glad kasuga is staying with tokiwa.. Another timeskip tho, it looks like my favorite manga is about the end soon.. I really dont know what to expect for the ending, maybe the wont end it x) and just continue progressing with the story.. Theres quite alot of unanswered questions and things id like to know more... Nakamura, ow god. |
| Meh, just end it and focus on Inside Mari which is far more interesting for me anyway. |
 |
| I love where the manags headed with kasuga and tokiwas relationship. i just wish it would show us more about sawa too. Since she was the pivotal character in the beginning i feel like the manga is just leaving all these questions about her unanswered. I wanna know!! |
| "When you walk in a dream but you know you're not dreaming Signore Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli that's amore" |
| As expected, they're still together :) Was not expecting to see another time skip, but I suppose it was fitting since he finally got over his past with Nakamura...and the manga couldn't really just end there since that would be way too abrupt. Now I'm just wondering what direction this manga is heading :/ |
| idec I'm so glad he's still got a healthy relationship with Tokiwa ;~; I love her. |
 |
| Recently picked up this manga, and wow this easily gets to my favourites list. I don't know how much you guys been suffering for updates. |
 |
| Time skip was meh, things are going well for kasuga. I guess the manga is gonna end soon. |
The higher I get , The lower I'll sink. |
| Ah, at first i thought it was the final chapter, since everything seemed going well for Kasuga and Tokiwa (btw i prefer her old hair). Oh well, looks like a calm before the storm, again. |
My DeviantArt and Pixiv and still waiting patiently for a 3rd season of Spice & Wolf :'| |
| Wow, I was actually a bit disappointed we didn't see any crazy stuff with Nakamura and now it time skipped again. The manga has turned into a huge let down so far. |
| Definitely not a fan of this time skip. |
| Yay their relationship is still going strong! (surprisingly) |
 |
| Didn't expect the time skip but I really liked it. Tokiwa is beautiful and awesome, Kasuga is lucky to have her as a GF. I don't know what the manga is going to focus on now. If only it wasn't monthly. |
 |
| one the best and most original style of manga i have read |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| it's about moving on and getting better! I loved it<3 |
| Wish the next chapter was already out! I was hoping to see Nakamura in this chapter. |
| If this is indeed the FINAL chapter, I am happy. A happy ending to a manga like this is perfect to me. Let's hope it stays this way. However, I hope we can at least see Nakamura some more. It would suck if we never saw her again, I feel like we didn't get a good closure with her character. |
 |
| I feel like something crazy might happen. I believe the timeskip was meant to set their relationship as an ongoing and healthy. |
 |
| I liked the chapter. The big question, however, is if it's ending soon, and this is just some sort of extended epilogue. If there's indeed more story to come, then the conflict is almost certainly going to center on Saeki. The arc that just finished more or less resolved Kasuga's past with Nakamura; she's accepted (begrudgingly) that the deviance of her middle school years are incompatible with that of society, and has embraced what appears to be a normal life -- in other words, she grew up. When Kasuga learned that he hadn't in fact condemned her to a living hell, a huge weight was lifted off his conscience - he could finally put Nakamura behind him and move on with his life. Saeki, though. When we last saw her, the malice and latent damage that Kasuga helped create has never really gone away. She was confident that he would stay as miserable as her, and could find bitter contentment in that one thing. Unlike Kasuga, who reconciled his past, Saeki's grief and mental instability over the period of this timeskip has probably deteriorated even further. If she truly hasn't grown up and moved on, and has kept her obsessive streak, then seeing Kasuga remain happily with Tokiwa, or really anyone for that matter, might push her over the edge. I see that as almost certainly being the central conflict for another arc. |
