Woah. I really missed this series, particularly the little sister x delinquent storyline. I do follow the pretty pictures on the author's Twitter and just hope the comments mention what's happening.

This series really does too much “slapstick partner on partner violence”, which clashes particularly with its actual plot. It’s a shame.

Bruh having your study abroad canceled midway is rough. Hopefully you get another opportunity.

The slapstick only works for the "innocent" ones. If the two gangsters decide to join, the story stops considering it a joke.

For you, perhaps. It's not excessive in my opinion.

I agree with ya there. I really wanted to like this because I love delinquent stories and the art is nice, but something about it is feels...off? I get this uncomfortable feeling whenever I read it that turns me away, but I can't put my finger on why. I'm glad other people are enjoying it though.

more imouto x deli girl pls

I don't normally mind slapstick too much, HOWEVER, I do not like it in this case because Minami was clearly in a very physically abusive environment, but Iori keeps hitting her. That is not okay with me.

I mean, it's not like she hit on a regular basis either nor she hit without reason. What Iori do is far from what Minami was been through.

"Oh, this dog was horribly abused in its former home. I'll just hit it occasionally, it's fine." That argument doesn't stand up so well when it's not people involved... nobody should hit anything ever, aside from in play. Slaps to the face, punches when annoyed, that stuff doesn't fly with me.

Just rereading it and it's overexagerrated to say that Iori hit Minami that much when she actually smack only 2 times. I don't know where the "too much slapstick" come from but it's exagerated. She smack her one time here and it's actually the first she does so and another here. Like I said, it's not like she hit or abuse Minami on a regular basis, yeah the first time she hit her was overreaction but the second time was because she thought she cheat on her.

Also it's worth mentionning that Iori was actually turned on when Minami bite her whenshe wanted her ears pierced.

I kind of got the impression it merely mildly annoys Minami, who after all has ample experience with serious violence and fights. Iori, a complete amateur and not exactly a physically formidable specimen, hitting her probably works about the same as a kitten attacking a scarred alley cat - she isn't taken seriously at all. (Minami herself will also dope slap Iori for trolling, FWIW.)
...then again if you look at how her first meeting with Saori - a trained fighter who can and does hit very hard when she wants to and casually made threats against her life - went Minami probably also has some unhealthy issues about that kind of thing, given she apparently found her adorable... >_>

Shizuku and Saori have a very different dynamic which, if I'm reading it correctly, basically boils down to the former still being too damaged to quite function normally and the latter being able and willing to face her frequent relapses into violent outbursts head on. Saori being perfectly capable of beating her down probably also has the side effect of establishing her as the "dominant alpha" in the rather primitive mindset Shizuku seems to operate on - that is, someone worth respect and listening to. They also have an unspoken agreement going that while Shizuku lashing out at Saori is duly settled with fisticuffs and no harm no foul, everyone else in the school is Right Out - the one time Shizuku broke this, even if for arguably noble reasons, Saori got hella upset. (Not in the least, one imagines, because she understands what kind of scrutiny and prejudice Shizuku is subject to due to her ugly history - lashing out at "civilians" will harm herself.)

Rather messy that whole thing, but it does serve to effectively contain Shizuku's difficulties in adjusting to civilised society.

Just rereading it and it's overexagerrated to say that Iori hit Minami that much when she actually smack only 2 times.

https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/fusoroi_no_renri_ch03#3 punched for kissing
https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/fusoroi_no_renri_ch06#2 slapped in the face with groceries

https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/fusoroi_no_renri_ch23#2 slapped for messages on a phone, then pounded in the back

So.... yeah.

Then there's her "friend":

https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/fusoroi_no_renri_ch10#2 bashed in the mouth with ashtray by "friend"

And of course the sister:
https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/fusoroi_no_renri_ch15#2 sister knees her in the gut

Just saying, Minami is treated like a punching bag in this story and I dont care if "the punches aren't super hard" or whatever. I personally don't like it. Which is a shame because I really like the story otherwise. And I'm a sucker for piercings and tattoos on someone who is actually pretty mild and gentle with others, which doesn't help....

Why this one is here ? Of course she flinch, she just got beat down by her friend and you said it yourself caress not slapping

https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/fusoroi_no_renri_ch06#2 slapped in the face with groceries

Come on, this one would barely hurt.It's a plastic packaging she was thrown not an ashtray.

I don't know, I personally don't feel that Iori treat her like a punching ball lately. I meanthe sister/delinquent is way more violent than them tbh, i mean hell, they fight in the hallway and the sister even kick her in the leg. If anything the other side is worse.

Not to mention this was right after what was, essentially, breaking off from her longtime emotional anchor (as problematic as that relationship now was, though one notes whenever Minami later reminiscences about Shizuku it's in fond and perhaps a little sad tones) and with all her fears of being rejected by Iori due to her fairly awful past raw on the surface. Bet your ass she was jumpy and anxious as all Hell.

Dunno what the Japanese standard practices in such things are but 'round here that size of package can easily hold half a kilo of stuff, depending ofc what exactly is in it. Getting one of those thrown in your face from point-blank distance will hurt and quite likely break your nose I'd say.
That's one of the few points where the manga actually is engaging in wholly questionable wanton Saturday cartoon violence.

My intention was merely to show that Minami has been on the receiving end of some unnecessary violence, and that one I put in there just to show that even if everything we the reader actively see happening is "in good fun", clearly Minami expects something bad so she's not just all "lol you hit me".

Not trying to argue so much as point out why I personally see things as kinda mean for Minami. I still think she and Iori have a nice chemistry, I just think Iori needs to be less punchy.

Necessary reminder that's pretty much the only time ever we see her being jumpy like that. As discussed above it had little to nothing to do with physical violence per se (she seems, sadly, pretty emotionally numb to that kind of thing) but rather her considerable anxieties at the time - she'd basically just cut herself loose from Shizuku and was extremely nervous over whether Minami would be able and willing to accept her "warts and all".

I wasn’t even talking about my general distaste for comedy-hitting, y’all. Specifically, that this series wants us to care about Minami’s traumatic history and distrust of intimacy and then has Iori hitting her at the drop of a hat isn’t smart. It renders the drama unconvincing while the drama makes those attempts at lighthearted moments grossly discomfiting.

Oh I missed this series. It's been a while so I may have forgotten but who are these two? And how does she not recognize a voice she was just listening to literally seconds ago? That's a drastic gamer voice she got going.

Anyways, I need me more Imouto x Delinquent chapters.
