Mainly wrt the situation with Kaguya, as opposed to the larger corporate picture, which is out of their purview anyhow.

[Sixth]

Such escalation.

Ishigami in the very chapter said that kids have no role in the adult fight and the next thing we have a kid is now meeting the "final boss".

I don't know why but I can't stop laughing when Un Yo bought Miyuki a lunch and then both of them are having their lunch at the roadside.

The best part is Miyuki completely has the unrealistic impression that rich people don't eat regular foods or do regular things out there.

Yeah, that tends to be how things work. If people keep saying it's impossible, foolish, a suicide mission, it's almost certain it'll work. On top of that, the longer any particular person continues to hold back saying "it won't work", the more likely it is that their participation will play a crucial role. If they run off or refuse to even entertain the possibility of serving any purpose, chances are they'll show up at the last moment, throw one blow, and tip the scales.

I really hope Gan'an isn't going to be whitewashed and suddenly confess that he loved Kaguya and her mother all this time while Oko is pulling the strings.

On the other hand, if Aka chose to do the exact opposite it wouldn't surprise me either, given that he hasn't necessarily played to expectations in more than one instance so whatever makes sense in the context would be perfectly fine.

I think that's exactly what's going to happen. Why else would he want to talk to Kaguya's boyfriend while he's on his deathbed?

To be fair, Un'yo wanted to get a hold of Hayasaka first, not Miyuki.

[Tactics]

Miyuki reaction so plain, comedic part is explaining cost of private jet?

I guess Aka really wanted to be done with this and move to the other ones.

I thought it would be brilliant if this was resolved in a comical way, for example Kaguyas father was always loving his only daughter but he was afraid of her because if the Ice Kaguya thing, and that's why he avoided her

Author: Akasaka Aka


Synopsis:

It is sort of like Death note: the romcom. Where both main characters employ various over convulsive mind games to get other one make first step... with hilariously mixed results. Manga became the enough popular to switch from monthly magazine to weekly one recently

This manga is peak fiction.

Well, realizing your clock's about to run out does make you realize things you hadn't.
Some of his actions MAY have been in part out of an instinct to "protect" Kaguya, just as his "don't love ever" could conceivably be a reaction to the pain he felt with his wife's death: marry, but don't love as that will only bring pain. That said, I can't buy that business wasn't first in his mind, even if a part of him pursued the business in the first place for the sake of his family.

Isn't Kaguya the daughter of a mistress?

I'm really hoping it doesn't go down that direction either, but it seems like it may.

[WingedAccelerator]

True Hayasaka is the homewrecker we made along the way.

Spoiler for Chapter 242:

Apparently, Gan'an collapsed in Fall, which would put the event around Chapter 50-100 in Kaguya universe. The lack of mention is not a good thing. He supposedly has only few weeks left. No whitewashing, he was living his life with "the end justifies the means". With his death, the Shinomiya era would be over, so the Shijo Family capitalized on this with their methods.

Kaguya is fine for the time being, but her value is high. Oko would be Gan'an's successor, and the second brother is already his underling. Un'yo is out of the question, so is Kaguya because of the family. Un'yo has a stepmom, Kaguya's mother was a prostitute, which Gan'an impregnated during his 60-70's.

The one who taught Kaguya aka used Shinomiya brainwashing was Un'yo. Miyuki has no ill will against Un'yo raising Kaguya like that. Un'yo probably has his tsun side as well.

Un'yo called Miyuki because he is Kaguya's weakness. Oko will try to manipulate her, if something were to happen to Miyuki, so Un'yo prepared a bodyguard for him. Who is... Hayasaka herself. Miyuki has to prepare to live with her under the same roof all day, everyday.

With that piece of information, anyone else wondering if

Spoiler for Chapter 242:

The principal and the family doctor were also clients of Kaguya's mom, with both of them admiring her?

I wasn't expecting Kaguya's mother to have been a prostitute. I'm surprised Gan'an even took Kaguya into the family.

To be fair, we already knew she was a mistress before this. We just didn't know she was that kind of mistress

Spoiler for 242:

I expected Kaguya's mother to be a servant or some regular woman, not an actual prostitute. I got to agree that I'm surprised she was even acknowledged.

[Reim]

Anyway good chapter

Maybe he only had Kaguya as his daughter so he brought her in to use her for poilitical marriage or something?
