Japanese culture its like this they are very formal and only close family menbers adress themselfs by their names.
No, the way they're addressing each other is not weird at all and is in fact the norm in Japan. It's weird to you because it's been translated literally, but if the translations kept the Japanese, then they would be addressing each other as Takeru-sensei and Anna-san. The FL being a pushover is sadly just Japanese stereotype. If you want stronger FL's I suggest reading Korean manwhas instead.
Also, either you've not been following the manga from the start or you've not paid attention: their relationship may have started physically, but they have both grown and developed such that it's a relationship not just "based on sex". The fact that you are shaming and judging people who start their relationships in such ways is horrible. Maybe you personally have not had positive results or experiences with a casual relationship turned serious, but I and many others have. End rant.
I agree, I have seen many animes and mangas were friends and couples adress each other by their last names or titles, so its not a superficial or weird thing its cultural, and the ideal japanese woman its usually polite like the main fl.
Here's your crown, king
As someone who has lived in Japan, it's not at all weird to me how Takeru and Anna address each other. I know so many married couples who still add "-san" to their spouse's name; some even still use the last name, which I often find funny lmao
As this person has said, it may sound weird to you since it's been literally translated to English. For anyone who reads Korean BL, it's akin to translators using brother instead of hyung ("I love you brother/I love you hyung"). Sounds weird and wrong in English, but completely normal in Korean.
Seriously if you gonna write a comment about calling each other with that honorifics, make a research first and then comment
Just stating a comment. It is my opinion. I get clown energy from you. You either to agree or disagree. Some of y’all have the nerve to educate me about honorific when it is part of my culture as well. I understand the concept of honorific. In a hypothetical situation, lets say they get married or meet their parents in hopes of marriage, but this spineless female MC will continue to call her partner “Coach”??? Their relationship is purely based on sex. Some of y’all need to learn how to read without getting triggered, bunch of mouth-breathers.
Bruh I know that, but when will they move onto first name honorifics. This coach thing is going nowhere. You expect her to tell her parents that her partner is “Coach....”
God, you can’t read. I’m just stating my opinion. You don’t need to “educate” me in honorific when it is part of my culture. I’m just analyzing their relationship from an outsider point of view. These main characters are a bunch of pushovers who get into their feelings way too quick. I am not shaming them instead I am wondering if anyone else shares the same opinion as me. Their relationship is frustrating. You are putting the words into my mouth, you mouth-breather. I get a bunch of clown energy from the people who got offended by my comment. Don’t get too into your feelings. “End rant.”
You say " DONT EDUCATE ME ABOUT HONORİFİC ANS JAPANESE CULTURE" and after that you start to waffle about japanede horrific system??? İt's how they are if you don't like it you can drop the reading all mangas cause idk you realized it yet(obviously you didnt) all japanese mangas has same honorific system, japan culture is like that believe it or not and the other thing is almost all smutty romance manga has same kind of female character and same kind of male character, its cheesy and yes it doesn't happen in real life but that's why we are all reading manga, SEE İ EDUCATED YOU ABOUT JAPANESE CULTURE ANS HONORİFİCS
The people replying to you were expressing their opinions as well. And reason they were educating you about honorifics is because you're complaining about it being weird. How can you think the rival is better than the ML? Are you forgetting the shitty things he did to the FL? Seriously, you should probably re-read the series from the beginning if you think their relationship is just about sex. All the development seems to have flown over your head.
Yea, you didn’t. What you are doing is pointless. Just move along, donkey. I know what I’m getting into. I have to waste my time arguing mindless overdramatic clowns who think they need to educate me. This website is literally full of all types of comics. Don’t you think I know what I’m getting my self into? Da fuq this website is on the grey legal side of law. Move along Karen. You don’t have to be offended by my comment. There are people who agree with me. Aren’t people entitled to their opinions? You think your high and might trying to “educate me”, what do you expect? Fulfillment? Entitlement? Egotism? Just go
No. The only people who are raising their concerns feel they’d re entitled and seek fulfillment over things out of proportion. I’m only calling out you self-righteous mouth-breathers. I know what I am getting into. Been reading manga longer than probably your existence, bunch of middle schooler trolls. I appreciate this website because I can read many different types of comics. Don’t try to educate me when it not going work. It’s like a bunch of white people telling me how to Asian. Just go.
I agree with u abt how superficial their relationship is and everything. But I think the whole naming thing is more of a cultural difference and translation thing tho.
Dude is this the first time you read manga or sth? It's totally normal for her to call him sensei, and for him to call her Anna-san.
Also, just cause the relationship started with sex it doesn't mean that it is superficial. They clearly love each other but are also taking it slow. They have time to confirm feelings, time to introduce each other to family, which Anna took the first step in, etc.
I respect that and understand
Good point
Um you call me Karen but you are the one who is not accepting other culture's system??? İsn't it like first rule to be Karen " getting offend by other cultures ", from your comments i understand that you are not over 15 years old and a virgin who thinks she knows a lot about sex and relationships, seriously go educate yourself about all the things you are talking about, i can see your ignorance over comments, it's not even annoying anymore it's just pathetic, a little girl who is trying to understand world from mangas, sad
Bitch please. Just move along. I already moved on.
Trying to use popular (!!!) Terms between the teen society, trying to acti all cool and learning love from mangas, yes you should have move on, preferably to a real life, pathetic really pathetic
Honestly, I prefer the rival dude (the colleague who wears glasses) because the current relationship with the female lead and male lead is superficial and terrible, to me. It’s weird to address you lover by their occupation like “I love you Coach Takeru” instead of their first-name basis. Or in bed, why would you yell “This feels good, Ms. Anna!” I don’t get the logic behind this series! I have read plenty of other smutty series, but this one irks me. The female main character needs to grow a backbone because she is easily swayed. Just because the coach has a good d*ck doesn’t mean he’s husband/partner material. If your relationship is based upon sex and NOT based on trust/emotional bond then good luck with your relationship and marriage.
