Kids, don't copy what Touma-kun did in ch5 page 10, that's pretty dangerous.

I'd kinda like to see an edit of this manga that removes Touma entirely, in a Garfield-without-Garfield sorta way. So that everyone's always talking about this mysterious Touma-kun, and when they talk to her, it's as if she's just offscreen, and they're being helplessly seduced by her dialogue that's deliberately left blank. I wonder if that would actually be an improvement? Just completely elevate Touma to the level of myth, so that we don't get distracted by how uninteresting and unseductive the actual Touma is. She's already such a blank character that it probably wouldn't make a difference if we saw her or not. So why not just leave it up to the imagination?

That actually sounds genuinely entertaining.

Is it just m, or is Touma-kun's face smaller this chapter? All the faces seemed a little less Shuninta-like

Why is there still no comedy tag after this scene (https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/touma_kun_ch05#10) lmao this manga makes no sense anymore, but I guess if I filter out Touma-kun it could be marginally entertaining

That blonde girl has some serious fangs. We almost need a Vampire tag for this chapter.

Each chapter i think maybe this one will be good but no i just can't like this. Does she spread some pheromones or something i can't understand. At least some girls go gay after meeting her.

This actually sounds like an amazing idea. I cant stand looking at her, she looks so uninterested for some reason. Her looks dont match her words and how people talk so highly of her.

That girl got angry cuz Kizushiro kissed the girl she likes first. Man, now I kinda want a chapter thats a continuation to those two girls. Obvious she likes "fang" girl. I wonder if she'll ever get to confess to her.

Yeah, but she’s not the main character. She’s more like an object for a chapter’s heroine to focus on. I like her, though. People just get a little too sensitive over absolutely nothing.

that's kinda the problem there is nothing to the character of Touma. Literally every character trait she has amounts to nothing which is what annoys people. So while yes she is meant to be a focal point for every ones affections in a one sided way there is no reason why anyone would be attracted to here other than "o my god Touma smiled at me and called me cut I'm in love" and as it never progresses beyond that point and her character has not been developed past that we never understand why the girls fall for her.

Asking how other characters fall for Touma is like asking how Superman flies.

Waiting for an explanation or development on that specific point will only end in disappointment and completely misses what the story is actually about.

Thank you. I've been amazed at the number of people who think the fact that they themselves would never fall for Touma is relevant to the story.

It's like asking why flowers and stars appear around certain characters who (in the opinion of readers) do not deserve to have flowers and stars appear around them.

Then I guess you will be surprised for a very, VERY long time. People probably understand that Touma-kun's charisma is an assumption that needs to be true in order for the manga to proceed, but I'm pretty sure when they say she is in fact not at all charismatic, they are saying it out of the context of the manga? It is like watching a comedy and the comedians on stage made a joke, and the audience in the show all laughed very hard. You don't laugh because you don't think it is funny. Same case here. People find her plain and boring, which I won't say true or false anymore, but it is definitely relevant, simply because it is their opinion on the character in the story.
If Touma-kun's charisma doesn't make sense then it doesn't make sense. Even Superman flying doesn't make sense (defying physics law and all), but people accept it over time. Still, it is not like him flying makes any more sense than it did in the past right? People just learn to not question it, so until then, leave the curious kids alone dude.

^I got the point long ago, thanks. There is a significant difference, however, between saying, “To me, Touma is a bland and boring character, and I am not interested in her,” and “Touma is a bland and boring character to me, and therefore should not be attractive to the characters in the story.”

I have read many stories with characters who were hypnotists, yet none of those characters hypnotized me.

Dude.

Yeah, it's funny how people KEEP coming back to this series, which they apparently dislike ONLY to state how they hate it. I never got that sort of thing, even on YouTube, unless it's something reasonable like hate speech (IDK). Find a story you do like and read that every update. I want to have discussions about what happens in the chapters, and not see people complaining about the same thing every time I come here. Just except that she is a walking chick magnet and a God-like being to a great number of people in this fictional world. That's their reality, apparently. Let's just move on from this pointless topic.

Fair enough friends. Well... there are people who complain about Touma-kun, then there are people who complain about people complaining about Touma-kun. So it's fun to watch, really :3

I think a lot of people misunderstand the point of this series, so I'll say this (though it may have been already said before). Touma-kun is merely a plot device and the element stringing together the short stories. The series aims to explore the guest characters featured in each chapter, not the title character.

Why are people hating on Touma? She's just a nice girl who likes to sleep with every single woman she meets. And she gives them free haircuts, too. What's so bad about that?

It's win-win if you ask me. She gives great sex and nice haircuts to anyone who asks, for free!!! Girl is such an altruist. She's like the bodhisattva of tantric enlightenment!

Wow, Touma-kun is like training wheels, for love and sex, for these girls.

Yes. There should be one of Touma-kun in every school! v^_^v

That blonde girl has some serious fangs. We almost need a Vampire tag for this chapter.

I couldn't help but read chapter 5 as: "Touma-kun against the avatar of everyone in the Dynasty forum who hates her!"

(Btw, Touma-kun wins. No surprise, lol.)
