Is Gekkan shoujo actually that popular even after 10 years? I find it’s hard to believe, the risk of not reaching estimated sale is there, so why make not just 1, or 2, but 3 nendroid? (I think Nozaki nendroid comes later).

Wouldn’t time like these would be suited for a season 2 shoutout?

I just joined this sub so forgive me if this was already asked or is a dumb question. But has anyone sent fan letter to Tsubaki sensei. I was holding off reading GSNK cause of the limited amount of chaps, but after reading a single chap, I practically blew through everything quickly. I absolutely love this Manga, the comedy within it is top tier. So sad it doesn't have a bigger fan base like it deserves. Just wanted to ask what's the process or steps to send fan letters. Through an email if that's allowed or hard copy. Or even where I can shop for merch online to show support. Again, sorry if this is a dumb question.

I don’t know if he should realize his feeling or if he should realize sakura’s feeling.

Him having feelings for Sakura could be easy to write, because it could progress like a normal shoujo manga.

I think having him realize Sakura’s feeling is very interesting, but difficult to handle, one of my idea is for him to realize her feeling, a burst of recollecting memories from the past of why she’s so clingy to him and how could he has failed to realize, I don’t know how he’ll take it, to handle such overwhelming info, now that he has connected all the dots, does he get emotional with it? Or he just absolutely stunned?

One thing I like to see is that after he realize her feeling, and then Sakura approach him at the class and say “nozaki kun!”and ask him if he’s ready to go back home, Nozaki now look at her differently, she’s cuter and cuter, Sakura ask him what’s wrong? He said it’s nothing, but this very time, it’s Sakura failed to notice Nozaki’s change (might be because she was busy with other thoughts), as she turn around and walk, Nozaki is now putting in the perspective as the person who’s looking at the back of the person they like, just like Sakura always did, but he debate with his feeling, he could feel guilty, maybe doesn’t know how to approach the matter, or maybe question his feeling (so that the manga doesn’t end just yet), either way, I think this might be near the end of the manga, I wonder once they became couple, would the manga still have reason to continue?

As for season 2 ending, I think we could end at the chapter >!where Nozaki notice his heart beat a little when Sakura overwhelming protest and say she want to have the person she love for her alone and all!< it could be a great end there, what do you think?

Note: I initially posted this under the wrong account, sorry.

What character combinations would you like to see (or more of)? (Can be more than 2 characters)

Miyako and Mikoshiba when paired up are really fun. Though I would like to see her paired up with Hori and/or Waka. We haven't seen them interact onscreen, and it would be fun to see the other manga team members interact with her. Especially Hori, who they might share in their mutual confusion on how Nozaki writes shoujo romance manga.

It would also be neat to see Ken actually talk to the assistants. I think it's implied some of them have at least met him at Nozaki's house, but I don't think we ever see them together onscreen, aside from Sakura, and iirc they don't talk to each other. (Not including the anthology)

While I’m aware that GSNK is mainly comedy and few romance, I mostly disagree with Miyako’s ship and Seo’s ship.

I’ll talk about Seo’s ship first because I am least disagree with it, I find the Lorelei dynamic between Wakamatsu and Seo is interesting, cute and funny, but never see them as couple, they just felt like big sis and lil bro to me.

As for Miyako though… I don’t really see her and Seo’s brother together, although it’s seems that the wind has the ship sailed, but I don’t agree with the ship, I just think the brother just aren’t good enough for Miyako, maybe like the mix of Nozaki and Hori senpai, that person is a normal person, but is mature and funny, if Miyako is the mother in the group, then that person makes you feels like he’s the father in the group, Seo’s brother gave none of it.

I think the ships will be sail by the end to please the fans, but at the same time I think some ships are best to leave vague, yet I can’t be selfish because I wouldn’t want vague answer for nozaki and chiyo, so I can’t be biased even though I am biased.

So, in the most part, I agree with majority of the ship, perhaps there is something in them that I did not comprehend just yet, so I would like to know more from other fans.

I still can’t get over episode 12, if I were her, that laugh is more like coping and dying inside, but I really, REALLY, need a chiyo win in manga, or else I’m gonna cry for her

This is one of the best rom- com series where side characters have so much depth. I really hope we get a new season.

I read CashMoneyChiyo's scans of GSNK on MangaDex. Got through vol. 15 and realized that they've started posting vol. 16 but passed over the vol. 15 omakes. Anyone know where I can find them?

My head cannons:

Nozaki: does not attend college, manga-ka (obvi)

Sakura: social sciences —> office job(?)

Mikoshiba: health care —> nurse (I feel this in my bones)

Mayu: a modern, slightly unconventional sort of job

Seo: ???

Wakamatsu: business —> office job

Kashima: acting(?) —> actor/public figure(?)

Hori: something normal but STEM-y(?)(correct me if I’m wrong but I think it’s perpetually autumn in the manga rn, wishful thinking but I’d love a Hori entrance exam chapter if it’s ever winter!)

Took me by surprise my first read ! (Chpt 107 btw)

1. a long time ago I would start watching anime blindly, just chose based on the title and art mostly. and this was a year after the anime came out too, but my blind 1st impression/expectation of GSNK was that Nozaki had a new girlfriend every week or month. because the english alternative name was Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun. I think the poster could also somehow be interpreted like that too, at least to my middle school mind who had barely watched any anime and had 0 knowledge of Japan and manga before thought so. I was really into reverse harem back then too so I jumped in expecting Nozaki to be a heart-breaking player and at least 5 girls pining after him but I was so wrong. We do have players in GSNK tho (shoutout to mikokashi) but no heartbreaks

2. re watching kimi ni todoke s1 right now and hearing Nozaki's va say wonderfully sweet things as the character Ryu from Kimi ni Todoke keeps making laugh. Nozaki is dense and ridiculously goofy when it comes to love but Ryu can be so straightforward and patient at the same time when it comes to love. He seems to be more knowledgeable about love unlike Nozaki lmao I love Nozaki's VA! I can't believe Nozaki is the voice of all those Gojo edits hahahaha just goes to show how Nakamura Yuuichi's range! Lastly, I must jest and say Kimi Ni Todoke is probably Let's Love's rival with Let's Love not even being a rival for KNT bahaha the soft little butterflies I'm getting from KNT are too much (in a good way)

Yuzuki and Kogure (from the My Melody anime) are both voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro. this is hilarious to me specifically

So the other week I couldn't believe my eyes when I checked Amazon and discovered volume 14 was finally out. With the way 13 ended, I was very much looking forward to reading it. However, 14 just goes right on like nothing ever happened. What gives? Did the delay cause the English release to skip over something? Is there some magazine exclusive chapter somewhere? Did I read too much into the last page?

For anyone that doesn't remember, 13 ends with Nozaki starting to draw a picture of himself holding Sakura. He appears to be shaking as he stops drawing.

Me personally 'The Illustrators'

this has been haunting me and i keep seeing it pop up someone please save me from my agony
