The premise behind the protagonist's behavior is nothing spectacular but yet refreshing, meaning it's not really done before. There is actually an interesting draw to it, though I'm disciplined. When I finish it, perhaps I might understand why this title is so hot, and I might even do a review on it. Volume 3 was just released about a week ago. So I'm guessing the Chinese version will be out soon.

IN most of the cases, it's references that are added. However, I can still understand the plot even without.larethian wrote:Furthermore, he is the straight man of the series, throwing tsukkomis left and right, especially at the two girlsSpoiler! :Spoiler! :

Yeah, too lazy. Who cares about that when I'm a supervisor and a translator who can just put up the page?
