1) I wonder whether I should be creeped out by the fact that so many people are fascinated with Hagu. I love Hagu and think she's super interesting and all that, but Morita and Takemoto basically fell in love with her at first sight because she was ... small? I think? Which is a bit disturbing.

2) Mayama is more likeable in the manga, I think. Or maybe I am just trying harder to see what Aya sees in him. I don't think I'll ever be fond of him; he is such a jerk.

in which...we find out more about mayama's love for his employer. takemoto visits home. morita fails to graduate again. professor hanamoto leaves hagumi behind when he goes on a research trip. and i keep mixing yamada and mayama's names up. and things continue to be silly.

yeah, I still don't get the fuss over this series

call me if there's more rika-harada-hanamoto flashbacks though, i'm always into intense friendship triads

The second volume was just as good as the first, with a lot more character development.

Mayama and the weepy girl who loves him both give me the heebie-geebies!
Oh lass he doesn't want you!
And he's not that much of a catch either!
Please find someone better!
There! I fixed it, hehe!

Everyone else though? Oh their stories are wonderful!
I really am utterly into this whole series!
How, just how does Umino manage to mix drama & comedy so well together like this?
I can't wait to finish it!
And yet I don't want to, I want it to go on forever!!!
