So, I dunno if you guys know this but he's been her crush for 10 years. She's even decided to be a police officer to chase after and get closer to him.

Wouldn't want anyone to forget so just incase.

No, but seriously, as quickly as I loved the art style and premise is as quick as I'm ready to toss this in "Dropped" with these lil reminder chapters and no actual happenings. Even if they were to amount to little to no progress they'd be better than these repeats of stuff we've learned and had repeated several times now
Same. I'm getting bored, and a fucking "recap" chapter when it's only 15 chapters in is atrocious. 😅

Isn't Police Chief at 30 pretty fast?
Tbh the unrealistic part here is becoming a police chief at only 30 years old.
The actual term (based on checking the raw) translates to "chief inspector" with Google translate, and the definition of the Japanese usage of the term from the wiki is as such:
In the Japanese National Police Agency, a chief inspector (警部 [ja]) serves as the squad commander in a police station and leader of a riot company. Prior to a 2013 restructuring that changed the English translation slightly, this rank was that of inspector.
Edit: The youngest UK inspector (the rank this apparently used to be called in Japan) was 26, so he's early but not impossible based on that. Anyway, it's not like he's the chief of police, he's the second highest rank in his small local police station.
Edit2: checked it again because was unsure, the "chief inspector" was wrong, it's actually Police Sergeant (巡査部長, Junsa-buchō), he's in charge of the local police box.

“At this point, just push him down and ravage him. Then he’ll never be able to become anyone else’s bride, and will come back to you when he wants to feel good again!” - Average hentai protagonist.

But seriously, this seems to just be a twitter manga that they’re hoping to get noticed probably. I wouldn’t expect a story before that.

Yeah i was goint to comment this. Like damn maybe japanese police have different ranks or its a translation thing but to be a chief at 30 you would need to be the luckiest shmuck ever or have some really lofty connections.

No way an old chief would give up their position without being forced to even if the next chief is young and talented.

wait... was she being likened to a dog?
I think so. At least that's how it feels like the chapter was portraying it with all the dog references. She also kinda follows him around and she seems to have a bit of a dog-like personality what with her being very straightforward and honest about her feelings.
