They're overreacting. The ecchi-est scene in this chapter is the one with Momo in the bath (I'm sure the spoiler pics have shown pretty much all of it) which is really not that different from what we had in the old manga (tankoubon) or Mayoi Neko Overrun. I'll never understand why people are fine with violence yet are easily offended by some (beautifully drawn) breasts/nipples.

Like Kanon and i want to say more of it :
I REALLY prefer well drawned nipples like ones in TLR volume or Seikon no Qwaser, Queen's Blade ...
And i hate so muche breasts covered or you saw 95% of it in anime/manga but never the aureola or nipples.
Hey, mens and womens have nipples, that the problem to show them if you draw ecchi ? <_<

I just thought some people don't like it because of the age of the girls.

You've got a point here, I tend to forget how young Momo is. I'm not sure that's truly the reason they won't do it though, but it's not like I can speak for them. Besides, the only difference between this chapter and the old WSJ chapters is the nipples. That's all.

Johnny · 2010-10-03, 22:09

Seen the chapter and just insert nipples where they would normally not be drawn. Don't really see a major difference, but to each his own I guess...

Freeter · 2010-10-03, 22:52

There is no difference aside from the non-censored nips. MS's body was not ready for the TLR.

Blushing Yami in the beginning was love

And of course, Momo kicked her game up to 11, even giving Rito service while protecting her man

New TLR and OP, feels so good

As you've probably noticed, some off-topic posts have been squashed.

Let's try to keep on the topic of the TLR:D manga itstelf and not speculate who's going to do the scan or question their apparent morals about nipples...

...or mention nipples seen in other series...

Figured there wouldn't be any differences. Momo's fight scene was simply amazing, she does everything with style.

As many people thought, it was a sequel indeed, but I guess you can also call it a spin-off, since the main females will be Yami and Momo this time around. While reading the chapter, other than what the previous manga made rather clear (in my opinion), I realised Lala can indeed no longer be a female lead, in terms of romance. She's made her point rather clear to Rito, and Rito has also told her he liked her back (twice). Lala is fine with it, and she has no problems with sharing him with Haruna. In fact, she even said this chapter both of them can marry him. My thoughts on Haruna are the same. With Lala being fine with sharing, there's no real competition anymore. Of course, Haruna may not agree to the idea of sharing, but even in the case that Rito would opt to choose Haruna only, Lala would also be fine with that. So, in terms of romance, I think both of them have already burned out.

Of course, I'm not saying they can not longer add to the series. But I'm expecting them to take a back-seat this time around, since the other heroines could use that focus and development. Personally, I think having Yami and Momo was a really good idea. Yami seemed to have a very interesting back-story, which, in the previous manga, went underused. That and, even though we know she has a thing for Rito, that was never seriously developed. In fact, amongst all the heroines, she probably was the one with the least amount of romantic development. Yami aside, Momo was, in my opinion, the best choice. There's no girl in this manga whose personality contrasts Rito's as much as Momo's. In addition, unlike the other girls, Momo is seriously aggressive. She has no qualms when it comes down to being flirtatious, a tease and even direct to Rito. So, I think she can seriously tweak this manga a notch. Of course, I'd like to see her develop as well.

I also agree with Hanazawa Kana voicing Mea. There's never enough Hanazawa Kana, and Mea does look exactly like Suou.

Anyway, I hope the coming chapters are as long as this one, but I'd probably better not get my hopes up.

justavisitor · 2010-10-04, 09:07

read the chapter....lol all the hype that this manga has become borderline h...nah, imo, the art is more or less the same...it's just that the author is willing to put more "detail" on the character's body, that's all

And I really really like this new story and the new main heroine...yami is great as always, and momo's fighting scene will definitely earn her more good points from the readers

Too bad that this is a monthly series tho

blade82 · 2010-10-04, 09:46

if its true that it'll focus on Yami then we can count on Blackcat return and maybe Sven

digi.amuro · 2010-10-04, 13:37

Just saw the raws and what a great way to start things off. Momo and Yami are a great replacement imo for Lala and Haruna, since they've pretty much gone stale in the development department, while both Momo and Yami are very interesting in their own rights and create a more intriguing dynamic within Rito's relationships. Also, if what I read earlier is true, then Momo's guidance of Rito to the harem end will make things that much more entertaining, not to mention delicious Yami plot and some Mikan on the side, lol.

I was going to say I'll be missing Lala, but I think Momo has topped all of her previous exploits.

Well, I was hoping this would be better than how TLR was towards the end. I felt it got really bland and repetitive.

Comartemis · 2010-10-04, 14:53

You know I've just noticed that Nana and Momo are lacking their own entries on TLR's Character page on TV Tropes. Anyone feel like rectifying that? I'd do it myself but I never paid any attention to them in the original series.

Shiroth Beautiful fighter. Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: England, UK Age: 37	Just checked out the raw and.. Spoiler for Chapter 01: There's Haruna. Pretty much the usual TLR antics, though it looks pretty serious in the last few pages. Shall have to wait for the translation to work out just what's going on. Doesn't mean i can't enjoy the eye candy though :3, with the bath scene with Momo easily being my favorite. This chapter needs a lot more Mikan though. Oh and i'm liking the new girl quite a bit. It's so good to have this series back. <3 __________________ MyAnimeList Twitter

I already noticed Momo was standing right on top of Rito's junk when they were in the bed, but what I didn't notice is that Momo's panties were off and Rito's boxers were pulled down. She was about to rape him I shall pay closer attention to details next time. __________________

winhlp32 (¬‿¬) Join Date: Apr 2010 Location: Boyzone	Spoiler for Summary of Chapter 1: - First 50 pages usual TLR hijinks. - Momo and Nana registered into the school. There is a new character, whom I've forgot the name of. - Momo decides that she wants to try to give Rito a harem ending as she too likes Rito and realised there's no way she can get a piece of him unless she's part of a harem. - She wants to eliminate a potential threat in Yami, who has the mission of killing Rito, by making Yami a part of Rito's future harem. She tries to cajole Yami to become a student at the school as well, which Yami declines. - Bunch of possessed boys are attacking Rito, whom Yami and Momo make short work of. - Some evil(?) voice coming from one of the possessed boy noted that Yami, being a killer, did not kill any of them, declares that she/he knows the 'real' Yami, and that she should start killing again, starting with Yuuki Rito. The end shows a panel of the new girl.

Spoiler for Chapter 1: Momo is hilarious. I don't think I've ever seen or heard of a female character aspire to make a harem for the protagonist. But, it looks like the title refers to both Yami and Momo. Yami with her name and background and Momo with her dark intentions...if you want to call it dark, I gotta say, Lala's proposal is tempting. Haruna and Lala, they are a perfect combo. __________________ • Anime List \| Manga List \| Manga Thread Template •
