(And that aside, I've known a lot of popular girls who were not so dissimilar to Yozora, honestly. It really all depends on whether you can find a group of friends who can accept you. Popularity just grows from there.) I'm not sure if you're actually disproving my point, though. A big message of the show is that it takes an outcast to really understand other outcasts. The fact that Sena, Kodaka, and Kobato all share some foreign blood is just one of the links that separates them from the crowd and makes them outcasts (because they're "not like other people"). Yozora, too, has always been "not like other people", and perhaps that's why she was able to become friends with Kodaka back in the day. I guess how literally or figuratively you take this particular connection is up to you.

She become friend with Koala is because she's presenting herself as what she want (in the past and present) She want to be manly and dressed like a boy, joining Koala brawl and befriend him. In the present she pretend to not recognized him in the class room until she get rightful shower of dirty water bucket at summer festival, and cut her hair after realize her chance to keep Koala for her self is almost slip to other girl. One always can choose to be what ever she/he want in her/his life, whomever he/she is, but in this bitch case she choose to be ..well...bitch, that make me want to give her my Full Force Chi - Kungfu punch or plunged some Sledge Hammer like Mjolnir on her face.

I'm not saying that I think she's blameless or a victim that we should only feel sorry for. But, at the same time, I don't think she's a villain that deserves nothing but anger and blame either. She's a sympathetic character in this story, just like all the rest of the flawed cast.

In actuality, I'm hoping she doesn't end up with Kodaka in the LN because her character doesn't need love/romance. She already has trouble with NORMAL friendships, let alone romantic relationships. She needs some therapy and then maybe after a few years, she can consider romance. If she does end up with Kodaka and then everything turns out hunky-dory then well... -_- it's one of those cliche powaaaa ooooof laaaaabu endings, which really depends on how well it's written.

Too much thinking about Yozora will get you even more confused.
Well, the story is written from the perspective from Kodaka and not from Yozora. The past is the only remaining link she has with Kodaka and that's a trigger she always try to push to get closer to him. And this is somehow sad, because as long she still pushes this trigger she is not able to form any new relationships at all. She will become an outcast within a group of outcasts. There is nothing much more else to say about her based of the infos at the end of Vol 7. However in Vol. 8 that topic is not important any more because this new volume focuses mainly on Kodaka and how he is able to step forward. Spoiler:

The positive reviews on Amazon was mostly on the renewed focus on relationships and introspection (from Kodaka). Mironics, I think you tend to focus more on 'events' rather than the messages that these events manage to bringing across.

Quoted from the Vexed Scans homepage:
"Haganai volume 8 (There will be enough bricks shat to build enough homes for a small African village after I get around to releasing this)" We should collect money so he changes his occupation for only translating for us. |

I've often thought that this would be an interesting use of Kickstarter - to donate to get a book translated. Perhaps setup so the money is paid to Yen or someone on the condition they employ said translator. Just a thought...

I just tried to read the afterword of Vol. 8 (if's safe, no spoilers needed).
The author mentioned that he is ill, having a pancreatitis. He has problems with breathing, so simple tasks like going 100 meters to the next supermarket is troublesome for him, his stamina is down. The following characters are from the last page. 著者 平坂読(ひらさか・よみ) 100メートル先のスーパーに行くだけで息が切れます・・・・・・。歳ではなく病気で 体力が落ちているせいだと思いたい。 イラスト ブリキ 夢の中でも息が切れます・・・・・・歳ですね。 Last edited by mironicus; 2012-07-07 at 11:40. |
