Forum › My Girlfriend's Not Here Today discussion
Okay, main timeline is back, it's been 6 months holy shit
I'm gonna have to reread this once the middle has been filled in properly. It's gonna be a jamais vu-filled trip.
is it me or we just went full circle? like, is there even a point in revealing the cheating just to going back to it some chapter later
This is amazing. Everything is set up so well. Can't wait for the next one.

Oh my God yes! Such delicious drama!
But the last scene with an angry Nanase has be a tiny bit worried. I love all this drama and toxicity but I don't want to see violence. Doesn't feel like that kind of manga though.
YEAHHHH !!!!!!
Yeah this is awesome
Fuuko is sly among other things but her words do have merit pointing out both Yuni & Nanase flaws (which they both choose to ignore) & as for short haired friend (forgot her name) needs to mind her own business so she kind of got what she deserved at that end.

Hahahah, Fuuko telling Yuni :
"...
but you're also an incorregible idiot who makes bad decisions."
No lie was said!!!

And she said a mama "punishes" naughty girls...so when will we get a chapter showing Mama Fuuko "punishing" her?

Things will be even more interesting. If she was using a fine nail before, she's about to take out the hammer now. The way she goaded Nanase and the discussion about actively leading Yuni. "Mommy" makes sense. I enjoy how the author has made this drama "fun," especially since we can feel how much she enjoys writing it based on her afterwards.

Oh damn, I really didn't see that final moment coming. Nanase's going dark now, huh? I'm wondering now how much that huge bruise on Yuni's leg was actually accidental, after seeing her throw her friend into the wall hard enough to knock her hairpin loose. Yuni was stopped wide out in the open when Nanase ran into her and there's no good excuse for why she did, except that Yuni in that moment was very obviously staring at Fuuko. I'd previously thought that Nanase wasn't bad, just a bad girlfriend for Yuni specifically. Now I'm not so sure.
Edit: double checked last chapter, Yuni wasn't even standing out of place when Nanase hit her. She was exactly where she was supposed to be, and Nanase should have been running in a different lane, since judging by the hair of the girl who told Yuni to get ready, Yuni and Nanase are on different teams. there's no reasonable way for Yuni looking at Fuuko to lead to a collision. I think it's actually possible Nanase kneed Yuni's leg on purpose in anger over seeing her checking out Fuuko, possibly not expecting the result to be so bad, since she seems genuinely surprised/worried in the immediate aftermath.

That's interesting, especially since Fuuko drew attention to how unlikely that crash was this chapter and Nanase didn't have much of a comeback except to stare her down.

Not buying it and I'll eat my shoe if this turns out to be the case. Because:
- I don't feel this is the type of manga that will make one of the characters abusive. It would immediately cast Nanase as a villain when the author has so far made all the characters simply "flawed".
- The author would have hinted more about it than what we've seen. This work is a lot of things, but "subtle" is rarely one of them. Not that being straightforward is a bad thing. (Or I suppose "gayforward" in this case :P)
Edit: Looking at the most recent chapter, I think the author is using the crash as symbolism for how Nanase treats Yuni in general (not paying enough attention to her and being oblivious to how she's feeling in general), with how Fuuko called her out directly on it with "Aren't you way too oblivious to what's in front of you? You're really not paying any attention to Yuni-chan at all, are you?"
2nd Edit: The "oblivious" comment can also be read as Fuuko taunting Nanase that she was oblivious when Yuni had previously been cheating on her and is now oblivious that Yuni is cheating on her again.

I came here to support this theory, I am not opposed to Nananse randomly committing acts of violence, but I think this interpretation suits the whole situation much better.

I would have entirely agreed with you before that scene of Nanase slamming her friend into the wall, sending enough force through her head to knock loose her hairpin. That's a pretty clear demonstration of her having anger and control issues imo. She's much more angry than she admits to herself, she's becoming more impulsive, and she's not great at moderating her strength instead of going all out.

Well another major element effecting my opinion is I simply want you to be wrong.
I'd be quite disappointed if this went the violence/abuse route because I'd just rather this story not go that dark.
I hope Nanase will apologize for her angry outburst because that was obviously out of line and she should immediately realize that.
Really sucks to be Yuki. Saw Yuni kissing Fuuko before and knows she is cheating, probably has some unrequited feelings for Nanase, and when she finally tries to hint at the cheating in her meek manner, Nanase is slamming her into walls.
It hurts my soul how this girl is being punished for doing the right thing...

You're just now realizing that Yuki has a crush on Nanase? It was already hinted that Yuki had that hots for her, not to mention a couple chapters ago she even suggested to Yuni should just break up with Nanase.

what a stupid development this was, why reset the progress after it was all in the open?

Well, she did just grab and slam her friend into a wall out of anger, so the violent outburst is already here and tied to her growing frustrations. But I do agree that it can go either way at this point, regarding the race.

I would also like this day to be a wakeup call for her rather than her passing a point of no return.

I hope we find out in a couple chapters that Yuki actually enjoyed that and wants Nanase to do that again.

You, Sir, are my kind of reader.
And where is a "comedy" tag? Cause it's hilarious xD
