Fuufu Ijou%2c Koibito Miman. Chapter 80 -

The central conflict of Chapter 80 arises when a third party—often a staple in this manga—interacts with Akari. While Jirou has made his choice, he is not yet secure in his relationship with Akari. When he sees Akari interacting with another male character (often Minami Tenjin or a background character showing interest), a sharp pang of jealousy hits him.

This serves as a narrative device to prove to the reader (and Jirou himself) that his feelings have genuinely shifted. It is no longer about the "Marriage Practical" grade; it is about possessiveness and genuine romantic affection.

Shiori's earlier scene all but confirms she is stepping aside. While this will break the hearts of Shiori fans, the narrative needed this. The "will they/won't they" between Jirō and Akari has been dragged out for 79 chapters. Kanamaru-sensei finally pulls the trigger here, and it feels earned.

Score: 9/10

Fuufu Ijou, Koibito Miman. Chapter 80 doesn’t advance the plot through big events. It advances it through emotional honesty. Jiro is finally connecting the dots. Akari is preparing for heartbreak. Shiori is seeing the writing on the wall.

We are barreling toward the endgame. The question is no longer “Who will end up with whom?” but “How much pain will we feel watching the inevitable fallout?”

The chapter picks up in the immediate aftermath of the cultural festival arc. The chaotic energy of the confession attempts is gone, replaced by the heavy, exhausted silence that follows a storm. Jiro, Akari, and Shiori are emotionally drained, but the story smartly doesn’t let them retreat to their corners.

Instead, Chapter 80 gifts us with one of the most mature conversations between Jiro and Akari in the entire series.

After months (years for us readers) of misunderstandings, jealousy, and physical tension, the two roommates finally sit down to talk—not as a "practice couple" or as crutches for their respective crushes, but as two people who genuinely care about each other’s happiness.

One of the standout elements of this chapter is Jirou’s character growth. For a long time, fans have criticized him for his indecisiveness, but Chapter 80 shows a young man who is finally starting to look outward. He isn't just reacting to the girls around him; he is actively thinking about what his actions mean for their futures.

There is a specific moment in this chapter where Jirou pauses to reflect—not just on who he likes, but on who he is hurting. It is a level of emotional maturity that signals the story is moving into its endgame phases.

To understand Chapter 80, you need the context of the cultural festival arc. In Chapters 78 and 79:
