Kaguya-sama: Love is War Chapter 249: Release Date, Delay, Discussion

Chapter 248 of Kaguya-sama: Love is War, titled “Kaguya-sama wants to break up,” is the latest installment of the manga.

This chapter was heart-breaking. It was so hard to see that Kaguya was having such a tough time. She wants to leave the Shinomiyas and be with Miyuki, but that might put his life in danger.

Many of her extended family also rely on her to rise to power, so she can’t abandon them either.

Will Miyuki find a way to get Kaguya out of this mess? Will they really break up? We’ll find out in the next chapter of Kaguya-sama: Love is War.

1. Chapter 249 Discussions and Predictions 

In chapter 249, we see how Kaguya has been put in a tough spot. Even though she desperately wants to run away from her family and live with Miyuki, the Shinomiyas are far too powerful to deal with.

She tearfully asks Miyuki to break up, but he’s still confused about what he must do.

In the next chapter, we’ll see what Miyuki has to say to Kaguya after she has asked him to break up. Miyuki will not back down that easily, and he’ll sure think of a plan to save Kaguya.

Hayasaka and the other council members will also help him rescue her. Miyuki might not leave for America to stay with Kaguya. Another possibility is that the couple might find a way to escape to America together.

Regardless of what happens, it’s not going to be easy to pull Kaguya and Miyuki apart.

5. Chapter 248 Recap

Kaguya’s situation has changed dramatically following a turn of events at the Shinomiya household. First, she drops out of school, and now, she’s suggesting Miyuki to break things off between them.

Miyuki’s face holds a terrified expression as he asks Kaguya the reason behind her decision. Kaguya reveals that the recent events have shaken the Shinomiya family’s foundations.

As a part of their plans to mend their business relations, they plan to marry her off to a powerful family.

Kaguya refused this proposal at first because she couldn’t just sit back let her family use her as a tool for their gain.

She declined any inheritance and was even ready to leave the Shinimiyas for good, but when the less powerful members of her family approached her and asked her to reconsider, she was stuck in a tough spot.

They told her how they supported her all this time because they believed that she would rise to power one day. To her, the Shinomiya family is an unbelievable burden to bear, and she cannot let go of them easily.

Kaguya is also confronted by her older brother Oko. He tells her that he had to leave the love of his life for the sake of their family too. He threatens her that he will ruin Miyuki’s life too.

Oko tells her that he previously drove Miyuki’s dad’s business to the ground, and he would do the same to Miyuki if he interfered with their family’s matters.

We also find out that on his death bed, Kaguya’s father still considered her his daughter and wanted to hand over the cosmetics branch of the company to her.

Miyuki asks if she really wants to end their relationship and if she’s really okay with everything. Kaguya replies that she wants to cherish their memories together and plans to take over the company one day.

In the last panel, we see a tearful Kaguya once again asking Miyuki to break up.
