Beware

by modnar

Rating: 1.0 / 10.0

A woman who wants to be a voice-actress, and in order to persue her dream, she won't mind going on a trip with some famous director, and staying an entire month alone with the guy more or less without her boyfriend knowing, even sharing t bath with the director

Among many other disappointing things, especially the famous chapter 24 if you haven't heard about it already. So I suggest to not create much expectation in the fake romance part, unless you are a really "patient" person

@xxarrancarrxx "its almost perfect, especially when aka was about to have sex with the other guy, i sound crazy but it is true you have to try feel what aka is feeling since he lost all that weight for her and also damaged his face and rescued her but if i was aka i would have rejected him"
...he lost the weight for himself. He got them in that accident in the 1st place, and the simple fact that she was in a car with a good-looking famous actor who loves her in order to meet with her bf for a date, says it all...

but I shouldn't only complain about her, the "male lead" shouldn't been such a pussy ever since the director thing from the start, but since he was, what he did was showing a lot of insecurity and got cheated behind his back and never knew it. he got her in the end "happy end", but as a male reader this isn't the most satisfying manga...

I regret not just sticking with the anime...

by Calxur

Rating: 3.0 / 10.0

Seriously... The anime made me feel like it was an unfinished story but even that was better than this tbh...

After a specifically "wtf did I just read" scene and really the many s that were just random ecchi fanservice for no good reason, combined with all the harem vibe I dropped the series...I tried to give it a fair shot and picked it up from where I dropped it after a short break and got to some chapters ahead, to see if after all those situations the plot evolved but to be fair it doesn't really get any better. Again I tried to give it a shot, maybe see if it got better after that weird scene... But it really didn't. The main guy just sounds like he wants to get in bed with every girl all the time... to be honest, again, it felt like a mediocre ecchi harem manga more than anything else (a bit better than just the generic harem ecchi I'll give it that, but it really isn't that much better) and that's not really what it seems to be at first.

Chapter 25 (or was it 24? who cares really) was when I dropped the series at first... If it wasn't obvious. Again not solely because of that scene but it was just the last drop really. Up until then I was already getting fed up but I was like "Hm maybe the guy is like this but being with her will change him and make his character develop". NOPE. After that I got the feeling she's just not gonna aid anything in any character development... Which really reading all the chapters after (up until like 34 or something like that... The whole sister random deal... which was just as bad as that chapter 24 one jesus...) just confirmed it.

If you're looking for a "Mature" and "Romance" manga as the genres suggest you probably should look elsewhere. AT this point the only "Mature" thing about it is really the fact it has some mild nudity and sexual scenes. If you're looking for a Ecchi Harem with a good handful of loli-like characters you might want to give this one a try... just also don't expect anything innovative or extraordinary and be ready for many clichés.

LASTLY
My only true advice about this manga is basically in the title/subject of this comment/review: Stick with the anime. It's not the most brilliant best anime of all times and it leaves you feeling like the story is unfinished but I really do believe it's better to just live with that than it is to pick the manga up and just ruin what is still a reasonably good anime.

It's a good read

Pretty funny. Good romance. Likeable characters.

Now, there's one part that readers have overreacted to and frankly it's a huge overreaction.

The main girl gets saved by this guy who likes her. He gets hurt while saving her life. He then convinces her to have sex with him. She agrees. Now, I've seen stupid people say this is netorare which is straight up absurd. While at most this would have been cheating, there are many factors that were apart of it. She only agreed because she felt guilty that he got hurt saving her. She thought about the main guy the entire time and how she hope he would forgive her. Even though she agreed, she clearly didn't want to have sex with the guy. The guy realized she didn't and stopped. The only things that happened are that she got naked and he groped her. The main girl never intentionally going to cheat because she loves the main guy.

It was decent at first but got boring and dumb as it went on

by moredrowsy

Rating: 3.0 / 10.0

Ever wonder why so many scanlator groups keep dropping this series? Because even the scanlators can't stand this terrible writing.

At first, I love how both of them are caring and dedicated to their work life. However, the characters continuously become more dull and irrational. First off, the male mc is too insecure about his gf. It's always a constant battle of "how he will lose her to the other guy." This seems like it'll be a good setup for drama of solving their love issues but his attitude, dialogues, and choices he makes are beyond rude and downright selfish.

If it was only the male mc that acts childish, I'll have given it a average 5 for being a so-so series. However, the female character started to become worst as the series goes on. She takes every males' advances at face value and doesn't question them.

She even would ALMOST let a guy have forced sex with her because he saved her from a car accident and told her a pity story that he made-up. When he stops with the forced sex, she asks him "what's wrong? why are you stopping?" Is that what you should be saying to a rapist during that moment? And when she finds out that he was lying, she forgives him. That guy basically almost raped you and you're okay with it? Nevermind that, let's be best pals with the would-be rapist.

Seriously. I also agree with the other reviewers. She continuously rejects her BF's sex advances while easily accepting other men's advances. With her bf, she puts up a cement guard. WIth other men, she's as soft as tofu. If she hates sex with her bf so much while getting flustered with other men, just break up already so you can have sex with other men. jeez.

While reading this whole series, I don't see their romance matching. They're always fighting. They're always spout "I love you" but always do the opposite. Throughout the whole series, I was always rooting for them to break up when there's drama. They should just break up and put an end to their miserable relationship. LOL.

Kind of getting bored of this

by sanzei
13 years ago

Rating: N/A

I gotta say, this series is really boring. I liked it at first but it's just repeating the same thing all over.
I've read some of the raging about chapter 24, I can it I was raging a bit because of that as well, but not for the same reason:

Aka almost had sex with that other dude with no resistance at all just because he pushed her a little bit, that was meh I suppose, the thing that makes me rage is that she keeps refusing her own BOYFRIENDS advances throughout the whole series so far(read 48 chapters) and I'm seriously contemplating dropping this show

Well, I guess it can be a good way to kill some time, but if ur looking for a good manga, keep looking, this will just get you bored halfway through

God I am angry

by zensc

Rating: N/A

Well if author wanted me to hate main female character he succeeded in 100%. I fell so bad and angry after those 30 chapters that I cant continue to read this. Though even

killing Lucy in the end of Elfen Lied was less disappointing. I might come back to this in the future cause it has 12 vols already, but right now I am afraid it will turn to another Virgin na Kankei. I honestly have no idea how to rate it so I leave it blank. ! One more thing why Fumiko did not it that he slept with that girl in the beginning while she was away for a month? He was totally convinced that he did it, plus why Aka punched him even when she though he was innocent. I did not get that part. That girl never itted it was a joke. So he would not know the truth.

Chapter 24

by Devil_Crysis

Rating: N/A

People keep on trying to look on the britghside, but there isin't any, you could ask any man in the streets, that if his wife or girlfriend, had a man have sex, or halfway sex whatever you want to call that, they would consider it cheating, even if she had faith on him coming to save her, there was no resistance at all, and at the end, the guy asks her to not tell her boyfriend, and at the end she dosen't tell him or feels anything after that day, so it makes me think "SO WHAT?" cheating dosen't need to be complete, it just has to start.
