At the start of the chapter, it is a normal goodbye with no extreme reaction from Natsu, it made me think that what Uzuki asked of him is something ordinary. It is indeed normal. Help me make up with my friend whom I had a falling out.
Since Natsu didn’t know the truth, he definitely said okay. So, Natsu is the illegitimate son and his mom is the mistress. I wonder though why Uzuki is asking him how’s their father. It isn’t like their father is living with Natsu and his mother. So, Uzuki isn’t living with their father?
Interestingly, I get the impression that he has a different ‘persona’ in school. Isn’t Meiryou a prestigious type of school? The school Takezou wanted to go into? I don’t think he’ll be in that school if he’s a known delinquent unless his father or someone had some connections.
I’m actually surprised that he wears glasses in school. It gives him a studious impression. Hehe, I’m thinking so Meiryou has two characters with moles on their faces. ^^;
I guess this will somehow make Meiryou relevant to the story. I’m actually wondering about that because Ichiei is already the rival in the Nationals. So, what is Meiryou’s role? I mean, will there be something more than just being one of the competitors in the Nationals.

The ‘love letter’ has a two sided effect. The bad one is that it has affected Chika badly that it is affecting his studies and performance = concentration. It isn’t good but understandable that he is keeping things to himself. Hm...did the same happened with his gramps?
I wonder if Tetsuki can solve this without the others knowing but then with this kind of series, it is likely that they will know and help Chika later on...after some scolding him about keeping it to himself – let us help you like how you helped us. Most likely, the resolution to this issue will be of immense help in their performance especially Chika.
The good one is Tetsuki now knows that Uzuki is on the move though it was Abiko who put that letter on his own. It made Tetsuki have a talk with Natsu so now, Natsu knows what’s behind the request. I wonder what Tetsuki can do at this point...ah, without resorting to violence while keeping things hush-hush. Hm..

Anyway, Uzuki and Abiko contrast in their way of doing things. Uzuki is quiet and tend to use pawns to do the dirty work. But then, that reinforces the theory that he has a public reputation that he is keeping clean.
Abiko tends to do things recklessly and with his own hands. He also has loose lips so he can be Uzuki’s weakness or rather, a possible weak link that can lead to Uzuki’s downfall if ever. From the last scene, I guess Uzuki is just bored = not having much fun as he mentioned so he wants Chika back.
Lastly, it’s too bad that there is no colored page to commemorate the series reaching chapter 100.
