So... Something's coming up next update? Any ideas, guys?
Option 1: We sex the Yumi. After all, the kiss was a year 1 event. Knowing how much of a troll Sel is and how much he hates constantly being asked when it will happen, it'll definitely be a monkey's paw when it happens.
Option 2: Chapter 1 had a common refrain of "something is buried beneath your feet." We haven't had a big reveal of what it was, but we had a couple of events that hinted at it, including a big one in the Nodoka lore drop this update. In a past event, Manic Nodoka dragged Sensei beyond the barrier and started digging for something. In this update, she says she'd written a letter to herself and buried it somewhere the gods can't find it, which could be interpreted as beyond the barrier. This update we may get the contents of that letter, which will likely have a major reveal.
Option 3: Something bad happens to Sana. At least, bad from our perspective. Maybe she poofs, maybe she ascends, maybe she dies horribly. The gods definitely didn't want Akira to finish Sana off on the beach and directly intervened to stop it. This would imply that they have IMMEDIATE plans for her.
Putting this all together (I am almost certainly wrong), Chika, kicking off her villain arc, goes after Yumi at the Halloween party, and Sana tries to talk her down, only for Chika to punch into Sana's chest, grab her spine like some kind of fleshy Bat'leth, and uses Sana as a bludgeoning weapon against Yumi. Everyone watches on in horror until Tsuneyo finally breaks up the fight. Yumi is traumatized. Chika is cursing in Tagalog. Sana is dead on the floor -- briefly. She then poofs back into place right next to where all her blood and gore still is, freaking the fuck out, and Makoto shouts "I KNEW I WASN'T FUCKING MAKING IT UP," a statement that makes zero sense to anyone but her and us, the readers. We are ushered out of the room so Geoffrey can clean up the mess, only to find out that he had a fatal heart attack while trying to stand back up. RIP Geoffrey.
