...and I thought this manga pulled off everything but then it slaps me again in the face with this chapter.

I mean it's probably redundant now but what. the. fuck.

I feel bad for Saeki even though I don't like for that fucking worm to be happy.

It's also the first time Nakamura showed a sad expression. I don't like that, I want my Nakamura in fucking insane please.

This manga is really "random" when you expect it to head towards one way it heads towards another, but it is what makes it enjoyable

But I agree she was a good characther mainly because she was always in insane-mode and being extremely sadistic that sad expression ruined it all. D:

So messed up so messed up so messed up so messed up so messed up.

Can tell by the look of Saeki's eyes that she has gone crazy too. But damn, the chapter was just... messed up. Can't wait to see what's next.

This manga always give the readers some hope for Kusuga's redemption before flushing it down the drain with the last few pages.

.......mind is blown. Completely. I can seriously hear static every time I finish reading this. What does she see in him? I don't even want to understand.

I'm glad that it didn't fall into boring cliche's, but actually still has that insanity feel to it, it's still one step ahead of me, while i usually am two steps ahead of boring predictable story lines.

I sincerely hope it continues this trend, since most manga/anime seem to drop at the middle/end of the story line, without real climaxes.

By the way, i heard a song by accident while i was reading Aku no hana and it went surprisingly well with it, especially with some of the stronger scenes:

Can't even say he was forced into doing it all of that stuff about her gym clothes. Absolutely hapless. There he goes chasing after her for the second time when offered freedom. He is Stockholm Syndrome given shape, name and face.

If Nanako were to go yandere, it would be awesome. Maybe even the only way to explain her absolute attachment to him.

True. Unless she turns into some sort of yandere like SayakaMagica wrote, it would be pretty lame. I would understand if they were childhood friends, but as strangers... it's just unrealistic.

Also lol the way Nakamura once again took his clothes off. "Hit me with it! I can definitely accept it!" This came out wrong haha.

I have always shown sympathy towards pathetic MCs, but this time, I can't....I simply can't.
Kasuga is the stupidest-fucking-shit-bastard-pussy-loser ever!! I don't mind Saeki turning into crazy-ass-bitch-psycho-yandere if she will kill Kasuga and Nakamura (This girl can't live anymore, she is fucking dangerous) =_=

Possible future outcomes
Saeki = normal life that's only a little stained.
Nakamura = life that would cause nothing but distress and depression.

This is so fucked up.

My impression is that Kasuga simply cannot stand to face Saeki's person, because he feels like shit about himself. He cant look Saeki in the eyes, in spite of her willingness to look past that, because of his actions and non actions. He is seeing himself for what he is, and that's not the holier thank thou intellectual he thought he was... The truth is he is as average a guy as the next one...

He thinks Nakamura has seen and accepted his true nature, and he is starting to get attached to that sense of relief, when everyone else could possibly be a judgement.

Saeki is not an angel anymore and he also doesn't see himself suited anymore to be with her, even though he wants that. And the fact that Saeki clings to him makes him feel worse.

Saeki too, she's putting her worth in the hands of Kasuga, and the more he drifts apart the more She thinks she's nothing.

What a mess!
