The Dangers in My Heart - Ch. 171 - I'm Pretending to Be an Adult

[VividlyV]

N word artists? heNtai artists, or what are you getting at lmao?

They are talking about NTR artists.

Because honestly, they kinda are right. You have Anna and Mama here interacting with one of the celebs from a previous chapter who literally got outted for having a black book with young actresses they "had fun" with, not to mention Mama not messaging Papa yet suddenly vanishing.

Ohhhhhhh hell.

Sorry that my mind didn't instantly register NTR from reading ''N word artists''. But yea of course, this setting is pretty compatible with scenarios like that

No worries, they definitely put it in a weird way by saying that.

Hm, can't say I ever really liked the decision of the author to focus more on Yamada's acting career and the troubles it causes for her and Ichikawa's relationship. I still enjoy the manga because of it's general strengths (solid relationship progress, fun MC's etc.) but chapters like this one, where it's reinforced how Yamada's job separates these two, don't sit quite right with me.

That like just wanting the manga to have zero tension.

Nuclear artists.

I want to go back to the days when I was like you and didn't know what I was referring to, bless your kind soul.

I really wish Yamada herself feels that it's uncomfortable to be part of projects and scenes which demand her to be physical, and chooses not to engage with them by her own volition.

Many people like to claim that Kyo has gotten over it, and while that may be true to some extent, it's perfectly reasonable and valid for him to be wary of what her work entails

They can't let minors act in scenes like this in Japan can they there has to be child protection laws right

 

[ysil69]

Mama out there getting her back bent from some actor.

 

[Kani1337]

Yeah there's no way that they won't use body doubles or something else for any of the sus scenes.

I mean, it’s sort of the logical place the series would go.

Like, one of the reasons so many romance manga end when the main couple gets together is that it’s hard to just write nothing but lovey-dovey stuff for 20 volumes straight. Some authors can do it, but others want to add a little conflict. Which is understandable, because in the real world these situations can exist.

Too many mangas fall into the pitfall of becoming melodramatic slop for the sake of "tension", I can do without the random rival, silly miscommunication or any other cheap dramatic twist in this comfy slice of life romance, thank you.

You arent reading a comfy slice of life romance though. you reading something that has always been about confronting actual problems within its character and their circumstances. If you want a lazy easy to digest romance then i have no idea how you got this far into the series lol.

 

[retolee]

Right after they talk about Anna being faithful to the source material too.

 

[flxsemi]

I've started to realize that this story has risen above its intended romcom genre, and has been for quite a long time. We're no longer merely wishing that the two main characters end up together. We're now exploring what it means to exist in an adult world, to overcome its challenges, and to see if their bonds are strong enough to withstand it all.

The usual weakness of the romance genre is that once the pair gets together, that's already the endpoint, and reader interest dwindles gradually. That's pretty much why romcoms tend to go on for way too long before making a confession. I myself am guilty of this, having dropped a story to no fault of its own except giving the payoff way too early. This story, just like how Nagatoro infused martial arts and art appreciation with the drama, has defeated that weakness by evolving, and became strong as a result. Author is secretly GOATed.

Well, I think kissing and sus scenes are part of acting, I mean I know movies where partners of actors (albeit popular) came to the set to make sure that their partners were not too intimate with their heroines/heroes in sus scenes, BBBBBBUT!!!!

BUT, Anna is freaking 14, so yea, I don't think due to any reason other actors should even touch a 14 year old, heck, touch a under 18 year old like that, so that's that.

Neal McDonough got blacklisted for quite some time for not wanting to kiss other women in scenes.

Brother, exactly. WTF is this?

 

[leonfire99]

My guess is that the mom got pregnant and is in the restroom with nausea.

Yes, the manga is about tackling issues about growing up, overcoming social anxiety and romance, that's what I signed up for, but now, after all this time, it shifted towards this career actress romance drama, where Yamada and Ichikawa have to hide their relationship and are both uncomfortable about the fact that Yamada, at some point, has to be touched by other men for the sake of staying a drama actress. It feels removed from everyday relatable problems, this manga was going for, and a bit more forced for the sake of drama.

 

[Lex79]

Well I think there won't such scenes because Yamada is too young, but still, this will bring attention to the fact that at some point she'll be asked to do the and refusing would be detrimental to her career. On the other hand, I too wouldn't be too comfortable with the idea that my out of my league girlfriend is going to kiss and have sex scenes with handsome actors.
I remember a manga dealing with the same thing, albeit with adult protagonists, and it was quite heavy.
