I am fine with the author wanting to change things, but I am still feeling lost on the direction and these last episodes it feels like the author was padding as if to take time.
I am fine if is Agawa or the Baseball lady, but it feels like the author is spinning in its wheel, like someone writing in big characters to make the essay look longer.
I'm sorry but I have to ask,
what exactly you're lost about? Or rather, I ask this to
everyone who is confused, not just you.
I ask that because you're not the only one who says they're lost, confused, don't know what in happening and so on, which in my opinion doesn't makes sense, let me explain why.
Originally the manga was supposed just a retelling of the pre-serialization story so I understand how some people had certain expectations, but even so nothing was promised it would be 1:1 adaptation, so changes were inevitable.
Then we got the retcon which really changed things a lot, I understand initial confusion since that is extremely rare to happen, but we're 9 chapters into it now,
what is the confusion about now?
Like, the manga is tagged as seinen, drama and comedy, I assume the tags reflect what is used in Japan, this was never meant to be just another generic harem romcom, which takes me to a important point, we can read a shounen, romance and so on, and make certain assumptions of how the story will go, but even then nobody
really knows where it'll go, sometimes the mangaka surprise us by going into a unexpected direction.
With that into mind, the story was obviously more or less following the original, to the point of even repeating the ugly bastart teacher blackmail rape plot, but mangaka decided to throw all that away, now we're seemingly literally going into a completely new direction.
So again,
what is the confusion about? The whole point is exactly the fact that now we
don't know where it's going, forget the retconned chapters, forget the pre-serialization, read the story completely for itself without having the old stuff in mind and it all makes perfect sense.
Really, how is that any different from reading a completely original manga where we don't know where it'll go in the long run? Because that's the point of the retcon in my opinion, mangaka wants to tell a new story, so putting the pre-serialization chapters or pre-retcon chapters in a pedestal as if they're the only wayn it can be doesn't make sense.
