Omg. That cliffhanger. Kasuga's reply is going to show us exactly who he has become.. or hasn't..

I think he might say no, but it would honestly be a lot more interesting if he said yes for me :P

Sure!

So Kasuga leaves his post at the wake and runs up to Kinoshita and apologizes for what happened all those years ago.

Then Kinoshita asks Kasuga if he has time later, because she has something she wants to ask him. Kasuga agrees to see her later.

Kasuga's dad is gonna spend the night there with the grandma and the aunt, so he asks Kasuga and his mom to go back to the hotel.

Kasuga asks his mom to drop him off at the restaurant which he's apparently going to meet Kinoshita in. His mom is sort of against it because the funeral (or maybe continuation of the wake?) is tomorrow morning. His dad, however, convinces her to let him go.

Now we're at the restaurant.

When he gets to the table Kinoshita is sitting at, Kinoshita tells him to sit. But then right when he does, she decides to get up to refill her drink.

When she sits back down, Kasuga asks her what she wanted to ask him. They talk about where Kasuga lives now, why Kinoshita came to the wake, etc.

Then Kinoshita starts talking about Saeki. She tells Kasuga that shortly after that incident, Saeki moved away without even telling her. Saeki didn't even tell Kinoshita her new address. Kinoshita says she has never tried looking for Saeki.

She asks Kasuga if he's seen her since, to which Kasuga says yes. He explains what happened a few chapters ago (when we saw their meeting). Kinoshita asks if she's doing well, and Kasuga tells her that Saeki described it as "a normal happiness" (ch 41). Kinoshita breaks down crying and tells Kasuga how she feels left behind, and trapped in this town (sound familiar??).

THEN Kinoshita asks if he's seen Nakamura since. Kasuga says no, and that he hasn't tried looking for her either, and that he doesn't even know if she's still alive or not. Kinoshita asks him if he ever feels like seeing her again. Kasuga says he doesn't know, but he says he thinks it might be nice to see her one day.

And then the cliffhanger.

Kinoshita: Do you want me to tell you? Do you want me to tell you where Nakamura is now?


SORRY that was probably longer than it needed to be!

Thank you so much!!
Oh man this is great, I really hope he accepts her offer and tries to reconnect with Nakamura. If he does though, I hope its just to get some closure and move on from that chapter in his life. Although, if he sees her in a desperate state of mind, insane or broken down, he's probably gonna try to help her, and thats when I think it'll all go downhill..

Things have been going way too well for him the last few chapters.....

I just hope he sees her, they're both fine, and they both move on with their lives. I also hope Saeki doesn't play a role in the story any more. As for Kinoshita, she'll get over it, she'll make new and better friends and move on as well (if she hasn't already).

If it wasn't for him having a gf now (which I hate honestly, she's no more than a plot device imo), I would've definitely wanted him to work things out with Nakamura, wherever she is (probably a mental hospital..).

I know, right? Have you guys realized that the last time Nakamura was actually in the manga (not counting any flashbacks) was chapter 33? That means we haven't seen her in over a year's worth of chapter releases!

He could ruin his life again if he sees her, he finally is starting to live again and has Tokiwa, who is a LOT better than Nakamura, so I don't want him to ruin it but he probably will.

I like the chapter ! although I want kasuga to say no because I know if he sees nakamura again he'd waver again and leave tokiwa .. but without nakamura this manga is a bit boring !!

I really like tokiwa with kasuga because I felt like they can be a normal couple together.

the question is what would be the answer of kasuga ? YES OR NO?
I'm so excited !!
I still hope that kasuga don't make Tokiwa cry if he ever sees nakamura again..

"Do you wanna know...Where Nakamura is right now?"

To me, this sounds kinda fishy.
Perhaps Nakamura succeeded in committing suicide alone, or ended up in a mental ward. Or maybe she turned into a completely different person. I wonder.

Poor Kinoshita, she has been lonely and left out ever since those crazy incidents occurred during their middle school times. What a cliffhanger! Kinoshita knows where Nakamura is? I'm sure Kasuga wants to see Nakamura one more time to completely cut ties with her so he can live happily with Tokiwa. However, it's Nakmura we're talking about LOL... D:

Aku no slow. Out of the few uneventful chapters since the confession this was the most decent one, I hope the pace picks up a bit, I don't like how the author is dragging the whole Nakumra thing. Maybe I should just put the series on hold ._.

The original Japanese text used the phrase 究極の選択 which means "the ultimate decision".
The sentence reads "Suddenly, Kasuga is presented with the ultimate decision [to make]. Will Kasuga's reply be 'yes' or 'no'... To be continued in the next issue."

Although I also think it's reaching the ending, anyway :P

I like Nakamura a lot more than Saeki, but I like Tokiwa the most. Shit, man. I hope if Kasuga does say yes, it's to face his past instead of running away from it, and get over it; not for getting back with Nakamura again.

Knowing the main character though, he's probably gonna mess everything up like he usually does. C'mon, Kasuga, don't break Tokiwa as well.

Dammit, Kasuga was just recovering from everything too.

What a cliffhanger x_x I liked the talk between Takao and Kinoshita though, I never really thought about her that much, but it's sad to see that she feels so left behind. But still, the most surprising thing is that she knows where Nakamura is...oh dear. Time for Takao to face the past? Maybe?

A very interesting question. I, as a reader of course would want to know.

It's gonna be a disappointment if he says no, anyway.

Coming from Ai's statement, it seems everyone else she knew moved out of town, huh. I hope she plays a further role other than possibly being a source of information about Nakamura... for some reason I find her interesting.

I agree with the thought that he has to be honest and at some pint tell Tokiwa. But now is not the right time.

Poor Kinoshita, she was left by the crazy stuff that was going on with Saeki, Nakamura and Kasuga ... even though she clearly had issues with it, I guess it was bette than having nothing.

Boy ... it's been a while since we've seen Nakamura, I dont see how this could go with just a few chapters left.
