It will never stop blowing my mind that a manga about a dude collecting 100 girlfriends passes the Bechdel test so frequently and effortlessly. These are the kind of chapters and interactions that make me sad that many people dismiss this series by its cover, calling it coomerbait and slop. They have no idea how well realized a lot of these girls are, to the point that they could easily become the protagonist of another manga.
Whenever people turn their nose up at the series,
I can't help but think back to Ahko being like "....am I making the right face?",
Shizuka hugging Nano before confronting her mother,
the intensity of the relay race and everyone's faith in each other,
Yaku writing a touching personal note in defense of Naddy,
the baseball team avenging the crying Shizuka, etc
And I wonder if they'll ever realize how much heart they've missed out on.
