You can always stay tuned to these sites to watch your precious next episode as soon as it's streamed or posted: Crunchyroll: the best place to watch on time and with no ads or pop ups, Or either Animeultima or Gogoanime that are fast to post them too but with possible adds and pop ups. And with next episode, the anime would have covered already half of the manga (which is now at chapter 220) |

I find this comment very amusing, and also the comment after where the person who commented added that it's a noticeable thing in Chihayafuru to find many contradictions in every character... sensei didn't comment .. I also find Chihayafuru exceptional because of these contradictions, and I always look forward to when they are cleared or explained I wonder if other fans do notice at all... |

Another interesting episode that you can watch now online on almost all anime sites we choose for you the safest: Crunchyroll And the fastest to post for free as usual (with the price of pop ups): Animeultima So episode 10 is expected to cover the rest of chapter 110 + chapter 111 Suetsugu sensei as usual tweeted some screenshots and commented on them, and her comment about Koishikawa san caught my attention: "Hidemasa Koishikawa is a positive monster with a different type than Taichi and New." -She said... "Monsters" is a theme she used to show more of Arata's and Taichi's power ...in the latest chapter the word "demon" was invoked again... Koishikawa's monster is a positive one, but Arata's and Taichi's aren't ... Japanese fans are eagerly waiting for Arata's demon (that Arata mentioned on chapter 205) to show up again, they say that that's the true shape of Arata's power separately from his grandfather's .. Arata also mentioned once that what he lacks is heartlessness ...how is all this connected? Good lack making theories for those who do. For this week she tweeted yet again another sketch of Chihaya that I'm sure we will ses as a wonderful finished piece of Art in the future, for now here is the sketch: |

ใใชใใใใใชใใ……๏ฝฃใจใๆซๆฌกใใใฏๆใใใ] Which I roughly translated to: " As of February 2020, up to 43 volumes of "Chihayafuru" have been published. Currently, the main character, Chihaya Ayase, is challenging the Queen to compete for the highest female Karuta rank, and the story has reached the peak. The remaining time until the end of the series is about two years. "I don't think there will be more than 50 volumes....", says Suetsugu." LET’S DO SOME MATH: + If volume 50 is the last one, then we are waiting for volumes: 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49 and 50. + With 4 chapter per volume, we are expecting 3 more chapters for vol 43 and 24 other chapters until volume 49 + 4 other chapters for the probable 50th volume. = In total: 31 more chapters. And if we are getting 1 chapter every moth this is 2 years and 7 other months until the end of the manga. The 1st match in the Queen tournament took 2 chapters (218/219) + chapter 220 was the break before the next match, if the same will be applied to the rest of the matches, we can assume that every match will be at least 3 chapters long = then 15 chapters will all be about the matches (including chapters 218-222) so excluding them, we expect 10 more chapters for the rest of the tournament. So? what will the next 21 more chapters be about? Japanese fans have been talking about an upcoming tournament after the Queen/Meijin one where Arata and Chihaya will have their rematch (they call it Oe CUp?) and also about the entrance exams … What do you guys think? (Source for the Interview: https://www.businessinsider.jp/post-207730): the rest of it is just about what Suetsugu Yuki wants from the fund and how she & Co. are doing it etc. |

Lot has been left for another season (hopefully soon) Watch them online on: Crunchyroll Or GOGOANIME Some of sensei's comments on these episodes -that I want to keep- are: She didn't comment on episode 21. She did not comment on this episode, she rather posted two new illustrations of Chihaya, Arata & Taichi, see them Here. Most of the comments here are about the reaction of the president of the Chihayafuru karuta fund/Foundation and fans in general concerning Taichi's confession, the rejection and his leave,the president is crying and saying "Yuki-san is an idiot", lot of comments repeat it jokingly too... But she didn't want to say anything else about an important episode like this: And rather comments on this: And sensei posted what she could draw of her promised illustrations for every week: |

YET, neither Madhouse nor any other official source said anything about an upcoming season or the fate of the "source material already available to be animated " as the manga still has +100 more chapters as of today.. Suetsugu Yuki herself was the first to express her wish for another season, fans' calls followed and one particular anime account calls for more actions to make their wish clearly known to Madhouse and Co. they called it "CHIHAYAFURU AGENDA", a set of actions to get #chihayafuraseason4 trending on twitter! Everyone can participate, tweet and retweet, express your interest in Chihayafuru and let the studio know how profitable another season will be for them. Click on the link above for more details... |

Chapter 224 is still about Chihaya and her strategy to defeat Shinobu by understanding the cards and the story of the little figures, Looks like there is not much events but Chihaya is starting to understand more and could finally “hear the voice of the cards” so she could take few of them. There is nothing at all about the Mejin side. |

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Chapter 225 early spoilers - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - → Chihaya keeps doing her best, → Arata is leading by 1 card → Suo notices Yukiko-san. → Taichi and Hiroshi visited Omi Jingu Shrine and the content of his e-mail to Arata is probably revealed in his monologue: "I don't know if Arata notices, but Suo has a handicap and he wants people who love karuta to lose..etc" so Taichi prays for Chihaya's and Arata's victory: "I wish chihaya's dream will come true \" "May she not shed painful tears /or do not let her cry in pain " ← hmmm? Who made her cry in agony though? he thought back to past memories together and he sees Chihaya's illusion (the one Rawaa mentioned) →Taichi was going to leave as it is, but other worshippers were talking about Chitose coming and that she intends to return too so he hurried to look for her. →In the end Chihaya lost by 3 cards...she was sad that she didn't get closer to Shinobu, and she thinks that she doesn't know what to do to win, she runs outside to cry, → Arata notices that she looked worried (or he himself gets worried not sure of this) → Arata's result is unknown... |

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - New illustrations by Suetsugu Yuki to support the fight against Covid19 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - With the aim of spreading positive & useful information to society about the virus and the ways to fight it and fight the negative effects of the quarantine on people's mental state, Suetsugu sensei collaborated with the team behind this website (https://covid19sci.com/) and decided to help by drawing short manga panels explaining the useful information. Let's look at her messages already shared by some news magazines like (https://sirabee.com/2020/05/06/20162319753/) The first illustration is about serious-looking Shinobu and Chihaya (they look great don't they?), this reflects their current state: they are fighting in the Queen tournament. The second is about making bread at home, we might be afraid to go out to buy bread but a solution exists and Chihaya is helping, she is not good at making Valentine Chocolates but she can help in making bread...as for why she is crying, Suetsugu says, the karuta high school national championship is cancelled so if it happened when Chihaya wanted to participate (in her 3rd year) she would cry so much and she wouldn't know how to spend time without karuta, it's a chance to try new things. The third one is about Shinobu chan who wants to keep playing karuta and test her strength, a solution is also there: There is the online app for competitive karuta where real players from all over Japan challenge each other (there was a first national competition this year too) Looks like Shinobu chan isn't happy because she ranked 6th :D The last illustration (which is translated by a Japanese friend ^_^ ) is a ususal Taichi & Chihaya moment as translated.. and I wonder why because it doesn't look like anything unusual: it is what we already know, Taichi is in love with Chihaya, he wants to see her & to check on her, Chihaya doesn't reciprocate his feelings and for her they just are very good friends and taking the picture is just an idea to let people know that it's alright during quarantine ..the author could have used another character but I think Taichi is more popular so more people will be more interested if he is there... What matters most is that Suetsugu sensei really works hard to help, Respect! so let's all do our best in not getting infected and not infecting others, hopefully, this pandemic won't last for any longer and stay safe everyone. |

Suetsugu Yuki has been tweeting about the cover for days, many designs were proposed and finally one was accepted, it's the only one where Shinobu chan has her under-eye-mole, a mistake Suetsugu made but rectified later to mark the official cover. On another note, today, in a tweet, the author mentioned a 4koma dedicated to talk about who would have been Taichi's board-guy if he won the Meijin qualifiers to be included with the volume.

Suetsugu Yuki is a lucky one though, her editor gives her green light to write at her own pace and liking and I believe this is great news for us fans because what's a better story than a story written completely by a comfortable mangaka? |
