Tokimori-san ga Muboubi desu!! - Vol. 2 Ch. 13 - Tokimori-san is a danger...?

[Chronigan]

I don't even think they're going out at this point right??? Also MC needs to grow a spine why is he just letting his brother talk and walk all over him?

I mean... he's the mc in a rom com. Spines are in short supply.

 

[TheManager]

.... He's doing a great job but... It's misunderstanding in the end...

 

[brndndss]

if the next chapter doesnt start with him immediately shaking free from his brother, im gonna riot

 

[InsertBagelRelatedPunHere]

I hate the manga trope where adults somehow end up unable to tell a child to not be a problem. How is this kid allowed to not only be rude as fuck toward her but also literally drag the MC out of the house when he's talking to her? Ground that boy and make him apologize smh

 

[chusetto]

Annoying little brother... they're LIVING TOGHETER but they're not a couple... yet

 

[Sky_Ravager]

Man, this kid is a pain in the ass fucking hell


Thanks for the translation!

 

[youkari]

Everybody relax. Chapter 15 just got released for general viewing and Sugawa is great.

Tokimori's ex is pretty abusive. He's pretty much the "women belong in the kitchen" kind of sexist.

 

[legendary_swordsman]

Hey lets NOT find out what's going on and run away! 😑

Intrude in someone's house
Invite yourself to stay
Accuse person who helping mc
Forcing mc to leave.

No sympathy for this brother reminds me of type that keep talking and accusing and never let the other person talk

 

[legendary_swordsman]

Little brother needs to MIND HIS OWN F***ING BUSINESS.

Yeah this bro is a pain I'd toss him out

 

[KingOfMidgard]

You might wanna reread what was written.

1. Introduce random antagonists to impede the relationship
2. Interrupt any kind of progress or romance with a random third character walking into the scene.
3. Introduce random NTR, cheating, or dark plot into your Comedy Romance.

1. Indeed the brother is impeding the relationship of the MC/FMC infact in this very chapter he impeded them having a relationship building moment.
2. 1 and 2 are kinda the same point tbh but for no reason we have the lil bro sleeping in the room with the 2 of them like why would this be?
3. Random NTR did happen to the brother as a plot point. Nothing said it had to be the main couple for this point.



My thoughts on this chapter are what terrible crap is this? MC just lets his brother do all this crap? Why is he letting him pull him around? Why would he immediately go against what he said to FMC? This series while a little jank with a dense MC was ok and now it's sent it all down the gurgler. What next he'll have a drama arc of moving out with the little bro cause MC is a wet blanket that folds faster then origami?

Been off MD for a bit, but my response:
1: You ignored the first point and conflated it with the second; the original first point is about the brother only existing to 'impede the relationship', as the new chapter is pointing to his weakness has served as a strength for it. MC learned something potentially negative about Female Lead and still supports her unbiasedly when seeing her in a situation easy to misinterpret for what the brother feared; that shows a deep level of trust and respect.
2: Again, the progress was made by that point, having the brother drag him off only served as a way to establish the next step of the story, not impede it.
3: When people complain about NTR in a romance work, its about the main lead. Her having had an ex as we now know, or a potential male in her life is likely the NTR the original commenter feared; they would've believed the brother was negative foreshadowing for her being in a relationship with someone else, but that was just an assumption on their part, hence the line about the main relationship not being infringed upon.
4: You're also kinda guilty of making wild assumptions based on a development of a single chapter here bud. Yeah, its unfair for me to say that now that my points have been confirmed but I woulda said the same even if your assumptions had been proven right by now; while you can try to infer what happens next its not fair to authors to assume that something you dislike in this chapter means the characters have been flanderized permanently.

 

[Remy88Lebeau]

I love how worried he is for his brother and how cautious\wary of FMC he is AFTER seeing her out with another guy.

I don't like seeing all the comments calling Lil' Bro annoying, how he should mind his business, or how bad of a character he is

 

[unnamederror]

damn, the author is an elementary kid or something?

 

[dibblee]

little brother's college funds are draining his wallet

 

[harukuro]

I feel so sorry towards the little brother but have he ever tried asking on whos house they are living right now?
He seems dumb as fck.

 

[wallsg]

considering 1: They're not in a relationship yet and B: Their living situation is nonstandard and hard to explain.

I found this amusing. Too bad you couldn't continue the mismatches with III), iv), and e).

 

[wallsg]

I mean... he's the mc in a rom com. Spines are in short supply.

Only in Manga and Anime are Humans invertebrates.

 

[colorlesseatstomboys]

Little brother finna needs his pants to be pulled down and his ass whooped with a leather belt.

 

[ShinduPK4]

Yeah, I'm close to dropping this. This has all the signs of a romcom without any progress.

• MC who refuses to date FMC, but still wants to have all the privileges associated with it
• MC's assertiveness is pretty much null, he'd jump off of the building if you asked him nicely enough. He's just passively going with anything that happens
• The author has already added one cockblocking character, his infantile brother, and I'm sure the woman from the office who discovered them and called MC a "simp" will be the second one

So they're not dating because MC refuses to, despite being close to each other and doing all of the things couples do (besides sexual stuff), but they still hide their relationship for some reason, thus eliminating any way to progress the story (how convenient to fill the pages of a pointlessly long manga, right?). And IF SOMEHOW they manage to make some progress, someone shows up and fucks it up (right now, I'd be his brother or the blonde bitch from the office).

---

And again with the infantile characters. His brother is supposed to be in college, why the fuck is he behaving like a little kid? His brother is a working adult, if he wants to have sex, he should be able to.

 

[DioBrandoXVII]

I would beat the fuck out of my brother if he acted like this

 

[FlyingThunder]

so believable to just pull another adult to the hotel and he is just fine with it
