Description: |
Nitta Arata is a typical 21 year-old junior attending college of science and engineering at Toaru University. He is bright, he's in the engineering program after all, but he definitely is from a working class background. He has been working his way through college for the past 3 years without major incident, so being swept up in a warped experiment of an equally warped professor was the last thing he expected in the second half of his college days.
One day, Arata received a letter asking him to meet someone whose initials were "N.H." at a relatively secluded location on campus. The letter looked suspiciously like a "love letter", but Arata had his doubts. More likely it was a cruel practical joke perpetrated by one of his buddies, especially when the initials matched those belonging to "Nogi Hatsune", also know as "Miss Engineer", the reigning heartthrob of the engineering department. Why would somebody like her be interested in a nobody like himself? The short answer was that she would not be interested, but why take the chance of missing out? So there was Arata, in ultra-cynical mode, waiting at the appointed location when he was suddenly grabbed from behind! His last thoughts as world turned to black was that the gloved hands covering his mouth and nose reeked of ether... |

Yeah, you're certainly due your opinion, but you must not be very familiar with the author. NAKANO Junko was exceedingly successful and popular, I doubt she ever had a story cut short.
As you said, this is a romance, like most romances, a lot of the other story content in them is just meant to support the main storyline, not be dragged out to center stage.
Oh yeah... I forgot about this manga. I read it years ago and i don't think ever finished it. Now that i have... I only have this to ask. What was the point? What was the professor's goal in all this? I mean sure we got a nice romance out of it but... Why? I think what happened is that this got axed and the mangaka was never able to finish the plot that they wanted.
This was my first manga as well
and is one of my favourites
at first, while reading this, i initially hated her and wanted to kill the professor. come the ending, i was kind of happy they got together honestly, but the way it ended left a lot of things unsettled and left me a bit disappointed.
One of the first manga I've ever read. I didn't like it that much the first time, but now I find it quite good, I guess I had to get used to manga first. I'm also really sad to learn that the author passed away. I would have never known if I hadn't decided to reread this manga on a whim.
Rest in peace Junko Nakano
The one thing i'm curious about, is whether or not they ever find out that B-shock ceased working. And how they would react then.
Meh, good read. The ending was a little bit disappointing, but still...Ok, I guess. =/
romance development is a little bit weird, but still a good monthly (i rarely read manga now >.>) romance dosage for me <3
This manga,however,made it possible with some auxiliary means (no spoiler here ) to strenghen and lessen the clashes between the characters, thus making it enjoyable to read further even without monthly waiting times and 52 chapters in total waiting for you!
Nakano Junko Rest In.Peace
Hope this is as good as read as this authors other work Hetakoi.
i wish i can make a watch that can tell if your gf/bf is cheating on you
