Otaku ni Yasashii Gal wa Inai!? - Vol. 7 Ch. 50 - Otaku & Gyaru & Surprise

[BanzaiYuri]

Thanks for the translation! Warmed my heart seeing Seo celebrate his bday with his gals! I wish I had gyarus, but not all Feb babies were born equally o7

Those words were chosen more carefully than even she realizes yet

Not Amane subconsciously telling on herself again.

 

[Erricane]

That was so sweet... How are we suppose to choose just one of them when they're both this sweet to him?!

 

[supsun]

Had to go back and check but you can see a few of the picture being taken in the background of the past chapters that video was so cute

 

[Wizardrone]

how nice

 

[zephyrnepres]

It was moving, it was in character, and it was great.
...
Kinda getting tired of guys crying in manga, though.
Eh, what the hell, I'm here for the long run.

weakest take of all time. guys should cry harder. no single manly tears, they should have tearducts resembling faucets like one piece men

 

[izukaml1]

I love the way ijichi cried with otaku-kun 😆

 

[totoylata345]

I fw thismanga heavily so much, this is the only love triangle series that im hoping for both the heroines to WIN

 

[Mordenheim]

Sure, man. Good luck with all that normalization thing.
I got tired of words in the last 10 years, and won't really participate or support it, but you do you.
Not really a fan of the whole putting words on my mouth thing, though, I don't think I was aggressive about it.
It's just my belief that as the one to support others, you can't show how you crumble, as it could make people think of you as not reliable. This and things like "The ick list" show me crying like this in front of others is not a good idea.
But at the same time, I never tried to push this opinion on anyone, nor did I antagonize anyone, I simply expressed my opinion.
... Guess that was a mistake.

This.
The whole "Guys don't cry! Be a fucking man!" mentality is not about crying per se. It's about the fact that as a Man, a pillar and protector of your family, you are supposed to be strong-willed, dependable and not crumble at the first sight of problem(s). You fight, you die, but you die fucking standing.

Would appreciate if you shared point of view a bit more because I genuinely don't see how one is mutually exclusive from the other.

Being strong willed very means you're very determined to do something.
If you're dependable people can trust and/or rely on you.
Not crumbling at the first sight of problems, well that's self-explanatory and, please correct me if I'm wrong but... That's not much different than being strong willed, no?

So... Let's say you're at the funeral for a loved one. Does crying about their passing make you less dependable and/or less strong willed anymore?
Would crying tears of joy at the birth of your child make you less dependable and/or less longer strong willed?
Does crying tears of joy after discovering you're actually more valued and loved by people (perhaps by even more people than you realized) make you less dependable and/or less strong willed?
(I could go on but I think you get the point)

If so, then how exactly? Try as I might but I just don't understand or see it.

What a ridiculous, self-aggrandizing excuse for for conflating masculinity with being emotionally stunted. Crying is not the same as crumbling. Emotional vulnerability is not the same as being weak. Grow the hell up.

Sure thing, friend. Have fun "fighting and dying—standing!" like a man in between posting about what a real-life badass you are on the MangaDex forums. I'm sure all those years you spent mastering the blade will come in handy someday soon!
