2021 and we still gotta make do with bread crumbs after nearing almost 100 chapters. We got a lot of people having to make so many jumps/assumptions/essays to feel better, but tbh at this point, it does just feel like the author is dragging it a bit much, no?

There's no way you could just rent a horse like that... or is there?!

I'm not sure why the majority of people in this thread hope for a poly end. Most of the time you read harem to root for one specific character to win and the story/jokes/plot all normally revolve around how the author leverages that and makes it entertaining for the readers.

So yeah, just based on chapter 1 I'm not sure who to root for but I like the ex-idol and the roommate!

I don't know if its the author or the translation, but I damn near had an aneurysm trying to read this. The speech bubbles and the art were just way too much to follow after a few pages..

Overdosing on HOPIUM from this chapter. It's been 87 chapters, I hope we're getting something special soon.

I think the trope was handled pretty well, although yet again it goes the same route like it always has in most other series where this trope appears.

Anyone else notice a drop in quality this chapter? Not in the story, but I felt the drawings were a bit weak + no backgrounds on a lot of pages. Just me?

The past week has been an overdose of some amazing chapters, thanks to the translators.

I am positively excited for the yukata chapter (plz omichi don't interrupt them!!)

This series is like crack cocaine to me. Also, Kogu has shown from the start to have top energy (sometimes). Kogu is def gonna be the one who takes the relationship to the next step in the coming chapters, and I hope its soon :)

I can't believe its been 100 chapters/almost 3 years since I started reading this. Great 100th chapter, I loved the Sakurako imagination colored panel in the middle.

I was perfectly whelmed with how cliched this chapter was. I hope the finale lands better than this arc.

It's kinda funny (and somewhat irritating) to see people whining about this being "nonsense" or "written like a caricature of a negative stereotype of a feminist tract" when frankly, like it's already been mentioned and explained, it's still miles and miles better than shit like Rising of the Shield Hero with it's false rape accusation BS, "slave child turned slave bride" with the author bending themselves over to keep justify keeping the character a slave and whatnot. Or Goblin Slayer with it's "evil race of rapist" (that like Terraformars, may cause some iffy real life parallels).

And let's not mention Redo of Healer or similar shit like ntr (since I saw someone mention it), because oh boy that's a whole mall sized can of worms.

Again, like it's been pointed out, the "caricature" of the sexist man isn't even that unrealistic like the "but women wouldn't wear bikini armour even in that situation" complain, when again, it's been pointed out that women can be forced to wear high heels even when it's dangerous. There nothing quite as hilarious and infuriating (not to mention speak volumes about how that shit is deeply normalised) than seeing a barely exaggerated depiction of sexism decried by people as "unrealistic", even more when the most "absurd" elements, like the bikini armour, still has real life parallel.

This kind of story really just highlight how works like RotSH and co are insanely bad, immature and childish and most importantly: conventional and dull as fuck (while thinking they're the opposite) in the worst way possible ultimately.

And show how much more interesting they could be if they had any understanding of actual injustice/systemic discrimination.

Based, this is the correct take. But I would like to see it tackled in a not so on the nose way, I hope the later chapters get better in that aspect

Serialization Pog, lets gooooo! I really love this irl stuff, although I'm sure theres a lot more we don't see, its fun to see life through the lens of the author.

Rollercoaster of a chapter, I loved it so much. The next few chapters are setup to be really good and I hope they turn out that way!

Everyday I come to check and I see no new chapter :(

I hope the translators come back sooner rather than later.

You can 'subscribe' to a series and get emailed when it updates. List-icon menu to the left of your username on desktop browser, not sure about mobile.

I mainly use mobile, but yep I see that option by using desktop mode, thanks!

As someone who's rooting for Rinna, I'm sad.

We can still hope right, RIGHT? :(

I take back what I said, I dont care how bad/stupid the whole mother arc was. This chapter was simply too based and made me forget all about that. More of this please!
