Took a Break

It wasn't a bad story at all but...how do I say this? The exposition was a bit... forced? Especially on chapter 8 (where I had to pause for now), it seems like the author throws in characters to force the plot along, rather than develops the characters and let the plot flow from them organically. It's a subtle difference but it really changes the way the story is received, imo.

Ex: chapter 8, the guy with the glasses is explaining the fight as it's happening and, miraculously, as soon as he explains what Tiji did and the problems he now faces, Tiji manages to get past the problem instantly! The entire scene just seemed so awkward, it reminded me of this page in Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun, where the background characters are desperately trying to build a background story for the MC (≧∀≦) http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/gekkan_shoujo_nozaki_kun/mf/v02/c026/5/

    I get what you're saying. It feels pretty rushed throughout, and to be honest it makes it feel like kind of a waste to read. I like manga like this, but when the MC always ends up winning it's pretty disappointing. Also the fact that the characters are just quickly talked about and that's it, makes me feel like there isn't much of a story line.
