nobile's manga / #school(347)

Teenaged boys' love/lust.

Classic case of miscommunication between two sort-of friends and their wishes/regrets about their shared past. I just love Sensei's art style, it's so eye-catching.

Main story is about a grim reaper that becomes enchanted by an infinitely kind human, the very one whose soul he was supposed to recollect. After spending time with her, he decided he'll do everything in his power to keep her from Death's door. I had read some comments about how the "last chapter was too sad" and I spent way too much time attempting (but failing) to prepare my heart for the sad to come. - Fortunately it wasn't that story that had that. The second story (and a one-shot, fortunately) is about an exorcist who, out of kindness, ends up helping out a succubus that doesn't want to behave like other succubi. Happy that her powers had no effect on him, she agreed to marry him, unaware that every kiss they had fed his soul into her.

I think the stories just went downhill. I liked the first story, it was kind of cute. The second story was alright, although it was a bit too sad for me, since you're quite aware that nothing really solved anything at all, and the thing that was so romanticised would become moot in the end. But the stories after those two... all consecutively worse than the previous one. One-dimensional characters, shallow feelings glorified and set on a pedestal as if they really formed deep bonds.

Not my cuppa tea, transfer student unknowingly goes to the "restricted" West stairways, bumps into someone who ends up beating him up and abusing him because he found he liked the transfer student's troubled face.

So many stories with such beautiful people, glasses no glasses, light or dark hair, tall or short, Sensei just makes everybody look absolutely gorgeous. It seems the title story has something to do with one of the stories here: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/gosan_no_heart/ -- I take that back, read the whole thing and I couldn't find the related characters....

HOW DARE MIKI CHANGE HIS HAIR AGAIN!!!! He looked SO GOOD with dark hair and glasses.... Maybe I'm just projecting my love for Kyouya Ootori xP

It seems like this was a part of a different series, or that the "story" being told belonged to a grander story and this was just a side-story.

I might have a heart of ice... didn't really get sad at the story in chapter 1, if anything I got angry. How can a guy gather up the courage to confess to someone and then run away without giving them a chance to react? And never try to make contact with said person (who he had been crushing on the entire time they were together...), only to meet him 5 years later at his bachelor's party? And when that poor guy manages to gather his courage and ask him straight if the guy had confessed to him, just to reply without an answer but have sex with him??? ONLY TO LEAVE HIM RIGHT AFTERWARDS AND SAY THAT IT WAS ALL A JOKE???? What an asshole. Sempai B from chapter 2 was also an asshole, I'm glad C-kun stayed with A-Sempai. I want to hold out hopes that there's a happy ending for both kids in chapter 3. Chapter 4 had YET ANOTHER ASSHOLE... poor kid, seriously. I'm happy transfer student isn't alone anymore, somehow I have this feeling that I've read this story before, but that there was more to it than just this one chapter.... Chapter 6 has the cutest, most understanding childhood friends ever ^_^

I think the guy slapping her was way off line. Yes, it was wrong for her to say "go die" to her stalker, but it DID NOT warrant a slap. She was NOT in the wrong for going off on that guy that fetishised her without even getting to know the real her. It seemed more lie that guy slapped her 'cause he was pissed and felt like she was going off on him (since he and his father were quite similar as the stalker). But seriously, being told "you should be happy someone thinks of you this way" is INSULTING AS FUCK. What, is she so ugly that she should cry tears of joy because some pervert thinks she looks cute and put a made up personality on her body? Give me a break. The second story was far better, even if it was only 7 pages long. Funny, cute, relatable, interesting characters..
