I dropped Kimi no RAGE Machi like it's hot. I hope Velvet Kiss doesn't go that path, tho.
Judging from frubam's reactions, though, it seems that it really is a disservice to wait for twenty months only to find out that "nothing happens".

There is nothing wrong with listening to other people's opinions before trying something out, of course!
But yes - there were a fair number of readers who did not enjoy the idol arc. But it was not enough for many of them to put the manga down - though some did, of course.
Again though, this is an anime and thus the medium change will allow for different things. What comes across as slow in the manga due to the monthly releases could come across as super fast in the anime format!
Or of course the whole thing could be a colossal failure.
But for now I am giving it the BOTD and very much looking forward to the adaptation attempt, as for me what I felt the enjoyable parts of the manga far outweigh what I thought were the unenjoyable parts.

Agreed ... I still think Hanazawa Kana could do a good job (she was the first to spring to mind)....
