Mikudashi Ibari wa Mikudashitai! - Vol. 2 Ch. 18

[ninolover69]

I mean honestly it was alright

The only good chapter imo was when she figured out he liked her "pure" version more
The rest was just ok

Not bad, but painfully forgettable

 

[Ash6702]

Well this was just a giant waste of time

 

[herbderb98]

Bye bye 👋🤫🧏

 

[Kortez]

This was painfully mid.

 

[Raiho_06]

I knew this was getting axed, but i wished it had a better ending

 

[Brainulator9]

That's it? That's the last chapter? That was just a bunch cheap panels!

Seriously, though, I'm at least glad that this series could end before it fully decayed from the farce it originally set itself out to be (I found the first few chapters hilarious) to a generic romcom where the original premise is an afterthought. I was not expecting it to end this soon, though, nor with such an unsatisfying ending.

 

[totoylata345]

It was short but still cute and funny

 

[Arin-san]

Author didn't even bother thanking the readers for reading lmao.

This is just garbage. A good idea that went into shit in record pace. You can tell that the author was desperately trying to hang on, looking at how he added characters like the FMC's hot ass sister. This is why you need to be creative as an author so you don't run out of ideas by chapter 20. Not everyone is Aka Akasaka but everyone should at least slightly try to be him.

The least that the author could do was a confession, but no. It's a 3/10 and that's solely because of the art.

 

[orangerain7734]

And there was no improvement at all, not even the modest look helped. MC's probably dumb as her at this point for even still considering her as a love interest.

Yeah, this gets a 3/10 for me.

 

[Rin2k]

glad this uneventful series ended right here, couldn't stomach more chapters of it to be honest.

🪓🪓🪓 In the end, Axe-Kun is Undefeated 🪓🪓🪓

 

[ledung_44]

what is this ending

 

[KiTA]

It wasn't the worst series.

It was clearly taking inspiration from a few other series that started before this one, none of which I can remember the name of. The one where the girl teases a deadpan boy only for him to turn it around on her only moreso. The one where the guy has glasses and is generally stoic. Etc etc. There are like 4 of them, and this didn't break new ground.

(Edit: Anything by the artist Suaru Hajime. Tedama ni Toritai Kurokiya-san. I can't remember the one starting with D who's had glasses, tho.

Edit2: Doujima-kun wa Doujinai)

Give it another volume or two and it could have branched out a bit. A few more classmates. A love triangle of some kind. That sort of thing.

Ah well. What could have been.

 

[Mrfatnomfood]

This couldve had potential to be good but it failed so badly

 

[salamiowl]

huh. i guess big titted bimbos arent enough to carry a manga.

 

[Yaboyhg80]

This is a solid 4/10 might remember later

 

[YamiryuuZero]

It's not completely out of place because of the backstory. Remember that before the field trip even happens, we see the backstory of them in middle school. He already liked her, he just hated that she became such a slut. When she's sleeping and not putting on her slut persona, he can properly appreciate her.

Imo, the backstory is the problem; making him already in love with her and mad that she became a slut is honestly a less interesting story than if they have no history and he's simply a gigachad that ignores all of her slutty advances.

Well, that backstory was also an after thought, to be honest. At the beginning they were just senpai and kouhai, but previous to the trip the author decided to retcon their relationship into that. That was fine at the moment, because he had grown out of love with her and moved on with his life, yet she kept pestering him, so the fun was in watching her eventually come to regret the type of person she had become because that drove away the only person she wanted attention from.

But instead the author decided to use that backstory as a handwave for why he is in love with her and the field trip was just the catalyst for that. It's a retcon to justify rushing the falling in love portion of the story.

 

[ZorexLudwin]

Not even a meh, this deserve a BRUH tier.

Here's the 100 yen question -- was that handwave done before or after he was told it was axed? Or was it a Medaka Box style saving throw to try and keep axe-kun at bay?

I swear, why do manga always treat ghosting as something so normal. It's not the 1850's where communication can take months and the letter lost when the wagon train is assaulted by wild Injuns.

Instant messaging is a thing!

Phones are a thing!

Email is a thing!

Hell even regular Goddamn mail is a still a thing!

There's no reason to not communicate at all! And they act like it wouldn't have any affect on a relationship.
