Kaguya-sama is finished and now I can eternally scream about two fictional characters being socially awkward.

  3. Great video! A lot of what you bring up is 100% true even if I 100% disagree with you. I think something that makes Kaguya’s first half so good to me is the fact that I never felt like the actual content got stale. Like sure there was slow romantic progression but each new chapter brought in funny gags, engaging drama, or character development which made it feel like something was always happening. I myself much prefer fast paced romance series because I much prefer seeing the actual relationship rather than the buildup to the confession. Kaguya was the exception due to just how relatable all the characters were and how much I grew to really like them. It helps I’m the same age as the characters as well, talking about stuff at school with my friends and then reading the new chapter to see similar types of interactions between the cast got me a lot more invested than I otherwise would’ve been. The characters just felt so authentic in their experiences and mannerisms despite all of them being ridiculously over the top which made me get personally invested incredibly quickly. Anyway those are my thoughts, really enjoyed your video and looking forward to your next!

  5. I have a love and hate relationship with this manga. I have at several points picked up and dropped the manga due to frustration with the story and chapter structure. Then several months later I'll be bored and think "Man, what is Kaguya-sama up to right now?" I skim the latest chapters. See it's interesting. Then pick it back up again. In particular I dropped the manga permanently was when Kaguya had that whole personality disorder arc, which pissed me off so much since it felt like the plot took 2 steps back. Then from there I occasionally go through some chapters just to stay up to date, but I didn't really follow the manga chapter to chapter anymore. I think the manga is a good 8/10 story.

  6. shirogane is my favourite romcom mc , i love the series but after 160 it had no goal to reach . it was like another cliche romcom , still good but peak was first half . also ishigami's love life got boring .

  7. shirogane , kaguya and ishigami are really well developed and written characters . But after tsubame stuff ishigami kinda lost his humour and become more serious . he is great as supporting character , but his love triangle kinda went too long and got boring .
