TehRealOne Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 The others work hard too... though not as hard as Marika. I mean, that's some dedication man. Training to be a wife for Raku? Then you'll just get busted? Raku a gay. Raku and Shuu *Kokoro doki doki* Fan Girls: Kyaaa!!! Quote
Nosebleed Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 Yes, Marika deserves the most praise in this entire series and she's the character I most love and respect because of it. I absolutely hate when other characters brush her off as creepy/annoying when she tries so hard and is really cute too One time I liked Raku was when he aknowledged Marika's chocolate statue for him, that was nice (even if he was initially creeped out) But people really need to pay more attention to her!

Nosebleed Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 I understand that side, but if everyone in the series paid more attention to her she wouldn't have to try so hard Though, to be honest, what I like about her is how she tries hard to show her love instead of playing hard to get. But when Marika is actually confronted by Raku, her deredere side comes out. There is no way a sane human being can resist bashful Marika. Just the thought of rewarding her hard effort with attention and her reverting to deredere mode. My heart.. can't handle.. TehRealOne and brawlbankai 2 Quote

Sadly I cant give it the proper attention it deserves. But yeah, I forgot that Marika does go deredere(That only happened once so I forgot) But Marika getting the attention she wants and going deredere, Hmm I'm actually very interested. Sir you might have just made me switch from Tsumugi + Kosaki to Tsumugi + Marika. Quote
brawlbankai Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 You know, before I came to this thread, I didn't really care for Marika that much. Yes, she's cute(all of them are), but I often found her attitude too overbearing for my tastes. Now though, she's quickly elevated to becoming one off my favorites. I blame thank Nosebleed. Fuu-chan Haru is still best girls though. Quote

Nosebleed Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 It's never too late to look back on a character and appreciate it more than you did initially. I'm just glad that some people can come to terms with Marika and appreciate her a little more. To me, she'll always recieve my love and adoration<3 I'm not god, Fuu-chan is god Quote

brawlbankai Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Fuu-chan is the best playmaker. Too bad Haru x Raku will never come true. A man can dream! On that note, the only way I can see this ending is either Chitoge or Kosaki winning. I'll be super pissed if this end with Raku not choosing anyone. I loathe those open endings more than anything.

brawlbankai Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Considering Shounen Jump's records, you might be in for disappointment (inb4 To Love-Ru). Though this is just a generalization of the love comedy genre and not a Jump specific issue. The original Nisekoi one-shot was about Raku and Chitoge, Onodera didn't exist in that original story, leading most people to speculate they'll definitely end up together. They actually sort of kiss in it. But it wouldn't be the first time where a romantic comedy has ended with the protagonist not choosing anyone and just going on with his life (in fact, this happens more often than the opposite). The future looks grim, but we can have some hope, just not too much hope. Quote
TehRealOne Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Yeah, I'm well aware of Jump's, or rather manga's history regarding its romcom series, so I never expect too much. Also, 9 times out of 10, my favorite character usually loses in the end. I've also read the Nisekoi one-shot, that's what got me to read the series in the first place. It's been a while, so I don't really remember it too much though. I learned early on not to put too much hope in romcoms, much less so in harem series. So any ending wouldn't really surprise or disappoint me. Thats why we play Vns, because there is for sure a chance that our favourite characters will get together. Yeah, endings that have the MC chosing no none are just... Considering Shounen Jump's records, you might be in for disappointment (inb4 To Love-Ru).

TehRealOne Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 What is this VN you speak of!? It sounds magical~ Sorry, couldn't resist. P.S. Probably not a good idea to post on a forum at 3 in the morning, but whatever. Seriously though, half of the VN's I play (totally not exaggerating at all ) don't even have my favorite character as a heroine at all. Now, before we derail this any further... The manga gets axed Any thoughts on the reason why they don't have to pretend anymore? Quote
Chewy Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Pretend? Anyway, you play VNs but don't have a favourite character? The only way I would see myself not having a favourite character would be if it was purely an eroge like a really nukige VN with minimum focus on characters and letting them stay flat + static. Quote
Nosebleed Posted February 3, 2015 Author Posted February 3, 2015 There seems to be plot development in the last couple chapters, or at the very least we seem to be entering a big arc that will lead to character development. I can't confirm this 100% without the next chapter though. It's something. Quote

Nosebleed Posted February 3, 2015 Author Posted February 3, 2015 It could happen, it could just be a single chapter thing, but i'm staying a bit hopeful . Quote
TehRealOne Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 That reminds me... Nisekoi has quite a nice amount of filler chapters in it... But yeah, this School Trip thing could become a big arc. Quote
Nosebleed Posted February 3, 2015 Author Posted February 3, 2015 Did it take you 150 chapters to realise Nisekoi is 80% filler? Quote
Kosakyun Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Heh. Whenever locket-chan ain't around, it's filler. And why do you guys have a number of likes for the day? Wat. Also, I love Marika and how she strives to get Raku's love. It's just that the mangaka's too cruel. Not making Raku acknowledge her efforts... How sad! Quote

Nosebleed Posted February 3, 2015 Author Posted February 3, 2015 There's a 10 like cap per day for every user. I'm really interested in seeing more Marika development, particularly what's up with her health (though that kind of worries me too). Quote
