Is that Heroin Hero I see in ch 9 page 1?

Make all that drama about the couple in volume 2 coming to like each other a lot. And then have their supposed child in the future talk to another person who she probably has a crush on mention how they divorced the in future.

 

Why? It just felt like such a low blow to something that was so sweet, there was litteraly no point.

Really hope more comes soon. =/

the 1st couple is interesting, the rest...well..so so

the Story went down hill after 2nd couple introduced

 

Overall, IMO , the story (i refer to 1st couple interaction) is interesting, the minus is ..art..I didn't dislike CLAMP-like art, but at last make it cleaner or ...for the best..change artist to Kitaumi Tsuna (Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei:TsuikoHen) or Yabuki (To-LOVE-ru)

 

just reach chapter 16...

soo..she's stay over night and didn't get to laid her hand on him, and the next morning she's got..another kiss ? or.."love stab" down there?

 

i dont understand because only her leg showing.

>switch Houkago Plays art with To-LOVE-ru's

It's been so long since I felt true, genuine rage like this. 

There are multiple spectrums on which you can judge visuals in a work. One being clean vs messy, another being expressive/visceral vs generic/sterile. 

I might have argued with you about the merits of this particular art style in conveying the sort of hazy, steamy, warped state of mind associated with adolescent romance, despite it straight out looking weird at times. There's discussion there. 

However you've done me the favor of confirming straight out that your taste is just unfathomably bland.

I feel sorry for the translators but chapter 54 was so boring I skipped right through it. Most of 55 too.

 

Seriously not a fan of tabletop under the best of circumstances, really don't want to read about all those dice rolls and modifiers in excruciating detail. Pretty much ever. Thank goodness they ditched the minutia in the last chapter.

I really wish this manga went back to romance route.

 

All this table games aren't that interesting. For me,that is.

I don't think the TRPG interferes with the romance per se. Romantic aspects have always sort have been an undertone to whatever nerdy stuff they're doing/discussing These chapters in particular aren't romantic because they're instead focusing building on established characters as a larger group of friends - by having them all play a game together- and I really like it. 

Romance by itself is good but providing a broader social context makes the individuals feel more real and rounded, and makes the romance that much richer. Plus there's still bits of romance sparsed throughout.

As for the TRPG itself: Maybe you have to have experience with them? I find it pretty interesting.

Frankly, i almost forgot how much I love this series...

IMPOSSIBLE

Happening.

WARNING this manga is so sweet it may give you diabetes 

How often do you get a manga that describes the fantasy that goes into tabletop? Awesome ^^

now that volume 2 is out, i kinda liked it better than volume 1, i just dont like those type of tsunderes

Not all pushy people are tsunderes, since the latter are usually predicated on not being honest with their feelings. And though she does occasionally like to find roundabout ways of being romantic, they're together from the beginning. I don't think she ever really denies the fact that she loves him, nor does she say she hates him, or even find him annoying all that much (she's usually more afraid that he finds her outbursts annoying) though she does tell him what to do. She's just really aggressive, and the guy is fine with that. That's cited early on as why they feel they work together. 

 

Volume 1 is sort of about the awkward stuff in the middle of a relationship where you're trying to find out how forward or naturally you can act around another person- and there's a really good mix of tension with a relaxed atmosphere that makes it very... evocative I guess is the word? Volume 2 is solid too, but it really is more of a straightforward falling in love story by comparison. 

Spoiler

I did not see all that coming. It all happened pretty fast so I kind of had to stop for a sec.

GM is playing God again, godamnit

YES!!! Ty so much for the two new chapters World Three!!!!

Why haven't I read this sooner?! 

It's so good. =V

Damn you GM.

Damn you.

Subtle

Lmfao! Volume 1 chapter 9 Page 1! He's playing heroine hero from South Park

It´s kinda bland. And about the "reference". I´m 99% sure is made up crap. Is more like "things-you-feel-like-you-experienced-playing-video-games".

Don´t really mind the crude art, but there´s nothing to make me read more.

Haha this idiot doesn't get any of the references.

that 3 volume story was..... Strong

Thanks World Three!

Hahaha, she's a great GM :D

GM IS GOD
