It sucks that the anime turned out so janky but at least we still have the manga! (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
they wanted to make it more of a comedy so it looks more like a colored manga in a way
Hey Yalls,
I noticed no one linked the raws in a while, so here’s a Chinese translation I found.

Maybe B-1 told the doctor that Eiji is the other personality, thus “treatment” would be getting rid of Eiji. It would explain why he wouldn’t be able to divulge any information.
Highly likely and scary as hell
Lol I haven’t been reading this at all, just recently came back, skipped the bs between chapter 20-something to now and finally see the relationship I wanted flourishing. I might hoop back into reading this tbh. ヾ(☆▽☆)
I wonder why Nagi went back to being an idol, maybe her and the author had a divorce and she is finally free.
Damn I kind of wanted Kyouichi and Hanashiro to get together :/
Hopefully the parent don’t get back together. （￣へ￣）
Okay I have a theory! So they reference the book, “Death in Venice” when Trevor says, “I don’t want to become Aschenbach”
Ref: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/dear_gene/uu/d_v-1-chapter-5/pg-6/
In Death in Venice, Aschenbach is an older man traveling in Venice who notices a teenaged-boy, named Tadzio, with his family. He is captured by his beauty and begins following him. Eventually though, a wave of illness strikes the city and Aschenbach chooses to stay instead of return home because of his love. Aschenbach has a dream that he will die in the near future and Tadzio will die shortly after. Aschenbach catches cholera and does indeed die.
As Trevor said, there are vague parallel in the story, so it could be interpreted that Gene died.
Also at the beginning of every chapter, there is a snippet from the journal that says, “Dear Gene, you are my god, eternal love forever”
Ref: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/dear_gene/uu/d_v-1-chapter-5/pg-1/
This, of course, call back to when Gene said the same thing to Trevor. The first part could mean anything, but the second part about their love being “eternal” definitely points to Gene having pasted away.
The only thing disputing the Gene death theory is if he returned to living an Amish lifestyle, which I highkey doubt. If you have any additionally theories defo leave a comment, I’m interested in see what other people thought.
Sorry for how love this is (tldr: I think Gene died)
I'm afraid I'm gonna complete your theory and confirm that your guess is probably correct, as much as I don't wanna do it. In mangaka's previous work, Rumspringa, that is a sequel to this storyline, Gene's family still misses him and talks about him as a distant memory, so he definitely did not return back home. Does it mean he's dead, I don't know, I sincerely hope not, but well, here we are.
Thats true and Rumpringa happens I believe several years after since we see that the uke in rumpringa is pretty young and just lost his father here in dear gene which allows us to deny the theory of Gene ever returning to his amish lifestyle
just wonder how and when he died, cause trevor seems to be already ""ok""" with that, so probably was short after they got together... ╥﹏╥
Historically in the US, there was large HIV/AIDs activism due to the epidemic in the 1980s. It's possible that Gene's (supposed) death may have something to do with this time period. However, I may also be over thinking things.
It is possible like I can not see other reasonable death or leaves like I would hate it if he was killed off for a really dumb reason like murder or smthg
omg.... I'm really not prepared for the hurt... this is too cruel.
The fact that there are pedophilia sympathizers in the comments genuinely shocked me. Harada clearly displayed in the story that no matter how either party felt, this was a toxic relationship built on an imbalance of power. Neither of the parents directly stated they were homophobic, but concerned about how abuse at a young age affected their children.
Well said
THANK YOU! people can be really dumb
Bro everything is popping off!!! Tbh I don’t think the teacher realizes the mom is next level crazy. She organized her ex-husband being jumped, she’s built different. Idk if she’ll take the money but the teacher definitely ain’t making it thru next week.
