| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- Ah and the final chapter ;.; And the finale shows some of the characters' futures ^^ I knew they would encounter each other again though. What an awkward reunion LOL, in the bathroom... 8/10. This was quite fun. |
 |
| I feel i just got Negima'd (What chapters are 212-219?) |
| Wow that ending was pretty bad. I mean the manga as whole was great but to end it in such a way is pretty bad. Maybe the missing chapters of 212-219 are the actual ending. Who knows but this ending was bad. Seeing them be adults now was pretty cool though. |
  |
| Well that's a bad way to end things. Ruined everything they built up to that point. 0.1,0.2,0.3,52.5,127.5,166.5,184.5,203.5 so that's eight chapters. Maybe that's why it says 219 chapters. |
| Can anybody explain what's up with that ending? :S But still, I enjoyed the ride. 8/10 |

Never counted how many of them are, myself. |
| Wow, that was really unsatisfying. It was just "hey hey" and back to old shenanigans, but just a few years in the future. How the hell is she still able to be a student there anyway? It was a great ride overall for sure, but that was a really bad way to end it. |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
| I enjoyed this manga but it was a terrible ending. ;____; 8/10 |
"The only one who can beat me is me." |
| Ending was horrible but whole story was really good and fun to read :) |
 |
| Horrible ending, but the series was enjoyable. 8/10 |
 |
| It's about the ride and not the destination, because the destination was not good. |
| What a letdown. That ending almost ruined everything. |

You see, he was well on his way to becoming a bureaucrat, but he gave up because he had a mental break down. You see, he never got over Adachi, ever. Just hearing from his friend about the reunion just reminded him of her over again. And so he became a teacher. The finish finishing blow to his mental state was the field trip. It just broke him. Thats why he went to the restroom. And the restroom became a trigger and caused him to relieve his first meeting with Adachi. He is just sitting in the toilet, alone, with his delusional Adachi. This is why she hasn't aged a bit. So what you should feel, if anything is sympathy to a broken man. tl;dr Shinagawa had a mental break down and is Adachi is just an illusion." this manga was a strong 9 for me, but after adachis disappearance and that ending, id give it a 7 I like this ending better. I'm also with you on the fact that this was indeed a strong 9, Adachi's disappearance didn't make it drop, but it's what was done with it that made me drop my own score of it, it could have been handled better, but it wasn't, once again a good manga gets a bad ending. |
| That ending was bs. i loved that there were explanations for what happened to the other characters, but the main focal point of the plot, the relationship between Adachi and Shinigawa, was ended terribly. |
| I like the ending. As long as they are together... |

It was weird that Adachi did not age a bit. And that non-chalant greeting...totally weird. I sympathize with you Shina. But I'm disappointed that anything about Adachi wasn't explained in the end :( |

| Great series I thought I can rate it as 10 but I don't think it is possible now that was a horrible/sad ending for me , well I enjoyed this manga a lot especially those first few chapter it still fresh in my mind =) |
 |
| I'm disappointed with the ending, though it has been really a long ride. 9/10 |
| Wow, I was super disappointed in the ending. I love the series as a whole, and it absolutely had a chance to be wonderful (based on Shinagawa's touching speech), but without Adachi we're missing the Megane-chan we grew to love, miss, and ultimately lose (in this case). Who wouldn't question a woman in her twenties back at high school? Really? I wish they went the cliche route and just did a simple "where are they now" including Adachi as a normal character with a normal future and so we could see what she had been up to during her disappearance. |

I doubt that was the real Adachi, most likely a figment of Shinagawa's imagination. As others mentioned, the nonchalant greeting of "Adachi" was very odd and she didn't show any signs of aging one bit. I don't know why the author went with this sort of tragic ending ESPCIALLY with Shinagawa's speech which made a GREAT setup for a touching reunion down the line, but w/e. This ending is as bad as Negima's ending . |
| .. Horrible ending but it was a great ride overall. 8/10 |
| Omg what a shit ending! 9/10 until chapter 150 or so... Final vote 7/10 |
 |
| Can anyone explain all the secrecy about who Adachi was and why she was so strong? Were there any hints along the way? |
A story has no beginning or end; arbitrarily one chooses that moment of experience from which to look back or from which to look ahead. |
ErgoSis said: Can anyone explain all the secrecy about who Adachi was and why she was so strong? Were there any hints along the way? Mob family is the general idea; even going as far as political and Yakuza ties, frankly if it wasn't for Yoh I'd be tempted to assume she was a figment of Shinagawa's mind all along, maybe all of them really.Ending makes no sense, it made more sense for her to not return at all and just leave Shinagawa in the end with all his other friends. Just make Adachi the representation of a troubled guy maturing and learning who he is through his friendships. It is HIMYM all over again. |

| Loved the manga the entire time but what the fuck was that ending? Do people still attend high school at 20? Don't they have some special classes for people like that? Oh well entire manga was great until the ending. I guess I'll stick with the "Adachi was a figment of his imagination" theory for the last chapter. |

| I stopped reading at chapter 170, and thought that I would read it again when translations were finish, which I did do. It was going smooth and all until when I saw the ending. It was like "...." it is a good manga with a weird ending. |
| ^_^ |
| Fuck that ending. |
 |
| What the hell was with the ending, so disappointing. I really love the series though, but the ending was just bs. |

| This.. DISAPPOINTMENT! |
Apologies, I just can't avoid to rant. |
| So there is no romance in this manga after all, ending was sure extremely disappointment, when I started this manga year ago I was holding back with marathoning it, after last chapter still so many questions about Adachi, her family etc. that weren't discovered. From 10/10 I dropping the score to 8/10 I would even think about 7/10... OH GOD HOW THEY FINISH IT THAT BADLY OH MY GAAWDDD THIS LAST CHAPTER HAVE TO BE REMADE kurokyubi said: read someones interpretation to the ending and thought, 'daaammmmnnnnn......': "Heres an explanation of the ending.

Yea sure mental breakdown, psychological demantia aka NGE in such schoo life comedy like that srsly idk how this guy came with that interpretation but he must have some great diller. |

| damn, what was the author thinking... Overall it was a very good manga, I'll just try to sleep and forget the last 2 chapters. Shinagawa made a great speech and made me cry, everyone graduated and it ended. That's enough for me. kurokyubi said: first post* read someones interpretation to the ending and thought, 'daaammmmnnnnn......': "Heres an explanation of the ending. Shes not really there.

It's the worst possible ending for a manga like this. A simple graduation scene is good enough for ending almost any light-hearted school comedy, I wish she followed the cliche route. |

I guess this explanation makes the ending super depressing, but it fits really well and I like it a bunch. I actually feel like the best ending would've been after Shinagawa's graduation speech... It was nice to see how everyone was doing though. aND WHOA YOH-KUN his appearance changed so much omg wow. He was cuter before XD ugh I just really wish it had either been open-ended after the graduation or at least some legitimate resolution with Adachi, even if it was just a glimpse of her or something. The manga was soooo good, especially with the interesting characters/plot, but the ending felt kind of like it was thrown at the readers like some kind of joke. |
| author said that she doesn't want to tell readers adachi's family problem, as it would not be a school manga anymore, fuck ill just imagine this is gto x gokusen origin story (it'll make me happier that way XD) |
| Well finally finish this manga. It is a good manga indeed, but man I don't like the ending to it at all. No dating, no marry, or no future of them together. Is he getting friendzone or something ? Well, I still enjoy the manga overall! |
 |
| -_- The author lose a bet or something? Man... Fk, it was so good that it really pisses me off that this would happen. I don't get why Shinagawa and the rest would abandon Adachi like that, at the end. |

| i still cant believe this...i loved this rly in between. it started out kinda slow but got me hooked after ~30-40 chapters and then it starts transforming into a harem and ends in such a stupid way...definition of disappointment right here. |
| I don't even know. 4 years and no girl for Shinigawa. Kinda disappointing. Isn't Adachi like old as fuck for school now? She just shows back up as a student? What the hell did she do for 4 years? Everyone went out and did shit and 4 years later oh hey back to high school. I really enjoyed the series in the end though. The end was somewhat fitting, but still a let down. |
