So, hm, Iwase x Niizuma OTP?
Well, from the way I understand her character, she wouldn't want someone who agrees with her at every turn (a yes man, as you say), and she'd much rather work with someone who'se upright, and certainly more ambitious than Nakai (who would work with any girl who'se hot and that's how far his ambition goes). Niizuma is perfect like that tho

Nakai's probably the most annoying person in Bakuman. But he's so real. He portrays those people who give up easily once they fail hard and don't achieve high.

On the other side of things though, I love Hiramaru. He portrays those who's passion started burning again and how age doesn't matter if you want to do something. It was really awesome when he got Aoki. Please don't tell me Nakai will have a chance with Aoki anyway cus that's disgusting.

Aoki's very mellow in the manga now huh? In the anime when she first appeared, I totally forgot how she was so Iwase-ish.

She's one of the biggest character development recipients in the series. Takagi totally helped melt her ice queen shell and that opened the way for Hiramaru to swoop in in his porsche.

Iwase got some development too, but I still wanna see her with Nizuma

IIRC, Nakai'd been trying for about 15 years when we first saw him... He's got a lot of flaws, but I don't think it's fair to accuse him of "giving up easily".

When a guy shows up drunk in front of your door screaming that it's your fault for no apparent or logical reason, I highly doubt you'd give him a chance (I know I wouldn't anyways), so I highly doubt someone as upright and intelligent as Aoki would do the same, especially when someone else, even tho he's in costume (epic win for the Bruce Lee outfit ), would come rushing in to protect you from said drunkard. Just sayin'

I wonder how the Hiramaru x Nakai team will fare. Will they make each other better, or will they just enable each other in their vices? It seems to be starting with the latter, with Nakai fully intent on mooching as much as he can from Hiramaru...

For someone like Nakai I don't know if he deserved this sort of ending, even if only temporary. Just kinda shows he didn't learn a thing about being independent and can only leech off other people. Disappointing end.

Well, realistically, he did need some help getting back on his feet (since he was already homeless...)

But yeah. He did seem rather shameless.

ROFL about Nakai/Hiramaru development. It won't end well.

That was...weird. Weird chapter. Not sure what else to say about it. Hiramaru always seems to throw us really unexpected turns of events. First he actually gets Aoki, now this out of the blue.

I hated the development in this chapter, but it was oh so hilarious. Hiramaru is the man. It seems like Aoki is seriously starting to fall for him. He should graduate from being a simple tea friend soon.

I don't know where this manga is going anymore... is it even going anywhere? Feels like the plot has just been meandering around lately.

Haha. Yeah, for the supposed 'heros' of the story, they sure spend a lot of time standing around watching other characters doing the interesting stuff.

The 'romance' (can you even call it that?) with Azuki is the biggest fail of this series. At least they finally acknowledged it (somewhat) in this chapter with Mashiro thinking about 'the essence of youth'.

I really hope when he goes to this class reunion and sees all his old friends married and getting on with their lives, that he starts to question this retarded decision. The whole idea that you have to put the rest of your life on hold while you pursue your dream just makes me head-desk. Especially now that he is a successful manga artist. ARHGHGH..
