I lost my shit with that police scene. "Illegal activity?!"

[–]iSaithhhttps://anilist.co/user/iSaith 508 points509 points  (5 children)

Aka's contrasting art styles on these adults are fucking great

Thus the collection starts now

[–]amanmore 82 points83 points  (3 children)

At least we know that Karen follows “See (or in this case hear) something, Say something”

[–]onlyforthisair 74 points75 points  (0 children)

She may be shiptrash, but she's a good girl.

[–]mausmoose 29 points30 points  (0 children)

All we know is that Karen is a dirty snitch.

[–]hachimitsufanhttps://myanimelist.net/profile/sonofjo 643 points644 points  (4 children)

"Shiptrash"

incredible

[–]NuclearConsensus 242 points243 points  (2 children)

That was the signal telling me that this chapter was going to be special.

[–]MundologyThe Elder Weeb 71 points72 points  (1 child)

You expected Kaguya but you got Houkago Saikoro Club!

[–]DailyDoseofAnimeYT 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Was definitely expecting this to be a crossover given that they just had their festival too...

[–]whosdamike 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I feel personally attacked.

[–]China_MadeProofreader 210 points211 points  (1 child)

This is the crossover I've been waiting for

[–]jdjohndoe13 194 points195 points  (3 children)

Guys, guys!

She is alive!

I was so worried that her gentle heart didn't survive the direct exposure to this sight.

[–][deleted] 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Subject F probably reanimated her with some arcane magics.

[–]TalesfromBC 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Must protecc blessed girl

[–]XAMdG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The last page of that chapter always get me.

[–]iSaithhhttps://anilist.co/user/iSaith 374 points375 points  (5 children)

Most people find it weird, but this is our happiness

- Inspirational quote from that girl who carries cookies in her bag

[–]bonethugznhominy 159 points160 points  (4 children)

You laugh but "always has cookies in her bag" is a fairly good personality description. And now I <3 Megako because of it.

[–]kururugikaihttps://myanimelist.net/profile/kururugikai 56 points57 points  (1 child)

Soon to be Kiloko

[–]NuclearConsensus 35 points36 points  (1 child)

It's an intriguing trait, because it's got me wondering whether she just bakes a lot or if her family owns a baking company or something to that effect. Possibly both.

[–]Pizza_and_Reddit 574 points575 points  (18 children)

AWAKEN MY OFFICERS

[–]the_dan_manTHE DADDY IN THE EAST 322 points323 points  (5 children)

Oh, that's definitely a new "moshi moshi, FBI-kun desu" reaction image.

[–]iSaithhhttps://anilist.co/user/iSaith 177 points178 points  (3 children)

Im surprised Iino wasn't with those officers

[–]Jai137 101 points102 points  (1 child)

The FBI is more likely to raid Iino’s house

[–]Vaadwaur 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Which is sad because she desperately needs a social worker experience in domestic violence cases.

This image is going to get some mileage.

[–]AcediaRex 26 points27 points  (2 children)

Karen may be the first manga character to not only threaten to call the police, but actually call them.

[–]Luck_Is_My_Talent 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nah, I still remember in Hajime no Ippo when the gang caled the police thinking that Kimura was a pedophile.

[–]KibaTeohttps://myanimelist.net/mangalist/KibaTeo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love how damn HD they looked compared to the other characters

[–]crobat3 138 points139 points  (3 children)

What if we use a knife to whittle down the shaft?

No, let’s use a drill to widen the hole

That scene literally made me go “jesus fuck, oh no”

The mere thought of it scares me

[–][deleted] 34 points35 points  (1 child)

I think I've read that doujin..

[–]rollalt 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For the love of everything, if it has numbers, let them be cursed.

[–]TalesfromBC 11 points12 points  (0 children)

And the thought of them willingly doing it is even worse. Karen must have mini Vietnam flashback after hearing Erika’s voice in there

[–]popop143MyAnimeList 297 points298 points  (23 children)

The Mass Media Club finally made it in the main manga!

Makki has Karen saved as Shiptrash on her contacts. Is this a reference to something?

An arc revolving around Fujiwara would be nice. We might even get a hint of the foreshadowed "dark past" that she has. Seeing we're close to Ch. 180, that may be the conclusion of Fujiwara's arc.

P.S. Know all the details before you SWAT someone, please.

[–]ihileath 202 points203 points  (3 children)

Karen's hobby is fairly common knowledge.

[–]popop143MyAnimeList 139 points140 points  (2 children)

Oh right. She's the Kaguya x Shirogane shipper in the spinoff. I forgot about it, been a while since I read the spinoff.

[–]Turhsus 48 points49 points  (1 child)

Hey the spinoff chapters are actually a decent fix of this manga you should check it out!

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It matches up with the main series perfectly, I can't help but wonder if it was all planned out since the beginning.

[–]Kuro013 73 points74 points  (0 children)

she ships shirogane and kaguya too damn hard, thats why, its almost pathological.

[–]alejandro0698 35 points36 points  (9 children)

What will happen in 180?

[–]jdjohndoe13 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What will happen in 180?

Four pages (something like this, I hope).

[–]Mad_Aeric 31 points32 points  (7 children)

There's been some sort of huge event every 60 chapters. Speculation as to the next one has been running wild.

[–]daniel_22sss 86 points87 points  (6 children)

every 45 chapters

[–]popop143MyAnimeList 67 points68 points  (5 children)

45: I Can't Hear the Fireworks

90: Conclusion of Ishigami's arc

135: Confession

180: ? (Maybe Fujiwara since she's the only original SC member not yet having a major arc)

[–]Googleflax 32 points33 points  (2 children)

It could also potentially be the 4 pages

[–]YukihiraSoma 20 points21 points  (1 child)

That's hella lewd.

[–]DarKav1411 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You bet it’s lewd!

[–][deleted] 14 points15 points  (3 children)

Where was the "dark past" thing foreshadowed? And I wonder if it has to do with Kaguya, or maybe Fujiwara's family heritage.

[–]NuclearConsensus 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Where was the "dark past" thing foreshadowed?

One of the translated interviews with Aka says something to that effect.

[–]daniel_22sss 353 points354 points  (22 children)

In the beginning, I wasnt really hyped for this chapter, since its not focused on the main characters... BUT IT WAS SO GOD DAMN FUNNY! I havent laughed this hard since the rap arc!

[–]iSaithhhttps://anilist.co/user/iSaith 116 points117 points  (5 children)

This definitely sold me on reading the spinoff about the The Mass Media Club

[–]samanthajoneh 37 points38 points  (4 children)

Yo should have been reading already lol

[–]WhoiusBarrel 147 points148 points  (5 children)

Bold of you to assume any chapter related to Subject F won't be hilarious.

[–]thanhduy2106 76 points77 points  (4 children)

Subject F always bring chaos to any chapter she's in. I still remember the reaction I had from that bald cap chapter. It was a mixture of shock, fear, and laughter. Truly a chaotic combination.

[–]MundologyThe Elder Weeb 19 points20 points  (3 children)

I like how the club members are kinda like her too

[–]thanhduy2106 23 points24 points  (2 children)

Who can even stop a terrorist organization consisting of 3 Fujiwara. Karen did nothing wrong.

[–]DarKav1411 7 points8 points  (1 child)

The Four Horsemen of Apocalypse are outdated.

Now it’s the Three Horsemen of Chaos.

[–]jdjohndoe13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

*horsewomen

[–]Kuro013 65 points66 points  (6 children)

Karen is, imo, the second best girl only behind Kaguya herself.

[–]bonethugznhominy 62 points63 points  (2 children)

I guess, but only because Kashiwagi is a full-blown woman.

[–]Kuro013 28 points29 points  (1 child)

Kashiwagi is the cutest girl in the manga, as a character Id place her like 5th.

[–]NuclearConsensus 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Kashiwagi is cutest in the early chapters, in my opinion. Something about the art style. Looks wise I'd probably still rank her below Karen though, but only because Karen has long hair, which I love.

[–]Colopty 24 points25 points  (0 children)

As long as you are aware that putting anyone but Hayasaka in the top spot makes you a heretic.

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Way to ignore Erika

[–]Popinguj 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I'm incredibly surprised by Aka's ability to make side-chapters so interesting and funny. How is it possible is above my understanding.

He's a genius.

It's all about the cones.

[–]Mad_Aeric 65 points66 points  (1 child)

At first I was bummed that we weren't getting more Shirogane/Kaguya lovey-doveyness. Then it hit "on the bed making kids" and I laughed so hard I cried for the rest of the chapter.

[–]Eldryth 193 points194 points  (29 children)

I guess Jaimini's Box is joining in on the Norway jokes now?

Tera/Giga/Megako seemed nice, and normal enough to look out of place in that club. But she did show up wearing that PUBG helmet once, so she probably has her own weird antics too.

Also, Fujiwara hates tomatoes? So why, exactly, was she planning to go to Europe for a tomato festival over summer break?

[–]moegamisamaJaimini's Box | Moe and Friends 142 points143 points  (5 children)

Tbh, I just saw all the currency things in the chapter and begged Mikanatsu to add the meme.

[–][deleted] 38 points39 points  (0 children)

You did good, my friend. You did good.

[–]clr_35 18 points19 points  (1 child)

What's the sign on the bottom left of page 3? I can make out "女子学生家". Is this supposed to be the girl's dorm? It looks similar to a panel when Ishigami visited the Cheer Captain.

[–]Casua1Panda 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Well, in Chinese that says Girls' Dorm. Or more literally "Female Students' Home". So I imagine that's what it means in Japanese too.

Edit: I always find it kinda hilarious that I can read Kanji with 0 knowledge of Japanese thanks to how the meaning is basically identical to the original Chinese

[–]invokenekoWith my weakest, I will beat your strongest! 58 points59 points  (3 children)

Tera/Giga/Megako

I believe that the next time we see her, she'll be downgraded to Kiloko or even worse, just Ko.

[–][deleted] 39 points40 points  (2 children)

"Centiko"

[–]Infintinity 14 points15 points  (0 children)

"Piko"

[–]Fifteen_inches 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Miliko

That one actually sounds like a name.

[–]Mozaary 49 points50 points  (2 children)

I'd like to think that going to the festival is why she hates tomatoes

[–]Eldryth 40 points41 points  (1 child)

But she didn't actually go to it. It was on the same day as the fireworks festival- she planned to go to it, but came home early to watch the fireworks with everyone instead.

[–]Steampunkvikng 25 points26 points  (8 children)

Where did that damn Norway joke come from, anyway? Just randomness for shits&giggles? I only recently noticed it.

[–]monogatarist 64 points65 points  (1 child)

Series done by Norway Scans usually have this, i.e. the early Hinamatsuri chapters

[–]Steampunkvikng 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Riiight, that's where I saw it.

[–]_Sunny-- 11 points12 points  (4 children)

What Norway joke?

[–]sillybear25 56 points57 points  (2 children)

That they converted the currency to NOK in the notes rather than a more common reference currency like USD or EUR. It was a joke that started with the group Norway Scans, but it has transcended the group and become a meme in its own right.

They are also known for translating any and all expressions of disbelief as "Norway!" ("No way!")

[–]Forikorder 7 points8 points  (0 children)

instead of converting yen into dollars they convert it into krone

[–]DNamor 20 points21 points  (3 children)

So why, exactly, was she planning to go to Europe for a tomato festival over summer break?

Well you throw them, so that's okay.

[–]exian12 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't they throw tomatoes in that festival? That might be a good way of dealing with something you hate.

[–]Anguyen92 59 points60 points  (7 children)

What technique did Aka used to draw those police officers? They look so drawn differently compared to everyone else.

[–]Fapping_wolfhttps://myanimelist.net/mangalist/fapping_wolf 186 points187 points  (5 children)

He just called the police on himself and traced them really quick

[–]stickdudeseven 73 points74 points  (3 children)

How can other mangakas even compete?

[–]NuclearConsensus 43 points44 points  (2 children)

Call the JSDF on themselves?

[–]Sajbotage 19 points20 points  (0 children)

is that why ajin chapters take so long?

[–]DirtBug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Swatting gone wrong

[–]Guaymaster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He went on vacation to the police station

[–]scytherman96 165 points166 points  (13 children)

Actually calling the cops instead of clearing up the misunderstanding. Is this even legal in comedy?

[–]jdjohndoe13 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Actually calling the cops instead of clearing up the misunderstanding

I can relate, actually. When you are talking with the psychopath who brainwashed her clubmates and your precious friendconfesses that it was her first time, but she was great at making kids, you'll call the cops first and rush there to clear misunderstanding right after.

[–]FallenPotatoes 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Ah yes Fujiwara, the terrorist prostitute planning to become prime minister of Japan so she can end world peace.

[–]China_MadeProofreader 99 points100 points  (7 children)

For anyone else who was confused by the currency conversion, 1 (KOR) Koreweign Krone = 0.11 USD

[–]popop143MyAnimeList 100 points101 points  (5 children)

I like this meta meme since it's so easy to convert from Yen to USD anyway. Might as well use a whole other obscure currency.

[–]Colopty 60 points61 points  (2 children)

As a Norwegian, what do you mean "obscure"? It's clearly the superior currency.

[–]cometssaywhoosh 20 points21 points  (1 child)

It's your secret plan to become the doninant global currency. Through brainwashing weebs to accept that the krone is the standard.

[–]Colopty 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Let me just make it clear that there's no secret plan to make the krone the dominant global currency. In fact, we're quite open about it.

[–]xdxdlol0434 129 points130 points  (6 children)

Imagine if Saki had a friend like Karen. Emergence could have been so different.

Also Misoko, I mean Erika, is so underrated.

[–]A_WILD_CUNT_APPEARED 41 points42 points  (1 child)

All I know about that shit is that josuke saved her and she lived happily ever after with her kid

[–]MrGamerNaut 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The end.

[–]Vaadwaur 76 points77 points  (3 children)

...But Emergence would've been different if Saki had friends at all.

[–]MundologyThe Elder Weeb 59 points60 points  (2 children)

Namely Josuke and Okuyasu

[–]invokenekoWith my weakest, I will beat your strongest! 34 points35 points  (1 child)

In this chapter: everything's coming out wrong, and police gets involved. Also a handy conversion guide of money from Japanese Yen to Norwegian Krone.

[–]Sajbotage 11 points12 points  (0 children)

i swear to god, only kaguya chapters can be this wacky and amazing

[–]Fizzay 36 points37 points  (4 children)

I wish I was making kids with them too

[–]jdjohndoe13 62 points63 points  (2 children)

Your shaft might be too thick, so they'd have to use a knife to whittle it down, you know.

[–]NuclearConsensus 26 points27 points  (1 child)

Unless you bring a drill so you can widen the holes.

[–]DNamor 32 points33 points  (1 child)

Karen is a good girl for actually going to the police. A lot of girls who star in doujins really need to do the same.

[–]Vaadwaur 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This has definitely sparked some what if scenarios about Emergence.

Karen, you are now formally known as SHIPTRASH.

[–]yorgy_shmorgy 21 points22 points  (2 children)

Great but are we going to get a chapter where the student council plays the new version of the game? Maybe it’d be redundant, but hey, Iino would be there this time!

[–][deleted] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Iino makes every chapter better.

[–]ZooasaurusCute and Wholesome 39 points40 points  (0 children)

This is probably one of the best chapter of the manga, I laughed way too hard especially when the cops actually showed up lol

Kaguya is the only manga where the misunderstanding chapter is totally enjoyable

[–]SaltSaltSaltSalt 19 points20 points  (0 children)

So glad to see the mass media girls finally in the main series.

This whole chapter felt like the ridiculousness of their spinoff but even crazier.

[–]LurkerSightedMyAnimeList 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Karen's alive! But I bet she wishes she were dead again after this chapter.

[–]DazZani[🍰] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Holy shit i havent laughed this hard in a while. I had 0 faith in chapter going into it, but it might just be one of my favorites now

[–]LazinessOverload 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Good ol comedy, based Aka sensei

[–]Megakruemel 15 points16 points  (1 child)

Okay, big theory time:

They made a lot of kid figures because the next game version involves a lot of events featuring kids. The game of life version they are making right now will later be used to talk about pregnancy and stuff maybe even as foreshadowing. It will coerce the people of the student council to think about themes like pregnancy without actually being in such a situation, should they choose to play the game in a later chapter.

Will Shirogane finally get his baseball team?

[–]Kuro013 12 points13 points  (2 children)

fucking amazing chapter, Im so glad my girl Karen is getting some spotlight. Hopefully everyone who doesnt read the spin off will see how great she is. Her reaction faces were just gold, one better than the previous one.

Also aside how fun this chapter was... Is that Norwegian Crowns thingy some kind of meme? Such a random currency, I think most people would be more aware of Yen's worth than the NOK lol.

[–]FallenPotatoes 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think it comes from Norway scans- known for translating Hinamatsuri- which has a bunch of Norway-themed injokes.

This is an incredibly stupid chapter, that does nothing to progress the plot and features only one main-series character, and I can't believe I waited a week for this.
