This chapter was predictable and unpredictable at the same time. The part that I knew was coming is that Yuno was totally lying the whole time. I'm sure a lot of you had previously guessed that no matter how much love is present, the chance at being God is incredibly tempting. The fact that there was such a love/obsession also made the smex obvious as well. It told you that was gonna happen WAYYY back. The part that I thought was kinda funny was that she had already become God. This was unpredictable in my view. I also think that the ending is not going to be a happy one. Of course, if you've been reading closely, you knew that. This manga is incredibly grim at points, and the twists are beautifully executed. I would love to be as talented as this writer some day. Good luck to me, and peace~
P.S. (In response to this)

What she gained by "going back in time" is being able to stalk/love him again until she had to kill him to possibly repeat the process. The entire manga has strongly pointed to her being completely insane obsessed with him. If the plot twist which was heavily hinted at by information the main character uncovered (and this is different than predictable by the way), you guys should have been able to guess yuno's motives as well since they were there in every damn chapter.
Of course. My question would then become, "If she really loved him in the first place, why not either allow the unexistence or let/force him to kill her?" There's probably so many answers to that.

A good twist shouldn't get overshadowed by the heroine's tits. What the author needs to do is give the readers all the necessary info without them noticing, then put it together in a shocking way. And failing that, they at least shouldn't drop so many hints and delay the revelation so much, the audience starts to doubt the twist they're not even meant to expect. Then it just feels horribly anticlimactic when it happens anyway. It's not good writing just because it makes sense, that should be a given.
I liked the chapter regardless, but I'm really hoping there's an actual twist waiting somewhere down the road.
This seems to be a little over-analytical of something that's supposed to be purely for fun. And I'm not sure about calling Yuno a "heroine" in the first place. Her motives were obvious and if she tries to kill the "hero" then she's bridging.
