Comment on ChapterTonari no Hachuurui-kun - Chapter 1

it's cute, but something about it is tinkering with me. maybe it's the sunshine × gloomy person cliché, maybe it's because it feels like the girl is going to become his reason to live or something, or maybe it's just that the whole setup feels a little too good to be true. And the girl being overly goody-goody with a stranger is bothering me a bit. I'm not saying i hate it, it's just making me uncomfortable, because this manga feels like a call for help, like literally an escape from reality... but i'm gonna keep reading tho, maybe it's because i'm in emotional state since the last few hours

@kanekomai I'm sorry but if your looking for common sense in fiction it's best to not consume it anymore I'm telling u right now every piece if fiction is wish fulfilment Bad or not A story is trying to seel an ideal self of reality Because this type of set up is possible in real life but the chances of it is almost Zero So please don't go into story with that mindset of it had to be realistic no it does not it just has to be good and this is only one chapter keep Reading until u find out why u disliked it that's why I read romance Because I dislike Romance
@Koiji Mandoza first of all, i had a bit of a hard time understanding that 😅 uhmm the thought is kinda all over the place... but if you're disagreeing with my comment then....ahh well, i don't really know how to respond to that. i was just expressing my opinion on it. i enjoy romance too, actually. i read a lot of it, and i don't think there's anything wrong with looking at a story that way. if something feels off to me, i'm gonna say it, just like if something feels good to me, i'll say that too. i get that fiction is full of fantasy and idealized situations, and i've enjoyed plenty of stories that don't really make sense lol. i don't need a story to be realistic to enjoy it. i just don't think enjoying something means i have to switch my brain off completely. sometimes it's fun to reflect on why something makes you feel a certain way, whether that's positive or negative. that doesn't mean i'm attacking the story or saying it's bad. i was literally just sharing my first impression of chapter 1 😭

@kanekomai mb for the explanation it really was all over the place Erm what I meant it All stories are not realistic us the readers just out realistic experiences unto them like this onethe chances of u meeting a very attractive girl/Boy in this kind of scenario is Rare but not Zero Hencey why it's wish fulfilment of course u shouldn't turnr your brain of These stories are There to challenge out perception of things Such as love And human connection
