In an event that has shaken the manga fan community in Japan, the popular Japanese comment forum has been the scene of a fervent debate about the manga’s long run.Kanojo, Okarishimasu“. Japanese Internet users have expressed growing concern about the lack of plot progression and the need for the series to reach its conclusion..
This discussion is a constant criticism that has been circulating in the West for some time now, where fans of the manga have been expressing their desire to see a resolution to the story. However, it seems that Japanese readers have finally caught wind of the situation as well, leading to intense debate online.
“Kanojo, Okarishimasu,” created by Reiji Miyajima, debuted in 2017 and has kept readers enthralled with its plot centered on Kazuya Kinoshita and his contracted relationship with Chizuru Mizuhara. Although the series has enjoyed great success and has been adapted into an anime series, many fans feel that the story has become stuck in a repetitive loop without moving towards a satisfying outcome.
The work has been praised for its drawing style and charismatic characters, but complaints about the lack of development in the main relationship have become increasingly prominent. Followers expect the author to take steps to advance the story and provide proper closure to the plot, as demonstrated by the comments:
- «The story hasn’t progressed even one millimeter, haha».
- «The person writing this makes it more and more terrible every time.».
- «If it was a slice-of-life story, then I would understand. But it’s supposed to be a romantic comedy.».
- «I really like the girls’ design, I think it’s what has kept the mango alive all these years».
- «Isn’t that manga where the protagonist becomes more and more pathetic? I thought it was already finished».
- «Nothing makes sense in that work anymore, from the concept».
- «The protagonist, Kazuya Kinoshita, is a complete, reprehensible bastard.».
- «This manga is even disgusting male readers, who are supposed to be its target audience.».
- «The girls are very cute, but the protagonist is boring and embarrassing to watch».
- «I think it’s a worse story and characters than “Nisekoi: False Love”. I stopped reading it after a few chapters, how wise I was back then.».
- «The third season is currently airing. I think the story stops being interesting at this point.».
- «I bought a total of twenty-eight volumes, but I stopped when I realized that Ruka-chan, my favorite girl, had been relegated to an occasional character.».
- «Unfortunately, the franchise’s items continue to sell a lot, especially because of Kana Hirayama’s designs. If someone else had taken over, the franchise would probably have died a long time ago.».
- «No manga like this crap should last more than thirty volumes, what a shame».
- «It seems to me to be one of the most insipid romantic comedies, and it saddens me to see that it has enough support to have already surpassed thirty volumes.».
- «The protagonist is too pathetic, even if he were a high school student. But he is a twenty-something college student!».
- «I thought the play would end when the paid relationship between the two became known, and they would eventually take the step towards a real relationship. But it seems that both Chizuru and Reiji Miyajima want to continue squeezing readers’ wallets».
- «Mami-chan is no longer the most hated character in this franchise, now that position is occupied by the author himself
