Special A Manga ends.

Hurrrr nii-san~

Hurrrr nii-san~

I covered this more on my old blog but since the manga finally ended with 99 chapters I figured I’d add some concluding thoughts. Honestly, Special A felt like it should have ended 30 chapters ago. I had gotten tired of the repetition and I actually dropped it at chapter 94, then I heard it was ending so I picked it up and read the last 5. :roll: The thing with special A is a lot of the relationships/pairings are resolved midway through the manga. Once we had the Fin x Ryu thing, that was pretty much it. The final chapter sort of goes over what everyone is doing and it’s as expected: Megumi x Yahiro, Kei x Hikari, Tadaashi x Akira, Jun x Sakura and Ryu x Fin. There was nothing surprising and there was some bullshit about Hikari marrying Kei. Honestly the last little arc about “hikari moving away” was obviously some B/s to tie into the fact that she will “never leave Kei until she beats him”. I mean come on, 99 chapters and you wouldn’t let her win at least ONCE? How could you hate the main character so much Minami sensei …..(´・ω・`).

Do I think SA was worth reading? Yes. Do I think it was worth reading all the way to 99? No. So if you’ve pretty much read up to somewhere in the 80s and given up, you don’t have much to look forward to and you can probably “complete” the manga mentally in your mind as nothing important happens anyway and we only get an anti-climatic ending. Pardon my ignorance but was it because the manga was cut short? Or was this REALLY the ending that the mangaka was aiming for? :?

  2. I haven’t finished reading the manga yet (I’m right before the stupid moving away crap), but I think it should have been wrapped up around the time that Kei’s grandfather “accepted” Hikari or whatever (god I can’t even remember because I’ve been so bored). That would have been beeter instead of creating some random new conflict to finish it with.

    It feels like the manga-ka didn’t really know how to end it when she started (all those standalone chapters with characters that we never saw again), so she might have just come up with an ending when she finally ran out of stuff to do.

  3. So nothing really special happened? Not even a kiss at the last chapter? I was hoping for one.

  4. they kissed earlier in the manga hence my whole like “if you wanna stop reading after the 80s might as well, as nothing else happens”

    there was a…hug. lol

  5. I’m on the last few and yeah, this seemes pretty much like the least interesting way to end it that she could have come up with.

  6. Again, I didn’t missed anything then, not that it matters since I can’t remember anything.
    I hate it when some manga keep going on for volumes (Angel Sanctuary) even if the problem can be resolved in 7 chapters. -_-

  8. They didn’t even get Clannad-style procreation by handholding? I feel robbed.

    Maybe it was more of Dragonball Z syndrome. The plan being to ended it 20 chapters ago but the publisher threw more money.

  13. nice i like very much special a
    but i don’t have time, i watch special a twice a wik
    coz i’m study already..

  14. so depressed that there’s nothing “more” in the last chapper. I mean, hello, that’s the last chapper, right? At least, there should be st like “several years ago…” (suppose it would be within no more than 5 pages for that sec.)
    I agree that the plot’s quite repetitive, but at least I had hoped that I would gain st worthy in the final chap. But that’s all I got, so sooooo depressed!

  15. damn!!! I meaned chapter :P and “several years later” :P sry ’cause I felt disappinted that don’t care ’bout anything else

  16. I actually like the manga a lot well that’s my opinion actually i’m now in hapter 96 i’m reading it online but the continuation is not yet posted so i really want to read it an u tell me where the 97 to 99 chapter can be found online? I like SA

  17. ..uhhm..actually i realy like the manga series, and i’m looking forward to it’s ending.

  18. i think SOMETHING should happen, especially since i carried on reading from 82, and am waiting for 98 + 99 to be released online… i was in the midst of praying (‘please let something truly amazing happen, please please please etc’) and searching for those last chapters, but after reading this (and other negative comments that hint at the ending), i’ve lost my enthusiasm. cry.

  20. it’s really sad that it finished that way…i mean when i started 2 read it i felt like, omg this finally it’s going to be a good manga!… but i would’ve like a more deep finally or last chapters!… like don’t the ussual crap of i like u and that…i don’t know i think that every conflict that happened had a really disney finally (like a very fantastic good finaly) everything kind of fixed without doing much…if the resolution of the problems is troublesome it’s kind of more interesting i think..lol…i really thought that was worth reading and i love the fact that they got the courage to said kiut things things from the start 2 each other :) and they kissed a lot lol!

  21. hello………i’ve already finished s..a. up to chap 99…..i’ve read it from the start and finally it ended now,,,well its kinda sad fore evry manga i’ve read to end but i think s.a. has a great story after all….. many good things happen on the later part and i’d rather prefer it than the anime…… the ending is not that satisfying and i really wish that is the mangaka can extend it to 100 exactly…but anyway…it’s great after all
