rating: 2.5

lol wtf.

I'm going to bump up my rating to a solid three. I think reading it as it updated was a detriment to my reading experience, because it honestly isn't as bad as I remember it. It's not more than a three though.

I liked quite a bit in this volume. Mainly I liked Kasuya's coworkers. They're fun and I'm hoping Koma is going to be more involved because I love that freak. I would love for Koma and the coworkers to hang out. Also the Reo problem has been somewhat solved this volume with his dick being useless. thanks to “god” lol. There are moments where I almost feel bad for Reo, but then I'm like no? He can't be a redeemable character.

I mostly just want something to happen. Like does this series has an end goal or is it just going to keep going forever as their requests to "god" get more and more ridiculous? It's definitely going towards the direction of Kasuya and Yoshiyuki liking each other. There were a lot of little moments of them being unknowingly jealous and the people around them noticing. It seems like it's going to drag on for a while though. They had so many almost moments that they quickly ruined. I think this volume was maybe setting up for it to go somewhere though? With Kasuya's rival coworker trying to get dirt on him, people around them noticing their weird more than friends relationship, and their own sometimes possessiveness of each other. I'm hoping for something. Now I don't think that it's going to turn into this beautiful love story, but idk! I kind of want a good intimate moment between the two of them, but maybe that's just because I love the way Harada draws. I'm assuming the neighbor is going to be a character in the next volume since something similar happened in Yatamomo where they were getting complaints from their neighbor for their noise and he was in a lot of the chapters after that. Maybe that'll be the catalyst they need. Who knows. I guess I'll just have to wait for volume 5.

En aquest volum torna la vessant més esbojarrada i caòtica de la història, amb cert protagonisme per als personatges secundaris. La relació dels protes és més ambigua que mai, cosa que em descol·loca, a veure com avança. D'una banda semblen molt a gust amb aquest pacte d'exclusivitat, però continuen tractant-se fatal (sobretot el Kasuya, que és un malparit calculador, envejós i pendant) així que costa d'interpretar els moments d'intimitat ^^' surrealisme divertidíssim amb un fil conductor més clar, amb ganes de més!!!

Poco a poco se menciona más el POSIBLE (o imposible) gusto entre los protagonistas, casi siempre con escenas de comedia grotesca y fumadas, sacadas de no sé dónde pero un avance es un avance :0

I think turning this into a longish series was a mistake. Vol1-2 were perfect. Now shit is just getting repetitive and plain weird without the funny, because even the funniest joke can grow stale when it's repeated over and over again. I think I'll wait until it's over before continuing with the series, if I ever do.

Cine.

[laiaowo · Rating 3 out of 5]

Muy divertido. Lo mejor es que su relación va evolucionando, poco a poco, pero lo hace y de forma muy divertida. Es interesante como todo el mundo lo nota menos ellos.

[María González Gil · Rating 5 out of 5]

En la misma línea de absurdez y diversión perversa. Deseando que salga el siguiente. Harada es una maestra!

quién no quiere un pito desmontable

[zy忍 · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love the slow integration of the domestic side of them. The MCs won't ever let it show, but it's slowly getting somewhere more than just comedic (if you get what I mean). I predict the author will end this series with a you-have-to-imagine-the-rest-of-their-adventure-but-for-now-we'll-end-it-on-a-lighthearted-note. I do want to see the MCs in a different dynamic and how it would play out.

[Milenrrama · Rating 4 out of 5]

Se va alejando poco a poco de los paneles llenos de escenas porno (no mucho tampoco, porque necesita conservar su esencia) y desvía el humor gamberro en una parte importante hacia el slowburn, lo cual beneficia mucho al ritmo de la obra y hace que encuentre un equilibrio que le sienta muy muy bien.
