Aria likes to boss others around and even if in the later volumes she mellows down a bit I still didn't like her much with her trigger happy. I still like Riko the best among 4 girls and Reki second. Shirayuki is too obsessed for my taste even though she is nice and caring but dangerous yan.

It's like he expects Shirayuki to just dedicate her life to him (and that is what seems to be the case...) Aria is also very childish.. to the point that in novel 8... that moment made me laugh for quite a while... And for a person that is in the Inquesta branch, Kinji is very very dense in matters of romance... I mean he overhears Aria talking about A-chan, K-kun and such, but still doesn't get why his friend Shiranui wanted him to hear that.... |

What!? Kinji doesn't seem to have asked something like you said from Shirayuki from the very first volume to 9 imo. If it's fighting, seriously you can't have a partner who won't risk their life to complete the mission together with you, can you? Aria and Shirayuki are his partners so they have to support each other or else they'll just die, and they fight against international crime syndicate that even superpower countries can't take on... Imagine you're a police and your colleagues abandon you right during gunfight against a terrorist because they don't want to bother saving your ass, when it's not even suicidal decision... It's that kind of relationship, and it's also job and well, more than just "friend" whom you'd hang out with. If it's something unrelated to mission. He tries to depend on himself. Shirayuki indeed tries too hard to take care of him that it makes his life more difficult. Kinji is indeed dense and doesn't seem to reciprocate Shirayuki's affection. But your complaint is a bit off-topic. You can complain how dense Kinji is but bashing him about deceiving Shirayuki in vol. 10 is just ridiculous. I wonder if you really read the novels thoroughly after all. |

Only read till vol 7... (and slightly on vol 8)
Vol 9-10 I have no idea what happens... other then something worded deceivingly. Then again I am biased towards Shirayuki's plight... (not going into other girls, I think I can dig up more but I don't have the time... well except for Aria) |

But our protagonist can think otherwise. Imagine your have a girl who likes you and will do anything for you, but you don't think the same way as she does to her and like someone else. It's that kind of thing. The thing you mentioned our Kinji begging Shirayuki to become "Touyama" is in vol. 10, it's spoiler and I can't see how the detailed description of how the coincidences that occur the moment Kinji asking her can deceive anyone who read it properly. The spoiler is really detailed... |

Well it just seems like he just shrugs it off as nothing, not thinking of a shock to someone that mentally unstable.... (It's like the happiest moment of her life, only to find out it was a hoax...)
And he seems to never see anybody in a romantic manner (maybe some, but he doesn't realise it himself probably...). Oh and that he has the tastes of a lolicon... Makes it kinda hard to like him. |

It's better than "Suzuka" and "Kimi no Iru Machi" to make Kinji dense, since there wouldn't be much drama, and it's not like we'll be satisfied if Kinji happens to hook up with the girl we don't like. Can you imagine what if Kinji hooks up with Shirayuki then breaks up with her for Aria? It'd be a repeat of "Suzuka". I don't fucking want that!!! And this series is kind of dumb anyway. The power level of people in this series are kinda broken. I dont know who's the strongest anymore. GIII was defeated by Sun Wukong easily but then Shirayuki can hold her ground against her in a quarrel. Also, how Shirayuki can cut the bullet in vol. 2 makes me doubt HSS's power. I also wonder if Aria could cut the bullet. But hey, if the author of this series said he doesn't know how to continue this series anymore in the afterwards of vol. 13, we shouldn't give much credit for his intelligent level and responsibility. The author does things like he was writing when he was high or so and couldn't think far ahead of what to do more. |

Its obvious that the author didn't plan ahead of time. He just write whatever hits his mind. Now his in a dilemma because he makes an opponent that shoots laser on her eyes. That's broken in this world's term because its freaking light speed. No matter what kind of stupid reason you give. You will get hit by light! that's IT!!!
and in later volumes Kinji is warming up to Aria so its like an obvious Aria ending. Though Kinji is still tsun tsun to Aria while Aria is dere dere to Kinji. Its funny to see an opposite thing because usually its the girl go tsun tsun but this time its the guy though its kinda stupid too.

Wait!? Is Aria really good at dealing with people? THAT ARIA!? Kinji should be able to learn languages easily with HSS, but we might never know if that'd work. HSS itself already defies all logics. And yeah, Kinji getting pissed off at Aria for shooting at him is kind of very late. Any fiction with superpower like this isn't something we should argue on. The result is all depended on the author's whim. I only follow this series because it's harem-type, fan-service, guns and cool final showdown setting, not really looking forward to something logical or drama. |

Guns are only cool if they're within a certain realm of logic- Deviation from realism is allow, but it's way too much now.

Holmes is still fine for me and even the youkai showing up to mess around is okay for me but the thing I can't tolerate is how ridiculous the author throw the scene out of plan. The power level is out balance!!! Once a strong opponent is easily outclass by the next opponent but it happens to be convenient that someone in the harem is a yokai slayer that can fight on par with the said crazy opponent then there is that statement that throw anyone out of their seats. The AUTHOR IS HAVING PROBLEM WITH THE SCENE ITSELF!!!!
"how will kinji dodge laser" the answer is simple impossible

And he fails miserably, that's for sure.
He should have written a better series by staying with the concept of Butei. Putting all these characters that despite being based on famous figures in history and literature underwent severe artistic liberties created a story that is completely chaotic.

Kamachi doesn't do crazy power ups except for very few character(or only one person. Accelerator is the only one comes to mind) Kamachi stays true to strength level which is one of its charm.
But the author here can't keep that in balance for most of the time that I want to question how the heck it ends up like that. I like how simple hysteria mode is before but not it just keeps getting crazier than ever with new moves and upgrades to it which is rather convenient because the author did say that hysteria mode evolves as the need arises. Though.... there should be limit right? or maybe I'm just being stupid with my utter hate for shounen power ups. I'm not really much of a fun from weak to strong or rather its delicate for me to like the concept of weak to strong. If its done wrong it just sound bulls*t for me.

wahaha
someone got angry for me saying I hate stupid shounen powers up or maybe for bashing HnA? but not sure..... well I like HnA and bashing the problems of it is also a part of me liking it. Liking the funny scenes but not the serious and techno explanation scenes though I like to point and make fun of it of how funny and wrong and mind wrapping those scene ended up with.
