Interesting...

The 1st chap touched on so many things I identified strongly with. I guess I'm a hikikomori too, and I also associate numbers with colors and have partial facial blindness! But I never realized a contributing factor to my preferring online vs. IRL interactions was due to the fact that you can see the other person's icon and user name... very interesting! What irritated me about this manga so far is the typical anime/BL cliches (raping the kid to forge a relationship with him, the fact that there are TWO intriguing hacker characters in this chap but the one the story focuses on is the attractive one--seriously, I'd way rather learn about the chubby megane-kun's backstory--a hacker who works for the yakuza?? Is there a story about that yet?!! Now THAT, I'd read!!). I'll keep reading if more chaps get posted since it's sparked my interest, but one last gripe... do Japanese schools seriously still use chalk / chalk boards...? Haven't most schools with 1st world technologies upgraded to white boards and smart boards (or even stuff like a computer w/projector) by now...? Chalk / chalkboards just aren't the most economically- (or probably environmentally-) friendly, and the cleanup / upkeep is so time-consuming...
