Posting this that I posted in the manga thread. I feel it's fitting for those of us that are fans of Chihaya and Arata :P

I've been thinking of how I want to see Chihayafuru's current arc end (it would fit for an ending of the series, but I really would like it to not stop :P).

I want this arc to end with Chihaya obviously beating Shinobu (3 to 2) and Arata obviously beating Suo (3 to 2). But then I want Chihaya's greed to come up at the end and ask for a match between Arata. To settle strongest between them. But her greed goes further and wanting to also see a match between Shinobu and Suo. Protest from some in committee, but obviously older queen who wanted to fight the master in her day will push for it as well as some others. Arata will clearly want that too. Even Shinobu will want to play against Suo for once. They allow for at least one game each due to time.

Suo loses to Shinobu and Shinobu can be like "the little gods love me because I love them back, you could be stronger if they loved you too" (that + Arata's matches could be what give Suo finally some passion for Karuta).

Arata and Chihaya will be a long match and Chihaya will be at a crazy 200% skill by being so focused on her objective. Not just to play Karuta with Arata, but to send a message to him too. Only allowing him to take the cards that give her feelings towards Arata clear as day. Because she is, after all, a Karuta nut and could only really do everything around Karuta. Winning or losing doesn't really matter here (but I think Winning for Chihaya would be better). The cards left are the ones bout love and we can have Kana-chan be the good ol' voice over realizing it. I don't think Arata ever really look deep into the meanings of the cards (he clearly knows them given earlier bits about how he sees Karuta instead of the Cell Phone as his bridge to her), but I think Chihaya could explain it well then to him and clearly confess her love for him. It seems perfect to me that he would get her confession (and she give it) through Karuta itself. I think it'd be better with her winning because part of what makes her win is her deeper knowledge of the poems and how much she loves Karuta beyond just the competitive nature and it could help him come to appreciate Karuta even more. Obviously can kiss then and there can be reactions from all. This event as well as with the prior can really help things explode for popularity on Shinobu's youtube as well as Chiihaya's social media and helps them make Karuta more into a profession they can get paid while playing.

Just seems the most fitting conclusion for the arc. And I'd personally the series not end there so we can see Chihaya and Shinobu as well as others help push Karuta to be a professional sport as well as see Chihaya pushing Mizusawa as a coach while she's attending college (Chihaya is super greedy after all :P) and see Arata with Chihaya's relationship bloom more. I'd just love the series not to end there, but I think that'd also be a fitting place for it to end.

It likely will go similar to this, I think, with at least Chihaya and Arata winning and a confession, but the key I really wanna see is Chihaya getting a match right then and there against Arata to confess her feelings that way and it being public to everyone around/watching.

@TheGodEmperor
Thank you for sharing this awesome theory for this coming arc that leaves all the Arata fans SUPER intense of excitement in what's to come: yes, is very likely for Chihaya to come up with something like that ( her greediness in what comes to karuta has no limits), settling an ultimate match against Arata here and there is something she could declare to him ( the winner against the strongest will be #1 in the world of karuta- since Chihaya did mention her victory against Arata at the team tournament during her interview as a big accomplishment she received before Shinobu had a chance to win against Arata, we could picture her doing like that) : if your theory is right one the mark which so happened both Arata and Chihaya won their matches against the championships, Chihaya might settle a private match against Arata in front of all the audience ( or another theory, having them set at a private room where they can be ALL ALONE TOGETHER). Oh yes, let's not forget, Chihaya will definitely give Arata her confession through their match together that will express all passion they both feel in both the love from karuta and most important, TEH PASSIONATE LOVE THEY BOTH SHARE TOWARD EACH OTHER: through karuta Arata confession his love towards Chihaya, therefore the same way Chihaya will give her reply through
karuta as well, from there we will get to see Arata and Chihaya's misty bridge where the karuta symbolize their love where they can finally cross and unite together forever: OH YES!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh yeah, I also like to add something here too, at Omi Jingu stairway where Chihaya told Arata about her wanting to become the strongest karuta player in the world at ch 173, in that same spot having the bright red gate along with all the shines stars as witnesses, will set their love on fire, sealing their love with a PASSIONATE KISS, OMG NOW THAT WILL BE ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!!! XD
Suetsugu-sensei please bring us the atmosphere from the first chapter in how Chihaya was brought to love karuta in the first place, by her having a private match against Arata but this time in the present time: now that will be AWESOME AND BEAUTIFUL: OH YES PLEASE!!!!!!!!! XD
