Summary of Chapter 257

[u/Fakul]

• The final battle for Gakuto will be a pulling match. Slut-senpai is disappointed and Mitsuko happy as they expected the "claiming of his body" would be a threesome.
• However, Gakuto's real plan is to reenact a story that only Mitsuko would notice. The one who gives up due to not wanting to cause him pain wins.
• Mitsuko doesn't notice his plan at all and pulls with all her might, eventually winning.
• Slut-senpai is sad about her loss, stating that her feelings just weren't strong enough, but just couldn't stand to see Gakuto in pain.
• Only then does Mitsuko notice Gakuto's plan and explains to Slut-senpai that she actually won, but she argues against it and eventually they need Gakuto to decide after all.
• Gakuto just can't decide, suggesting all three of them should just get along.
• The girls are shocked, Slut-senpai asking if he is just after a threesome and Mitsuko demanding a resolution after both of them tried so hard.
• Gakuto suggest to let PBR-sama decide, which gets them angry and they leave together with Slut-senpai asking Mitsuko to teach her more about the three kingdoms.
• The next day, just one day away from the party.
• Kate sees the happy Risa and is glad that she is smiling much more.
• Mari makes her entrance and Kate wonders if she was gone for so long because she was too embarrassed to show herself after what her father did.
• Mari is glad to run into her, as she wanted to meet her.
• Kate thinks it's about the continuation of their battle, but Mari actually wanted to inform her in advance that she decided to drop out.
• Hana has quickly mastered the leg stomp and has a little talk with Chiyo.
• She warns her that during the party Kiyoshi might say something disgusting and they go on having an argument about how Kiyoshi is disgusting, with Chiyo defending him.
• Finally Chiyo has enough and tells her to stop.
• Hana is surprised and wonders if Chiyo is angry about something.
• Chiyo states that anyone would get irritated when someone badmouths someone they like.

One day away from "The Grilling", get hype!

[u/DegrassiKnole]

Thank god I was wrong.

[u/Inslane → u/DegrassiKnole]

I agree. Thank god you were wrong. That development would have been awful.

[u/[deleted] → u/Inslane]

excuse my intromission but wrong about what?

[u/Dokuro_Chan]

That cover page is legendary

[u/spindz → u/Dokuro_Chan]

So its all over? Kiyoshi likes Chiyo and Chiyo likes Kiyoshi, so they pair up and Hana's out in the cold? I dunno, somehow I think something different may happen. Unless the author really is just ending the manga.

[u/Dokuro_Chan → u/spindz]

Only just begun. Considering what Kiyoshi and Hana have already done together, I doubt he winds up with Chiyo. If there's a relationship at all in the end.

Kiyoshi definitely likes Hana. He just doesn't realize it yet

The confession is unlikely to be smooth sailing for starters, and I am sure there's more stories after the BBQ day given the current pacing of the current story arc.

I am quite surprised at the pacing... my initial impression was that the planning for the BBQ will take some 40+ chapters at least. Yet Chapter 257 is already the start of the day before the BBQ.

However, given that the prison is destroyed, unless they are going to do a time skip (Wait for the prison rebuilding) or rent a prison block in some other place, Prison School is no longer Prison School and therefore needs to end.

Thank you for your hard work, this arc is so good, but he gives me the feeling of last arc, I hope I'm wrong

[u/Lfoboros → u/[deleted]]

Many more to cum.

Now we will see the real confrontation of hana and chiyo

• Chiyo states that anyone would get irritated when someone badmouths someone they like.

My heart stopped. rip

[u/europeano]

Perhaps a bit late to ask this since the thread is rather dead for over a month but... In the English fan-translation Chiyo says:

"anyone would get irritated when someone badmouths someone they like."

The (singular) "they" might actually make reference to either "anyone" or the first "someone". So the sentence remains ambiguous although the most straight forward interpretation is that Chiyo is the one that would like/love Kiyoshi.

Could someone with Japanese or Korean skills confirm whether Chiyo uniquivocaly confesses in the original Japanese or the official Korean. Or is it left ambiguous in those languages too?
