But you were okay with their relationship being 100 (okay, maybe 60) from the start while skipping 1 to 59, and then wasting dozens of chapters on nothingburger hijinks without anything meaningful happening and without any decent interactions taking place, right? So why are you not applying...

It amuses me to no end how strongly people react to any hint of drama while readily eating up the same poor writing when it was just romcom. Apparently, any mangaka gets a free pass as long as they’re writing mindless romcom fluff, but the moment they introduce some sort of drama, they...

@EijiRin it should be Ta-kun instead of Yuu-kun.

That might be fair, but this kind of slow start 200 chapters into the manga can be quite annoying for many people. Like, there should be a reasonable way to develop a character throughout the whole manga instead of just doing nothing with them for 200 chapters and then deciding that it's finally...

I wish she was as well-written as you make her out to be. She was just doing random "funny" childish things for the most part of the manga. Her "manipulativeness" is akin to a child roping his/her friends into shenanigans, it's not out of some malicious intent, just pure thoughtlessness. The...

What follows is just her being unhappy with how things turned out, not "specifically" rejecting him. So the only thing that could convince you is her outright spelling out "I didn't mean it when I said he was taking me for an idiot"? Because that's exactly what I meant by verbosity. She didn't...

She literally thinks "I said something I didn't mean again", not "I didn't mean to reject him" or "I didn't mean to sound that harsh". And I'm not emphasizing that "again" only because it would be a pain to go through the entire conversation about chapters 40-41 once more. Edit: this is again a...

Sure, but that whole "wait for my answer" can be a chance to build up said romance better. Because if she just accepted now, it would definitely feel lackluster (which you seem to agree with). No matter how cliche the plot point is, it serves its purpose of showing a development and giving an...

Why bother reading romance at all? The end result is known from the start in 95% cases.

He says that he likes her in the following chapter. I think he understands that quite well. Well, the point was that he knows how it went. Why he's not denying her words is a different topic. She literally said two short sentences and then thinks "I said something I didn't mean again". It...

For many people it really is, and I was addressing them. Like I said, I am fine with discussing the quality or execution of the drama, which I'm not a big fan of, and I agree with your point about a number of characters introduced in a short time. But if you read threads for recent chapters...

They confirm it's not his intention to string her along and that the which is roughly is not hundred percent true. https://forums.mangadex.org/threads/imasara-desuga-osananajimi-o-suki-ni-natteshimaimashita-ch-41-everything-falling-apart.2308230/post-27254348 This is explicitly saying those...

Well, as more or less confirmed by following chapters, it is untrue. Not really, and we know from Yuu's POV chapters how it went. Basically you shouldn't take the translation too literally, because what this says is far from what manga TL gives us. We just happened to have evidence that she...

That's why I am addressing manga readers specifically. Pace is not the same thing as a release schedule. This arc will be a half of one volume at most, which is essentially nothing. We could talk about the quality of a drama or some narrative decisions, but saying that it's not building...

Remember, manga readers, when there is an ongoing drama arc longer than 2 chapters, you should: 1. "When will this arc be over? This is irritating, I want to go back to fluff!" 2. "Why don't they just talk?!?!?!" 3. "I don't know what's happening anymore" 4. "Time to drop it, I'm out."

But Yuu knows that's not true, and he still doesn't retaliate, he actually agrees. If this was real life, you could write it off as him misinterpreting her words, but here I think it's clearly intended to be a shared sentiment between both of them. I disagree with some of your points here...

If the goal was to show her resentment, she'd call him scum after he says the first line, and then Yuu would respond with "but I'm still unable to forget about you". And this is accentuated by a long pause between the two Yuu's lines in the novel. Like you said, the context is the whole thing...

1. A character is created to glaze a couple. Since that's his/her only purpose, a character often doesn't even have any personality aside from doing that. 2. It's meta in a very on-the-nose way. 3. Consciously or subconsciously, the author is trying to convince the audience that the couple is...

Which doesn't mean he needs her permission. Their dialogue gets very heated, she demands he talks about it, everything about it screams jealousy. If it was, she wouldn't be saying stuff like "if you don't like it, you can run away". I thought it was clear she was trying to be bold there. She...

Author's self-insert shipping main characters and endlessly praising them has to be one of the worst tropes in romance. If you want to depict them as cute - just show it, don't write it down.
