Fans are about to witness a new pairing in Kaguya-Sama Chapter 226. With the introduction of the new Class 3-A homeroom teacher, Hikaru Kobayashi, a new love story is about to begin.
Avid fans of Aka Akasaka's brainchild are starting shipping Hikaru and the Class 2-A homeroom teacher, Komari Machida. As these two show an incredible spark in the previous chapter, readers are about to see more of them in Kaguya-Sama Chapter 226.
Fans are now eager to see more of Hikaru and Komari after their interaction at the end of Chapter 225. According to Epic Dope, it is not far that there will be more scenes featuring these two as the spark that they have will surely grow brighter as the manga continues.
The new installment's title, "The Teacher's War of Love and Brains," seems to focus on the newfound love between Hikaru and Komari. So, fans can expect to see more of this future couple as they share more possible romantic moments that will be incredibly witty.
On Reddit, the manga's fans can't help but get excited about seeing this new pairing. Reddit user HeirGaunt said he likes the new teacher for the same reason he loves Ai Hayasaka.
He described him as someone who is down-to-earth and relatable, a real man who will show the students some common sense. Max Koffee added Hikaru is a character to empathize with, though he is rooting for Yu Ishagami and Tsubame Koyasu to be together.
Sweet Baby Alaska agreed to see more teachers' love stories in Kaguya-Sama Chapter 226, commending Akasaka for not focusing his story on Kaguya and Miyuki's confession. He explores "real-life stuff" in a hilarious way, leaving fans wanting for more.
Kaguya-Sama Chapter 225 showed Hikaru in the Suichini'in smoking area, OtakuKart News noted. He was from the public high school, transferred to the academy under the principal's order.
He would start teaching at Suichini'in beginning this year. Hikaru couldn't help but noticed the school had a lot of famous and wealthy students.
As he was about to begin his work, he heard the boys talking and started eavesdropping. He opened the class's door a little to listen to them properly and saw Miyuki with Mikaido and other students.
They were asking Miyuki something, to which the latter only said he would not answer their questions. Mikaido then told him something about sleeping with a girl.
Fans are about to see more of Hikaru when Kaguya-Sama Chapter 226 drops on Thursday, Mary 13. Sadly, the manga will be on a two-week hiatus due to the upcoming lengthy holiday in Japan and Akasaka's personal break.
