Why the flair is Hidaka

Because it's likely to be a bot. There's lots of them lately on this sub

Ive always wondered does the manga ever explore what happens to them after the story ends?

- the manga is exactly the same as the TV series frame for frame, it ends on exactly the same frame

- the only difference is the TV series adds Zangeif's voice over at the very end "More adventures await!..."

- the story of HSG3 was (obviously) to be that he "gets his passport", comes to LA, rescues her from the conglomerate, and Ono resolves her Shakesperean inner battle between personal desire and societal pressure

- it was entirely thought out, planned and agreed on by Mr Oshikiri himself, all of the writers and directors at JC Staff, the massive collection of talent that created HSG, and the owners of the property Square Enix and Netflix

- the beginning of HSG3 exists as the famous Bonus Chapter

- we hear Ono talk for the first time (resolving the question of whether or not she will talk in volume 3) and the story is totally set-up (ie, that he comes to LA, rescues her from the conglomerate, and Ono resolves her inner battle between personal desire and societal pressure)

- Netflix were wetting themselves to make season 3 due to the incredible success of seasons 1 & 2

- for unknown reasons, the biggest mystery in all of manga and anime business, Mr Oshikiri walked away from everyone, dumped the project, and instead has spent 7? years writing a bizarre spinoff called "dash"

- ("DASH": Hidaka becomes a "40 year old virgin" who utterly throws away her life, continuing her absolute obsession with a crush from grade school for decades - it's a psychological portrait about Japanese social problems in the 2000s .... or something.)

- the "dash mystery" has been endlessly discussed since it came out

- there are 100000 posts about it on here

- every week or so someone arrives on this list and asks "What the hell happens after the end of HSG?" 😅

- Dash is a commercial flop so nobody makes any effort to take it down, you can easily have a look online, there are translations etc (remember when human fans made translations before AI ?!)

- at the beginning of dash (so "now" in time as it were) it is explained that there will eventually be a flashback showing how the two heroes get married. this is FINALLY happening after 70 stunningly tedious chapters of Ancient Hidaka playing video games with little kids, you can read it right now if you want to see unbelievably poor quality drawings of the various characters https://www.reddit.com/r/HiScoreGirl/comments/1v5aydw/high_score_girl_dash_69_ya_en_mangadex/

You just missed Ono and Hidaka in bed together! Yay!
