Definitely surprised about the interior at page 5, having a themed kitchen and living quarters with a whole garden in it does sound a bit excessive, even for a ship of that size.

It definitely is a reference to it - Given you can just be fine in Minecraft with half a heart and look like there is nothing wrong, but anything even taking a brush at you will take you out. Kosuke looks way too healthy and acts like it even though he hangs by a thread with his actual health...

Quite the entrance there, kid. But you saved her, you did good.

I do also enjoy the environment details on the last pages. For some reason it throws me back to the times of the Record of Lodoss War.

It's always the (seemingly) innocent, shy and passive ones who really go all out when you let them. And I am all for it.

Coincidentally, right when there is some development going with the duo! Because why else would the barely-mentioned childhood friend from years ago get a free 'sudden tranfer-student introduction' pass right into the same class and school they are in at this very moment, right? ... tropes or...

The language is a bit crude at times. Even a teacher should know not to cuss out like this, especially in front of the students. Not sure its a translation thing or not :pepehmm:

Makes me wonder if the author did lean into our history of mirros regarding that, since there also was a monopoly of crystal mirrors from 1450 to 1665 on the island of Murano and were very hush hush on keeping their monopoly. In any case, a nice touch.

Not going to lie: Sometimes I do wish for a chapter summary when it gets a bit more dense than usual, just to be sure I am on the right track. Because once you lose the 'thread' of this all, you are pretty done for and you can go back reading the whole thing again from start.

Soccer mangas tend to go like that when its about tournaments and events. But even those have 'lulls' in form of character development, slice of life situations and school to balance it out - Sometimes separated from the main theme, which is welcome change. Can't be about soccer all the time...

I think people were still coming down from the last arc, and perhaps expected something more of a light-hearted filler for a while until we jump back into the more serious things. Hell, I could do with less lewd and actual storytelling or simple humor. Just feels like the sexual parts kept...

That's one hell of a impression for the first-timer there. Hope he didn't forget to snap a few photos, let alone breathe after that presentation.

I did expect a little more out of it, like peeling some of the layers back in a conversation or through ruderus' self reflection talk. But can work as well at times.

I am aware - Though it is something unusual that regular folks comment about it when its the norm. I MAY read too much into it, but we have to see how the next few chapters are.

A interesting school, to say at least - Seems the teachers developed a 'head down, don't cause a scene' kind of atmosphere and let the school kids do their own thing while they run down the topic on their classes, whenever the kids are willing to learn or not. And likely most go with the latter...
