Almost every chapter she's in leaves me wondering just who the hell the principal married. I mean, if she's this active with others involved, can you imagine what she did for her own relationship matters?

I think the principal might be bad at her job.

I love her mom. I also love that the main character knows it's the principle immediately.

That was both hilarious and adorable. Adoreious? Hilarable? Anyway it was definitely one of those things.

Also, this chapter makes me a bit sad that we'll probably not see this animated. Even if I'm not sure how they'd do the tilted frames in animation.

Goddammit, I shouldn't have binged through all the chapters currently available! Seriously, though, this was a great find. It's basically like a better version of Nisekoi, except here all of them are idiots and the reaction faces are less extreme.

I love the faces in the manga as much as the next person but I'd love to see all the characters get done in the serious style again for a chapter, especially if they are all taking something completely ridiculous deadly serious

Remember when MC's thing was that he couldn't lie? Neither do I.

The point is that other harems at least keep their gimmicks. I don't recall the "MC always tells the truth" thing coming up past the first ~5 chapters. I'm still enjoying the hell out of this manga, but it's really forgotten about a pretty big character trait for the MC.

It's probably actually still the case, it's just that everyone around him is too stupid to recognize when he's lying. It's a match made in heaven.

Well, it's not like he's had to explicitly lie to someone (other than Dadigami) recently. He works fine as both the straight and not so straight man. Also I'm not reading this for HIS gimmick.

There's a good reason why over in the Surreal Daily Life Manga thread it became known and beloved as "-the Manga" before it acquired its current nickname of "Truthism".

I never liked "Truthism" as a nickname, but I suppose it's hard to come up with a good nickname for something whose title is roughly "The Truth Is I Am...". And, yeah, I love the faces in this manga. Just can't get enough of the goofy grins, plus there're some funny bits.

I always translated the title as "Truth be told..." myself. And yeah, the "can't lie" gimmick was just forced in order to somehow justify a completely boring and unremarkable protagonist.

I like "Truthism" for a nickname because it fits with my impression of Youko having a southern accent.

I'm pretty sure it was actually to justify his exaggerated reaction faces. The point was never that he's particularly honest or anything, just that he has the worst poker face ever.

Yeah. I've felt that despite the rather strong statements in the beginning that it was pretty clear that the thing about him not being able to lie wasn't a thing of principles or not knowing how, but being really, really, really goddamn bad at it because of how expressive his face is. Just two pages after after he says that, see how Asahi reacts to being (backhandedly) praised.

He was just thinking about what he'd be like as a parent. I doubt she's his daughter though, probably a more distant descendent if I had to hazard a guess. Alternately maybe Kuromine's family isn't so "perfectly normal," but I wouldn't actually like that option. I was wondering when she was going to show up because you can see her on the cover of the 6th volume, didn't expect it to be so soon.

I am going to blame my not picking up on that on having just woken up. I suppose the "distortion of history" means she's going to be there to make sure that the future where she exists happens by getting Kuromine to hook up with a specific person. Poor Aizawa is going to have one more obstacle .
