Well I cant say it isnt realistic but I seriously wasnt expecting rape. Like what the hell?

It's not rape. Takagai firmly says no, and Shiina comes to her senses and apologizes, but things are awkward between them for the next chapter and a half.

If you're curious as to what happens and can't wait for the scanlators to upload Chapter 5, check out Renta. The chapter preview for Chapter 5 shows the resolution to this cliffhanger, but not to Takagai and Shiina's relationship problems.

Oh it is just attempted rape. Much better.

It is not even attempted rape. Being pushy but ultimately stopping when someone says no is, like, the opposite of rape. Can we stop misusing the word? We don't need to go around branding people who stop when told to stop as rapists.

"Suspect pushed the woman down after being told that she was being pushy and making the woman uncomfortable. Suspect then held her hands down and began to push her hands under her clothes. Meanwhile the victim was telling her repeatedly to stop."

Tale as old as time.

it is "better" objectively.

"Ma'am, quit being hysterical. It was just attempted rape."

"I think yours was tastier" I stan this smooth line even if it fell on dense ears. Also when people say it is fine, it is usually motherducking fine. Please dont insist. Now what is she gonna lick when her bestie isnt looking?

This is a setup for a punchline in the next chapter and I cant wait for Yokoe to be punched emotionally...and physically. She is just tempting fate at this point.

Oh no I was hoping they would do the sad flashback in one chapter. I really dont wanna get attached to the characters knowing it ends with heartbreak. But I also wanna see them more because they seem less stuck up compared to Ojousama Highschool students. Why is life so cruel?

I think Asumi is still roleplaying as a shy girl cuz she knows it gets all the girls going and be more aggressive. Really getting a bang for her buck you know.

Also roommate is too cute and funny. Did you see that pretending to be reading pose. Read to me like one of your french girls.

Is there a name for this? Like the person having two identities and their loved ones reminiscing about the other persona while they are with them. Like with Superman and Spiderman.

Loves My Alter Ego / Two Person Love Triangle

Yes thank you. It is one of the few tropes I dont get tired of for some reason.

Oof. Snap back to reality. At least these two dorks are doing just fine. They should eat at a table though.

It is not random explosions. You know why it exploded. We are not talking about probabilities. We are talking about agency. We always did. That is why I called it cheap because wind is a random event while a caused explosion is planned however unlikely it is.

That is a weird double standard. They're both exactly the same degree of author fiat and I am legitimately baffled that you accept one but not the other. Especially since romance is, as noted elsewhere, pretty much the genre of happy accidents and fantastical coincidences. If that bothers you here and only here, maybe you should reexamine your relationship with other fiction and figure out why that's the case.

...anyway, now we have a new chapter that shows it didn't even work properly because Watanabe is an emotionally damaged brick. Yoshioka remains the star, and I think she's probably a bodybuilder, carrying the whole damn plot like she is. The cuts in this chapter were kind of jarring and it wasn't clear what happened with the conversation between Sara and Fuyu until she rematerialised (literally, lol) in the end of the scene.

As far as the flashback ghost, I suspect some kind of abuse/gaslighting happened where Fuyu liked Mika but was told that she's a mob and should only watch or something.

It is not a double standart. I have laid out my stance clearly and you are the one who came up with ridicilous and irrelevant examples. "Oh no my love story isnt going anywhere. But what if it was windy that day?" Cheap like one of those harem mangas

I...I think I prefer the het...

WHAT HAVE I BECOME???

Let us be stoned together then. Boy is a good boy and good girl loves him. It would be awesome if they got together. If Hiyama was a boy we would have very different tags up there.

Uh oh. Faceless girls in flashbacks are never a good sign. They either thoughtlessly destry protaginst's dream with a few words or maliciously make their lives hell with bigotry. In fact being faceless pretty much makes you irredeemable as far as I am concerned. Everybody got a face. Why dont you? Sold yours to the devil maybe?

A car exploding when shot is about as realistic as a gust of wind blowing a declaration of love to its recipient: technically possible but the odds are astronomically low.

Except one has agency in it and one does not. You know which one so lets drop this pedantic bs

Random inexplicable explosions don't have agency either lol. Not sure why you felt the need to move the goalposts before terminating the conversation, but okay.

Relying on random acts of nature to progress the story seems a bit cheap. I mean it can totally work but not in a romance manga.

And cars shouldnt explode in action stories

They usually explode for a reason. When Bad guy or the good guys shoots at it for example. Usually not when a random wind blows out of nowhere.

I am kind of glad they didnt get together officially. Sometimes you can crave the affections of a person without the pressure of a relationship. And it would be too much like that other story in this volume.

I knew she was gonna brag about seggs but I didnt expect an entire chapter dedicated to it. Is the next chapter gonna be Chiaki being all groped out?

From the first two pages, this manga messed with the comventions and I am here for it. And they are 17. By manga standarts they might as well be retired

This also feels like a one shot where story is neatly wrapped up. There is no hook or anything. Kinda weird.
