"Stop looking at my booobs", uses clothes that enfasizes and shows the boobs. Really Rona is wayy more perverted than the elves, wich only have a preference for large boobs, this framing is pathetic and give a horrendous characterization to all females elves and to Rona and Gariel.

Edit: Changed elfs to elves because someone yelled at me for it T_T

@ mahtan

The plural of elf is elves. It is not, nor has it ever been, elfs.

Commentary on the chapter:
This might be overanalyzing, but I can see some of the author's nationalism and ideology shining through. The elves are being compared to Kamikaze pilots in some panels. So by extension, the oncoming monsters must represent Americans. Meanwhile, perhaps the "please say you did well" segment seems more a message towards the Japanese readers, imploring them to say that towards the deceased Japanese soldiers of World War 2 facing seemingly impossible odds as the war drew to a close (in which case, Rona represents said Japanese reader when facing the two kneeling elves).

This whole Rona boobs ordeal is very dumb, even though it's funny. It's not like Rona is a sheltered lady that doesn't know her own beauty, she knows very well how beautiful she is and even used that before attracting the shitty members of the party at the beginning.

Those elf dudes are honest to the bone. Rona can't understand it despite having quite a strong slutty side, as was demonstrated by her attempt to seduce Renya sexually and how she kept hoping Renya and Shion would develop a physical relationship. I guess her values don't apply to herself, only to others. What do you call that? Oh, right, a hypocrite.

Whoa, my dood @Kaarme there is a misunderstanding on your side. It's a good thing to wear clothes that you are looking good in, emphasysing your strong sides, whether you are man or woman.

Then there is the way the opposite sex percieves it. Compliments can go good way "you look good in that" where both of you know what you are thinking about and it still has good vibes (about you), and there is the bad approach "your boobs are amazing" which means that nothing else is looked at the person (not even the ability to pick a good cloth composition that let you enjoy the view, for example) and gives off bad vibes (about you).

Dood, grills dont like if a male is _only_ looking at their outer appearance, it makes HIM shallow. And discarding shallow people with harsh words is a basic of basics in every life situation, if the male is agitated by that, it means he was a rookie and lost the battle. It may seem hypocrisy from the shamed male's point of view, though, you are right... Maybe the male should grow some brains and learn how to talk "civilised and cultured" so females wont be disgusted with him. By this I mean learn and gain experience. :)

This is meant for all the idiots should die who say women should not wear clothes they look good in only because they were too retarded to communicate better with said females (both in verbal and nonverbal communication). I mean, for christ's sake, just wear fraking sunglasses if you are such a moron and shut the frak up in front of women.

However, the end part was only a joke about men (ab)using their "last moment" to discard all of their pride (remember, elves dont like speaking in human language), and a woman grinding his teeth at "even in their last moment, they act like men". :) It's a quite funny ending of a running gag in this chapter.

@Maala I said nothing about her clothes, though? If there's something wrong about them, it's the fact they don't offer much protection in a fight. I talked about how she tried to invade his bed pretty much immediately after their first meeting. And then she was hoping he would invade Shion's bed.

The elf dudes are open idiots, she's a hidden idiot. If I had to choose, I'd be the latter as well, but the former are more honest, like I said.
