So I guess if you wanted to calculate how glacial the pace is, you could map out how many 1k+ page chat threads it's taken us to get to the point where Tomo and Jun go on what they won't acknowledge is a first date

Disliking it is one thing, descending upon its thread to shitpost is another. I have no idea why tomochan elicits such a volatile reaction from chat thread posters but boy folks get worked up over tomochan not being perfect.

Now that the go-to place to read it is gone, what's the new place to read it daily?

On the flip side even mild criticism of it gets some weird reactions. There's no cabal of people that decided to hate tomochan for no reason, it's just that when any negativity at all is called out as shitposting that happens to fuel some resentment that keeps bouncing between both sides!

Legit criticism is one thing - you'll see those of us who like it agreeing that yeah, it suffers from pacing problems, repetetiveness problems, and god-Jun-sucks problems. Yes, mousou telepathy is better in that way.

That's fine, but coming in here merely to say, "i dont like this, gas this thread," or to post actual Garfield strips (yes I made the joke, but don't use the joke to mock the manga repeatedly) multiple times is posting in bad faith and please don't do it.

Fake edit because I backed out to look at the rules, thank you Matoi. Let's all just drop this BS, and I'll post the new tomo when I get to my office.

It's cold out here.

Real edit: No new Tomo yet. Will post later if no one else posts it.

The posts about shitposting fall under that same umbrella too tho. I'm just trying to reach some sort of earnest understanding about those reactions.

As a Valentines present the author of Tomo-chan gave us a hiatus until the 21st, how thoughtful.

All is for the best, in this, the best of all possible worlds
Tomo-chan is fun, but has a sort of Nisekoi thing of everybody getting their characters settled in early and then just sitting there. We all want things to progress, but the mangaka still has stories in mind to tell before then.

Plus, the central conceit of Tomo-chan is "Tomo confessed to Jun and he didn't get it." If things actually progressed past that, the whole thing would have to be retooled. It seems to be doing okay in its niche right now; if the audience gets tired of it, maybe then they'll go for broke.

Tomo gets hit by a firework, yukata catches on fire, lands in hospital with 3rd degree burns on 95% of her body.

As she lays in a coma, Jun visits. With tears in his eyes, he holds her hand and leans in close to her lifeless body and whispers, "I don't know if you can hear me but









































wake up so we can play basketball"


Seriously, the 14th and it goes on hiatus?

Apparently anyone who knew about the author before Tomo was unsurprised by the weirdness surrounding Carol's family.
