The difference between this and the previous one armed incident is that the one with carol in did not have a big sound effect in the background. Context is everything and the context in this case is clearly a hug. However i dont know what manga that panel is taken from, and as such there may be further evidence that can be presented in future to make me change my mind vis a vis this being a picture of a hug whereas the one with carol was not.

it's from mousou telepathy. it's a romcom daily comic like tomo but imo a lot better written.

I don't really think this series needed a final boss to be honest.

it kind of bothers me how in the grand scheme of things the manga was just a nothingburger. like it gives me this existentialist anxiety and im not sure why.
That's a normal reaction to a long-term investment going to waste. This manga went on for over 4 years, after all.

All I ever expected from this manga as it went on was light comedy, cute faces, and Carol being Carol and it checked all three of those boxes well enough, so I don't feel like it was a waste of time.

This. It was a fun little romp that had some great moments. And the hiatus plaque it got near the end made it actually ending less painful.

Some journeys are First Class flights on the best airlines, other journeys are cholera-infested Oregon Trails. You can still live for the journey while preferring the the former over the latter.

There's still a few pages exclusive to the tank, aren't there.

So who knows, maybe we'll get like extremely quick glimpses into what everyone's doing by the end.

I feel like you may have been way too invested in some weird theoretical ending if you consider the latter an accurate metaphor here.

The comic was ok.

Misuzu was the best character and her resolution with Tomo felt flat so that was probably the biggest disappointment but other than that it was fine.

Is "Carol gets hugged" truly such a "weird theoretical ending"?

We still have the volume pages to go, we need to discuss all eight pages of Carol getting hugged and then laugh at Namtab before we can exit for good.
