I know. I just wish they asked a better manga-ka to do her story. PS: Rinko's manga is the best one so far.

I was just thrown off by the focus/opening of Manaka's and Nene's stories. |

At least the Rinko story the guy has a personality and a background too him, heck he even has a name that's worth remembering! And it's actually from his perspective which is all for the good in that sense, help's flesh out the overall story better. Nene's is too short and inconsequential and in Manaka's I can't even see his face. And why do I get the feeling when they are introduced in Rinko's story they'll be far more interesting then in their own? Given the overall set-up I'm guessing Rinko's story will be by far the best out of all of them, which is all to the good since I like her personality of not backing down in contrast to a male lead who's able to handle it, so far anyway

it's kind of weird how rinko's is the only one with real interaction of characters even though all 3 come from the same material
so i guess it's one of those let the author decide how he wants to proceed? kind of annoys me still how manaka and nene are both monologues i also like how in nene 2 the guy just ruined the mood at the critical point, i just noticed that |

Well ther eis no question that Rinko Days is better than the other two, its just too early to talk about having a plot advantage ove rthe others.
Nene days though sucks pretty clearly, artwork is horrible, the monologue kills it all, worse it has no tension as they are already going out (though thats the main point of Love Plus in manga you would it always works better to give some kind of prelude to all that) and the chapter length of it is more suitable for the gag crap rather than a real manga. There is nothing good about Nene days, and I am very likely to drop it soon. Manaka is annoying because we do not see the main male characters face and like with Nene he almost never speaks (he does say "Oops" but thats almost the only thing he says) thats why he horrible lacks a personality. And like with Nene we are already thrown in into the middle of relationships which also kills the connection with the characters a little just as the romantic tension (though again thats not really a problem in LP game) But Manaka days has the artwork so maybe it will turn out for the better eventually and the chapter length suggests that it will be a manga rather than a gag. The humour also seems fine. Rinko on the other hand has the artwork, main male has personality and is an active character rather some pathetic faceless figure in the background. So yeah Rinko days is a clear winner so far but we still cannot talk about plot advantage at this point. |

It's a bummer about Nene. They should have had Kawashita do it, that would have been bloody awesome, especially since Nene's character type is more forward like her heroines have been and her art is amazing.

I actually preferred Suzuka to KNIM, which I feel moves way too slowly (and is getting a bit ridiculous with all these throw away harem characters).
Enjoyed the first chapter of this. Probably won't read the other two if the protagonist really is some faceless guy with no personality.

I'd say read at least the first 5 chapters of anything, and then check back on their discussion threads once and a while. |
