Did nobody care about this chapter because it was a Tsugumi one? :confused:

Best part of the chapter: Marika is next!

So what romance cliches haven't been used yet?

Raku still hasn't been magically transformed into a girl, but I dunno if the setting's wacky enough for that.

Last issue Raku dressed like a damsel in distress. :shrug:

But magical? Closest thing that could happen is Claude leaving an experimental gender-changing drug(for espionage purposes) in the middle of the room that looks like a traditional japanese sweet, Tsugumi takes it, Raku finds it and thinks its from Onodera because reasons.

... I gave this too much thought. :negative:

Okay, Ruri using the ultra rare black stone that is 10 times more potent than the arrows on Shu cracked me up. I knew the first part of that scene was going to happen, but everything else was golden.

Marika will get her time of day, don't worry. Might even win Raku's affection somehow.

And then succumb to Anime Cancer

I hate you because that is the only way it could happen. :qq: Her being so frail is the perfect setup for it.

When will you guys ever learn that there's no plot progression to speak of in this manga? At best there's gonna be a new plot point that will be forgotten in a few weeks, like "Zawsze in love". Remember how many chapter ago that was? And how many times it has been brought back?

After reading the chapter: :lol:

e: As a bonus This chapter was voted the best chapter.

I don't know how to feel about this chapter. It seemed worse. It was will he won't he mixed with will she won't she and nothing much for 20 plus pages. A Beehive experiment would even be welcome right about now.

HiveCommander posted:

Better still; they both look into each other's eyes, Raku is about to tell her something but Onodera interupts and says "You're my best friend!"

Oh, hey, thanks for giving me a reason to want to read the next chapter. I'd love to see the chapter after that where Ruri finds out and murders Onodera.

Well after digging through the 4chan archived thread, it looks like someone found the answer:

Of course I didn't think it was anime cancer but I wasn't sure what it could have been. That sounds like the most likely scenario. That would also explain why Raku's dad was so cool with it. That or he likes messing with Raku which is also an acceptable answer.

Dear God, man, are you trying to kill yourself?

Any kind of RomCom or Harem like this relies on it being episodic so that you don't get hit with the concentrated turbo-denseness and want to stab the main characters.

Even established stuff that people respect like Oh My Goddess! or Kimi ni Todoke is just *painful* if you blitz it.

I'm trying to think of any "RomCom" thing that could be taken in a concentrated dose. I'm actually drawing a blank.

Not sure if many would count it, but I could see Jitsu Wa Watashi Wa/My Monster Secret as a bingeworthy series. Good pacing and actual progression while being a harem series.

e: It's also getting an anime over the summer, however, much like Nisekoi the faces really make this series shine and I would most definitely recommend the manga.

Anime: Was that an anime original, or did I miss all of those magical kosaki chapters? :confused: I remember one, maybe two chapters. That aside, it was okay. Shuu owns, but we already knew that.

Manga: I want to say "No Marika. :colbert:" and be done with it, but seeing both Kosaki and Chitoge talking about what pretty much can be described as a failed year was pretty :smith:.

Unless this turns out to be Chitoge's Mom mkII (which would honestly be kind of lame), I'm not seeing a viable out for this that wouldn't come across as kind of pathetic.
