Why I \u201cDropped\u201d Tonikaku Kawaii<\/em> (Fly Me to the Moon<\/em>)<\/strong>
\u30c8\u30cb\u30ab\u30af\u30ab\u30ef\u30a4\u30a4<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Hey gang. Recently, someone messaged me to ask why I no longer review the Tonikaku Kawaii<\/strong><\/em> manga. It is true that I used to chapter review the series. Indeed, I still do follow the manga series, so I haven\u2019t \u201cdropped\u201d it in the sense that I stopped reading it. However, I did drop it from titles reviewed. Here\u2019s why.<\/p>\n

The Official Translation Sucks!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The biggest reason I stopped reviewing Tonikaku Kawaii<\/strong><\/em> is that the official translation sucks. It is full of errors at best, and rewrites at worst. I\u2019m not going to bother recounting what the manga actually said vs. what the official English version made it say. Regardless, a similar problem happened with Hayate the Combat Butler, to the point where I stopped buying Viz\u2019s product and simply purchased the entire Japanese tankoubon run.<\/p>\n

Indeed, I\u2019m doing that for Tonikaku Kawaii<\/strong><\/em> as well. I usually bulk-order from Japan to save on shipping costs. But in this way, I can support Hata-sensei, but not support Viz\u2026well, at least not much. I still read the manga out of curiosity, but I just checked and a new chapter hasn\u2019t dropped in ages. I hadn\u2019t even realized this was the case. Apparently, it is on hiatus. \ud83d\ude05<\/p>\n

The Manga is Adrift<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Another reason I stopped reviewing Tonikaku Kawaii<\/strong><\/em> is that the manga series is adrift. Hayate the Combat Butler<\/strong><\/em> suffered from this at times. That\u2019s because Hata-sensei kinda meanders around doing fluff stuff, then occasionally touches the plot. I get that pushing the main plot forward much more could end the series. But Hata-sensei hasn\u2019t touched that in ages.<\/p>\n

Right now, the series has several dangling plot threads, none of which are getting touched. While I don\u2019t mind seeing little romantic stuff between Tsukasa and Nasa, it is kinda annoying that they don\u2019t fully act like a married couple. I don\u2019t mean showing their marital private moments. But at the very least, it shouldn\u2019t be a question as to whether or not they\u2019ve consummated their marriage.<\/p>\n

\"Tonikaku<\/a><\/p>\n

Also, some of the fluff stuff of late is just boring. Right now, the series is focused on one supporting character (who\u2019s name I can\u2019t even remember without looking it up) crushing on Kaguya. It is boring and tedious and frankly, I don\u2019t care. But we get a lot of time dealing with that. Instead, I\u2019d rather Tsukasa open up to Nasa about these places they are visiting, then tell him how it was back in the day by showing the readers. Alas, that\u2019s not happening.<\/p>\n

There You Have It<\/strong><\/h4>\n

So there you have it. Assuming it comes back from hiatus, I\u2019ll probably still read the official Tonikaku Kawaii <\/strong><\/em>(and cringe). But I don\u2019t plan to return to chapter blogging it. But if the series officially ends, I would do a series review.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
