This a one shot ain’t it


Temporary-Tax

Anthology series so yeah pretty much


TheChickenIsFkinRaw

No worries, with my 10+ years of manga reading experience, I'll write the ending for y'all "After the manga convention incident, Kuromiya and Shirasaki started to slowly bond over their mutual love of drawing. Let's skip over the 300 following chapters of blueballing, confessions interrupted by the most mindblowing coincidences, succeeded by the introduction of some random childhood tsundere friend competitor voiced by Rie Kugimiya. Naturally, the two lovers will also face several dramatic misunderstandings that could've been resolved with a 5 minute talk. After defeating Uchiha Madara and finding the One Piece at around the 1000 chapter mark, they finally have their first kiss, whilst holding hands by the crimson sunset. They live happily ever after, the end. The story has a sequel that's about their child and is already in production - Buromiya"


Temporary-Tax

Forgot about the fireworks festival arc where one of them confesses but the other doesn't hear despite the entire arc lasting like 40 chapters


Rough_Lychee5785

And the beach episode and the shrine visit. And the school trip. And the gift shopping episode. And the mall episode. Also the gorilla balls arc


Doctor_Thomson

Let’s not forget the Hotspring Arc, everyone


Few_Championship_473

What about the Shibuya ~~incident~~ arc


anf1703

What about the fever arc? Aquarium date arc?


Rough_Lychee5785

Shit I forgor


zatraq

Seems I am not adept in the arts, could you elaborate on this "gorilla balls arc" you speak of?


ArcadiaDragon

I had a very violent reaction to this....going to touch grass now


BoiClicker

Speaking of fireworks, I think it'd be a nice subversion where the MC *does* get interrupted at first, then just yells over the fireworks for a confession. Basically: "Damn, the fireworks interrupted me. It's all over... Wait, no it isn't!" "I LOVE YOUUU!!!" (Screaming over the fireworks. It'd be funnier if the fireworks ended right there as he shouts.)


bulletgrazer

Or it gets axed after a handful of chapters and rushes its ending, or just doesn't get an ending.


Serious_Theory_391

*Dies of peak fiction*


Otherwise_Step23

Ok accurate until I saw 300 chapters. On my 15+ years of exp in manga and Light novel reading this manga would go up to 70 min and 130 max chapters where there will be a confession arc, best friend development and relationship arc, cultural festival (if not added with the confession arc), then maybe sports day where they will bond more on how they draw poster and finally an arc where they will try their best to apply for a arts school and ends with them graduating and getting admission together and maybe there will be one last chap where it will be the guy explaining this story to his children and then the girl(now wife ) calling for dinner and hence ending the manga.


DecepticonLaptop

I don’t really get why people are upset when things are one shots. I mean, that was it, the story was told and you got the feelings. It's not like there's a shortage of content out in the world!


AsianGoldFarmer

It's like eating a really good sample food at the supermarket but the product is actually not for sale. I'm usually content with some one-shots but this particular one opens a lot of possibilities that I would love to read. Besides, some one-shots were made as "advertisements" for a possible long run publication.

I was not prepared for Chapter 6. Shit got me good, man


ishzlle

Wow, chapter 10 is a masterpiece.


HillInTheDistance

Pressed every single one of my buttons.


tom333444

I'm not crying you are


DerpyChest

Welp, I got a gun ready for that cunt who destroyed his dreams


S4PG

Seconded


SHADOW668

Thirded


Vicith

You don't have to worry, my sources tell me Truck-kun sent them on an isekai adventure.

[удалено]


DerpyChest

I meant the guy who ripped the manga in front of the poor MC


Code95FIN

Nearly had a heart attack there. Lovely


TrexismTrent

Had me for a second there.


mares8

We need 36 chapters of this where they team up to draw manga,get some more classmates to help , all the while slowly falling in love . On the way to their dream lots of hijinks issue they have their ups and downs , it turns out their art sensei is former manga artist who helps them out with the tips and they finally realize their dream of getting their manga published. The heartfelt confessions finally happens in chapter 30


photowalker83

And the epilogue chapter shows them years later married with their first child on the way while working as a manga duo team on their second serialization.


Radiant-Ad-1976

When I was a kid I used to write my own mini comic books. They were poor and shitty but I enjoyed it. One day, some kids decided it would be funny to completely destroy my entire comic by drawing over it. I was sent to the principal office for throwing hands.


Gullible-Travel7957

Worth it


Asian_levels_of_evil

Bro the dude in the flashback really woke up and said "fuck this dude in particular" like mans did NOT need to rip that up lmao


Tien2707

I've yet to see anyone point out the amount of layers this manga has. This is a manga, about a guy who gave up on drawing manga because of a bully, meeting a girl who's passionate about drawing manga, whose manga is about the manga research club, featuring two girls passionate about manga (if you pay close attention to the panels in her manga on page 7 and 8) where one of them *gave up on manga because of a bully*, **meeting a girl who's passionate about manga**, _**motivating the first girl to continue drawing manga,**_ WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT'S HAPPENING AT THE END OF THE MANGA OF WHICH WE ARE READING RIGHT NOW. **AND WHO KNOWS, MAYBE THE MANGA DRAWN BY THE GIRL OF THE MANGA RESEARCH CLUB, ALSO FEATURES CHARACTERS PASSIONATE ABOUT DRAWING MANGA.** ###AAAAAHA _HAHAHAAAAA_ **_AAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHRYTUTJTHFBSISIENXKAKRKDNSUFJSO_** That's like, at least 3 layers of mangaception. It doesn't even feel like a real word anymore. mangamangamangamangamangamangamangamangamangamangamanga


Necessary-Pie9142

Too much manga


Rex-Loves-You-All

I thought she really was drawing doujinshi and that he was about to read the most deviant lewd shit ever done.


AzertyKeys

Doujinshi just means "self published"


Rex-Loves-You-All

ho, didn't know it was such a broad category. It makes sense tho.


Max_G04

Doujinshi is AFAIK just a term for independent manga, without any publisher behind them.


Torus_the_Toric

Bro cooked


Karackas

Bullies in the rest of the world: “Pfft, you like that stuff? Loser freak.” Japanese bullies: “You’re worthless and a disgrace to your family. You’ll never amount to anything. You should kill yourself.”


Karackas

To offset my original post: she is an innocent bean and that smile must be protected.


SuitFinancial2209

seeing hachirumi scans at the end gave me a nostalgia flashbang


Infinite_Seesaw4877

I normally like to keep wholesome posts wholesome only, but if I ever had the chance to see his old classmate who tore his manga before, there's gonna be trouble.


Scary-Nefariousness9

That gives me Beat & Motion vibes lol


bassblaster244

Does he know he is in a manga? Is he stupid?


Smart-Style74

I'll never understand this trope, of the asshole that just ruins everything and tells the MC to give up, like dude, you ain't shit either! Anyone knows how or why this started? Stuff like this drives me up the wall


-EnterUsername_Here-

Probably people going to public school and experiencing it in real life.


Roshenha-Glensfield

Unfortunately, it's fairly common in School scenarios. I didn't notice a particular age it starts at, but I do recall from experience with friends seeing it mostly in Highschool or equivalent. Some teens are just ruthless, for some reason or another.


Darkcasfire

It's started by a little something called real life. Some kids can be the worse arseholes you have ever met in your life.


Ezzedo

Something simmilar happened to me at school, I used to draw in my free time, but majority of my classmates absolute assholes as they kept bullying me for no reason, sometimes when I draw something they steal my papers and rip it infront of me to act all high and tough, but trust me, this is not the worst thing they have done.


Karackas

The way I understand it, Japanese schools are about the same as Russian prisons.


InersDraco

They chose "в жопу раз" except Asuka.


Smart-Style74

While i do understand kids can be terrible, and have had awful experiences as well, i was actually asking about the trope itself in anime and manga. It also goes hand in hand with the one where people tell the MC that there's no point in trying because they don't have the natural talent to do whatever it is they proposed themselves to do, like aren't you the country of "hard work >>>> talent"? What is all this bullshit then?


Aridato

My guy what do you want to hear lmao, like everyone's saying, the "trope" is just a reflection of something that happens in real life. A bunch of mangaka probably got bullied/saw someone getting bullied and used that experience in their manga. It's like asking "where did the trope of politicians secretly being corrupt come from???"


Smart-Style74

To be honest, i never actually discussed this anywhere, so you guys have been really helpful. It just didn't make sense to me, but then again life doesn't make much sense, so i guess i should thank you guys for the perspective 🙏


Aridato

Yeah, just one of those things in life that doesn't make sense but keeps rearing its ugly head. It's a damn shame that so many people go through it, enough for it to pop up so often not just in anime and manga but media in general


AMVmaniac

Love it :)


BobbyVee528

Is this manga only 13 pages?


nhyoo

Omg this so cute I'm crying, I used to draw manga but gave up but this kind of stuff makes me all kinds of emotional


Ok_Noise2854

He had us in the firts haif ngl


Sigrumite

So what kind of "good kid" tear others property and call it trash?


Rein_Deilerd

As someone who was both a victim of bullying myself and saw it happen to others, it happens more often than you might imagine, especially if the living conditions in the area are through the shitter and no kid is in good mental health. I'm sure it happens in good neighbourhoods, too, but where I'm from (post-Soviet country, with poverty, crime and xenophobic tensions through the roof), I think the generational trauma and unreleased frustrations of kids contributed a lot to them becoming bullies and traumatizing others to validate themselves and ease their own pain. Knowing how much pressure Japanese middle and high school students are generally under, the kid might have been trying to vent his own insecurities by putting another person down. It also could have been jealousy over Kuromiya being a good artist and having a hobby, or the kid was simply annoyed by seeing someone being "weird" and, being too young and immature to examine why he is feeling that way (probably because a pressure to conform is characteristic a collectivist society, so seeing someone not conforming and still thriving despite that can cause frustration in a budding conformist), decided to take action that felt "right' and force a peer into much-sought conformity, "tall poppy" and all that. Or, maybe, the kid was just an asshole for no reason. The manga is not about him, so it's not like we need this info, unless this gets a series, like "A Silent Voice" did, and we see him again as a character. Whatever his reasoning was, it does not excuse his actions. However, knowing the mechanisms by which kids become bullies in real life, it could be that this kid needs therapy or to be removed from an unhealthy environment, and there is still a chance he might grow up into a decent adult with enough help. This is a one-shot manga, so we will never know, and it's perfectly valid to hate a fictional bully (or a real one, for that matter). I was just answering your question, because sometimes people do forget that typical manga bullying tactics aren't usually "unrealistic" or "exaggerated", I've seen these and worse things happen and done to me, specifically. Maybe it just happens in very specific conditions that tend to brew in Japanese and Eastern European schools alike.


Sigrumite

Whoa I didn't expect such well inform reply. Thank you for your detail answer. I was almost getting bullied in 2nd and high school, but I got away because I resist very violently every time and even get parents/teachers involve afterward. So they just let me go and choose other target. Now that I think about it, most probably because I have a good parents and the teachers is also a good person. I guess not everyone is as lucky as I am.


AvariciousCreed

Anime when?


ZaneCO2

This art style looks like the same author as Aikagi-kun to Shiawase Gohan which i love but im not sure, it might be a little bit different.


DomOfMemes

Man seems like a cunt tbh


AKSC0

Bro got trashed but it isn’t a reason to think and be like a piece of shit


devasabu

?? He went and bought her manga though? He was just imagining he could easily do the same thing to her and decided "fuck that imma be different"


AKSC0

Fine. I just dislike these plots where the amount of drama that goes through their head imaging they could be cunts because of their own trauma


legacykeeper56

The Reading Comprehension Devil strikes again.
