Okay, let's be real. We all read Kaguya-sama: Love Is War for the chaos, right?
And maybe, just maybe, for a little bit of that sweet, sweet payoff.
New Chapter, New Chaos?
So, the latest chapter dropped. Did it deliver the drama? Arguably, yes.
Did it deliver *exactly* what I wanted? That's a different story, and probably an unpopular opinion brewing.
I'm not saying it was bad! Just... maybe predictable?
The Predictability Paradox
See, Kaguya and Shirogane are finally together. Hooray! Confetti! But now what?
The manga kind of needs conflict, doesn't it? Or at least, ridiculous misunderstandings?
Are they going to date peacefully and hold hands? That's cute and all, but where's the fun in that?
I’m here for the elaborate schemes and mental warfare!
Bring Back the Shenanigans!
Remember when Chika Fujiwara would randomly burst into a scene and ruin everything?
Good times. Those were truly good times. I miss those shenanigans!
I’m not saying I want them to break up, absolutely not! I just want them to struggle in a hilarious way.
Think: "How do you share a ramen bowl without accidentally touching hands?" level struggle.
Is This Just Me?
Maybe I'm alone in this. Maybe everyone else is perfectly content with the established relationship and character growth.
And that's fine! I'm happy for you. Really, I am.
But deep down, I kind of miss the days when they were both desperately trying to manipulate each other into confessing their love.
The sheer absurdity of it all was just so…delicious.
The Inevitable Graduation
And with graduation looming, you know things are going to get emotional.
I’m already stocking up on tissues. Seriously, a whole box.
But is that emotion going to be mixed with the usual Kaguya-sama brand of comedic gold?
That's what I'm hoping for, and honestly a little nervous about.
Unpopular Opinion Conclusion
So, yes, the new chapter was fine. Good, even. I smiled. I chuckled.
But am I secretly yearning for the return of utter, unadulterated chaos? Also yes.
Don't @ me. Just let me have my unpopular opinion. Maybe Ishigami will finally get a win. That will be a happy ending to all of us!
Because after all, isn't life just a series of elaborate schemes and romantic misunderstandings? At least, that's what Kaguya-sama: Love Is War has taught me.
And maybe, just maybe, that's why I love it so much.
