OMG this is actually NOT an unhappy rant as I've had for the last 10 chapters or so *A*
krysyuy is right, this chapter makes me a really happy Hikaru-fangirl XD!!!

*melts*
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He looks so confident!
I don't remember the last time he smiled like that....maybe just that date chapter...So precious <3 Good for you Hikaru. Don't give up!!!
A little part of me screams TamaHika!!!! haha.... Just because Hikaru thinks too much about him.
BUT I am really worried about Haruhi's reaction. Immediate rejection after all that mental drama with Hikaru for the last 20 chapters or something!!!! Just like Kaoru???? Hatori better not disappoint me since this is the first chapter in a while I actually enjoy!!! DX
Oh yea. Watching Gaia softball game was really fun!! Suck we lost by 1 pt!!!! ARGH!!! So close TOT;; I never been so into sport since highschool tennis! XD
Okay! *works on doujinshi more motivated*
EDIT: Progress for Screentone: 20/51.

I wonder how I managed to continue this series for so long.

But yes, I'm glad you're happy about the latest chapter
Remember the good times when they were worrying about soccer (or whatever it was) matches? and Hatori was focusing on developing friendship instead? I wonder whether it'll ever be like that again.
Like you, my interest in Haruhi is almost non existant. What I"m curious about now is 1. Will Hikaru be happy when all is said and done.. and also
Tamaki's 'trauma/whatever'. Alot of people think it's tragic that he feels like falling in love hurts other people. In my opinion....
GUESS WHAT - In love triangles falling in love results in people getting hurt. Cold hard facts people, the sooner you face the truth the better.
So I am glad that at the very least he acknowledges Hikaru's pain in some form. What I'm worried though, is that Hatori may just have Hikaru give up and thus.. Tamaki doesn't have to deal with the truth. He'll go back to the 'oh isn't life great and full of sunshine and sparkle fluff!!11eleveny' state of mind
Yeah, for you, Tamaki.

It feels like another Harry Potter shipping case if you as me.

Same here D: I think it's the Hika love.
no subject
There's a few theories that I have
1. She just wanted too (bah)
2. She knew that it would sell better (>.<)
Sorry, but in my opinion, you really should never compromise the integrity of your work for money
Of course, good luck trying to convince the majority of fans that Haruhi has changed XD. You won't find much luck. Believe me, I know
It feels like another Harry Potter shipping case if you as me.
oh man, I just consider my self lucky that I didn't get sucked into the shipping wars then until .. the 6th book.. I was disappointed.. but at the very least I didn't feel like I wasted so many years invested into something that wasn't really there.
But out of curiosity, did you support any ships there or were only witness to the wars that went about?
no subject
2. She knew that it would sell better (>.<)
If one was the case, I'd cry. Doing that is cruel to the fandom and character itself.
Selling better is nice but shoot, killing what all those volumes built up for her personality isn't so wise...
But out of curiosity, did you support any ships there or were only witness to the wars that went about?
I shipped the obvious. Harry/Hermione. I can't stand what she did to the fans in volume six. I almost killed the book. She not only ruined a well-developed relationship, overly loved by the fandom and the movie itself; she also killed the chance of hope for any open-ending with her stupid epilogue.
On the side, I ship a guilty Draco/Hermione because the tension? That's pretty interesting.
I saw the ship wars and strayed away from them. That was when HarryHermione seemed as if it was going to win the RonMione shippers. Then again, I'd rather not get into that again...;\

The problem is, most of the fans don't think that what Hatori has done is bad thing. The don't see Haruhi as becoming a typical shoujo heroine. No, it's character development. It's perfectly normal to get nervous like that, they say. and oh yeah.. couldn't forget the fact that Haruhi blushing is CUTE, right?
Yeah, that's pretty much the standard response..among others
Interesting though, not sure if you know this, but Hatori has actually commented on her introduction of romance (I remember you mentioning this, gem2niki, and someone else has posted the quote at the Frop
The story of Host Club has been progressing at a leisurely pace. But now it's starting to get more romantic! In the beginning I couldn't wait to start drawing the romantic stuff, but now that I'm 10 volumes in, I wonder if I will be able to introduce change in the characters' relationships and tie everything together nicely. I'm really scared!!
Yeah, I liked Harry/Hermione too. Gah. huge mess that was.. would you be surprised if I said I liked it after the Interview of Doom and HBP? I was hoping for a spectacular twist. I think I have to stop giving authors too much credit >_
