Easiest job in the world: Fire marshal in Japan. Inspect public buildings to ensure people can't be trapped in a burning room? Naw, I'm going to go nap.
What's refreshing to me is that the author didn't do the whole "OMG, I'm bleeding, what's going on!!?!?!?" thing that so many of these stories do, even with high school students. Japan has sex ed. Middle schoolers know about periods.
That's a strange desire for someone reading genderbender...
I'm not sure why everyone's bagging on the MC. The guy's weak, sure. So are most of you reading this. But the MC stands up for his principles and pursues his goals even while he's surrounded by people stronger than him. What takes more courage, stepping into a fight you think you're going to...
Regarding the ending:
Anyway, I really enjoyed this manga, including the middle part that some people consider boring. Remember that she's essentially been alone for 60 years - she needed that interaction with people to grow as a character.
I love how the king is hanging around a battlefield, everyone sees cavalry bearing down in his direction, and they all apparently just stand around saying, "oh hey, maybe someone should do something about that..."
Protect your damn king, people. He should have been surrounded by guards. This...
It's funny how the dragon keeps breaking all those columns with no consequences. You'd expect the ceiling to come down on him - otherwise, why put the columns there to begin with?
Girlfriend, Girlfriend (otherwise known as Konojo mo Konojo) is a different manga than 100 Girlfriends. And yeah, the title should really be
but that would spoil the later chapters.
I've got a few:
Dokunie Cooking is by the same author as Sora no Otishimo (recommended above). Actually, I like most of that author's works.
Fujimura-kun Mates is a tsukkomi-style comedy/romance that's hilarious.
Konojo mo Konojo is a hilarious romcom about a guy who falls in love with two...
I don't know why people expect character development or a strong plotline in a 12 chapter goofy manga.
This manga is silliness and fun. It's not meant to be taken seriously.
As an aside, for anyone worried about the whole loli thing, this isn't loli manga. There's no loli fanservice and...
I normally don't criticize people's grammar, but that comma makes it look like you despise:

triangles in manga

which gave me a chuckle. I know it was unintentional, but thanks for the laugh.
Down with triangles!
I giggled way too much as the "Who the heck are you?" drawing. It's almost as good as the "You're disgusting, Kouhei" from chapter 2.
I love how this artist draws eyes to express emotion.
It's amazing how many people are throwing "pedo" around at a series aimed at teenage Japanese boys. Especially considering the only sex scene in the manga happens between two people in adult bodies.
If you find this manga offensive, just give up. Japanese manga is just not for you. Perhaps...
I haven't read that one, so I can't compare them, but I somehow doubt they'd be very similar. This manga's about a guy that falls in love with two girls and can't give either of them up. The MC never lies and always says what he's thinking, which adds to the humor but also means they try to...
This is all right, but it gets a bit repetitive. With Maga-Tsuki the story progressed faster and the goddesses made things a bit more random and interesting.
So far I think I prefer Maga-Tsuki to this one. My only complaint with Maga-Tsuki was
Edit: I wrote the above after reading the...
And due to different cultural norms, the Japanese in general don't view titillation as necessarily bad or reserved for adults only. Teenagers get horny and are interested in sex. Japan accepts that, while the west often pretends puberty happens all at once on your 18th birthday.
I'm not sure...
Just throwing out a single data point here, but as a guy in his 40s, I still think young ladies are pretty. Quite nice to look at. Were I single and the opportunity presented itself, I'd happily have a roll in the hay with one.
But that's it. Anything beyond that is out of the question. I...
Best possible ending: she slips up, accidentally has sex with him before she turns 20, grows a penis, and he turns out to like it. Everyone's happy.
(I haven't seen the ending, just in case this really is how the series ends.)
Different cultural norms. Japan generally doesn't have the religious hangups about sex and nudity that the west has. They have cultural hangups about displaying affection in public, but that's a different matter.
They also recognize that teenagers going through puberty have some degree of...
