, that
Seems like the author is taking some sort of pleasure in making the hero suffer. But I wonder how long the readers can endure it when the character they associate to gets new pile of crap dumped on his head with each new issue without anything positive happening?
Yes, I know, that the more pathetic underdog character is, the more impressive his raise becomes, but there really should be a limit to this. In Medaka such character is Zenkichi, but in there no particularly bad things happen to him - just things showing how useless and pathetic he is, while in here seems that only bad things happen to a hero with whatever the girl he tries to become closer with. It only seems worse because the guy is actually quite likable and nice and doesn't really do anything bad. I too wish he would just try to go with Eri because obviously caring for the other two girls will just make him more and more screwed up. KLGChaos as for the scene Spoiler for scene:

Considering it's only the guys love life that's in the dumps, that's hardly anything. Obviously Yuki only sees him as a friend. Didn't she just say in chapter 11 that she had a hard time believing in love because of what happened to her in the past? And you all expect her to suddenly change her mind within 5 chapters? WTF.

Spoiler for about Shou:
Sorry about the long rant but I dont think GE is as bad as people are making it out to be because I dont think Utsumi is being tortured that badly by the girls around him as much as a Yamato/Haruto and Utsumi is quite a likeable character himself

Dunno if you've been following early discussions about this chapter's raw but it's not really clear if she was actually raped. Many people think it was consensual, recorded and shown to some dorks by her former boyfriend, her rather "calm" expression when thinking about it supports this i think. I write this post for I myself like to think that too. I hope it's revealed in the future.

hmmm
You are probably right. Drama, good or bad, causes discussion and stimulates interests and sales.
If the two get together now, it would just be another Suzuka situation where silly things happen and the main couple takes 10 chapters to temperary break up, 10 chapters feeling sad, then 10 chapters trying out new things, and at the end back together. As far as I can see it, Yuki seems to be the only real ending here. Oh point of interest/inquiry: Some people had said that this was a massively popular oneshot before. And the success of the oneshot directly caused this manga to become a series. Perhaps someone can share some information on that oneshot so we can make some logical conclusions on future activites? Thanks. |
