If, on the other hand, all he did was buy pictures of fictional kids, he did less. You do realize how much that sounds like "I'm a big fan of the "Big breasted sluts" series, for its dialogues...", do you? |

Say what you will. I find the series to be very touching with great theme and character development. I honestly dont even like loli. My friend forced me to watch the first 3 episodes of the anime, but after I understood what was going on I couldnt help but continue to add my analysis to the series. Personally it's one of the best stories I've seen in a manga.

I personally find the series more funny after realising who voiced Rin and Daisuke: Ami and Ryuji from Toradora. Having the image of a junior Ami treating adult Ryuji like a toy is funny.

well I think if you are a fan of manga you can easily be sucked into any genre sometimes by simple boredom. I read immadoki and boys over flowers just because my wife bought them and they were sitting on the shelf and I had nothing else to read. But i read the first volume and wanted to know how the story went so I read them all. I'm just greatful she isn't into any yaoi stuff T_T

This series is actually relatively harmless. The lolicon fanservice is overstated. The really disturbing content is Rin and Reiji and their manipulation of the people around them. Very unhealthy to emulate if you ask me.

I'm surprised that Aoki lasted this long with Rin around. You have a kid who's wise beyond her years at some levels, and yet in other ways, she acts her age. Combine that with a creepy guy relative (cousin? Uncle?) of hers, and I wonder how any teacher can handle Rin without a nervous breakdown.
Spoiler for Aoki:

Aoki's too good, and he's really progressed from the shy sheltered teacher he started out as. Even though he didnt exactly mean that as wanting to do that stuff with Rin, it was for the sole purpose of protecting her. His dedication to his students is unbelievable. Seriously, a total bamf.

When you see the issues the 3 kids (Rin, Mimi and Kuro) have, you wonder, "Lord, have today's kids escaped physical labour of yesteryears, only to have mental problems in our time?"
Still, bear with it for a few more years, Aoki. The Kinomotos did end up well. Edit: The later chapters have taken me out of despair. Looks like their journeys would be filled with friendship and adventure.

Okay, so...
I'm new around here. Yeah, hi. Normally I don't watch anime nor do I read manga, but SOMEONE had to start talking about it on the smash forums, and SOMEONE had to get me hooked on this anime, along with 70% of the Link smashers. -_- Anyways, I love the progression between the whole Aoki/Rin dynamic. Aoki started off so shy, but the way he reacts to Rin throughout the series changed in such a pleasing way, although it's good to see he's still taken aback whenever Rin starts getting kinky with him. Spoiler for Aoki and Rin:

So the same guy who introduced Waffz to this anime/manga introduced me. xD
I've really fallen in love with this story. I'm a sucker for awesome love stories like the one between Aoki and Rin. The fact Aoki has become a more assertive teacher and is no longer afraid of his feelings for Rin is just epic. As I began reading the end of the 4th grade term and beginning of the 5th grade term I was sort of upset how Rin seemed to have forgotten about Aoki, I was upset when she deleted him from her phone D:, and was really glad to see how she reacted to Aoki commenting on how the other boys made a better match for her. That made my day. |

The girls' fifth grade has just began. I'm glad that folks continued reading the series despite the relatively weak "first year" arc. The plot really picks up in the 4th grade. The 3rd grade arc really gave me the chills, given the few chapters I read on it.

Well, seeing as how he has no life outside the school, and is rather blind to the two teachers who are interested in him, I wouldn't hold my breath on that.
I do hope that Rin doesn't grow up to look like her mother. Aki-san gives Houin-sensei a run for her money in the "tracts of land" department.

On Houin-sensei, she's one of those rare Miss Fanservice that has a flaw on her body. She is fat, although it can still be hidden by her clothes. Hey, at least the chins are not popping up... yet.

You can't deny his influence in her late changes, yeah, Kuro also, but Shiro isnt indifferent to Aoki. I don't know what the mangaka will do with this history, but one think is sure, at some point one of the teachers will take the initiative, Aoki will not.

Shiro probably wants to put her life in order first, before thinking about love. Her previous growth is becoming aware of feelings, and using them to help herself instead of rejecting them.
