I Can’t Date My Student… Can I? - Vol. 1 Ch. 6.1

[Mr.Oblivion]

MC didn't try to force himself on a girl or anything like that. He's just straight forward with his feelings and trying to win her...

There is a big difference.....

"You know, that I'm 18 if we to get married we could do ANYTHING senpai".

 

[aveney41]

This whole chapter was a big yikes on all fronts.

First, the girl goes a bit nuts.

Then the MC rejects her in the worst way possible - that kind of reaction can cause long-term damage to someone. I just can't not feel bad for her there, regardless of what she did prior.

And after that, he is confused about why his teenage body, which probably gets boners from looking at a curvy bottle or hearing the word boobs, got one from looking at a naked girl... And he acts like it's the end of the world... Just from that reaction, we know that mentally he's barely a teenager, let alone an adult ready to get into a relationship with someone who is in their mid-30s.

The premise worked when it was kinda joky, in a short-format manga kind of way. But if we are talking realism, someone who's 35 would have virtually nothing to talk about with someone who's 18. Unless they both like similar media, like games or TV shows, but that's just a filler. What else though? Will they reminisce in bed about the time she was his teacher? Please. After this chapter I'm 100% with Sensei - this guy needs to move on. Some might pull it off, but he is at least 10 years too early from dating in 30s.

She lost my sympathy after the second no.

"Hey I like you."

"Sorry I can't"

"But you can do anything with me."

"Sorry I just like you as a friend"

"BREAST FLASH"

"Fucking stop!"


He doesn't sternly reject her until he says no twice. The third time, he had to be forceful as she was losing her goddamn mind. Though sensei has said no to him, he's been nothing but respectful to her and she obviously doesnt feel unsafe around him.

 

[Mr.Oblivion]

What she said to him isn't what he said to Sensei. What he's remembering is his statement of single-track devotion to Sensei, that's now being seemingly contradicted by his present erection.

I'm talking about the lines "You should only do this kind of thing... With someone who's truly important to you!" "That's you ---" both are used by senpai and Shou and Shou and Fujieda. Senpai saying the first sentence to Shou and Shou saying it to Fujieda.

Yo what 😭😭😭

 

[Chizan]

Huh, for a second I feared the manga would go the Gal Clea path, hope not, but the tonal shift of this chapter is enough to cause tectonic rumble. At least I'm not seeing fragmented chapter numbers, yet....

 

[TwisterJR]

I think you're overreacting a bit mate

 

[xXPenisXx]

You cannot show me a chapter of a young man crying over his ~unfaithful boner~ and expect me to take it seriously bro.

 

[Ladmxt]

poor dude. the sensei is disinterested and the classmate is a maniac. years of effort all for naught. truly a josei moment. hope he finds someone better.

 

[potatoawards]

Why the author did this?
What's the point of a sexual harass chapter with a character we barely know of?
It's so weird, so out of place, so confusing, feels mad artificial, first time saying this but i hope the author gets backlash from JP readers on X so he just finishes this arc next chap and act like it was never a thing

 

[favine]

I'm baffled by how fucking stupid that was.

I get the want to add drama, but do we really need it? Can't we just have this young Chad trying to woe over the FMC, and that's it.

Just every Chapter is her falling more and more for him.

My brother in Christ she sexual harrassed him, who give a fuck about the damage to her? Flip the role, would you still say a girl is damaging the mental health of a boy who just flash his dick in front of her to try to force her to love him when she just turn him down a moment ago?

But if we are talking realism, someone who's 35 would have virtually nothing to talk about with someone who's 18.

He's not trying to "talk", he's trying to get married with her and probably have children. The fact that they're in different stations in life-- and that he's barely an adult-- certainly would pose difficulty, but it remains to be seen how that's overcome.

One thing's for certain is that in age gap romances like this, it's typical for the man to build himself up in a coming-of-age sort of way as a means to prove himself as worthy of a relationship with the woman he seeks.

"You know, that I'm 18 if we to get married we could do ANYTHING senpai".

That is categorically different than rapidly and violently undressing in front of someone in a fit of desperation.

this reeks female author

Jacks Law of Modern Romcoms:

“Between the chapters 8-13 a secondary love rival will be introduced. This may be used to expedite or hinder the original relationships progress.”

Any context behind how that law was coined

 

[Eighty-six]

this reeks female author

Chapter 3 reeks of male mangaka, or at least a woman very in touch with male desire.

...the fact that the mangaka's given name is "Shinichirou" all but confirms this is penned by a man, though.

 

[Serathe7]

Next stop: girl telling the school principal that MC forced her to strip, or somesuch?

I want to be proven wrong here.

Yeah, I was afraid later that he'd get accused of attacking her, whether she does the accusation or someone else gets the wrong idea. Seriously hope it doesn't go that way.

 

[Goldni]

only 40more chapters for something to maybe happen

It's so stupid isn't it? I was just bitching in a thread for Gal Yome no Himitsu for doing the same stupid thing. Can't think of any way to actually create an interesting story with a romance between two people, so they just lazily fall back on adding a love rival that we all know is going nowhere just for drama. I swear it's the most annoying thing ever, and I've dropped a fair few manga for it because they handled it so badly.

Just really wish they had more imagination.

 

[hahano]

my man can't even have the resolution bruh

 

[popo53414]

first of all, get your own hentai doujinshi, little harlot. Second of all, is he not going to get into a scandal because of all these? Is nobody noticing?
