Coulomb Fille

Just started reading this and I'm confused.... why can't he just get a frickin' haircut? He grows it out in the stupidest way possible and then claims to be such a loser because of it? This is the dumbest problem I've ever read in a manga.

He mentioned that it would regrow within hours.

He is a manga protagonist they get created with a haircut and it remains the same forever unless changing it signifies some deeper change in the protaonist, or sometimes after a time skip. (Switching between ponitails, braids etc. is sometimes acceptable though especially in shoujo.) He can' just decide to do it because it would make sense.

If he got a buzz cut, no one would know.

 I hope that the sequel comes out soon.

God damnit

Dueling spoilers!

Spoiler

Well, I'm not the kind of person who can judge a gun's calibre from looking at a manga illustration. The claim, although it may be a bit off from translation, was the that gun had little "stopping power"; presumably whatever it looked like it was actually a .22 or something. But whatever the calibre, it doesn't surprise me at all that some ex-scientist guy in terrible health who's probably never fired a gun in his life, let alone in anger, didn't score a clean hit. Presumably it was a shallow angle or even a graze, cut a furrow in his scalp and that's about it.

So that part doesn't bug me. But the ending bugs me.  I'm with B'Rat . . . her

Spoiler

beetling off like that

doesn't seem rooted in the plot or emotions to that point. It's just gratuitous. And Kanzo's acceptance of the whole thing was just, WHAT?! Oh, my dad's been involved and he says the company wasn't really being mean to her when they kept her captive and experimented on her, so I guess I'll just go along with authority when it comes to how they treat the one love of my life. Wouldn't want to rock the boat. Um, yeah, toss his whole personality in the crapper why don't we?
I don't mind sadness if it really fits, but this seems like just an ass-pull for a quick ending. To be less cliche I guess, they went for an ass-pull that's deliberately emotionally UN-satisfying; wonderful.
But the story as a whole was so compelling that I really, really hope the planned self-published sequel gets made and scanlated and mends this sour taste the ending left me with.

I've seen multiple people mention a sequel, but no sources. Where did you hear that the author plans to self-publish a sequel?

Spoiler

Glad they fixed it later by stating the gun itself was the cause. Or rather, I'm assuming it was a gun loaded with stun rounds, because any handgun that size and approximate caliber firing real bullets would puncture the skull every time.

It was a good, nice and sweet manga, but the ending is too much of a Diabolus Ex Machina for my tastes...

(Come on, why hasn't the author left a *normal* open ending by which we can easily imagine the continuation of their normal, quiet, happy school life, like for Angel Densetsu? The sudden heroine escape in the last pages is just for angst value...)

rushed ending to a very interesting series

Thanks for the translation. Also, want to slap the a** who put a fantasy tag.

Wow, a shame it was short though.

 

I really want to see this sequel.

The ending is a happy one isn't it?

Spoiler

Since she didn't have a fatal condition like in Dokuhime that lead the maincast to death, they just parted temporarily.

If you want to see unhappy/sad endings, read Dokuhime or Elfen Lied and compare their endings with this one. I'm not one to say that "love even wins against death" but rather "as long as they live and love, a man and a woman can always find happiness together even when they are apart" (could be hard for marriage and kids though) : )

I guess I'll change it to a "happier" ending XD

I have already read Elfen Lied and manage to survive with a whole heart (it was broken many times during the journey but luckily healed too). Its ending is befitting of the theme though which is why I accepted its ending. For this manga, I expected a "happier" ending but alas, it ended happily but not that happy for me

Decent journey, disappointing destination. Thanks for the scans.

There is a sequel right? RIGHT?! I want a happy ending in at least one of this author's works XD

Closure? What's that? Is it a food?







....Lol j/k
:'D

Shit, this has the same ending as Ano Natsu de Matteru... I want the sequel to end properly, w/ both MCs being able to love each other properly.

That was just too sad even though it ended at a sort of hopeful note with the promise of a sequel I still felt bummed out.

There's an epilogue, right? RIGHT? ;-;
