Well, at least they skipped the exam cliffhanger. Is this a new arc or is it speeding to the end?

This is... THE ENDING.

Perhaps the 'Final Chapter' on page two might be a clue?...

It's always the slop that gets dozens of volumes, but anything with even a inkling of unique premise just gets dropped or baited for LN sales. I liked that the MC was so forward, and that we could have gotten him involving himself in the upper echelon of society, learning from her dad, the weird secrets from ch1 regarding the mom and her dad, etc, but nah, back to some ecchi garbage they go.

Honestly this would have been better if he failed the exam. I remember another manga that had a mc parents disowned because the father of his mom didn't approve of his father because his father was an author. I have always wanted a story like that but Japanese government is stopping that story. because they are afraid that people would actually take relationships as a partnership that can start with nothing instead of an obligation they can't say no to. FYI they are trying to pass extra taxes on unmarried people to try and force relationships. instead of doing the obvious and giving people more time to themselves 🤔

 

[FallenFlame]

I'm glad the romance was handled well, but I wish we had answers to the mysteries surrounding the MC's mother and her relationship to the female lead's (or possibly the maid's) family.

 

[Darkshade13]

that was it? So they answered nothing about all the other stuff that they teased and seemingly laid out in the earlier chapters? I guess it really was just an ad for the WN/LN or whatever it's adapting. Because the abruptness kinda rendered the whole story a big fat load of nothing.

 

[Omergosh]

Honestly, after the disaster that was these last few chapters, I'm just glad it's over.

I remember this series started off wholesome and with fun characters (the man couple meeting, the ramune antics, the festival...), but the author couldn't help themselves from ruining what they had. Every scene with any parent seemed like a concentrated effort to punish us for caring about the story and its characters.

There are many ways to introduce conflict in romcoms, but whatever this author was cooking, they clearly missed the mark.

We're probably not supposed to hate everyone's parents and think they're genuinely stupid, clueless caricatures, but that's exactly the opinion I have of them all. Not even just the rich girl's parents - even the MC's mom seemed to just say whatever crazy nonsense the author needed to for her to help "progress" the plot or challenge the MC. It's like this story was written by Stockholm Syndrome's strongest soldier.

We're probably supposed to take the story's conflicts seriously, but everything after the festival was so laughable I was just speeding through the pages for the sake of getting this manga off my "Reading" list.

It's such a shame, because the early chapters and interaction with the MC's friend clearly showed that this author + artist can give us compelling character interactions. Heck, even the school introduced at the end actually sounded like an interesting environment to see them navigate! We could have kept having a good thing going if we focused on friendships and relationships, instead of this weird rich-alien-ultimatum nonsense and bizarre hostility towards anything resembling a healthy upbringing.

The writing just... crumbled any time the author felt the need to introduce tension or stakes, because man was it never convincing. I think I only ever rolled my eyes any time we left slice-of-life territory.


(Sincerely, thank you to KDT Scans for coming back to deliver us the rest of these chapters a year later. I no longer have to wonder how much further downhill this story went - I got to experience it all at once and be done with it. I'm actually more impressed y'all had the discipline to keep working on it until the end.)

Feels the end is near, like it took 11 chapters for them to be shipped

Disappointing. Sad.

 

[ExileTheBlank]

Welp, there's the axe.

This IS the end, there are no more chapters..

 

[derpdederp]

thats it???? ok

 

[yun1que]

Wow. That's it? Disappointing. But oh well. Thx team!

 

[undeed]

Okay, I went and read the free chapters of the novel because I thought the manga had been axed and had to speedrun the story and skip some plot points.
And after reading the last 3 chapters of volume 1 of the novel, it turns out not to be the case.

This manga adapts the entire volume 1 of the novel.
The only thing that wasn't adapted was the epilogue, which simply explains that the story of "the man" Junna's father told in chapter 4 was him.

As for his relationship with Yuki's mother, I still don't know, because my free coins have run out.
The manga adaptation is almost 1-on-1, with only very minor modifications.

There's a second volume of the novel.
Maybe there'll be an explanation there?
