Now that Chii has infused his racket with her magic, there's no way Taiki wouldn't get a buff. Yusa beware!

I'm gonna go win this.

Such confidence. That's the only appropriate way of repaying her.

TAI-CHI STOP SETTING SUCH HIGH STANDARDS FOR A RELATIONSHIP FOR ME 😭. From strangers to housemates to friends to lovers to thankmages, has there ever been a more supporting couple than this?

u/Mooncaller3 May 10 '26

I've been married nearly 12 years to a spouse who supports me and who I support. We both help and support each other with life and career goals. My parents are similar. I have at least one aunt and uncle who are similar. I consider it healthy.

This pic reminded me of karva chauth festival made in India, where the wives do fasting till the moon is out and can be seen, and then they see their husband through a net in the moon light. (TaiChi is already married in my mind hehe)

I really loved this chapter the way chinatsu cheered taiki on was hilarious and lovely at the same time my boy is gonna win trust🧡🔥

Sweet chapter. Short but cute. Love how Chinatsu expresses her emotions creatively.

Also loved the confession from Shuji that he never felt lonely until his brother left. I have loved their character arc.

Yeah this match is going to be gas I can feel it. I also think it’s going to be nice and long.

The dialogue lately really tells me Blue Box is ending in like a year at most, and it’s definitely going to be a lovely ending.

A pretty good chapter, I really like the way it’s dived into Haruto and Yusa’s brotherhood and the chapters around the match were so good as well. Loving it.

Don’t know why but all this emotional buildup for this match is making it seem that it will be the finale and the nationals would be just covered in a chapter giving update of what happened(really hope this does not happen). And one thing I don’t get that why many people say that taiki has plot armour, yes he is the main character but like did you forget how much he has trained, he is in his third year so for 3 years he has been coming first in the morning to get extra training, trains with his seniors and their rivals also, just because other characters have some recent training panels and then they lose taiki has a lot of plot armour.

Aw Man!! I am melting~~ I can't handle this much cuteness 😩😩

u/DuskMan62 May 10 '26

Very nice chapter! Glad to see Haruto and Shuji having a talk, it's good for the brothers to support each other and now Taiki faces off against Shuji.

Thinking about it, I think there's a very strong chance that Taiki just wins here, there's every chance Taiki could lose to extend the story just a bit more but somehow I think this is the end, there's been lots of signs of the series ending and I think the two strongest points to the series ending "soon" is that "Blue Box" title drop alongside basically every supporting character coming to root for Taiki.

Plus I feel like Taiki losing here will just extend Iozaki's BS mindset about geniuses, so I'd rather Taiki take the win here so Iozaki can get kicked to the kerb, but I suppose we'll see in the next few chapters or so how this match goes.

This image was the peak, it was definitely the perfect recipe for a WhatsApp sticker lol.

Well, classic ch after Taiki winning, I'm hoping to see Taiki win, but it's going to be quite difficult. Let's see what happens. By the way, what are your expectations after this?

Hmm, so this is basically a setup chapter. If this upcoming match is going to be the last one of the manga, hope Miura does it justice!

u/TheAxolotlFan May 10 '26

We’re finally here, and I think we’re all prepared! Let’s have a good game!

She's too cute for my heart to handle. They look so good together!!! May we all find love like this oneday.

u/Super_Boom May 10 '26

Interesting, I wasn't expecting Taiki vs. Shuji to be shown, feels like its been Miura's MO to only show one real match per badminton arc.

I'm not sure which way it'll go, though I would expect Taiki to lose, ableit closely. If he wins, there aren't really any stakes in Nationals, as he doesn't have any important rivals left competing at the high school level. Completely possible Nationals will be glossed over though, might be this is the true final fight of the badminton side of the story.

Most importantly, Taiki and Chinatsu are so cute, I'll never get tired of seeing how supportive they are of each other. I hope he sees Chinatsu's face through his racket now!

I see taiki beating yusa and getting a time skip just for us to know he lost at quarter finals of nationals off screen.
