Suzuki Masami is dead
  • With all of Claw's resources, including Hatori who can find people by searching through security cameras, it's completely implausible that Masami managed to hide for four years. It's even more implausible that she never once messaged Fukuda asking him when he was planning on bringing Sho to her like she promised. Masami may have fallen into a deep depression towards the end but she still loved her children.

Mob and Teru will meet again
  • They did promise to never forget each other after all and Mob always keeps her promises.

Shimazaki and Shibata hooked up at some point
  • Shibata knows that Shimazaki talks in his sleep. That little look he and Minegishi exchanged when he revealed as such says it all.

Suzuki Touichirou's parents were abusive
  • Partially Confirmed. He talks about how his father would spar with him without armor on when he messed up in kendo. That's all that he revealed. He has said, before, that he doesn't remember much about his past possibly due to trauma. He also has said that he respected his father and would never have dreamed of treating his father like Sho treated him. His own parents being abusive would explain the way he treats Sho. The way he's so distant from him, the way he sees nothing wrong with beating and belittling him, and also the fact that he paradoxically gives Sho no real sense of rules or boundaries.

Minegishi and Suzuki Touichirou will hook up
  • Touichirou has a crush on them and they have said, before, that they would lay down on that wire for Mob. He's been getting creepier and creepier with Mob as the years have gone by and Minegishi would never let anything bad happen to her.

Masami was never in love with Fukuda
  • In the four years that they've been apart she never once tried to contact him. When they started their relationship she was in a very bad place emotionally. She was in a deep depression, her husband was distant, and she latched onto the only other man in her life that showed her affection. She completely ghosts Fukuda after she leaves despite the constant emails he sends her.

Fukuda has stolen Suzuki's girlfriends before
  • Suzuki and Fukuda lived together through college and when reminiscing about those times he says that he never could keep a girlfriend past the point at which he brought her home, hence why he started taking women to love hotels. Fukuda has shown that he sees nothing wrong with cheating and breaking up Suzuki's relationships if he feels that he's been justified. He was the instigator when it came to Masami and it's not implausible to think that he's done this before.

Suzuki and Fukuda Experimented in College beyond what we've explicitly seen
  • Suzuki has no problem kissing Fukuda either as an experiment or to prove a point so who's to say that they didn't take it further at some point? Suzuki has said, before, that after getting high for the first time he woke up in Fukuda's clothes and Fukuda has said that there are a lot of things that they've agreed to never speak of again.

Minegishi and Shimazaki are going to break up
  • As much as they love each other they have some incompatibilities. Shimazaki wants kids, Minegishi doesn't. Shimazaki wants to spend his life with Minegishi and Minegishi hates commitment. A big theme of the story is that you can't force a relationship. Shimazaki is the jealous type and Minegishi can't stand commitment. Minegishi and Shimazaki may be sexually compatible, and they may be in love, but that doesn't mean that they'll be able to make a romantic relationship work.

Suzuki is going to have another child
  • Suzuki has spoken at length at this point about how much he wants to have children with Shiori. This coupled with his love of the pullout method will probably result in another child, possibly even a boy since he's so unhappy with how Sho turned out.

Shibata actually did hug a kid to death
  • Shibata is always very quick to say that the child he hugged back when he worked at Wee World went on to live a normal life...but if that's the case then why did he not only get fired from his job but also had no other choice following that incident than to join Claw? He's also very reluctant to even pick up Mukai, instead preferring to have her stand in the palms of his hands.

Shimazaki is going to try and date Mob
  • As of chapter 605 Shimazaki is confirmed to have a crush on Mob. He's started referring to their outings as dates, kissing her cheeks and face, and also he's started resting his hand on her lower back. Knowing Shimazaki he's going to take this too far and proposition her if not ask her to be his girlfriend.

Sho and Emmy are going to break up
  • As of chapter 607 Sho has become comfortable with how he feels about Ritsu and has even made plans to go and see him. Sho has very strong opinions against cheating, and he's very angry at his father for cheating on his mother, so being the person that he is Sho will make the pragmatic choice to dump the girl he's been stringing along for two years.
