Kaguya-sama: Love Is War Chapter 241 has just been released, thankfully without a hiatus this time. In a sense, the newest chapter put things into perspective, telling us that, at least, Kaguya is probably ok - even though she has stopped attending school and isn't very responsive to her friends and boyfriend's messages, so we cannot be entirely sure until we have seen her.

The seinen manga by Aka Akasaka is reportedly at its last arc, making this a bittersweet time for fans who have followed since 2015. At the same time, the imminent ending is good news and means that, while the forthcoming third season won't necessarily be the conclusion, a final season would be able to tie all loose ends at a different time.

For now, however, fans of the manga will likely just want to know that Kaguya is ok, and see her and Miyuki get their happy ending. That being the case, we got you covered. In the sections below, you'll find our handy guide to Kaguya-Sama Love Is War Chapter 242, including the newest chapter's release date and time, so that you can catch up with the latest updates first!

The school dance ended in a bitter tone, with Kaguya and her family disappearing after the fall of the Shinomiyas' empire. We find out that most of her immediate family members got away with their crimes, implicating those who worked for them instead.

Chika, Miko, Ishigami, and Miyuki spend the following days worrying about Kaguya, who has stopped attending school. Although she reassures Miyuki that she's doing ok, she also warns him that she will not be able to reply much to his texts, making us wonder how truthful she's really being.

Her friends and boyfriend wish they could do something to help her, but, for all its over-the-top elements, the manga is still somewhat realistic; all of them eventually recognize that they're only students and can't do much when it comes to adults' power games.

At the school gates, Miyuki encounters Kaguya's half-brother who asks for Hayasaka. Miyuki refuses to say anything about her, but still accompanies Un'yo Shinomiya in his car, as it is the only way for him to see Kaguya. On the way, they have burgers, and Miyuki is surprised that such rich people eat in drive-throughs as well.

Kaguya's brother asks about her and is baffled when Miyuki shows him photos of her thriving at school, smiling and laughing. He recalls that she had always been cold and calculating before, desperate for a place in the Shinomiya family. In the end, he says that Kaguya is no longer useful to him - could this mean that he will let her free to be with Miyuki? At this point, we can't help thinking he must still have some sinister motivations, but we can only wait for Chapter 242 to find out.

Chapter 241 concludes with Un'yo showing Miyuki his and Kaguya's brother, who is very elderly, bed-ridden, and likely close to death. But why is he showing Miyuki this? Things are getting really tense and interesting, and we hope that the next chapter will have some answers about Kaguya's fate and her family's intentions for her.
