I find it kinda insulting to the character that translators would choose to keep a neutral pronoun because other characters mistook her for a guy before. It's basically saying that she can't be referred to as a girl because of her "boyish" appearance. There's nothing in the character itself that...

Not the best time to go out with a fever, Nishikata...

I disagree, this is definitely a romance manga. The romance is portrayed clumsily and inconclusively, but is at the very core of the manga. People looking for a standard SoL would find themselves submerged by romance moments (whether they go anywhere is a whole other point). It might be a bad...

Wow this girl is sensitive

As an Italian, I feel like it's my life duty to clarify that there's no cheese in pizza and/or pasta (with very rare exceptions)

Wait, what was up with the tree? It's been so long, I don't remember anymore

I'm seriously disturbed by the fact that nobody even thinks of bringing the serial rapists/murderers to the police

Axed manga is axed. I think the problem here was that the supporting cast wasn't fleshed out enough for the story to be about our main couple interacting and helping the others grow. Also, they couldn't really get through much development themselves, having reached a balanced status quo from...

This is basically a shounen reverse harem, with the cool looking guy, the delinquent, the childhood friend, the overprotective sibling and the best friend. Never seen one before.

What a great manga. Even with all the real life troubles she had to face towards the end of its run, Arakawa was able to wrap it up nicely and convey its message in a full and satisfying way. These characters were all alive, and it's sad to say goodbye to them, but at the same time seeing them...

So he ended up buying four tickets to invite one girl, well done

A manga where the sister tries to be her brother's wingman and doesn't get in the way with incestuous implications? What is going on here?

I'm used to the awkwardness of manga, but this guy wanting to ask for her name "one day" and her being impressed by it reaches new levels of lame.

Came for fluffy romance, stayed to find out if the pedo cat guy was gonna get arrested
