Tomo-chan

Oh motherfucker are you ready for a middle school arc?

Thank god it didn't start a Carol arc.

This arc is so good.

This is going to end like Mysterious Girlfriend X isn't it?

Disappointment.

nothing can be more disappointing than that
it's literall already ahead of that game

Oh my! No hiatus!

Exactly. There's no way this will be more disappointing.

Yeeesss!!!

I've been wondering about that "ignoring tomo first year, dating misuzu, and resuming back to tomo after their breakup" for years, literally.

That does not look like Jun in Panel Two. Who is that imposer?

You mean a completely platonic ending? Yeah, probably. It's funny when porn artists opt in to do manga but then don't even like drawing pantyshots.

That's a cute boy(girl)

Young Jun and Young Tomo. At first glance I thought Tomo was Senpai

HOLY FUCK, PRE-YEAR APART INCIDENT INCOMING!!!!1

Thanks for pointing that out because I thought that was Kohsuke also.

no wonder he didn't notice her for so long

it was the boiling frog effect until her tits started poking him in the back

So will this be the Jun-Discovers-Tomo's-a-Girl arc?

That is probably why Jun had that same reaction when Tomo introduced Senpai to him. He just doesn't know anymore. So who can blame him.

P.S. my bet is he saw her boobs...

Tomo has never looked more like a boy than she does here

I would be down for that

The original joke with Kohsuke was that his name is feminine if I recall correctly. So at first Jun wasn't worried. Then he became worried when he learned that senpai is a man .

What chapter you think? I have no idea how far back that would be.

>genki Jun
I wonder what the fuck happened to him, and what happened in the year before he dated Misuzu

He is going to get sexually confused.

He was introduced in 40-50 I believe.

Would this be after or before Jun and Misuzu dated? If the latter then I wonder if it's going to be brought up.

early to mid 100s

He was like that at the start of the manga.

Before, as this seems to be when Jun still believed Tomo was a boy

That's how Jun acted with boy-Tomo, I can't pinpoint the exact moment he stopped but I think it was around that "dated" where they went to karaoke

It was when he took Tomo to the Beach.

>Beach
Nah. Remember when Tomo didn't wear spats that one time? Jun was bent over covering his heart boner

Who's ready for crippling lifelong anxiety?

It's not about readiness, got it already.

I'm ready to learn about why Jun avoided Tomo for a year and then dive right into them both finally admitting their feelings properly for each other.

Is it canon time?

...

...

>guy collapses in front of her
>she only thinks about how it hurt her
Why do we like Tomo again? This is worst girl material.

Jun has acted this way since the very beginning of the series. I hope we eventually learn why he was acting this way. Dude was definitely fully aware that Tomo is a girl since middle school, or at least high school.
He sees her panties and is seemingly doubled over in pain. She already has low self esteem.

>she only thinks about how it hurt her
Have you even read the manga?

it's simple

>tfw main girl is best girl

>that 3rd panel

nigga, what?
she thought she looked awful and ridiculous

I just realized, did Tomo ever get those spats she wore back from Jun after Misuzu gave it to him? Does Jun still have that pair?

Honestly poor Tomo. She doesn't realize that Jun has been concealing a boner around her for hundreds of chapters now.

...

>I hope we eventually learn why he was acting this way. Dude was definitely fully aware that Tomo is a girl since middle school, or at least high school.
It's kind of sad, I had a doujin-type idea around this event which obviously I was never gonna get around doing, but now that we're getting around to finding the real reason I'm kind of bummed mine it's gonna get voided so there will be even less of a reason to do it.

he never had them in the first place

Yes. Although with a page every day, my memory may be a bit fuzzy on the details.
What is the extent of Tomo's feelings? Does she care about Jun, or does she simply want to be loved by Jun? Cause I can't remember an instance where she showed Jun her care and support. Taking the Gameboy back from bullies doesn't count because that was a pure bro moment, no romantic feelings involved.

Thanks
>Wouldn't it be frustrating
Fuck, need another page to understand.

Oh, it's about when they were in elementary school.

she have them to him

>Does she care about Jun?
>By the way, don't cite the chapter that really shows her caring for Jun
user please.

she was just holding them to foreshadow it for him
she gave them back to tomo the next day

I explained why, you fool.

I dont get it either. Maybe she realized her feelings

>it's lonely
What the hell does that mean? it better not be some b.s. fumita

>dropout
Thanks.

>lonely
what?

I want to say, that the pact she symbolized their friendship through the pact they've made. With Jun finally beating Tomo, the promise has been fulfilled and Tomo will have to give up the DS (friendship).

Only thing I can come up with now and I don't really believe it.

It's bullshit. Jun hears "I'm lonely" while Tomo means "its going to be lonely for you"

I don't quite fully understand myself,
I'll let it to the TLer

The only thing is, that also doesn't explain her lonely comment. Since this is middle school Tomo, I cannot think of why she would think she's lonely despite being equal by the two of them.

I don't get it.

Fuck... This is going to end badly.

By the next day they were already on gym clothes they never show either misuzu nor jun giving them back. but granted it's ambiguous if she gave them to him or kept them to herself (sneaky lesbian). either way who ever has them they're probably being used as fapping material.

>End badly
The only thing it will end in is knowledge.

Jesus this is not hard to get, Jun is out of her league now. She knows that from this point onwards she'll never be able to best him again because he's a guy and she's a girl. That's the point where it's obvious that their gender differences will cause a rift that will only widen with time, and she probably believes that this gap will end their friendship.

>end badly
>in the past

We are living in a world where people unironically think there are no differences between men, and women. Liberal brainwashing keeps society down.

Maybe because he's going to keep getting stronger without her, since she knows he's going to surpass her since he's a guy? My best guess.

He's a big guy

Grasping at straws here. We'll know what she meant soon enough.

they spent a year apart despite being neighbors over what's about to happen, so it's gonna end badly and then it will get better.

why do you think Jun's still not fucking her? this arc is why.

I thought she meant that it was lonely being at the top and now that Jun beat her once she can share the top spot with someone she deems worthy to fight.

No no, we're explaining just some past stuff. After this is done we'll be closer to the fucking.

Tomo has a look of resignation, and the whole girl marathon being shorter thing, and her giving back the DS. That's not grasping at straws it's just pointing out the obvious of what this arc is hammering down for a while.
Which is odd considering that understanding our differences can only improve the ways in which we relate to each other instead of pretending it doesn't exist. In this case Jun's incessant denial that tomo is a girl has been a hindrance from day 1.

but she constantly showed that she still wins against him in several times (like a race)

Oh yeah time for another overly serious drawn out arc where we learn nothing we didn't already know and also nothing actually happens to the plot at all

>
There's no way that we come away from this without knowing why jun's so wound up
it's something we clearly have no idea about

We literally don't know why jun avoided Tomo in middle school.

Wasn't it because they went to different middle schools?

Was gonna do a full color page, but I'm beat, sorry.

Well I mean we can guess, like it probably had something heavily to do with her domming him when they were kids, but that doesn't really give a complete picture.

oh and the shota thing ofc

No, it was around that time that Jun was telliint Tomo
>Dude isn't the skirt too much?

okay, so as we knew, tomo's depressed about the gender gap thing, but as we're finding out, it really hit jun harder. which is understandable.
I think it compounds with the fact that he's just finding out that she's a girl, and that's what this arc is going to cover.
I really hope it explains his fear of women too, if it's not involved in all that we're doomed to another flashback arc somehow

>had something heavily to do with her domming him when they were kids
DAMNIT I DIDN'T SAVE THE PICTURE HOLY FUCK

Other coloranon here. Why red?

>punished jun
>a fallen retard

>Giygas colors

it jumps at you so it lets me see where I've missed stuff or made a mistake, plus it's red.

She kinda looks like Sempai

Yeah, that was my impression before seeing babyface Jun. I was thinking "Why is Jun kicking Kounichi's ass again?"

Where is TL?

Read the thread.

>I really hope it explains his fear of women too
Idea I had:
>Tomo and jun spend time playing outside
>get caught in a storm so they run over to their nearest house to shelter, which for these purpose it's tomo's.
>Tomo says they should shower before they get sick, she's planning to let jun go first as a good host, but Jun still ignoring Tomo-chan is a girl tells her not not be a prude and they can get in together.
>Tomo freaks out a little bit, but sees Jun's doesn't seem to mind and so convinces herself that maybe they're still young enough that it's ok.
>Jun's in the bath when tomo comes in and he realizes lots of shit down.
>Still manages to keep his shit together, and thinks 'I'm in this situation already might as well enjoy it and perv a little'.
>Akemi gets back from grocery shopping or something and realizes they're in the bath together, flips her shit out.
>Tomo, who's managed to convince herself of it says they're still kids so it's ok, Jun tries to play along to save his ass but tomom sees through him
>Decides the best way to teach them a lesson is with some mild ptsd by making the situation even more awkward
>Says, says she also got some rain so she'll be joining them since they're kids and all.
>Freak out but also oyakodon
>Jun can't hide a boner and tomom knows it so she spends the whole time busting his balls while he does his best not to let Tomo notice.
>Eventually Tomo finishes and leaves, allowing tomom give jun a pice of her mind, tells him she knows he's a nice kid but he better not let his hormones on the driver's seat again.
>Asks if she's gonna tell on his parents, says she'll keep it between them, and she knows what the proper punishment should be as she leaves.
>Before jun gets a chance to leave too, Gorou enters to take a bath finding jun there and him having to explain why he took a bath with his wife and daughter.
>turns out Gorou is so pure he buys Jun’s explanation

There, it has Jun finding out Tomo's a girl plus explains his issues with women, and kind of explains his opus dei tendency to punish himself any time he feels his hormones are taking over.
Senpai was always kind of a gender bent Tomo, a girly boy to her tomboy.
