GraPara! - Ch. 134 - By Strip, You Mean…?

[Des0]

How am I supposed to sympathize with Sakura when, ever since Chapter 130, almost every character she talks to immediately sympathizes with her and accepts everything she says without seriously questioning it? It's almost like she is talking to ChatGPT.

There should have been at least one character who pointed out the inconsistencies in Sakura's actions a long time ago. Instead, everyone keeps comforting and enabling her, and now there are only two chapters left. At this point, Sakura's storyline almost feels disconnected from the rest of the series.

Chapter 134 is a example. Every major character except Sakura is given a meaningful challenge. Shinobu has to prove that he can write a compelling screenplay without taking the easy route of relying on a sex scene. Fumi has challenge is to confront her own feelings and move beyond Sakura after forcing herself to find the courage to accept a proposal for Shinobu.

Meanwhile, what challenge does Sakura actually have? Everything Sakura is struggling with right now is the direct result of her own choices. Her current challenges exist because of the decisions she made herself.

Compared to the other main characters, that feels surprisingly underwhelming.

The only reason I can see for anyone to sympathize with her is because she's the main character. Outside of that, there are none. She's not loyal, doesn't appear to be caring, isnt trusting, is stupid, gets turned on like a hentai character, bad mouths people, has 0 communication, just lets anyone grope her without thinking about how her boyfriend might feel.

All her thinking about Shinobu just appears to be from a selfish angle. Me me me me me me.

Well, Team Sakura only comes up with excuses like 'because she's the FMC,' 'because she's the cover girl,' 'she was just being too stupid,' 'Shinobu failed to realize her insecurity,' 'she couldn't resist sexual stimulation and that playboy took advantage of it'...Truly peak comedy LOL.

From the very beginning of the story, the character Sakura left absolutely no impression on me other than constantly needing help and rescued from being forced into sex with other characters, with everything catering to her selfishness. Then in the end, she went ahead and had an affair, and after that, whenever she met anyone, she kept spreading rumors that Shinobu was the one having an affair without even bothering to check the facts. Meanwhile, Shinobu didn't tell anyone that Sakura was the actual cheater, and her new boyfriend even went to see Shinobu to declare 'victory.' Sakura is inferior in every aspect, a truly terrible character.

I admit I didn't read Karami Zakari in detail, but do we actually see Iida pursuing anyone? It feels more that she is just there and will accept almost anyone who wants to do her. A nympho actually going after and seducing guys would be healthier than Iida.

She fucks whoever comes along but has feeling for the mc she just doesn't tell him.

In the manga she fucked with some people until dating the MC and after that she broke up with to please his ntr fetish.In the doujinshi is really a nympomanic girl who NTR'ed the MC and fucked with everybody since the beggining.

FYI, I've seen a one-shot (3 chapters became only 1 chapter) version of Karami Zakari doujin (not manga) that Iida's not a nympho but ordinary girl. In that version, Airi Katsura (sensei) cut it short by showing that Iida had not sex with anyone except the bold head boy and the MC. She's not a nympho in that version. The MC confessed to her in the end and they're going out. Airi Katsura (sense) just cut out all the sex scenes with other people (except the temple scene) and altered just the final few panels to create a happy ending. Forget to tell you that the MC is also normal (not cuckold fetish).

I just want to point out that Airi Katsura (sensei) has previously revised and redrawn Karami Zakari doujin version to cater to readers who disliked the mentally ill MC and FMC. Why is she being so stubborn not revising Grapara in chapter 129 that will solve every problems ?
