Did we read the same chapter? I found this chapter almost as if was a goodbye to their crush, and the tears being those of regret, if they'd admited their feelings earlier things would not be complicated anymore kind of thing.
If this was the end, then what was the point of Chitoge running away? literally all other girls got their closure before the finale, this would mean Chitoge doesn't get her closure.
I think the tears were there as they both realised the possability of them being together had passed, and that Raku had fallen in love with Chitoge somewhere along the way. These are not tears of joy, but of a realisation that after all this time, the girl you liked confessed and you have realised you no longer love her.
Edit: I didn't post last week, but have to sa I was so happy to see Mari once again prove she was the best girl, Raku never deserved her.
Nice explanations ... i love those who reply with reason and details , not just simply yes or no.
So you think those are tears of regret ??. I read other manga, usually MC goes back to his childhood love rather than pursuing new love.
Then Rakku gonna reject her because he already found new love Kirisaki.
