Well there is one more chapter left (n Azusa's side of things). Plus the extra chapters in September and October.
Plus there is of course a very large opening for more to come (Akira needs time to regrow her hair and all).

The ending ... wasn't much of an ending at all. The girls found out that what worked for them in High School won't work in college . . .
Spoiler:
In all this, though, Yui got a chance to shatter the fourth wall . . . Spoiler:
As has been said, this doesn't feel like an ending . . . well, not an ending for an entire series. More like the end of the current story arc. It's the sort of "ending" that would allow the author to step back into the series just about any time the he likes.

My feelings exactly. This feels like a good place to end a volume of the series but not at all like an actual ending.

But seriously, that 'ending'? I refuse to admit it. I'll stick to my fanfics for happier K-ON endings.

Indeed, compared to the fourth volume, this ending felt somewhat weak. Too much focus on Akira IMO. Hopeful, anime will fix that. Although, I like the fact that HTT losing which is a nice change of pace and even encourage it. In life, you can’t always win all the time.
As for my anticipation regarding next chapter, Azusa should be introducing Sumire and Nao to the rest of HTT, and Yui harassing Azusa in front of them. I kinda miss YuiAzu after all these time while they were separated. Sumire reunite with her beloved Oneechan should be another splendid sight to behold. At any rate, I’m personally looking forward to next chapter more than any of the previous chapters. |

If it ends without a crossover, however, we will know something definitely went wrong as the series has certainly been building up to a reunion of Azusa and her seniors.

You know what would be interesting. If "future" HTT songs were written by Nao.
I am unsure of what Jun and Sumire would do, but Ui could always stand in for Yui. They only have one ED song without Azusa. "Don't Say Lazy" Could be done in the time between the festival and Azusa arrives at University. There are still a few months between those events. Or right out from University bu Azusa still has classes (and given how serious she takes thing, she might miss out).

i thought it would be a grand ending ,but it felt like just another chapter, when i finished the chapter i was like 'is it over?', and i don't understand why akira was so much in the spotlight i mean isn't this series about the HTT girls
and i guess there are going to be more chapters, so was it really the ending?? and these chapters are releasing in September and October that is soo long

Anyone have a clue on how the Japanese fans are reacting to this cloud of uncertainty, confusion, and just plain muddy water?
If it is supposed to create buzz hype for a new series about a re-united HTT, I'm not sensing it. If it is supposed to be the closing curtain on the whole manga -- I'm not sensing that either. The sense I'm getting is "drifting into the dense fog and losing sight of" :P

and on the other hand the high school story of fresh leaf girls was going to continue right, so what happened to that, is there going to be a chapter on this part in the next few weeks or not???

If the manga will follow the usual practice, then we should get one or two extra chapters when the whole chapters are made into a tankoubon. If they'll exist, let's just hope the extra chapters will be set at the end of the last chapters instead of the beginning

If HTT and WKBG are meeting, I'm definitely looking forward to Sumire and Mugi meeting. They're so far the only "pairing" that we have not see in action at this age.
