Congratulations, you succeeded in dying a little faster.

Knowing the hero, it's more likely to be a practical joke.

This chapter was peak, as always.

Still, in going back over this manga from the start, I noticed. . .

The 'other' supermarket Sasaki keeps mentioning he used to go to.

IS IT REAL? WAS THERE A DIFFERENT ONE? IS HIS MEMORY SHOT BECAUSE OF YEARS WORKING FOR AN EXPLOITIVE COMPANY AND NOT GETTING ENOUGH SLEEP? IS IT RELATED TO HIS TRAUMA FROM WORK?!

I wonder if that will be revealed before, after, or concurrently with the moment Sasaki realizes Tayama is Yamada.

There's gotta be some part of Yamada that realizes Sasaki's covering for the kid.

Though I guess she might just be really close to things to and feeling too much to have that perspective right now.

Get.

Oh damn, got me feeling feelings.

That expectation when you put something of yourself out there like that is so real. Even though you want to enjoy yourself doing it, you can't help wondering what others think. And if the reaction is that there's no reaction. . . crushing.

She was mad disappointed he had a treat on him.

Also. . . cue the "We were this close to greatness" meme

Damn. A fucking hardlock is brutal.

Oh, he's barely gotten started.

Beware the Villainess

I love how well the mangaka knows the readers: we'd take these panels and run to hell with them. Most of us do even WITH the disclaimers.

HOLY FUCK that's crushing. I know I kept saying "No plan survives contact with the enemy" but that was brutal!

Miwa gonna need some quality pampering to console her after this.

CHAPERONE DATE TO THE PROM, UNCLE-NIECE KILLER COMBO, PLEASE!

It may not be a second chance, because it won't be the same as if they stayed together to begin with, but there are always other chances!

Honestly? Kudos to him for holding out this long.

Her safety was obviously his first issue with her joining them, but the distraction is an incredibly close second.

What a POS.

Oh, that's cold.

I dunno how to notify whoever's in charge of this sorta thing. . .

But there's a page missing. The last one, to be precise.

Braided twintails.

Bless.

This guildmaster is perhaps the most shameless I can remember seeing in a long time. And that's saying something.

So there's that.
