There is only one thing that's more annoying than completely illogical characters/events in my book, and those are illogical computers. Because computers, unlike people, always do what you tell them to do.
And that's aside from the fact that one of the main points of working in the cloud, is...
Especially since, at this time, MC is way tamer than he was before. In the first run, he stole all the girls that his best friend liked. That's up close and personal.
For now, it seems like he will be stealing girls from people he barely knows or cares about. And so do the readers.
Isn't it...
I feel like at this point in this arc, this is probably the only way of dealing with it.
The damage is already done.
What she's doing now makes no difference to Yamada-Kase relationship.
Kase now implies that she is leaving regardless, so that's fine.
Not immediately spilling the beans -...
I like the idea, but I really can't stomach the Japanese idol approach... she's like 20 and acts like a 14-year-old at a Justin Bieber concert. He's just a normal college student who does youtube. Her acting like she's seen a god every time is just obnoxious.
Well, it's kinda hard to balance when you have, if memory serves, 34 wives, all of whom want to be, at the very least, as important as every other one. The First Hero really went overboard in this regard. And it all made a biiiig mess.
You are also not the main perpetrator, if someone robs your open-wide apartment, you just can't act all surprised when that happens, because you have some culpability.
All 3 heroines are pretty bad in their own rights.
Nanase: neglectful, fears showing affection, fear of commitment...
I think everyone gets it, cheating is bad, buuuuuut...
I don't think there is any way to counter that Nanase brought it upon herself. She was repeatedly neglectful and didn't notice even a hint of what Yuni was going through internally. I get that she is not a mind reader, but if she spent more...
Chii got a little bit of development, but I still don't really enjoy her interacting with the other 2 couples(-to-be). She needs more of her own chapters to establish herself within this point of the story. She still feels like she's 100 chapters behind - the kind of weird feeling of incongruence.
Even if MC is like 20% manipulative scum, I can't stop myself from liking him.
Because all of his manipulative behavior is to serve the, more or less, pure cause. And he never actually crosses any boundaries. He's unlike any other romance protagonist I can think of.
I'm impressed that...
I know it's needed for pacing, but it always annoys me when the OP character is playing with enemies and lets them pull out their trump cards and shit for no reason. He doesn't need anything from them. He's in a locked space, with no witnesses, just go atomic on their asses with the first strike...
Roommates' level of compatibility, some might even say.
Still, the quiet and chill chapters are fun and all, but it feels like it's been a while since there has been any progress in their relationship. Their approach might have matured a bit with the uni-related arc, but it still feels like...
I'm mostly disappointed in MC. He was doing well for most of the chapter and just fell apart in the last few pages.
And FMC acts like a child with a young adult's body. What's the point of having fake friends that you pay for with sex? Just do compensated dating in that case - the same depth...
I think there is some progress. She was eating a cute bento last chapter, which means she now accepts it, unlike what happened in chapter 5.
They're walking home together now vs just interacting at school - this may also be considered progress.
I feel like the confession still did not completely go through, but it's still in the air. Still, why someone with 100 years of life experience acts like a teenager is always beyond me in those kinds of settings. Let's blame hormones I guess.
