Ugh, honestly, I feel really bad for her, and I hope this gets less depressing.

The end of chapter 9.5 was kind of nice, in a weird way.
People with various levels of social anxiety disorder, coupled with specific types of upbringings, can turn out like this. There's a lot of psych studies as well as methods on treatment for people suffering from these kinds of conditions.

That's family. You accept your child however she is, or you should, ideally speaking.

And one playthrough doesn't take more than a few real-life hours, so if anything I'd call her an amateur if she's only dated 50 years worth of guys so far. Try 5,000 if you really want to impress me.
Like that eh...I'd still count it as 3....since well...it's what you can do in that time period...


As self-destructive as Kuroki is though she's kinda cute....

EDIT: Holy SHIT....Is that Ef reference on chap 9?

I find her progression every chapter to be little by little, even if it is hardly anything.

I find it much more upbeat than the early parts of Kimi ni Todoke where a similar situation was portrayed much more realistically, including the resultant psychological issues.

Remember one of the major differences between Japanese and American high schools -- in the US you might share classes with a hundred or more people in the course of a day, so even if you're the weirdest misfit, there's a good chance you can find a kindred spirit -- and that person will likely have other friends in other classes that he can introduce you to at lunch. But in Japan, you're pretty much stuck in one class with the same 30 students all day -- if you're a weirdo, you're probably going to be the only one in class. And if you don't join a club, you have little chance to socialize with anyone else in the school.

Read the latest chapters.

She's very weird, lucky and unlucky. I can't help but laugh of all of those misunderstandings.

Well, last night they had three huge ongoing threads that reached over 700 posts per thread in a span of a few hours, along with a huge buying spree that well... These pictures are a much better explanation of how things went:

Yes we are sure it is 4chan, the author even confirmed it on her twitter account when asked. She new about how huge it is on that site since last year when several anons explained how popular it was on the board.

It's also sold out on Amazon.jp

GOTDARN Kuroki looks so darn cute X03! I'll feel much better when she actually gets some attention thrown her way(and not in the way it did in ch 11 =0<).

If they look at 4chan, that implies they speak English? Hey, that's not funny...

The author has never been on 4chan. All the communication is all been done through her Twitter account.

Look! It has it's own TV Tropes page.

And look what i found in the Germans Love David Hasselhoff entry.

*The manga has rapidly gained a fanbase outside of Japan via /a/ — mainly out of empathy.
**It has a fanbase on /v/ as well, despite their irrational hatred of anything that can be somehow traced back to Japan. The cover of the first volume even acknowledges the foreign fanbase.
