The main hero wants to see a cute film that makes cry and calls the girl a b***. That's so dissonant in terms of character build-up. Anyway, I don't like vulgarity.
It was actually interesting to see the differences between the first chapter and the oneshot. The author has added the right ingredients to make a long series and he has polished so much the first chapter to be perfect. Everything was cleaned, fast-paced and gorgeous. But while it is well executed, the topic itself does not thrill me. For a few years now there has been only one romantic comedy in Jump, if they continue that, it is hard to tell for me which one between Kagami and Nisekoi will be dropped. PS: What's the cross in his hair? |

You've got to read the raws and see what words are actually used, I guess. We don't know if the translator make that choice because he really said a Japanese equivalent of that word or if the sentiment is being emphasized more than what was originally there.

I'm not really sold on this. Really cliche, a lead girl who's completely unlikable, way too much yelling at each other in every panel, a nice girl with no personality who's basically there to get hurt at the end, etc. Very few people can do tsundere right... sadly, I don't think this mangaka has the ability.
A lot of authors don't understand that what a character like Naru great was that she was only tsundere at certain times-- like when Kentaro did something perverted (even accidentally) or really cool. The rest of the time, she was a normal person. All these new age tsunderes are basically just one dimensional archetypes who have no personality outside of the tsundere type. They don't know how to turn it off... and it's made worse when most of them are tsun 90% of the time with very little dere to counterbalance it.
