I have to say, after this mini-arc, Genjirou is really an interesting character. His past really goes a long way in explaining his behavior in the earlier chapters. Not bad for a character who's schtick was initially just a lot of Overprotective Dad jokes.
Reaction Image RepositoryIt's been awhile since I'm waiting for the series to finish/letting the chapters build before reading it in one go but-
Have you guys seen Bryan Lee O'Malley's Snotgirl? It looks like a good comic book from the guy what did the Scott Pilgrim comics, but I bring it up because the main character bears a pretty striking resemblence to Youko. Like down to the hairstyle and color of hair.
"Curry killed the pussy hoping that I could kill the hate in you" - Curry, D. "TABOO | TA13OO." TA13OO, PH, 2018The parallels are real, but the character design is just, like 1:1. Like, straight up Youko in a western comic.
ooh, getting close to the finish line. Nice.

"Curry killed the pussy hoping that I could kill the hate in you" - Curry, D. "TABOO | TA13OO." TA13OO, PH, 2018How is it going? It has been a while since the last time I read Jitsu Wa (or the forums), around chapter 100, did an Archive Binge and I'm really happy how the story went on..
Hey, a new chapter!

Well, I wasn't expecting that. Good to know that Asahi is a good dad, if nothing else. Also holy crap where did she come from?
Reaction Image RepositoryWell, that was sure something. What's her deal anyway? She's never really said why she's so dead set against trying to make Asahi fail.
Reaction Image RepositoryI suppose so. It just seems weird how gung-ho she is about it even though as far as I can tell it doesn't actually affect her personally in any way.
Reaction Image RepositoryTook them long enough. We needed some silliness. Also I love how Shiho managed to identify future-Nagisa by her butt.

And with her skirt on, no less!
Chapter 182: in case you had forgotten Masuda was the master of Mood Whiplash. And the cameraman is kind of a douche.
Oh wow, that reveal was something else. You know it's serious when even Shirayuki is shocked.
Reaction Image RepositoryYou know, I didn't even bother to ask that question. Because the answer is obvious: it's Shiho. Why wouldn't she be wearing that?
Also, I think I have whiplash now from all the mood changes.
Reaction Image RepositoryI think this might be my favorite instance of Tactical Rock–Paper–Scissors
The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside. Couldn't keep in it, heaven knows I tried.
Give up, Shirayuki. You can't win this fight.
Still, it's nice to see a side of Youko we hadn't really seen before. For once we see her have compassion for someone (who isn't Asahi) rather the other way round.

I love how Youko managed to make more progress in one chapter just by being nice (and stupid) than Asahi could with actual planning.

This line was both hilarious, heartwarming and totally badass in the context. Way to go Akane. <3
