I think, after he shed all the skin that Naze stated he did from beating the crap out of the manga's strongest villain and all, maybe he's just maturing.

Sure, dosen't mean he's called off the engagement. Probably hasn't. Yet. Hopefully.

It just means he's got some veeeery interesting dialogue to show for now:

Spoiler:

Only the future will tell.

Edit:

And besides, whether you are pro-MedakaxZen or whether you're anti-MedakaxZen, I think both sides can easily agree that this chapter was a massive service for Zenkichi's whole character. Him deciding to live his own life for now, simply because he wants to and is having fun, and deciding that he can't just be satisfied anymore just by being with Medaka(ala Hanten and Anshin), is certainly extremely cool and understandable.

Now, the bigger issue: what's up with Nienami? I'm starting to think she might really be Anshin'san, she's so interested in Zenkichi's life, what the fuck...

I don't know why but Zenkichi's face when he says I'm no longer satisfied by just being by her side reminds me of the Soul eater Excalibur face. It's basically like he just saw his future and went nope fuck that.

Tenchi Hou Take@ More than that I think he don't want a future like that where he is with Medaka ..yes but not the way he want.
So he know that he need to do this ,if he want to be with her in the right way.

Now, the bigger issue: what's up with Nienami? I'm starting to think she might really be Anshin'san, she's so interested in Zenkichi's life, what the fuck..

This is something that I wondering as well.

So I'm not the only one. Even from that time where Zenkichi heard her voice resounding at this back, and who was the one who was there, behind him, in that very instant? Yep, she.

Now that you mention it, the face is eerily familiar.

Don't mis-understand, though.

All he just did had nothing to do with "being with Medaka in the right way". He's not doing this for her sake, or because he loves her, or anything of the sort.
He's changing, precisely for that reason, precisely because he can't be satisfied anymore with *just* Medaka. He dosen't want to be like Hanten anymore. He realizes that he can't stay like that forever.

He's not doing anything for anyone this time, except for himself. Maybe Nishio played some Metal Gear Rising recently...

Dosen't mean he grew out of loving her, though. Unfortunately.

[Tenchi Hou Take]

TBF considering hasn't so much as had a proper conversation with Medaka, Zenkichi's the only guy she can stick with to remain in the "spotlight".

[Wolfenstein]

Meh, it sounds like Nishio's going to make an entire arc out of this party, so I'm sure we'll be seeing her.

Well that wouldn't be a surprise, she does have terminals everywhere after all.

[Wolfenstein]

And if you notice, Nishio purposefully gives her some of Anshin's mannerisims. Well, at least, I think so. Can't really be sure.

[Homura7]

I'll stick with my theory that Nienami inherited Anshin's spirit and will and is slowly becoming like her.

[Wolfenstein]

You know, Nienami x Zenkichi?

I could ship it. They have some cool scenes.

[Homura7]

I don't discard this. Wanna know why? Because I've read/watched other Nisio's works and I know how they ended.

[Last Carpet]

This far into the series, and we finally see teachers.

I'm most interested to see the -13 Homeroon teacher in action.

Moreover, a hint to Medaka's past of desperation of not being alone anymore, asking Zenkichi to come with her. And kudos to him for not bending to her will and telling her what he wanted for a change.

Wonder what'll happen now. Anyone think she'll get a job at Hakoniwa as a teacher?

[Lupus753]

@Wolf: Should I call it ZeNami or NienIchi?

[Homura7]

Zenami sounds better.

This.

Now, to kick-start, I would have to find some fan-art, but there probably is none.

[Homura7]

You can always draw one yourself...



no, forget what I've just said.

[Wolfenstein]

I'd rather die then draw my own fanart >:I

[silvercover]

yep, im also with the theory that nienami = ajimu.
for a gag character, she's a bit too deeply involved with a particular character in comparison to how kumagawa rolls.

[Homura7]

She even does Anshin's catchphrase: Glittering Star sign + sticking out her tongue with a smile.

Not an exact quote, but I think I got the gist of it.

There is no joke too dumb for me to tell.
