If we're talking Mei then yes, her story is written from an adult's point of view. She's more a salaryman than a human being :)
i agree that her character is more mature and adult-like, but for my question, does it apply to the totality of the story. for example, if the characters were in college or older, would the character's personalities still work with the story? if so, then (imho) Saburouta-san is guilty of cookie-cutting a story. by that i mean an idea was hatched from an adult's POV, but applied to a story about of bunch of kids. it only works because readers are used to it, but again imho it does an injustice to the story as a whole. so dont get me wrong, the fact that we are having this discussion says tons about Saburouta's story telling abilities, i just beg the question if they are being lazy to a degree.
ok, that's my mini rant for the day. BTW, Oy! Mei is human. she just has a hard time relating to other humans.
;-)
Who else thinks saburouta ran out of ideas & stopped giving a damn?
i hope not. if so, i wonder if success is starting to take its toll. you always hope not, but i'm sure many of us could name instances where it has caused really good artists to stumble, be it in print or on the screen. however, this kinda goes along the same lines as my response above. maybe "stopped giving a damn" is a bit extreme, but certainly possible. i hope not and will take a slightly higher opinion that it is laziness in the story as a whole. and if chapter 16 is some crack-pot resolution to this conflict, then (sigh) i very well may have to agree with you.
Is pretty obvious she's interested on Sara
Oh I missed the twincest? Damn i'm getting old
i'm actually surprised no one has mentioned this earlier. yeah, the twins are rather creepy and the way Nina hawks over Sarah says, "i'll do anything to make my Sarah happy, so watch it you... or you'll be next." I really hope something like Nina inadvertently confessing to Sarah happens. it will be really funny to see how her little-big sister handles that.
