[BadHaremSchollar]

Oh i tought translation was dead...

I find this manga nostalgic cause Towa is part of an arctype you really dont see anymore cause we now have better characters.

Kinda like Nagisa in the mid 2000s

daamn what a bitch she legit knocked Towa to the ground and didn't even take the 2 seconds to apologize being in a hurry doesn't cut it you can actually get in legal trouble for knocking someone over and injuring them if they fall the wrong way you can even hit your head and die

The last couple chapters have started to make me dislike Shintarou. He's weirdly clingy and controlling, which he tries to pass off as concern for the ostensibly helpless Towa... But it feels like he's projecting helplessness onto her in order to justify his controlling tendencies. For instance, she probably knows a hell of a lot more than he does about safe flying. And from what we've seen, she's certainly intelligent and mature enough to handle herself alone in public (with a bit of initial guidance, sure).

Something about his affection just seems OFF, like it's a form of infantilization, thus condescending and even creepy.

That's one hell of a creepy pessimistic view on things.

Is it really that hard to just see him as a worrywart?

Worrywarts express worry. Control freaks try to control. Shintarou is tending more toward the latter than I find palatable.

I don't think it's intentional on the author's part, though. Instead, it's a reflection of how straight male Japanese manga readers wish to view themselves and what they find attractive in the opposite sex. They like to self-insert as a cautious yet capable and dependable everyman-type MC. And they seem to prefer that the MC's female romantic partners be relatively helpless, dependent, childlike, weak, foolish and/or suggestible. As well as utterly devoted to the MC, of course...

By characterizing Towa this way, the author makes Shintarou's neurotic "worry" about her (i.e. his controllingness) seem justified and even noble. This type of relationship dynamic is very common in shounen and seinen romance series. I don't think there's anything wrong with it, but nor do I particularly enjoy it.

Have we been reading different mangas or something? Because she literally almost got led into a hotel with some old dude in the first few chapters, tries to do other peoples jobs for them, has zero sense of danger and is clearly pretty gullible and far to trusting.

Also, how is that projecting? She isn’t even from their world, so yes, she absolutely is helpless. And even if she wasn’t, that's not what projecting means. If he was projecting, it would mean that he’s helpless, which he most certainly isn’t.

Also, in terms of emotional maturity and intelligence, she is child-like. She doesn’t even understand concepts such as love or sex, which even a 10 yr old would understand and know about, as seen by the other angel that appeared.

At any rate, she is absolutely not intelligent enough and emotionally mature enough to handle herself alone in public, which is exactly why he is offering her guidance.

In what way is he controlling her? She broke into his house and slept there, and was then allowed to live there with him. He encouraged her to get her back to her home when he didn’t know she was an Angel, and pretty much lets her do whatever she wants so long as she doesn’t do anything stupid like flying in public or getting herself into dangerous situations.
He never forced her to do any of the things she’s doing for him.

he did essentially stop her from progressing her cultural exchange for a week unintentionally, but he immediately acknowledged how he was overstepping even if he initially was looking at it from the perspective of Towa having the survival instincts of a 3 year old, and was refraining from teaching her how to use public services.

yelling at her about flying alongside a train is perfectly reasonable. these things pass literal inches from pylons and tunnels that fit like sausage casings at 60+ mph and regardless of how much magic she has her skeleton and blood will not enjoy impacts at those speeds.

can’t wait for the archangel Michael and co. reveal where the mc witnesses Non-cherubs out of his comprehension turning the remaining chapters into a psychological horror series where the mc spends years of his life trying to get over hotwheels with eyes

Cute~

I think his concerns are completely warranted given that the day she met him, she almost got taken to hotel by a 'kind person'. I would trust Shiu to go out alone more than I trust Towa. Treating her like a child? With the way she acts she might as well be one, a grown up looking child, which make it way more dangerous since less people will pay attention if someone tried to do something. While Shiu takes it to the extreme, at least she know the dangers, Towa doesn't. That girl has been shown to be way too kind and far too gullible that if someone less decent met her first, I don't even want to imagine what will happen.

Imagine this based on what we've seen so far, someone ask Towa to help them with something and lure her to a secluded place where there's no one around, normal reaction would be to not be in that situation in the first place since you won't go to suspicious places with strangers but even if you do, alarm bells would definitely be ringing on your mind once you've arrived. What do you think Towa's reaction would be, from what we've seen so far? Would she be suspicious? No, no she won't be the least bit suspicious of their intention.

And just like the other commenter said, while he did forbid her from going out often, once Shiu said that point out loud, he realizes he was being too overprotective and decided to slowly let her learn about society, while he watches over her to make sure she doesn't ended up being tricked by some people. He's not perfect, but he is trying his best and he is actually a good person at heart. An actual controlling person would be furious at her whenever she suddenly goes out anyway, like when she ended up going to the school, or when she goes to his part time job, etc. The guys just a worrywart in my opinion

And guys remember, childhood friend never win!!
Towa isnt the best, but is easy flag
