Suzuka

[TwilightHack]

If you didn't want to be spoiled... I don't understand why you read a manga discussion forum about an Anime... :P

[D_Street]

That is probably right, but one thing came out of it. I knew there was a kiss coming but at least i did not know when so when it happened it was a good surpise

[aikming]

[Observation]

No chapter this week. Next week should be chapter 91.

Suzuka 91 thursday ?
does somebody have the spoils?

[nite0]

New raw will be available this week, no?

[hi no ken Jebus]

Yes there's a chapter this week it's titled first temple visit of New Year or something. Nothing major happens so I didn't bother with it.

[kokanaden]

Crap... I'm following the manga too but its being released quite slowly in my country... and the anime version (even though the animation quality was quite lousy) which i had followed faithfully has now ended! Need my daily dose of blue-haired girls...

Anyway, was wondering if anyone could recommend me a good site to download wallpapers/pictures for suzuka?

[ShikaShika]

Can someone fill me in on what happens between where the anime left off, and where the manga is currently at?

[hi no ken Jebus]

Since that question is bound to come up again here's a brief overview

Spoiler for ch73-90:

Ch. 73 Asahina text messages Yamato who never checked pissing her off and him wondering what's wrong. He gets forgiven.

Ch. 74 Honoka overhears Yasunobu and Hashiba talking about Yamato going out with Asahina. She investigates for herself runs into Yasunobu doing the same and he gives her some advice about pursuing a dream. So she talks to Nana and she tries out for a modelling shoot.

Ch. 75 Asahina is suffering from competition pressure and expectations. Yamato to help out gets her a temple charm.

Ch. 76 Honoka quits the track team and Yamato thinks it's because of him. He goes to apologize and she tells him about the modelling thing.

Ch. 77 Yamato wants to do more couple-like things so he wants to call Asahina by her first name.

Ch. 78 Asahina invites Yamato along to her house in Yokohama. He gets the ok to date her and why she is the way she is from Suzune.

Ch. 79 Yamato and Asahina go around Yokohama on a date

Ch. 80 Miho feels Yamato doesn't pay her attention anymore so she gets mad at him and he spoils her

Ch. 81 Yamato learns a lesson from Megumi. He also wonders why Asahina doesn't consult with him about things about her. She is having a hard time choosing between going to a training camp over her winter break or spending it with Yamato. He pisses her off and she ends up going.

Ch. 82 After dropping hints to Yamato and he not getting them. She acts bitchy until he gets pissed because she wouldn't just say what's on her mind.

Ch. 83 Yamato finally figures out she wanted to spend christmas with him and tries to get on the training camp. He can't so he wants to spend as much time with her before she leaves.

Ch. 84 Yamato tries getting advice for places or things to do with Asahina.

Ch. 85 Asahina leaves for an orientation meeting for the camp. Arima appears once again who will also go to the camp. Yamato gets dragged on a group date by Yasunobu. Here he meets a girl named Amami Yui.

Ch. 86 Yamato is seen by Asahina while he is with Yui. She gets mad and he tries his best to apologize but she doesn't want to listen. She leaves for her camp. Yui apologizes and checks if he fixed things with Asahina. He says sort of and she invites him to hang out again with some friends

Ch. 87 Yamato waits by his phone for Asahina to apologize. Worried about her not returning his calls he breaks down and apologizes first and leaves her messages. In the end she never called and Yasunobu shows up and invites him to go out with him and some girls.

Ch. 88 Yamato goes back to Fantasy Land on a date with Yasunobu, Yui, and another girl. He is reluctant at first because he had his heartbroken there before and Asahina never called, but he ends up having fun anyway. Asahina gets his messages. Yui and him stay behind because she wants to see the night parade.

Ch. 89 Yui tells Yamato they are similar since she had her heartbroken before in Fanatasy Land. After talking about their failures in their social lives, she convinces Yamato to go to Asahina.

Ch. 90 Yamato shows up at the camp and apologizes. Asahina bitches at him about the whole thing and finally kisses him after smacking him a few times (probably in fear of losing him but that's just my two cents )

Thanks that's awsome, gonna read it later, just wanted to say thanks right away.

[alphafirestar]

Hey, I've been following this thread for a while, but this is my first post... Just wanna say thanks to hi ken no Jebus...I can understand about half of the manga, so your summaries are quite nice. ^_^

So here are a few wallpapers that I've come across, unfortunately, no real links for any of them, so I'm gonna second ShikaShika's request for a reliable source... I happen to be in love with Suzuka, and she happens to be the title character, so don't be surprised that all of these wallpaper's star her... The last three are just scans from the guidebook, but they're in color, and they're kinda wallpaper-worthy, as long as you don't mind the slight off-centerness right down the middle.

[AmamiYui]

While Suzuka has 3 great female characters that everyone will take to, none of the 3 has manage to catch my attention much, until that is.......

Meet the cutest girl ever in this story.



Isn't she so cute and adorable, and what a great smile she has. She also is very nice , has a great personality and even shares something in common with the hapless male lead of this story. What is it? Find out yourselves.

If only she was introduced sooner......

[aikming]

i guess it will be a peaceful chapter after all..

[deathcoy]

@hi no ken Jebus
thx for the summary, haven kept up with the manga for a few months, really appreciate that...

iz the manga going to end anytime soon? all the mushy lovey dovey thing kinda boring sometimes

and yui looks exactly like suzuka...

[Observation]

I wished this was a colour spread instead of a black and white page......



Suzuka in kimono is LOVE.

Don't care too much about her relationship with Yamato, as long as she's happy and looks so cute like on page 17 & 18, thats fine for me.

Happy Suzuka = Utterly Adorable and Cute Suzuka

Her character growth will be so much more enjoyable to follow, changing from ice cold to warm sweetness.

[ShikaShika]

Pretty cute chapter.

Spoiler for 91:

I think I got the gist of the conversation, and I liked the end where they talked about when they first fell in love after having visited a shrine on new years.

[TwilightHack]

I liked this chapter too... it was a mellow, romantic, and cute... very enjoyable chapter... one of the few as of late.

[kokanaden]

Thanks alphafirestar for the wallpapers! Haha the second last one is now my new wallpaper! *beams*

In any case, for Suzuka I'm trying to buy the manga (albeit translated aka from taiwan); partly to support the author, and partly because the drawings are just sooooooo nice! Quite a huge contrast from the anime I must say. Still, the manga volume releases are going waaay too slow, and I'm still stuck at vol 7 when the anime has already ended! Quite tempted to start reading the scanlations... but I shall resist..... Haha.

And oh yeah... I still love the scene where Suzuka slaps Yamato after he kissed her... what a display of character and love~! Whee..
