How do they even get pregnant if getting turned on turns them back

Jizz logic

Two chapters left

This ending is going to be rushed as all hell, isn’t it

The worst part is that you can see all the ideas there, but the author doesn’t really do anything with them. They have exactly two jokes: Hikaru struggling with getting a boner and pervert dog. And that’s all they do.

I know this is going to sound crazy, but you can be impregnated even if you aren’t turned on

That is called rape

Yeah it's pretty bad. Just refuses to really introspect at all.

And yikes I didn't even consider that but it's a dreadful thought.

really terrible sex I guess?

 

[Sandmann1st]

How are they gonna conclude this in 2 chapters….i imagine it won’t be very good

wonder why this failed but similar gender bending ninja like ayakashi triangle was a success. i mean besides the star power of yabuki's To Love Ru. i feel like this one had potential.

It's really quite simple: it refuses to legitimately engage with its own premise. Like in general Hikaru should be learning femininity and showing character development. Instead he sucks it out like a sponge. It's just bad writing.

Ayakashi Triangle, in comparison, has its protagonist cone to terms with femininity. She engages with her girlhood, evolves her relationship with her partner, has her partner fight and participate in the plot, and ultimately stays a girl in the end.

To give specific examples for this one: Hikaru doesn't learn or engage outside one off gags, it's all physical "comedy", the main girl is treated like a prize for masculinity, the mothers are not respected as women, the one character with ANY sort of introspection (Kaede) is reduced to sex, the dog exists and also serves to reduce kunochis as men, etc.

It's a laundry list of bad writing. The only decent writing was Kaede and we're all convinced it happened accidentally.

 

[Lyricanna]

Or alternatively, commit to the subversion and have Hikaru actively rejecting the femininity being forced upon him beyond the simple comedy. Seriously, this series had quite a few moments of accidentally hitting this mark originally. Hikaru staring at the lingrine store before storming off cause he flat out didn't have the energy to go inside worked. It felt real, exactly in the way a guy who has been forced to be a girl by society would feel.

In this case, the growth would be Hikaru learning about feminitiy, understandng it, and individually rejecting it in order to grow his masculinity in a positive way. There's a faint glimmer of this beneath all the garbage, but it is without a doubt purely accidental.

 

[BayuAH]

So, she actually a woman, as Sasuki somehow has interested to her? Wow!

Two more chapters to go! But the story seems rushed, doesn't it?

Thank you for the update!
