Until then, I'm gonna look forward to the IceKaguya Movie, Aka putting his full focus on OnK, and his new oneshot next year. Gonna have to do full reread in the future when I get time, an relive it again. Īnd with that, I give the series an overall 9/10, and would recommend it to anyone. Though now with the spin-off news, the fandom copium worked lol, I'm not overly upset about his promises, he can take some time off, recharge and give us those events.

But after that, we got the Osaragi saga (weakest in the series), Shinomiya arc(which I covered before in the thread), IshiMiko finale, and some things that were promised by Aka and not delivered (ie Freshman year summer and training chaps). Before that, I'd have given the 227 chaps or so a perfect 10. Weirdly enough, this happened after Aka took a month hiatus. I did say most because just like all series, Kauya does have misses. I also very much appreciate Aka giving many characters final sendoffs. The fireworks, Ishigami's past and relay, Kaguya's stuco photo, Cultural festival confession, IceKaguya, Kaguya-Hayasaka, Ishigami suffering rejection, ABCDE Sex, Chika happy for Kaguya's relationship, and moonlight confession. Hayasaka is Best Girl is a phrase echoed in the community, Papagane transcends reality, Maki has the masses praying for her happiness, and Kei is one of the best imouto-types you'll see.Īka also for the most part delivers on peak moments too, that hit all the right emotional notes. Miyuki is one of best romcom MCs you'll ever find, Kaguya not just in romcom, but overall is a top-tier female MC and on my shortlist for favorite, Chika is chaos incarnate, without peer in comic relief, and Ishigami is beloved by the masses, love to see many invested in him. The cast and character writing is top-tier. The meta references, shitposts, and simply being able to relate to many of the jokes. I'm super big on comedy, and Kaguya-sama has very few peers in this regard (Grand Blue), hitting all the right notes for me personally. Kaguya-sama is one of my favorite series ever, my most enjoyable binge-read, and imo, cemented itself as the top of its genre. I'm definitely sad to see it go, but also want to celebrate for what it is. Lots of great images, the double spread congratulations, Kaguya turning to see Miyuki, her holding the diploma, 'lets graduate together', the 'How Cute' panel, and the color panels signifying the end of an era and them walking to the next chapters of their life. The surprise for Miyuki by Kaguya mirrors Miyuki's surprise at the Cultural Festival. Most of the big events and personal growth happened at Shuchiin, as shown by some of the images like the lake where Miyuki fell in love, so it's appropriate to close it out here. There was speculation of a wedding in the community, but this feels right.

Kaguya sama love is war aka akasaka
