Rent-A-Girlfriend Vol. 23 — Manga Raw / Buy Official

Kazuya’s time on the waterslide with Chizuru is a suffocating experience, heightened by the constant pressure of his unspoken feelings. Yet, the moment he regains his composure, Ruka strikes, cornering Chizuru with a psychological assault meant to claim Kazuya as her own. Ruka goes so far as to fabricate evidence of their intimacy, planting seeds of deep doubt within Chizuru’s composed facade. Meanwhile, Mami orchestrates the chaos from the shadows, manipulating Ruka’s desperation to ensure that any chance of Kazuya and Chizuru’s union is incinerated. Kazuya, caught in the crossfire of these two women, realizes that his dream of a simple, honest confession has long since evaporated. He scrambles to salvage the situation, but Mami’s final move—revealing a hidden truth—threatens to dismantle everything he has built. As the tension reaches a breaking point, the facade of the ‘rental’ relationship begins to crack, forcing everyone to face the ugly, beautiful reality of their true feelings.
