Remember kids: he loved her from the start, he simply did not know yet. Thus this is a redemption arc for both of them. Her overcoming her trauma of course, but certainly also him overcoming his remorse of not having been there for her when she needed him the most and/or confessing when he had the chance.

From what I can tell, manga/comics like this are the reason why there are so many anime centered around high school, because apparently in Japan once you're out of high school, it's all down hill from there. Not really much happiness, simple joy, no one to hang out with who you grew around. So it makes sense why there's always so many anime set in high school.

[@darthpateta]

bro, i read that whole stuff bro, it was on nhentai, i NEVER thought any mangas or comics or doujins on nhentai would be that good in story and the thing is, the fanbox (NSFW pictures of the characters i think it was called that) which was pretty cool thanks to the creator for making this

[@ryanbui2046]

The creator DOES draw lewds and straight up hentai, but they never demean the characters they create. It sorta just establishes them more as adults and actually puts backing to the jokes which I like. Overall it’s an interesting way to read manga and the themes and wholesomeness really come through regardless

[@iamkartvya29]

Why were you on nhentai in the first place

A lot of this authors stuff is on hentai sites, despite being wholesome and legit Mangas, cuz he likes to add H scenes that don't get published along with the actual story.

[@aqeefizzudin1062]

I felt sorry for Kyoko for she got assaulted by her seniors leaving her traumatized and broken. I know how it feels like to be traumatized and I almost killed myself and even others but the thing is, when you never expect it to go that was but it did and it left you broken. It's heartbreaking. I never did experience is myself but I've heard from some friends of their friends experience getting assaulted by her boyfriend's friends then got disowned by her parents for it. It's sad Though Kyoko is doing better now and changing her life for the better. I really love this comic and how realistic it is. She doesn't just go straight to Touma and loved him instead, they build they relationship little by little being supportive for each other until they can be happy together

[@aqeefizzudin1062]

In late part of the story, I felt so bad for Kyoko for she was assaulted by group of people. I know how it felt like though I never experience it myself. Trauma really hits you know (I've really only experience trauma and tried killing myself so anyways..) and it's heartbreaking if you actually thought about it. You didn't expect it to ever go this way but it does and it breaks you leaving you traumatized and paranoid. It's saddening how true this is. Though there is always redemption chance. Kyoko is sweet nevertheless Edit : Yeah and I recommend you to confess to your crush if she's a good type so that you will not regret never asking at the least. Because sometimes when they might have nowhere to go, you might be there for them or they might just think about what you confessed and can't get it out of their mind

The M4/M4A1 5.56mm Carbine is a lightweight, gas operated, air cooled, magazine fed, selective rate, shoulder fired weapon with a collapsible stock. It is now the standard issue firearm for most units in the U.S. military. Equipped with a shorter barrel, collapsible stock and detachable carrying handle (with a built-in accessory rail) it provides soldiers operating in close quarters with improved handling and the capability to rapidly and accurately engage targets at extended range, day or night. A shortened variant of the M16A2 rifle, the M4 carbine provides the individual soldier operating in close quarters the capability to engage targets at extended range with accurate, lethal fire. The M4-series Carbine achieves over 80% commonality with the M16A2 Rifle and replaces all M3 .45 caliber submachine guns, and selected M9 pistols and M16 rifles.

I really hope the author makes a Kintsugi reference given the title and what the old couple said. Even if it's in our face by buying or making a kintsugi pot for them to share tea with one night. Thank you stranger for introducing me.

[@HakiKingEntertainment]

[@user-yj3dn4zd1l]

This was a massive w. It gives insight into both perspectives of the relationship, it gives an inside view of it, and it actually shows you that you can see the other person as a human being with feelings rather than an object of sex. It also shows that sex is a bonus, not the objective. Massive w.
