There's one thing I feel like getting off my chest: Hibiki herself, her towering talent, is unrealistic as all get out. I don't mind--I mean, that's the premise, and I'm willing to go with an unrealistic premise if they do good things with it, which they are. But that doesn't happen . . . there are musical prodigies and prodigies of various other kinds, but as far as I know there's no such thing as prodigies who write literary-award-winning novels (admittedly we don't actually know yet whether Hibiki's will win, but it's been made pretty clear it deserves to). Particularly not borderline autistic ones. Literary-award-winning novels require things like subtlety, finesse, erudition, deep knowledge of human character and interactions and society. It doesn't matter how smart they are, fifteen year olds, particularly ones with problems interacting with people, do not have the richness of experience to draw on. So Hibiki isn't just a magnificent exception to the rule, she's basically impossible.
Given her existence, I'm really quite happy and impressed with the way this manga has the world reacting to her, and I find her awkward and often savage personality fascinating. I'm just saying.

Agreed with you. It's jarring how Hibiki can be considered a prodigy while she has almost zero social relationship and short life experience. I mean she's naive sometimes...
I believe that author's writings come from their own life and how the author see the world. I doubt hibiki has a lot of that, unless she's somehow the ultimate observer that she can somehow make other's life and experience to be hers through her enormous reading repertoire.

Well, aside of that i like her upfront personality. She doesn't mince her words. I would like to have a friend like her.

A really engaging story with a very diverse and interesting cast. The moment I started reading the first page I knew I was hooked.

Usually I need to enjoy both the art and the story to give it a high enough rating, but I'l be honest here the give the artwork a slightly above average grade. The story and the characters, but more then that the promises of where they will develop is that put this series above and beyond what it would have been otherwise. Right here and now this is a solid 8/10 based on the story alone, with the potential to get to 9 or 10/10 down the road.

It would be more entertaining if there was more balance. Hibiki doesn't have to be realistic in her skill or experience, but she does need to have greater opposing forces.

Still though, at least her ability to beat everyone down is hilarious, but in overall enjoyment it detracts greatly.

Sometimes, I finish a chapter of this and go "What the f- am I reading?" and think that the author of the manga might as messed up as all the characters in it.

I really thought the translator was getting bored of the manga. Glad that's not the case(yet)

This manga series won an award in 2017, so we might not even be in the best parts yet.

Oh good lord... I read your comment @Deoxyribo9 as I was reading Domestic na Kanojo's chapters... Natsuo mets a 15 year old first year high schooler who's 'sweeping' the awards (just after a huge sign of it at the train station) (chapter 163) . The girl is just about as abrupt as Hibiki is too.

It made me start thinking it was a crossover for a minute, nope.. LOL.
