I mean, you can probably assume they get it on at some point in in the interim because I doubt Chitoge's job training involves her literally never seeing her boyfriend as though he lives on Mars or something.

You say this, but we already establised in universe that Raku, Chitoge, and Marika's moms all don't live with them, they almost never see them, and they along with the dads/husbands have basically no relationship with them. If Chitoge doesn't move away for work that would basically betray the theme of the series, that if your mom/wife is around you're a loser (see Onodera and Imouto)

In honor (?) of Bleach ending, I have compiled together a list of the best chapter names - because in these times, it would be good for us to remember that Kubo was always crazy you wouldn't be remiss for thinking he was making Dance Dance Revolution songs instead of manga chapters. I'm not even gonna front, half of these would make excellent band names. I claim Tug Your God Out.

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
My favorite part of Deicide is when, in one of these threads, someone complained about how the arc was dragging out and that Gin should just "Decide" already. Someone else had to point out that Deicide is a real word.

I think this one wins the award for most engrish chapter title:

My Hero Academia ch101

Some needed variation.

Murenase! Shiiton Gakuen ch7

She's not lacking in ambition. Too bad she's such a poor leader.

Hozuki-san Chi no Aneki + Imouto ch14

All because of longer hair.

The saddest thing about Bleach ending is the last arc started 4 or 5 years ago and the ending is still gonna be rush because Kubo spent a years worth of chapters on giant luchadors, zombies and imagination battles

Sums up the problem with Bleach. There's just a severe lack of story or motivation behind the battles that are happening on the screen. All the matchups are random.

It turns into to straight up smut, right? I watched the OVAs and hated it. I should have researched it further, but I was interested after seeing that it was a slice of life show. The only episode I liked was the anime one, but only slightly.

I'd argue the manga is straight smut from the beginning. What it turns into is... a rant about stuff.

Never has a chapter name so perfectly summed up my feelings on a series. Also I reread it and remembered Quincy zombies and that cockroach/quincy girl-who-might-have-a-penis-wait-a-minute-that-was-never-cleared-up-was-it were a thing which promptly caused me to say "what the hell" out loud. It was a good chapter and by good I mean in the sense that it didn't have a cowboy quincy go-go-boy turn into a Salvador Dali flamingo only to be killed by that guy with the weird haircut and the square sword that makes things weight more whose name I don't even care about enough to google.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Nisekoi

Chitoge: "I am so happy we finally got together. However, I must IMMEDIATELY LEAVE FOR SEVERAL YEARS for extremely vague reasons."

Raku: "You can't even finish high school....?"

Chitoge: "NO I HAVE TO GO NOW"

Raku: "Can I have a kiss before you leave so we can resolve the manga?"

Chitoge: *runs away and boards helicopter*

Onodera: "...well, you know I'm still single."

Raku: "Nah, fuck that shit, I made my decision."

Onodera: "I respect your decision and I am happy for you and Chitoge. Now I will silently pine for you for eternity and die a lonely spinster."

The best part of the "I'M OFF TO DISNEYLAND" thing in Nisekoi is that this whole time they were basically making travelling to the US the international equivalent of going to the store to grab some instant noodles so you'd think she being there would mean jack shit because she can basically just come back to Japan in weekends a the snap of a finger as far as this series is concerned.

But nope, work shit fuck.

I mean, Raku's family is super rich and so its Chitoge's and they don't even explain what in the fuck this job is, nor why it would be even vaguely desirable for Chitoge to have a job like her mom's when its pretty apparent her mom is a shitty mom, a shitty person, and is perpetually absent from the life of her family.

I mean, as far as MY PLANET NEEDS ME exits go, this one is pretty out of left field even if its obvious its just the Toradora plot device.

I remember when this happened in Ichigo 100%.

Still the greatest love triangle OF ALL TIME.

Oh yeah, now I remember getting pissy that the ponytail chick didn't win

My first experience in "losing" I suppose. Also the first harem manga I ever read with an actual ending, I should probably reread that to cleanse my palate from Nisekoi and whatever the soap opera fuck the GE ending author is doing right now.

I hope Komi is setting up for one final troll, but I suspect he's just gonna ride the cliche wave right to the bitter end no matter what.

Nah the MY PLANET NEEDS ME plot device was used and abused long before Toradora was ever a thing. Heck, the novel kind of subverted it when you think about it cause it was all set up to play it straight except it turned out she wasn't even gone for two months!

Of course JC Staff did their own thing so there's that.

I don't think I'd want to get hit by one of those balls. Also Misuzu is quite devious.

Maou-jou de Oyasumi 1 - 3

pretty funny story about a captured princess trying to sleep comfortably in the castle jail cell.

I wasn't suggesting Toradora invented it (it certainly didn't) its just the most obvious example to anime fans, I imagine (since Toradora was really popular). Lots and lots of series do it; they did the same shit in Ichigo 100.

My favorite instance of this was Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo where the MC starts as insufferable garbage, remains insufferable garbage before ans after hooking up with Shiina, and is treated like insufferable garbage throughout. By the end the author's solution to fixing his deeply flawed unlikeable main character was to break the main couple up for no reason and arbitrarily time skip four years and poof, our MC is now capable and mature and responsible and will totally be a great partner to the main girl for life!
