And here we go for another week where this series is criticized by everyone on the network. The famous "everyone loves to hate" thing.

(And I loved Natsumi in a bikini)

I'd be more worried about this story getting axed before we get a resolution to the Lemon cheating lie plot device.

Angry comments means there is still interest in a story, but in these late chaps, we are barely getting even that.

People worried about "three guys" from the beginning... I just laugh about it.

But seriously now, yes I'm also pissed at how the script is handled. But like, I follow it more for the beautiful aspect of the art and seeing how far each situation goes that is apparently done in a very random way than waiting for Lemon to say something about why she lied about cheating on Sunao.

Especially because the person who should also make an effort to understand feelings was Sunao. Lemon also needs it, but I feel that the author's focus is on Sunao (it's no surprise even when changing bodies, he always ends up reporting more about Sunao's days in Lemon's body than Lemon in Sunao's body.).

The series is an attempt to make a kind of "soujo for men". If there were "fights", it would basically become a replica of Ranma 1/2.

If the series ends/gets cut, no problem. It'll even be cool because it forces the author to find a quick solution and then we'll see if it was worth swearing at the same thing all the time. (And I've liked short series. I followed "Service Wars", which was kind of funny).

Being a highly visible series with awful writing and annoying characters will do that, yeah.
I don't deny that. I only posted the first post just as a provocation, because every week we here just fight for free with the script.

(And I'm fighting using Google Translator, which ends up being hilarious...)

I like that Raika is just a chill friend now and she didn't go down the more common insane obsessed fangirl route.

Tho this story barely progressing is defs an issue I'm now just looking at it as like a decent side dish while I get the goofy angst n such I'm accustomed to elsewhere.

most of the comments seem to be on the official translate website and not on mangadex now

This pacing is okay if it was a slice of life from the very beginning... But it started off with quite a bang and now it just feels kinda flat because the premise that the series led with hasn't really been in the focus in the last few weeks. More body swap lore please!
