Short of a lucky guess, I don't think that it's possible to predict the next chapter. So many unpredictable variables are in play: Eri's reaction, Harima's reaction (okay, his rage is easy to predict), Tenma's reaction, Akira's reaction, even Tougou's next move (remember that he has a crush on Tenma... will he challenge Harima?).
But I'll try anyway. Harima will be mad. Tenma will be flustered; maybe she'll be confused or upset that Harima chose her over the manga since she doesn't understand the true motive yet? She might even call him stupid for it... or she could be touched and impressed. Or both.
Eri could do almost anything. She could turn and run off, with Harima, Tenma and/or Akira in pursuit (not to mention the camera crew). She could take shelter in her role, cackle evilly and declare that Harima will lose the girl, too, and have her henchmen drag Tenma away... but that's silly. Or Eri could silently fume while Tenma acts confused over why Harima chose her and suddenly interrupt by shouting out the truth to Tenma; this is the most exciting possibility but also the least likely because it would trigger the climactic confession from Harima... then again, it would be great for the DVD.
And there's also the possibility that we could get a fast forward past the cliffhanger, but as this was almost as explosive as the Slap, that isn't very probable.
Entertaining chapter. Looks like Swampstorm was right about Akira getting Tenma into the action.
I wouldn’t be so sure about this, since we can’t be sure that Eri changed the script on her own accord.Quote:

Considering Akira had a plan involving Tenma and the manga, it’s probable she told Eri to change the script, and didn’t tell anyone else about the changes.
I agree, here.Quote:

Who knows? The makeup she’s wearing makes her expression look darker than it is.Quote:

Indeed. It’s nice to know that Eri is better at acting than Yakumo, although I already knew this after the play arc.Quote:

Onigiri is in a coma for three reasons: first reason, neither side is interested; second, the plot never focuses on it; and, finally, neither side is interested.Quote:

I didn't notice Tenma suddenly changing her opinion of Harima in this chapter. Harima looks no closer to having Tenma notice him in this chapter than any other.Quote:

They’re filming a movie, after all, and Tenma is dense.
Why should Eri do this? Eri implicitly says that her friendship with Tenma is more important to her than Harima last chapter, so I doubt she’s going to do any shouting at Tenma.Quote:

Also, Harima’s confession would be outweighed by the melancholy felt by Eri, making Harima’s “rejection” of Eri the climax of the scene, not Harima’s confession.Quote:

Note how her eye narrowed at the top of page 5, just after she remembered that Akira told her that Tenma would help get a raw reaction from Harima. That was definitely her own decision to test Harima's feelings.Quote:

But Akira is not infallible, as proven in 156. Her reaction on the last panel shows that her plan may have backfired. Possibly. As you said, she is hard to read.Quote:

But it was unintentional. Harima still doesn't know about Eri's feelings. Eri, on the other hand, was fully aware that she was hurting Tenma's feelings.Quote:

That's a good point. Maybe he'll restrain his anger because of that. I suppose that he would then demand that "Eri-jou" release Tenma as she promised.Quote:

She might if she gets angry enough. But it is unlikely, admittedly.Quote:

It would be most exciting for me.Quote:

I think that Akira's plan went as the way she planned it. I dunno about her reactions, but it really is impossible to tell if it worked or not. I'm guessing her plan worked.
About Tenma and Harima.. We may see that Harima is really getting closer on proposing to Tenma. But there is a major problem....
...maybe she didn't quite get it...
Tsukamoto Tenma, the queen of misunderstanding. Confirmed.
Yes, agreed. Maybe Tenma wouldn't even get what Harima was pointing about.
One simple comment : I love the chap :D. At least now Eri would know exactly who is the most important thing to Harima if compared to his manuscript. Tenma > Manuscript. About the villainess. Up 2 ur guys lah to ensure who is the one who is more villain
How are Yakumo's eyes neutral and empty? Anyways, Trying to read Yakumo’s facial expressions isn’t usually a good idea, though; since her expressions are so neutral, whatever expression you see is bound to be influenced by what you want her facial expression to be. This goes for both of us, of course.Quote:

Looking at her face at last page we can say - she didn't undarstand.Quote:

She'll probably find out about the manga now and be forced to help out of obligation. Seems like a perfect plan that Akira concieved.But the immediate effect would probably be having Eri pissed but hiding it and Harima upset.
I doubt Tenma saw Harima's true feeling, even now. She'll probably compliment him on his acting or freak out with Harima at his destroyed manga.
Question everyone... I curious whether if Eri has already known that Harima is making manga, and we can see in chapter 214 she held it... And what with that script change? the D team was obliterated by Eri herself! The person which D team want to save... And everyone knows who can beats that gorilla power of Lala except Ichijou?
As far as i think there are two possible options of what tenma is going to react:
1. if she sees that this is a movie(like harima) she would think that this is on the script and dont care very much.
2. if she dont see that this is a movie, she will only be puzzled. And probably only ask eri why did you do that.
Also about the slap thing, can you stop, it its turning really supid
