Imasara desu ga, Osananajimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimaimashita - Ch. 33 - Not Over There

[Zafkiel_Aleph]

She did nothing wrong guys

 

[darthkotya]

The more shit I see Yami pull, the more I want her to suffer once we get back to the present.
Yuu rejecting her right then and there, telling her to piss off, and loudly declaring his love for Hikari.

 

[Valle_reading_manga]

Wtf, here is was thinking they'd be getting along now ... but I didn't expect this to happen.

 

[samazam]

This is somehow actually worse than Yami just straight up gutting Hikari with a box cutter. There are things you just cant run back no matter how good of a redemption arc the character eventually goes through. She is quite literally irredeemable now.

 

[Burner5]

OK this is the last straw for me, Hikari needs to drop both of them when we finally get back to the present, idc if they became friends, thats a fucked up thing to do. Watch how it wasn't ayami who did this, I really want to see how the author swerves this to show that it wasn't actually yami who set up a fake dating page for hikari.

What did Yuu do? The worst thing he did (if you want to take it in the worst way) was ditch her during the culture festival to kiss her best friend. Even then, she hasn't given him any DIRECT clarification on her emotions so he isn't cheating on her. To the best of our knowledge, Yuu has no idea about how fucked Yami "is" or what she "did" to Hikari (this is assuming that it was Yami who did that and not a jealous classmate (knowing trashy rom-dramas it probably was and this next arc is about Yami "saving" her)).

 

[Another57]

I really wished Yami would win. But nah, this just pretty much destroyed her character and infact this whole manga for me. I started reading this manga hoping for wholesome romcom, which it seemed to be for the quite a good number of chapters. Even after it changed to this bs I still kept reading it because Yami's backstory with Yuu was really heart wrenching. But enough is enough, the author ruined this shit for me

 

[ProRiceCooker]

WTF YAMI, She better save Hikari from this

 

[VINT64]

Too much text, feels like reading LN

 

[meltbro]

The more I look at these comments, the more obvious it is that pretty much everybody who's reading this hasn't read White Album 2. Which is a shame. There's a lot of similar beats Maruto extracts from his best work to utilize here, including the one from this chapter.

Some of them are not exactly well suited for a modern audience or for characters we've not seen grow up/had enough time for them to grow up or for highschoolers in particular. But they are part of a proven success and so it makes me wonder which of these characters he's drawing connections or parallels between. It seemed to me up until now like he was treating Hikari like Setsuna and Yami like Kazusa but it's not quite so perfect.

 

[Alcron]

Yami... what a woman you are

 

[Freestyle]

I like how this is now rated at a 6 when this website was dumb enough to keep Rental Girlfriend at a 7 for years, is the MC not masochistic enough for people's liking?

 

[Kastrionx]

Guys you cannot be this lost.. This is only their second encounter. This is before they hung out in the pool, this is before everything even happened. The kiss happens way in the future.

 

[vicvdh]

Yeah, even I, a Yami simp, can't defend her this time

---

Edit: I realized I wrote can instead of can't lmao

Yeah... The Yami boat I'm in is starting to sink.

People keep trying to reference white album 2.

This isn't white album 2 and this is shit. Just because a writer made one ok thing doesn't make the rest of their works good.

 

[waldo220]

Was "peddle stool" supposed to be "pedestal"?

 

[Thawhidol]

Peddle stool...

 

[story645]

I'm not trying to attack Hikari's personality or anything, guys. I'm just commenting on where I think the author will take her character from what we've already seen, based on what I know of his style.

I get that; I'm objecting to the focus on emotion when the anxiety spiral is I think what the author would push on if that's the endgame with Hikari. In large part cause that's how they already played it with Aya - her insecurity spiral kept getting bigger until she ghosts, and that's when she has the big emotional breakdown.

 

[awtystic]

WTF YAMI, She better save Hikari from this

Considering this is a flashback we might see Yami or Yuu saving her

 

[thedinowarrior]

Yami is still by far the best girl. Nothing will ever change that. She deserves to win the Yuu bowl. Author saw how interesting and the attention she was getting, even more than Hikari and has been trying to change it. Hikari is mid asf. Yami clears.
