Dap me upUHHHH! So dark... seriously. Even Bully Maguire would be jealous of her level of edginess.
Thanks for the chapter!
Author said first 20 chapters were Hikari's (light) next will be Ayami's (dark)I guess she wanted to mess with him, then actually fell for him, broke up with him because "I'm not good for a good guy like you", and now he "found" her in the present.
She's a proper NTR gal, overwritten vulnerable guy's feelings with her body and shit.
I'm not really interested in the backstory, I want it to go back to the present. Unfortunately, with the manga being consistently bi-weekly now, I expect at least 2 more chapters before they conclude the flashback.
Well tough luck for her i guess since she missed the train and dude just moved on. Same situation happened in Losing Heroines story as well. Two people fall for each other but in different times. Girl in that loses as well (hence the name )If I remember correctly, in one of Hikari monologue/flashback (should be the one in the bathtub) was shown her protecting him from bullies. At that time, she considered him like a "little brother" so Yuu probably started developing feelings for the always cool Hikari right there.
I'm also assuming the same here. Author just wanted to use her for a stir in the pot. Now that her evil side is shown and her entire plan of ruining someone's life to quench her thirst of revenge, seems idiotic. We will have the chapters reveal her plan unfold one by one until we get to the part where we see them kissing. Here's the thing, she will definitely fall for him and regret it. But my real issue stems from whether the male lead(didn't bother remembering his name) will leave Hikari and go for yami instead which totally I despise.
That doesn't mean they will all be a flashback. Flashback is just a background for actual events, so I expect at least half, likely more, to be in the present.Author said first 20 chapters were Hikari's (light) next will be Ayami's (dark)
its down to 7.07 - edit (x2) now. we will see a 6 rating before the next chapter drop.A 7.39 rating (at time of me typing this) since the last chapter & I can already see this drop further since we're in the "dark side" of the story. I doubt he'll get corrupted enough to cross the line but still wonder why he dated her. Hope it won't take too long to reach that point. Thanks for the translations.
Yup, it's just bad storytelling.So, not only did we have a completely unnecessary tonal shift and focus on a side character in what seemed to be a sweet and somewhat realistic childhood friend romance, but now that side character is being comically shitty to the guy and "using him" as a "rebound" because of her own misfortunes? This could work in a separate manga with a clear tone that matches this, but it seems absurdly stupid here.
