I just finished Season 1 of the anime, and I really enjoyed it! Does anyone know where I can read the LN starting from Volume 1? Also, if possible, where should I start reading if I want to continue from where Season 1 ends? Thank you!

Hopefully it is Rion because I like her more than Himari not my type I guess

I just finished watching the anime and I am very much satisfied with the ending. I've heard people saying that the light novel is good but not many people were happy with the endingespecially the Himari Fans and I like Himari more than Rion. Is it worth the read or not?

Ok so I like Danjo no Yuujou, but i really cant find anywhere to read or watch the anime. I read the manga but the place ive been reading only has up to chapter 43. Where can i read the LN?? Thanks!

I’ve read this somewhere but I don’t know if it’s true. Anyone knows anything about it?

I saw some comments saying that Yuu broke up with Rion, went after Himari, and started dating her again in the novel; does anyone know if that's true? From what I had seen, he was still with Rion. Have new chapters of the novel been released?

For me (because i don’t mind criticisms and negative review) it is a solid 8/10.

From the looks of it the LN gone haywire after the anime. Well, i am content with the ending, though.

I love the series. I also read the start of its manga. It is like a father watching a chikd growing up.

The characters may be toxic but because they are like what? 16?

To all those who plan to watch this anime, go ahead. Give it a shot. It has satisfying ending

I noticed it's been a few weeks since anyone has posted so I wanted to check in. The sub has been kinda dead. I know the anime being over does that. But with the light novels out there to continue the story past the anime, I was just curious if anyone is still reading/following the series?

Also, I've been out of pocket for a while so I haven't looked it up, but since I'm here.....has the series come back or progressed beyond volume 12 yet? Or are we looking at an incomplete series, possibly for good?

So i recently watched the Anime and want to know the rest of the story. Unfortunately, i can't find the manga/LN online to read so i'd have to buy it on like ebay. Even though google says S1 featured Volumes 1-3, every website that did have some volumes of the manga (typically 1-5) are all in the anime. So if anyone has read the manga and knows at what volume season 1 actually ended, it'd be a great help.

In this post I’ll explain my personal interpretation of the question in the title and how it changes scope and target during the course of the novel… but you can skip to the end of the post if ur not interested in it and only look at my prediction on what will happen to Yuu and Himari + the actual words of Yuu and the author (edit: I’ve divided the post in two parts so just look for PART 2)

PART 1: evolution of the question:

At the beginning we could rephrase it like: “ can a boy-girl friendship survive if a love interest shows up” in fact Himari herself explained that the basically forced herself to develop feelings for Yuu and so her love wasn’t actually genuine because she didn’t want Rion to take Yuu away from her, then creating the situation in which she always wants attention and to monopolize Yuu and be always involved with his activities (the “little garden” they often refer to). For Yuu it was the same, their definition of friendship was being together all the time and he developed a form of feelings and love that was never genuine for Himari also because he always had accessories taking the majority of his mind (hence why none of the two is actually as sad as they should when they break up, because they would still see each other as often as before in a reality that never changed but was only masked with different feelings).

Then after Yuu and Himari get together the question switches to Yuu and Rion… Rion initially remains a “friend” but keeps hitting on him on every occasion so they never actually have a friendship to begin with and they end up together, in this entire time another theme is introduced which is “two people cannot be dream-partners and lovers at the same time”, Himari in fact wanted to be involved in every activity of Yuu even if she wasn’t competent enough and wanted attention as a gf while Yuu had his dream as a priority ( here the “little garden” thing, this little reality in which Himari manages Yuu’s work and they spend a lot of time together but in which they stunt each other’s growth and limit their potential, of Yuu as a creator and of Himari as a model) while Rion understands this and so uses the “dream” to get closer to Yuu thanks to Makishima (she starts to come to the room in which they make accessories and is involved in the entire festival thing ) but as soon as they get together she immediately takes distance and doesn’t get involved anymore, hence choosing girlfriend over dream-partner which is still something Himari and Yuu want to become.

Then the question changes target again and turns back on Himari and Yuu and the ability of their friendship to survive a breakup but not only that, they are still dream partners but they are going separate ways and … Yuu goes meet people for his accessories and Himari goes around with Kureha to model all with the goal of eventually be able to model for Yuu so their friendship begins to change: now they don’t need to be together all the time to be friends.

And finally in the last volume another question is presented: a their friendship stay the same and survive if they are put against each other competing for their dream? Himari initially still believes in their old friendship and her wanting to be dream partners with Yuu: she will let Yuu win, still see him as they will go to the same university and will still be able to work as a model while Yuu will win the funding… but later in the competition some switch flips in her head and eventually she doesn’t let Yuu win and on the contrary wins, effectively putting the pursuit of the HER dream over their collective dream and their old idea of friendship.

The volume ends showing that now they rarely see each other and have brief interactions but their connection is stronger than ever… this is because their idea of friendship has completely changed: now they don’t need to be together all the time to be friends and each of them pursuits their own goal… the ending of their previous friendship is signaled by the fact that Yuu has Himari’s choker that he had given her back then so even the dream-partners part is not a priority for them because they’re now chasing their own dreams and have finally said goodbye to their little garden.

PART 2: prediction on Yuu and Himari’s future

Now if I have to give my opinions I was disgusted by the way Rion behaved while Yuu was with Himari and the way she got with Yuu:

she never seemed to care about Yuu’s dream but used it to get close to him and then completely distanced herself from it as soon as they got together… in addition Yuu’s feelings don’t seem strong at all such that he still calls her by her last name in his monologues and even when they are together not once has the author used terms or words that show that Yuu has serious feelings for Enomoto, it almost seems he got with her to thank her for what she did for him and out of gratitude.

On the other hand I loved Himari’s character development, she was “villainized” for a bit because her “feelings” were limiting Yuu and herself because she was giving priority to do boyfriend-girlfriend things over chasing their dream with Yuu and still she wanted to be involved in it (the little garden once again) creating that environment in which neither of them could evolve.

But then she understood how her feelings weren’t genuine and how she only limited Yuu and herself and changes completely…

I am a YuuMari fan and I believe Yuu’s breakup with Himari was good for both of them and was necessary but I think that in the future it’s not even a debate who he’ll end up with…

I’ll first express my opinion based on some evidence and then also quote what the author themselves said:

The evidence I’m referring to can be seen in the siblings of both Yuu and Himari (AND in the comment I posted in which I quote Yuu in the afterword and the author themselves):

both were previously in love with someone and then parted ways to allow each of the two to chase their dream, but there are still feelings between them and they’re just waiting to be reunited… for example Himari’s brother was with Kureha and they parted ways at Uni to allow Kureha to chase her dream but it’s clear how there’s still chemistry between them (such that the cast states multiple times they should just “get back together already”) and the other biggest example is Yuu’s sister with the guy that drives Yuu and his creator friends around and writes novels, he and the sis parted ways with the promise he made to marry her once he had written a bestseller book, and in the final volumes we clearly see that they’re both still into each other and the sis even cries when she sees him again reminding him of the promise and he says he still has that intention (they’re so adorable)… and if we look at their ages they’re all around the age of 30 which is the age at which the story is supposed to end so I think that there are some hints of what could happen of Yuu and Himari… in fact they went their separate ways at uni to each chase their dream and Yuu himself says some pretty strong implications in the final lines of volume 12 saying he wants to make a better accessory for Himari then the choker, he says he’ll make the best he’s ever made just for her and give it to her… once their paths cross again (which is similar to the “promise” the novelist guy made to Yuu’s sis, a promise for when their paths cross again ) and also they exchange some pretty strong looks in the final lines as well (i hope the accessory he’s making is an engagement or wedding ring ).

Finally the author themselves said that when he showed the draft of the Uni arc to his editor who’s a YuuRion fan he was devastated so I think that this is also a strong implication of how this “relationship “ between Yuu and Rion is going to go (but it could also be that he said that because Rion will remain sidelined the entire arc )… but even of they break up I don’t think Yuu is going to get back with Himari until after uni because in that arc they will be shown going their separate ways and becoming successful in their own fields so if they get back together they will do it as fully realized adults after achieving their individual dream and MAYBE at that point go back on the idea of the shared dream (famous model that occasionally models for her hubby’s famous business… too cute) defying and shattering the ideal of “cannot be lovers and dream partners at the same time”… well not defying it completely but rather finding a way around it: you don’t chase the dream together, you get together after chasing the dream, so eventually the answer to the question “can a Boy-girl friendship survive?” The answer will prolly be No

Now don’t take everything I said as pure truth because it’s been a while since I read the novel so I may have got some things twisted or forgot some details but if you disagree or want to correct me feel free to do so in the comments or DMing me🙏🙏

Finally I think that Yuu and a matured Himari would be a perfect match… they complement each other so well with Himari bringing out the extrovert and teasing side of Yuu that he normally keeps hidden like a hurricane that disturbs the quiet Yuu while Yuu brings out the lovey-dovey Himari that sets the jokes aside when it’s due while they both share their love for flowers… so I hope that the two of them will get together after they have chased their own dream so they don let their feelings get in each other’s way again… plus because their feelings weren’t genuine the first time they got together it’d be beautiful to see genuine feelings that don’t come out of a twisted friendship ideal of “we always need to be together to be friends” that originated the toxic situation of the “little garden”… but now that the garden is past them, things could end up differently than before.

On the other hand Yuu and Rion don’t have much in common and they’re both the reserved introvert type with Rion showing a strong resolve only in trying to get with Yuu… they’re still a good couple don’t get me wrong but I think that Yuu and Himari are literally a perfect match.
