whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy you didn't marry her? why my chest hurt so much, please make them together already

 

[goronyanpai]

Something like this :
Mitsuhide -> Kiki
Mitsuhide <- Kiki
Mitsuhide ? Kiki
And when the time comes Kiki is getting married. Mitsuhide will chase after her again.

 

[ArpanaR]

Wow! I had no idea that Mitsuhide will have a trauma about the time his sword was taken away, but looking back at his true nature, where he obsessively cared about Zen, I think that’s plausible. He’s not in sync with himself, having trouble even resting, not being able to protect that what’s most important ( zen & Kiki)....that’s why they’re the same...but this heart-2-heart in this chapter was awesome! And it was pretty cool of Zen when he said he wants to walk a path to a certain place (destination) and Mitsuhide was always able to protect that (path)way ....?

 

[SapphireDemon]

OMG is it just me or did Obi

Spoiler

acknowlede that he's in love with Shirayuki?

on page 3? Isn't that the first time he's admitted it to another member of the group? That seems big.

 

[DarkLordAlfie]

Was this chapter meant to be closing the book on mitsu/kiki romance, or opening it back up again? The language they use is so criptic I honestly can't tell.

 

[jak]

I'm gonna be super disappointed if Mitsuhide and Kiki don't get together.

 

[riflow]

Just....accept the proposal you bullheaded idiot. Ohmygooood

 

[Ingra]

What...wait...so...because of the trauma he had, he now fears so much to lose Zen, that he's not going to marry, so he's attention is undivided with family matters........................(srly O-Õ)
Oh well, i better get used to Hisame x Kiki then. OTL

 

[MistyBlue]

It'll probably take another hundred or couple hundred chapters before Kiki and Mitsuhide actually get together. ?

 

[Alyssa_DESU]

From what I see, if Mitsuhide sees marrying Kiki is like Marrying Zen then his trauma of not not being able to protect Zen could also be an eyeopener for his feelings if he won’t be able to protect Kiki at one point too.

There has been consistent foreshadowing that Mitsu also have feelings for Kiki so I don’t understand what this author is doing. Do we have to wait until Kiki gets in danger too for Mitsuhide to realize his feelings? He might die of all that trauma!

 

[Emilysara]

Mitsuhide has PTSD? That's an eye opener. Still rooting for Kiki X Mitsuhide! All Mitsuhide needs is some therapy and a cold one and he will be all better!

 

[Ju2c0c0]

Yeah, just as Zen said, I'm tilting my head in confusion since Kiki's confession chapter

 

[oriaxailaht]

I definitely agree with the idea that Mitsuhide had PTSD. It's very subtly hinted with highlights in his lack of sleep, inability to communicate how he felt during the Begara incident, and Zen's insistence that Mitsuhide sleep with company rather than by himself. Props to the mangaka for portraying this without dramatizing it.

But in relation to Kiki's proposal: I don't think Mitushide rejected her because failing Zen meant he couldn't protect Kiki. I think we all know how much Mitsuhide respects Kiki and her combat prowess, so he'd have absolute confidence that she can defend herself and Zen. But it's more so Mitsuhide is insecure that because he failed to protect Zen (aka failed to upkeep his promise), that means he's not worthy of being both a knight and also a companion to Kiki (as both co-workers and potential lovers).
