224 CHAPTERS JUST TO LEARN ITS ALL BS, AND HE COULD FUCKED THEM ALL WHENEVER HE WANTED.
>>288485027Is it ending or something?
>>288485027What goes through an authors mind when they do this like this? Do they think they're being clever and subversive? This is the equivalent of "it was all a dream~"
>>288485191I can easily see it being milked for another 200 chapters.
>>288485259Japanese romance manga writers have the bizarre idea that if you ever progress the plot in any way that means the manga ends.
>>288485027the real treasure was all the cockblocking you did to yourself along the way
>>288485311there's a lot more to romance than shitty romcoms
I can't believe the manga that was bad for 223 chapters was also bad on chapter 224. What the fuck, impossible.
religioncuck BTFO, you get what you deserve from your skydaddy responsibility absolver
>>288485405You've never even read this manga, the first 60 chapters were great.>>288485436>buddhism>skydaddyRetard.
I'm just mad that best girl has like, zero chance.
>>288485405Nah anon, it actually started somewhat decent, but it precisely this lack of plot development that ultimately brought it down HARD>>288485191We can only hope so, but no, it will probably continue for another year
>>288485027I'm so fucking glad I dropped this. Do me a solid /a/, let me know when it ends so that I can offer my condolences to those who stuck it out.
feels good to have read a romcom today that ended after 38 chapters. still always unsure if authors do it because they get axed or they reach the point where the couple get together and then they decide that's enough
Any news on anime second season?
>>288485259how does it measure up to Ah My Goddess's magic castration twist?
>>288485922That one comes out of nowhere. This one is atleast plausible
>>288485287I could milk Tomo's tomos for another 200 chapters
>>288485027maybe his grandad was just fucking with him this whole time?
>>288486015I'm torn, because on one hand she's hot as fuck, but on another hand, maaaaaaan. Talk about unnecessary love interest, that only exists to pad shit out even more.
>>288486544I seem to recall people liking her more when she was a supporting character/wingman and not a love interest.
>>288486647Yup, she was fun as support to Mona. Making her a love interest felt really random.
>>288486647She was more fun before she got nerfed hard. And she served as a counterpart to Minami, which was a better dynamic than yet another member of Medaka's harem.
>>288485027Japanese Buddhism does not mandate celibacy for its priests. The vast majority of priests are married and have families.Traditionally, Buddhist monks were celibate. However, during the Meiji Restoration in 1872, the Japanese government issued a decree legally allowing Buddhist monks and priests to marry and eat meat.Today, clerical marriage is the standard across nearly all Japanese Buddhist denominations, including Soto and Rinzai Zen, Jodo Shinshu, and Shingon
>>288485191Well, they are 3rd years for starters, Asahi and Tomo noticed Medaka got closer to Mona and they got pretty much friendzoned, so it's not farfetched to expect it to end soon. Or soonish. I don't see it having post-graduation stuff, only some timeskip epilogue. S2 taking so long could be also a sign it's timed to air when the manga is close to ending.
>>288486757I only read a few chapters, but wasn't part of his story that his family was some weird small sect?
>>288486544She suffers from the same issue as Asahi. Lack of real screentime compared to bitchass Mona. And when they have something once in a while, it has a retarded end. Eh, Nandatte?, running away, mixed signals, cowardice, spilling spaghetti etc etc etc. Only Mona can get away with all of these, oh boy, and she gets away with it.
>>288487062Yeah, it's called Buddhism
>>288485027>THEManon, please. Medaka doesn't think about "them", he thinks about "her" and you know it.
>>288486737how was she nerfed?
>>288487603Easy to see. She was absolute in control during discussions with Medaka. Even laughed off a pantyshot incident. Then she fell for him and just like usual she started blushing randomly, sweating near him, can't look him in the eye, literally run away from him because she didn't have to courage to ask him this and that...
>>288485027>>288486525to be fair, if it wasn't for the stoic attitude he had from following those precepts, Mona never would've taken an interest in him, which probably would've meant most of the other girls wouldn't have either.Without that misunderstanding, Asahi might be the only girl who became interested in him
>>288485027HAHAHAHAHA OH WOW IT'S THE WHOLE "BELL DANDY MADE YOU IMPOTENT" THING AGAIN.
>>288485027.....okay. i remember getting into an argument with anons when i said that japanese shinto priests aren't celibate and that's how family shrines and temples get passed along generations so the plotline of him being forced celibate is bullshit but they just wouldn't have itand so it turns out a lot more people simply didn't know this.
>>288486544>>288486647Wasn't she saying something about side characters being forced into a relationship with other side characters or am I remembering a different manga.
>>288488539No one knows less about Japan, then fuckin weebs.
>>288487603nta but Tomo 'was' a whore. Written initially to be the slutty and experienced friend of Mona, who has no such experience. Author almost immediately course corrects Tomo after her first few appearances and she turns into another harem member
>>288488607>Wasn't she saying somethingwho, Tomo? Or the author or someone?
Asahi should have have more stories, because without her we get less of best girl, Minami.
>>288488738she was pretty much the reason I read this for a long time, but something's caused my interest in her to deteriorate
>>288488607>or am I remembering a different manga.This?
>>288489035oh fuck I was remembering a different manga, thanks.
>>288488620>>288489035I was remembering this one.
>>288489035Took me a minute to realize the one on the right was a girl
>>288488612i try not to talk about j-culture or the language anymore on /a/. being *right* doesn't benefit me when people don't listen or care even if this information is instantly accessible on the internet
>>288489161reminds of the japanese MTG set where the designers dug deep into shintoism and the deity aspects of concepts and the community absolutely hated it because to them Japan set just meant ninjas, samurais and anime
>>288489190the shinto rat set. bold aesthetic move that was wasted on people who just wanted the meta shit
When was the last time we saw the 1st year girl who was ripping off Mona's queen bee schitck?Or her little brother, for that matter?
>>288489710Some 40-50 chapters ago, during sport festival I think.
>>288485027I mean, you're reading this for the boobs. Like, they aren't going to print him just fucking her tits, so the fact that it went on this long got you more tits. There's pretty much nothing else to this one.
>>288489035This guy is done so dirty in that manga, he deserves his own leftovers eventually...
>>288485922I entered the thread specifically to see if someone mentioned Ah My Goddess.
>>288489978atleast that one is a comedy manga setup. doesn't hurt like the one page with the guy has one missing sunglass lens being asked if the other guy is ok or that other one with the otaku laughing looking at the sky saying "yea, 2d is the best"
>>288490071>>288485922Any other romcoms where the entire contrived reason things can't happen get instantly handwaved away as if it never mattered?
>>288486544Tomo's tomos should milk me for another 200 chapters
>>288490071the nice thing is that someone else brought it up too
>Medaka has a dead mom tooWhy does WSM love dead parents so much? I get doing it in battle shonen, but romcoms?
>>288490117To Love Ru
>>288485027Not surprising
>>288491385It's the easiest way to explain why a parent doesn't show up in a manga.I find it weirder when a student main character is living on their own in an apartment so that they can attend a school far away from home.
