Otoyomegatari - Ch. 112 - Marriage - Part 1 -

[sarusa]

Is there any way to know how this manga is faring in sales? Often I'm under the impression that something I believe is really popular may not really be so, especially in Japan.

In the week of November 18, 2024, Otoyomegatari vol 15 was the 5th best selling manga at Tsutaya bookstores (one of Japan's largest chains). See here: https://erzat.blog/tsutaya-weekly-manga-sales-ranking-november-18-november-24-2024/ - though it does not give absolute numbers. So the sales certainly weren't in the toilet.

Thank you, this gives me more hope it will soon find another publisher then, fingers crossed!

On another note, I really did not expect to see Shuumatsu no Walküre first, and Blue Period 11th... 🤨

you go get your mans girl!!!!! thank you for the update!!!!! i was just thinking about how unfortunate it is that we haven't seen a new chapter in so long, and lo and behold...! i also like ali a lot, as far as grooms go, i think he's a great match

I appreciate her directness.

Ali sealed his fate when he said he didn't like overly forward women when they first met the twins.

best woman so far.

but then i say it because she have okay looking face, if her face is not-so-good looking it would be a creepy stalker story.

But she wasn't stalking him? she just kept an ear out for his activities (which their neighborhoods also knew). She did not following him. All we see after Ali came back is her doing her business and Ali pops out from some hidden corner. Even now, she just simply call him out and confessed.

Not try to make things serious, just that I feel like everyone is easily labeled as a stalker these days just because they pay a little more attention to someone.

that is why i said if her face is not-so-good looking.

we saw she wasnt stalking because her face is okay/good looking face.
thats what we called privilege of the beauty.

like ppl treat ali better because they thought ali is rich/have skill to be rich.
and like how madina think ali is acting snobbish because he is now rich ( which is not if one just think about it more )

other example
when good-looking people/ppl u like romantically, saying hello = flirting
when normal looking people/ppl u dont have a feeling, saying hello = just normal banter, nothing more
when not-so-good looking people/ppl u dislike saying hello = harassment

back to the topic, when not-so-good looking people confess to a person, what likely will happen? ( worse if ppl got confessed hate not-so-good looking ppl too )

btw i say this because i got experience from both sides and witness few similar case myself

Honestly, I just think you have cacophobia and hate people with ugly faces. Look up the definition of "stalker" in the dictionary, it definitely doesn't mean what you say and no one becomes a stalker or a harasser for just saying hello even if they are ugly or not. This has nothing to do with gender, if Madina was following Ali and forced him to date her without caring about his consent, even if she is the most beautiful woman in the world, she would still be a stalker. Please update the dictionary correctly.

whenever i said its me who hated people with not-so-good looking people though?

it is your decision to choose to believe it or not and i wont force u to believe it of course.

but it is definitely happening all around the world especially in japan where powahara and sekuhara is a thing.

not-so-good looking people definitely have disadvantage compared to good-looking people when they are accused of thing they didnt do and it's a fact you can't deny.

im not even talkin about gender, just appearance in general.

tldr : appearance does matter and if your appearance is below average, u will receive harder treatment for sure.

Yeah sis, you have every right to treat anyone you want badly but that doesn't give you the right to label them with bullshit definitions, you get the point? your way of saying it is synonymous with "ugly people are a new race in my eyes and their normal-everyone-is-allowed-to-do-actions are harassment in my eyes". Wth with saying hello = harassment if you're ugly. I feel sorry for the people you think ugly who just trying to be nice in your life. Okay, have fun lol.

And to be clear, I'm not saying appearance don't matter. What I'm saying is that: appearance can't change the dictionary definition of a word, you know?

again, when i ever stated i hate the not-so-good looking ppl? please show me exactly where i stated so.

from the beginning i said nothing but hard to accept facts, meanwhile you from the beginning said nothing but your wild assumptions.

nuff said lol.

Everyone is so free spirited? Ali I admire you for being the way you are. And always. Having a straight face. I hope everyone finds love as straightforward as this. We all deserve it
