Because the male audience she is referring to is the JAPANESE male audience, one where gyarus aren't exactly the most popular kind of character (Why do you think gyarus almost disappeared entirely in the 2010s?), and one with the personality of Marin, 5 years ago when publication began, was certainly a difficult sell.

It's easy to see why she was worried, and was even expecting the axe because of it.

Situations like the one you mentioned (The "What are you looking at!?"), are popular tropes for a reason.
Mangakas keep adding them to their works because they're indeed popular with the general Japanese male audience, as annoying and tiring as we find them.

ok now that we're on the same page and you provided an answer let me correct my initial question


what the hell are japanese males smoking?!

2D plane is a weird one, especially concerning art. You can write some stuff in a paper, it can either just a nonsense scribble, or an award winning teen novel. Same with drawing, you can just doodle some stuff or paint a masterpiece. But for this manga (and some other manga), I feel like 2D plane is somewhat constricting the creative "juice" of the author. I kept wondering, what if this was in 3D or something. Would it still have the same feel? It doesn't necessarily mean going into anime, but it feels like 2D is not enough for this.

Thank you for the exhibition photos, that was a treat! ^^

Thanks for the chapter!
Deym, Marin is going to steal lots of hearts this time.
Once she goes full Haniel, she might even make a fan out of that manga's author.

And looks like Marin fell in love with Gojou all over again 🥰

Thanks for the backup, but I don't think the guy is going to get it after the fourth time.

Wracking my little brain to remember where the bunny girl outfit was used. Because that'd normally be seared into my memory.

"She completely stole my heart"

I kinda expected Marin to feel jealous about that, but then again she IS cosplaying as Haniel. Ergo, she's in a position to try and completely steal Wakana's heart with successful cosplay.

The cosplay is finally done. It's time!

Due to the color coding I noticed that between 31-32 seems to be missing a picture of the costume? The one featuring the fighting game character with a tanned skin that Marin never actually cosplayed outside?

On Marin:

she does absolutely nothing to be liked by people of the opposite gender

Maybe this is true in-universe since despite her gorgeous looks, she's often at odds with the boys of her friend circle and she's extremely hostile to pickup artists, but in reality she's extremely popular among fans and male fans at that.

Those dakimakura designs are pretty wholesome considering like 90% of what's out there for these things are all lewd designs. It's actually a real struggle to find non-H designs for these long hugging pillows.

editing team requires panty shots

I see how it is.

Pretty neat exhibit.

 

[KidCoyote]

I'm wondering what the special meaning the author talked about in the key visual could be.

 

[ARealCoolGuy]

"Yet another black costume..."
Haha, seems like a subtle dig at the author.

 

[dingo12345]

Ooh, this is a long one. Pause.

I enjoyed this chapter.

 

[Simpleton]

Thank you for your hard work, and for the exhibition images.

nice outfits, i think some long wigs might feel too stuffy for me but i'd love for someone to do my hair and makeup and wear a cool design
