YAAA!

I checked eyeshield_21 for the first time since the last chapter came out and I found that someone had written up a translated summary of the extra bits of trivia from the last volume. Here are some of the more interesting/relevant points (including why Taki didn't show up in the last chapter and the secret of Hiruma's little black book):

ETA: Before I forget again, I found a blog that makes comparisons between the magazine chapters and the volume releases, and for the last chapter, they actually pointed out the similarities between the first and last chapters. I noticed some of them myself, but I didn't even realise the parallels between the cover spreads.

I was originally going to wait until the scanlation came out, but I just couldn't resist.

OH MY GOD ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

It hadn't really sunk in that ES21 was ending until this chapter came out. I'm fairly certainly it ended prematurely too: midway through the week, I checked s-manga and found out that it had actually been falling to the back of Weekly SJ. So many loose ends left unfinished. ;o;

But for a premature ending, I think the creators handled it fairly well. It would've been nicer if all of ES21's huge, huge cast had been given sufficient screentime, but what can you do. And omg guys, Suzuna gets so pretty in two years. ♥

You can download the Japanese raw and find an English translation at MangaHelpers, as well as a much much smaller raw file here. I'll edit with a link to OM when the scanlation comes out later.

baaaaw my canon, it has ended ;;

SCANLATION IS HERE~

Also FTR this is the most frustrating icon ever. |D;

<Suzuna> haha, oh man, I thought I might have been having Suzuna get too comfortable around guys in camp, but this week's chapter had her having a pillow fight with various american football players and I realised I am TOTALLY FINE |D

I love the random things I can pick up even when my character only appears for one panel.

Also this week's chapter had gambling so of course the mangaka felt he had to include certain cameos. ZAWA ZAWA.

Basically stealing from Emiri: I R LAZY and also tired and such, plus I suck at coming up with presents IRL and I can't remember who should be getting presents. Therefore, this is a comment here if you would like your character(s) to get presents from my characters post - said "characters" being Suzuna, mostly, but Kiri can come up with stuff too. Probably cards he made himself with horribly inaccurate but well-drawn caricatures of the recipients. 8D

Even if they haven't threaded much or in ages, COMMENT ANYWAY because Suzuna likes getting presents for everyone and I am a massive flake I'M SO SORRY and maybe we can also try to work out offscreen stuff too. ♥
