Yeah, we’re men who read Nisekoi. So?
This week, Naoshi Komi’s romcom manga Nisekoi finally ended after it’s 229 chapter run that began November 2011. (There’s also a few spinoff chapters and a light novel or two, but we’re not counting them). So just like we did with Naruto, all the writers of Otaku Nuts that actually read Nisekoi are giving their opinions in articles. If you wish to read our thoughts on Naruto’s ending, I’ll provide links below, but for now, let’s talk about love!

So for those of you who didn’t read chapters 1 – 228, let me recap as quickly as possible: Raku loved a girl in his class, a tsundere showed up, Raku loved a tsundere. Yes, it’s that classic story of boy-meets-girl, girl constantly hits boy, boy likes it so falls for her. If you’re a long-time reader of romance, you’ll know this cliche inside and out. As someone who only dabbles with fictional love, even I know this has been done a lot.
However, let’s talk about this chapter before we talk about the series as a whole. The final chapter of Nisekoi begins with a timeskip, like every single manga ending needs to, in which Raku has become the head of the yakuza family he swore he never would. His view on these yakuza have changed quite a lot, and he’s also working in City Hall’s public safety department. All in all, he’s one privileged little shit.
Raku’s father is going off on a second honeymoon with Raku’s mother, which really raises the question of what their relationship has been this whole time, and Raku tells us that Chitoge’s father retired as well, leaving a far more calm and collected Claude in charge. Raku gets changed, says goodbye to animals, and has a phonecall with the second best character in the show, Shuu.
It looks like Shuu is living with the best character in the show Ruri, and is calling to confirm he’ll be going to the “event” he was invited to, since he’s the organiser and best pal of Raku. Shuu then jokes to Ruri that they should get married, and it warms my heart to see her banter about how they should. Shuu then calls Ms Kyoko, or whatever her name must be by now, to ask if she’ll attend. She says she will, and we see her with kids because she got married around a 100 or so chapters ago.
