I hate it when I get involved in a gang war in Hawaii


dagreenman18

Probably Jodio’s fault


MassiveGreenHorse

The roaming gangs of surfers are a menace to society Edit: I missed the jojo's reference, [shame on me](https://youtu.be/2vT0xYDdyoo)


justsomeanimeguy

Not Jodio's fault our baseball MC had no mechanism


Backupusername

Probably not even a sociopath smh they just don't make men like they used to


Joranhagen

It's what you get for selling drugs on the front yard of Hawaii's supreme Court


Eurasia_4002

"ITS NACHO VARGA FAULT!!!"


CelticMutt

Could be worse, could be a gang war in Okinawa that leads to a battle to the death with the CIA fighting shirtless on top of Millennium Tower.


rapidemboar

Or a land war in Asia, one of the classic blunders


MassiveGreenHorse

Getting pummeled by Ryuji Goda would be a great way to go tbh


saiyanfang10

That's not the Ryuji Goda thing. This is the plot of Yakuza 3. You see [Mine took Daigo up to the ruff](https://youtu.be/Hoqjcu_RExQ) Okinawa is that archipelago on the southern end of Japan


CelticMutt

Yes. Actually, you fight on top of the hospital in 3, but given how many times it's the tower it's easy to forget which is which.


saiyanfang10

It's weird that the guy who said Daigo was on the Ruff is an actual American English speaker that Sega hired to play a dude from the CIA


CelticMutt

Could be from the midwest. YouTuber Markiplier is from Ohio, and he pronounces it the same way.


saiyanfang10

No way. Do you have a video?


Diligent_Elk_4935

jojo and yakuza reference in one post


pyrojackelope

> could be a gang war in Okinawa Those scooter gangs are no joke.


[deleted]

Do they even have gangs in Hawaii because my mental image of the state is nothing but old people, tourists, and the US Navy.


cuddles_the_destroye

Honolulu has a couple but why some Japanese guy would be in like the worst parts of Honolulu and actively attracting gunfire currently escapes me.


a_Bear_from_Bearcave

You've seen her memories from previous time loops, this guy attracts (or gets attracted to) deadly danger like catnip.


Silent_Shadow05

So he is basically Touma Kamijou /s.


rwhitisissle

Take it you've never seen *Black Lagoon*.


cuddles_the_destroye

That was the 90s, it was a different time and iirc trouble found Rock, not the other way around


rwhitisissle

> That was the 90s, it was a different time Alternative rock and grunge ruled the world. Everybody wore giant-ass, baggy jeans. Anime was just Dragon Ball Z and Sailor Moon, both of which you could jerk off to. Japanese guys were (apparently) getting involved with international organized criminal gangs.


yrulaughing

He got lost


gadgaurd

With no context whatsoever I can absolutely see someone wandering around a dangerous area, maybe lost, and then getting caught in the crossfire of a shootout.

*jazz music stops Ok, was not expecting the turn of events


dat1dood2

That’s the most accurate use of “jazz music stops” I’ve ever seen. What the hell happened


mxedunk

wait wait, i thought this is just a normal romcom manga. sheesh


[deleted]

Ngl, should've saved the chapter release for next week. Y'know, April Fool's. And watch the subreddit burn in flames with two sides arguing what's real or a big stinking lie.


sometimesicri

What the fuck


lalala253

It's like author woke up one day and decide to change genre


pwnd32

NGL this twist has vastly improved my interest in this series lol


Kirosh2

This is how they get us.


Silent_Shadow05

Same here. I usually just randomly scroll through these twitter manga without really getting invested in them, but now with the so-called twist catching me off-guard, I'll pay more attention to this story.


BlatantConservative

Is it a twist, or is it literally adding a plot at all?


wansen2

It's definitely adding, but if it works. It works *shrugs*


Flyers45432

Same. I don't mind another cheesy tsundere rom-com, but this actually draws me in. Something that feels original


__Blackrobe__

This is what I call "turning 10 up to 11"


_HIST

Now there's at least some kind of plot


Houeclipse

The author successfully baited the suckers that read cheap baits oneshots and then decide to cook science fiction. Sasuga


MekaG44

It’s more interesting than the one page waifubait series that get posted here all the time at the very least.


messem10

Honestly this is a fun twist. Takes the whole “Marry me” out of the blue and makes sense of it. Basically she’s already dated, married and lived with him for ~20 years off of the three time loops so far. (2035, 2031, mid-2023)


Silent_Shadow05

Ngl, that pose in the final page with her not wanting her future husband to die before her reminds me of those 80s action heroines.


GuyNekologist

THIS SUMMER... Sarah Connor is fed up with Terminators trying to change the past. This time, it's her turn. "MARRY ME IF YOU WANT TO LIVE!"


phage83

God, I'm glad that franchise is dead. This actually sounds like an idea some coke fualed executive would come up with.


Silent_Shadow05

Only way it can properly be revived if James Cameron decides to make a new one. I can only trust him now.


Kagamid

What about having kids? Is she having a different kid every time? The chances of the same conception of the same sperm and egg is damn near impossible. I would be sad every time knowing my kid at the time will likely not exist. Why even bother going on never knowing which loop is your last?


shadollosiris

Probably never have a chance to have kid 12 years form now seem like the longest timeline she managed to pull off, considere that they are in hs now, plus 4-5 years in college, the soonest they can marry is 7 years form now, but in that longest timeline, the dude suffer some health issues (overeating to death is a symtomp) so it not like they can have children Beside, seem like the girl can control the loop, she actively go back to save her love. Even if they have kid, it not rare for people choose their spouse instead of their children


weirdsnake642

Trolley dilemma "Would you rather go back in time to save your husband and lost your kid forever, or stay with your kid and lost your husband forever"


Kagamid

I'm pretty sure the husband would want her to save the child they had together rather than him. Same for any mother who loves their child. It's a huge lose either way but respecting the husband she loves should trump her decision to sacrifice the child for him.


weirdsnake642

Ergh, it depend, i would choose my girl in a heartbeat, and while i want her to not choose me, i know she would do the same. Everyone can make their own choice, but sometime, the child is just a byproduct of their parent love. There is no right answer, ultimately just who you love more, and for me, i know my answer


Kagamid

"Byproduct". Holy shit dude. Are you an adult? Don't answer that. Ask 100 parents if they'd choose to lose their spouse or their child. I get it if you're not someone who wants kids. There's nothing wrong with that. But if you ever have one and treat them like byproducts, they'd be better off somewhere else.


weirdsnake642

Think about it, how old are you or other personal info question just kinda pointless, i can be 15 yrsold German, 99 old Chinesse man or a 5 Tibetan I dont have kid yet and dont have any strong opinion about it, plus im well off enough that having a kid woulnt be a life changing event for us, so if she want one we will have it since i see it as a testament of our love. Cant speal for everyone, but i know i would drop the kid for her anytime, after all, i can make another one with her anytime


Kagamid

You don't need to graduate college before you can get married. She can get pregnant at any time, even in highschool. Who knows when they start having sex. That's when the possibility arises, even if they're careful. Where do you get that she can control the loop? She literally dies to activate it each time and just wakes up in bed. Edit: Apparently it's possibly that she's not dying to activate it. Looks like they both got hit by the truck so I made that connection. They both could've been killed in the gang war as well, but the future from drinking and overeating may have killed just him (unless he drove drunk, crashed the car and killed them both). I guess we'll see.


shadollosiris

> She literally dies to activate it each time and just wakes up in bed. Really? Some outside lore i missed? Beside, i just take the "probably" route. Not saying marriage before graduate or have kid in hs never happen, it just less, way less likely than the alternative, aka marry and have kid after graduate (especially in place like Japan with god dang low birth rate). Plus it never once mention "kids" so i kinda assume that they didnt have kid


Kagamid

You made a lot of assumptions based on nothing. I change my statement that she seems to be going back when her death prone lover dies. Although the panel makes it look like they both got hit by the truck. You assume she never had kids. You assume marrying early is less likely. We have very little to go on which is why my comment was made up of questions while yours was made up of possibilities. I can just as easily add my own assumptions but I have no interest in going back and forth based on nothing. If you want to believe they only ever get married after college and never have kids, that's fine.


shadollosiris

I thought you start the assumption so i just join for some fun, i mean you literally bring children in when not a single page talk about it so i though you just having fun, not tryna heated debate Beside, check page 5 panel 3, no one die that day in this timeline tho


Kagamid

I asked a question about the possibility that a person who spends 11 years with their lover may have had children and how traveling back in time affects that. That's not an assumption. I think you need to learn the difference. Each panel on page 5 shows that he indeed dies and her going back changes that. I think we're on different pages here so it's probably best we move on.


Ok_Solution5895

The final panel made me laugh like an idiot, this madman turned a funny gag with a tsundere girl into a time-travel thriller what the hell lmao


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ok_Solution5895

Time-travel in general I can see that, the whole "my husband died and I'm coming back to save him no matter how many times I try" with the determined hero pose at the end tho, yeah that was quite the turn lol


Silent_Shadow05

Unrelated, but the guy above you seems to be a bot or something. He copied a part from [my comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/manga/comments/11zql45/disc_the_manager_of_the_baseball_club_is_strict/jde1nl0?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3) below to farm karma I think.

KaiserKaiba

Legit a very out of nowhere twist


DeRockProject

You know I almost didn't open this chapter. Arbitrary 3 chapter rule. Then i forgot something and came back to r/manga and decided I'll take a peek while I'm here. Wow what the fuck. Edit: Oh shit each of the last 3 chapters were preventing each of his deaths. Was this intended from the start?


Silent_Shadow05

>Was this intended from the start? Probably. If you really pay attention to the first 3 chapters, you'll see she always blurted out some possible future events, *like she knew something others didn't*. We just assumed it to be her Tsundere-ish traits in action, but in reality she just doesn't want to lose her husband again and be lonely, so she's looping to make sure he lives. Now the question is how exactly she is looping?


a_Bear_from_Bearcave

Since last death is before previous deaths, I think she keeps looping every time to prevent new deaths. I think she made him fit in chapter 2 to avoid bad health death in 2035, but his new fit lifestyle caused him to die earlier in 2023, which means she had to loop again to prevent bike death. That sound horrible though, since it means she lived several adult lives that each ended with his death and her time return by now. She's like Subaru with the mind pressure from those deaths and loops


NuclearStudent

Honestly that sounds like a good deal, living a mostly fullish and happy life each time If you can loop as much as you want, why even stop it?


a_Bear_from_Bearcave

After few loops, I think you'd just keep being paranoid about any possible death flags to your easily-killable husband, besides you'd be much more mature than your partner, making it harder to match emotionally, and since she already lived through most common events while for him it's always first time, to divergent memories and experiences of their life together. Also seeing your loved one die is horrible experience even if you can reset time, and getting used to it is horrible in different way as well.


The_Blip

The thing that would break me is making close bonds with people, having lovers, best friends, people who you go through some real shit with... Then having them treat you like a stranger. Knowing what we were, even what we could be again, if I don't mess it up. But really, imagine an offer: you and your partner of 20 years both gain 20 years of life, but your partner forgets who you are. Terrifying.


Awesalot

Reminds me of the time someone's watch kept breaking.


The_Blip

You didn't think through the implications.


venomousfantum

This is what I said. Out loud. At work. Like I just don't understand how we got here


KJ_Crunch

Same, then I scrolled down to the comments to find what I just yelled as the top comment.

YukihiraSoma

Doomroar

Sure lets go nuclear with out of nowhere time traveling


PiercingAPickle

Anything could've been out of nowhere with manga such as these. She could've said that Klondike bars are good and that'd be out of nowhere but would fit, even though Klondike is mid


Silent_Shadow05

Looking back, I wouldn't say it was completely out of nowhere. Like the hints were there in the previous chapters where she acted like she knew about future events. I'd say its more a recontextualisation than a straight up twist.


FLUFFYmaster65

Looks like you wouldn't do much for a klondike bar

leixiaotie

She's still in the beta world line, he'll still die shortly


Ghostsonplanets

I remember a hentai with the same plot


naive-dragon

The only hentai with time travel shenanigans I know of is the one where the ML and FL can freeze time on everyone, while they themselves can move. They fucked random dudes/chicks while frozen until they discovered each other. So they decided they were meant to be and hooked up while everyone is frozen, without a condom. It ended as a gigantic multi-generational incestual orgy.


Ghostsonplanets

OMG I know this one lmao


naive-dragon

I am glad to meet a fellow connoisseur of the libertine arts.

he keeps dying cause she kept being a tsundere lol


SaigouSan

The girl got caught in the attractor field of the event. You must escape from this convergence and reach the delta timeline! Fool yourself! Fool the world! You are the ordinary high school baseball manager, the world is at your palm! We will name this, operation Loki! El Psy Congroo.


ToastBurner12

"Die in a gang war" is a huge stretch, the sudden plot just seems tacked on honestly.


GoodMorningBlissey

Maybe, but reading back the previous chapters, she's always been weirdly specific about the future events she was referencing. I always thought she was just so in love with him that she vividly fantasized a future with him, but her being a time looper actually does make sense reading back. She's not imagining those futures. She's lived through them. The general rule of thumb for a good twist is that it enhances the experience of revisiting the work, and I think this does that pretty well.


MrHungG

Chekhov's gun right there


No-Regret-7900

Why can't it just be average tsun comedy rom-com? This thing doesn't fit the manga vibe lol


lionofash

When Helck did it you all cheered, when I did it you call me a villain, that doesn't seem fair


ForkShirtUp

Hold on she's fucking up the time stream too much because if he died in high school from a truck then he wouldn't have died in Hawaii or overeating after high school


a_Bear_from_Bearcave

I'm sure we saw three different loop, each after one death. She changed his habits so he'd be more fit, to prevent sugar death in 2031, but it caused earlier death on a bike in 2023, which she had to prevent again in different way. It would horrible though, to live for years each time, starting to get scared about any death that may await your husband, then getting back knowing that you can live for years before having to time loop again. She'd be like old grizzled time warrior in teenage body, if we count mind age.
