They should've taken the money with them and made more money at an actual casino for their wedding funds.

What sort of 'box' are we talking about?

I know this isn't the first and not the last story to do it, but does this happen? Do people just get up to other people and grab them? And if so how often does that happen? I know I know, it was done to save time and jump right into the issue of this guy being a nuisance. But at that point just cut to Maki going back with drinks and show Julia in the distance looking distressed with a guy or two around her. I think social anxiety is common enough nowadays that it would be even more relatable to the viewers, really.

But that's just something that bugs me whenever a situation like this occurs in a manga. Otherwise, the story was cute as heck, and if this is this author's first uh... "official"? Professional? Release, then I can't wait to see more. I could even see this get a short serialization. We would just need enough "random, extreme situations" to put them into.

I had a moment of being unable to suspend my disbelief at it more in this story than usual because of where they were in this particular story too. A place where money is being won, and people start getting aggressive and grabbing random women? Security would have them out instantly.

And this is a great oneshot as a professional debut. Hope to see more of their work in the future.

For a debut this was pretty well done! Both characters were super cute and by Julia's standards they were already girlfriends anyway so it was a win/win in the end.

Waitamoment what happened with all her winnings?
She won so many times at the slot machine she had two big boxes filled with tokens or whatever. I'm not sure how this business works in Japan but surely the token thingies can be exchanged for money or prizes - right?

I could read another twenty-five chapters of these two.

I like the balance between the denseness of typical rom com manga and the characters actually being somewhat self aware

You can tell this is someone without a ton of experience; there was a bit of abruptness to it all, like they just haven't quite gotten the knack of transitions yet, a couple of things like that. But its heart was in the right place; I look forward to what they'll do with a bit more polish.

She won the biggest prize of all: a girl's heart.

I believe gambling is actually illegal in Japan due to its association with yakuza. So you can get cheap prizes but not money. The shady workaround for this is that some of the prizes can be exchanged for cash nearby. The trick is finding out what and where.

I don't know the full scope of things and how it compares to anime and manga but I've heard that there are catcallers who do that sort of thing too. Very likely those overly aggressive and touchy ones
