There's 2 chapters left. My bet is ch21 since she learns she can play for fun, she goes back to her trash deck that she loved at the start of the mango, and then ch22 is an epilogue with her finally getting a bf.

i like the term "roman or romance" cards to refer to shitty cards that can be really strong or a win condition in specific situations.

That's good, I was worried group drama had happened and they had stopped with releases.

It's pretty fun. Manaka isn't even thinking of how to beat this guy, she does it on autopilot with her head full of emotion.

I wonder what Aoi's going to play? As an idol in a world where getting gud gets you into places, coupled with her spotting Manaka's tactics instantly, I bet she'll be a strong player.

in b4 she was taught WS by Manaka's mother

i'm excited for what deck archetype she'll be. so far everyone sorta has a personality that reflects their deck types in a way so i wonder if she'll follow that example or contrast it instead.

I honestly really like the way Chikudake is pretty good in thinking out about the board state, but Manaka simply manipulates him even from the first game psychology-wise.

It's really telling of the high-level play.


Also that some of the other characters lose to pure dumb luck from getting mana-screwed etc.

I remember how in the last chapter this character made an observation that basically amounted to elementary school arithmetic and it was considered a genius move. I really don't have high hopes for this character but she's probably going to win.

>>55252011

She comes hard at Manaka game 1 because she knows she's been getting savage in the tournament and thinks it's going to be that sort of match. Manaka gets really bummed out about getting kicked around like that after retooling her deck for fun, thinking guilty stuff about how this iswhat she was doing to people and how she will never escape tryhard play now.

Before game 2 Aoi figure out what was going on and sideboard in all her memes while Manaka sideboards in all her bring the hammer down cards. Manama crushes Aoi while getting increasingly depressed because now she thinks she's being mocked. Aoi gets really confused about what's going on here and calls Manaka out. They have a heart to heart where Sou explains there's a lot of ways to play Wizard's Soul and that there isn't anything wrong with savage af decks as long as you and your opponent are on the same page about what you're getting into. Manaka attains enlightenment about there being different ways to have fun and smiles tearfully at aoi saying thank you over and over. For the third game they have the meme versus meme match Manaka always wanted with everyone smiling.

>>55253904
>they have the meme versus meme match Manaka always wanted with everyone smiling.
in that setup I feel like having the no holds barred match but with manaka smiling is the better end. she's come to terms with her style of play and no longer thinks it's depressing or tied to her mother. this also sets up the conclusion where bitch boi is in love with her for being a brutal death machine at cards.

>>55253972
>in that setup I feel like having the no holds barred match but with manaka smiling is the better end. she's come to terms with her style of play and no longer thinks it's depressing or tied to her mother.
Well sure, I agree it would be cool to do that too, but she's been playing hard for 20 chapters. Even if she's not feeling shitty about it anymore, she'd probably like a change of pace.

>>55253763
I feel like it's good the series ends after this, lest the author have to think too much about the game, but man I'd have liked a fuller series with Manaka actually having the potential to lose. Not that I had a problem knowing she'd always win given the circumstances, but it would have been a nice change of pace and probably fun.

Does anyone know of a download link (batch or otherwise) for the chapters released so far? Batoto's great, but this is a series I'd like to have saved.

>>55263737
It's a romance first, card game manga second. She's achieved her major goal and the final chapter or so will hopefully fulfill the romance bit
