I don't think having remedial classes with an idol is going to help his grades.
a good way to know if you understand a topic is if you are able to easily explain it to someone who doesnt, and since they are in the same class the what he is showing her should reinforce the idea in his head

Another way is to paraphrase it in your own words, probably at an easier level. If you can't explain it properly to someone at a less complicated level, you usually don't really understand it that well.
Okay that was basically what you said I guess.

A JK VIP being surprisingly dumb? Immediate callback to Yuki to Sumi. Still pains me that it got cancelled.

This is a wish fulfilment manga, based on very old, and slightly rote tropes.
This is not a bad thing per se. Even a thoroughly rehashed idea can be enjoyable if done skillfully. Sometimes you just get a craving for junk food, and It's not a bad thing to indulge in it.

Overall I'd say it's good enough for what it is.

Goddamnit! You just had to dredge up those painful memories again, didn't you?!

It's not just Yuki to Sumi, all three of that mangaka's series where cancelled, right after the other, to make it even worse, the author has completely disappeared, gone off grid.

To this day, I maintain there were office politics involved, all three of his series were funny and smart. And I refuse to believe that such a quality product did not have any support from the audience, most likely it was killed at an editor's desk.

I know right, all three of those had an interesting premise too. They all would have been gold if they go on for longer

Really disappointed we're doing this contrived tropey love triangle arc right now.

Can't say it's one of the best. The MC is incredible in the few things he knows how to do, but even then he's undermined by the women around him being better than him at that. Meanwhile they all have a life outside of studying. One of them even called him an M-type vegetarian, and basically treated him as an object to admire her.

Even the FMC, if not for her condition + work, would probably surpass him soon enough.
She sometimes gives the vibe of not really thinking of him in a romantic way, as if she wants him to be obsessed with her for the pleasure of it and has no real intention of answering those feelings.

I guess I'm invested so I'll keep reading it, but if it didn't have 44 chapters by the time I read, I would most likely drop it.
Good luck to anyone getting into it.

Good guy MC trying his hardest to be closer to her. But seem like fmc values her career way more. Make sense tho, just feel bad for the guy, tf is "Wait for me for some vague day when we might be together?” , big red flag. And the story will be stalling for many chapters with zero progress.

Esse mangá é extremamente genérico e cheio de idealizações merdas. O prota fica toda hora falando da beleza do ídol, e fora que ele é um bostolinha - bosta + boiolinha. Tipo, foda-se a aparência dela, quero saber do desenvolvimento - que por sinal é muito fraco e chato. Esse mangá dá sono, eu li ele enquanto escutava música, mas eu não prestava atenção no mangá, e sim na música, de tão desinteressante. A nota é muito alta, nem equivale a um porcento da realidade. Eu não ligo nem um pouco pra ídolo, nem pro protagonista "porta", e muito menos pra amiga inútil, que só serve pra metros mais clichês saturados. Esse mangá é um suco de limão já espremido, não tem quase nada de bom, só a arte é legal, mas só isso. É tão ruim quanto a analogia medíocre que acabei de fazer, seu cuzão.


E segredo é o maior foda-se de todos, tipo: quem liga se a idol é ruim nos estudos? Só imbecil e chato. Mas não sei, o Japão deve ter essas merdas de frescura.

I honestly want the mc to just take a step back from her. It's not that I hate the FMC, but we are just waiting for someone's heart to be broken or a waste of like 100 chapters. I think it's completely fair she prioritises her career. honestly, who wouldn't when it's their dream. But leading the MC on by wanting to make him your number one fan by making him fall deeply in love with you is about the worst idea ever. i love both the characters. but realistically, it will never work out unless she quits being an idol. or the mc waits for her to be "satisfied" after a certain period of time where she retires which is kinda just sad.
