I voluntarily read and reviewed and ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own

I love manga! I also loved Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha when I was a kid. Both these series were written by this author. Yet, this one just didn't hit the mark for me.
It definitely has the style of older manga and unfortunately has a lot of the same jokes and gimmicks. Aka guys being perverts and gals overreacting, hitting their lecher boyfriends (but staying in the relationship), and gals occasionally loosing their tops.

I just... sigh I guess I've grown and after reading some amazing works, I stopped enjoying these types of stories.

If a guy believes he is going to marry his current girlfriend, I don't understand how he could cheat on her and have it not be called on or having it be considered a natural thing.
It's a shame since I could tell it is supposed to be funny, but more than anything I was bored.
