Osoraku Kanojo wa Ore no Aniki o Neratteru - Ch. 8

[reinokid]

Echoing the "glad this didn't go arbitrary harem route" statements.

Hasegawa might become an interesting character now, and offer a much needed friendly female perspective to MC to balance out his male friends.

 

[theredendermen]

i will kill myself if it happens.

I'm all for giving people second chances but she was forgived way too easily.

Author, you can't have the MC being suspicious about all of the women approaching him for 7 chapters because he's afraid of being used again, and when it actually happens, he's just like" I'm too nice i'm gonna help her haha".

No, you just ruined the whole concept of your character...

The way he acted with the heroine until now make no senses at all...

MC complains but will still help people, this is clear since the beginning.
He will not trust girls, but this is different with not helping someone in need, in his mind it will be "ok, I know what is her intentions. I will solve this but please don't talk to me after this"

bro js took a break to start aura farming like mad on page 10

 

[Tinker_OwO]

She could be a really cool female friend character. We don't really see them a lot because they always end up getting feelings

So...
Please don't make this a harem 🙏
Please don't make this a harem 🙏

I actually approve of #2. She understood of being wrong and apologised. She might really end up being MC's sister-in-law.

She might have understood that she was wrong with how she treated the MC, but she's still pretty creepy with regards to his brother.

I understand some disagree with this opinion, but I'm also of the same mind

On a discussion of "wasted potential" I'd also add that immediately "redeeming" (not exactly, but you get it) Hasegawa ends the opportunity for so many gags and jokes like that of the previous chapter, which is a bummer for me.

The chapter itself was very wholesome, but it was much too fast. I imagine the author might be trying different things to try and save its popularity?

 

[iririuuu]

his brother is playing on easy mode (if you ignore the possibility of yanderes) but it seens like mc will have a girlfriend first, how ironic

Best Girl

I agree, he's not supposed to be an asshole.

But it's not being an asshole to not help someone who was using you.

Because that's the thing: she was still using him.
He was hurt by the reveal, just that he's so used to it that it's not surprising for him anymore.
So he got all the reasons in the world to hold a grudge.
And even if he was not holding a grudge: why would he want to asociate himself with someone who was using him?


I mean, his whole character until now was "Girls try to get close to me to get close to my brother, not because they actual cares about me, so I won't trust any girl." It's because of that that he was fleeing the heroine at the start.
And the one time we see a girl actually using him... He's just like "No, it's no big deal, i'm used to it".

I'm sorry, but I don't think it's coherent.




I was not talking about his weird tsundere act and desire to trust the heroine. I was talking about the fact that he is extremly wary of her (well,he was way more suspicious in the begining, now he's warming up to her) and he had multiple moments where he was trying to ignore her because of the whole "She will use me too".

That's why i'm saying his reaction this chapter makes no sense:
A girl is trying to get close to him and seems to be interested in him, and only him? "No, it's a lie, I can't believe her".
Another girl reveal that she was trying to get close to him to use him? "Haha it's okay I knew it, now let me help you. Even better: let's be friend!"

I'm sorry but no: she got forgiven way too easily.

Anyone who's complaining about his apathy and how he supposedly acts counter to the initial point of the story, just read this.

You should probably read between the lines more instead of taking what he says at face value. The reason that people were able to use him to approach his brother in the first place was because of his personality. He's too trusting of people, too much of a nice guy, he let's people in really easily. (and also not trusting women isn't the same thing as holding grudges against them, he doesn't actually hold grudges against people cause he's too nice for that)

The thing is, he knows this. He realizes that people take advantage of his friendliness so he now attempts to put up walls to protect himself.

The issue is he's still a really nice person, he can't change his personality; so if someone's got a problem and they ask for help, HE CAN'T bring himself to refuse because that's just how he is.

Those walls he puts up act counter to his very being, so they have flaws, holes. They aren't very hard to break down if you don't strike where he expects you to. She fessed up and apologized, which is something that his "walls" aren't equipped to defend against. Same with houjou, her actions are nothing like the girls that use him, so she's confusing.

Tldr, all that matters is that he's just way too nice to hold a grudge or stay mad. Especially because he's gone through it so many times already. You might think that's dumb, because, yeah, it kind of is. He should be mad; but it doesn't act against his character. It fits it perfectly.

 

[dbzclamp]

i will kill myself if it happens.

Will the inevitable love rival who appears in the last two arcs count?

 

[Sakuyadorf]

Wow went from a real bitch to being a very less of a bitch

 

[MadScientist666]

Going all buddy buddy now after trying to use him to get his brother

Ah look, it's already a meme, ahahaha. Great!

 

[MadScientist666]

That was a fast change from using him to get closer to his brother over realising just how shitty it is to being wingwoman number 1, ahaha.

 

[duagreste]

I think the change in the new character is very abrupt, but apparently Mc hasn't fully 'bought' this friendship yet. Well, at least it didn't turn into a fucking harem (to hell with harem).
And to finish, a dose of romance between the protagonists, too good!!

 

[Saybah]

Rival character/Love triangle

Sister-in-law

This ^

 

[JagdPanther]

Way, WAY too little Izumi.

 

[RiffRaffROTFL]

Sorry, still don't like her. If nothing else, her reason for crushing on the brother is sooooo shallow. Add that to her willingness to use the MC to get closer and you've popped enough red flags for me.

 

[Andasen]

obv she didn't because he didn't pick up her eraser. if it was that, she would've definitely fell in love with him. thats anime logic 101

MC's brother did just pick up a leaf off her head and she fell in love, it still does happens

 

[Graywing]

Thankfully it didn't become a triangle. Thanks for the chapter!!!
