yeah i'm... honestly a little confused about who this show is supposed to be for and how i feel about the premise kinda depends on that. from the way everything's depicted, I honestly figured this was a shojo series and the audience was supposed to have more in common with Akira than with Kondo; it really seems like the series is more horny for him than it is for her. that would have been basically fine? like, a little offputting, but Not Horrible. but then, the manga is apparently published in a seinen magazine that also runs Inio Asano's newest work and the anime's on noitaminA, which tells me it's actually being targeted at middle-aged men who fantasize about banging high schoolers, because... I kinda get the vibe the teen-girl audience for artsy seinen manga and late-night anime is not huge i don't know how i feel about this and i'm probably just not going to touch it with a 50-foot pole until people who are smarter than me hash this out.

Maybe take the show as it is and not worry so much about the magazine and tv channel demographics.

I kinda get the vibe the teen-girl audience for artsy seinen manga and late-night anime is not huge Admittedly, the magazine this series runs in is fairly male-focused even today, but that doesn't necessarily mean this series is laser-targeted at adult men or anything. And even among series that do seem much more laser-focused at men, like Vinland Saga (which also runs in the same magazine as Houseki, coincidentally), they can attract fairly large female fanbases for a variety of reasons. And of the series currently running in the same magazine as this series, there's Asahinagu, a series about a girl's naginata club that has a stage play and a live action film. Those things are very common for things popular with women or that they see as having a big appeal with women, but are much less common for things that appeal to men. A ton of josei manga get them, not to mention shonen manga that are popular with women, like prince of tennis or fullmetal alchemist. I skimmed a couple of chapters just now, and I didn't see anything about it that'd turn women off. So it's safe to say there's at least one other series in the same magazine with a fairly female lean in terms of demographic.

Koi is written by a lady and is the kind of romance series thats probably meant to boost the demographic reach of the seinen mag it runs in. Its for people who like life and love and isn't something laser targeted by gender or age group. Also there's new chapters after months of nothing weee. http://reader.roseliascans.com/read/koi_wa_ameagari_no_you_ni/en/7/49/page/1 And new chars.

Noitamina hasn't really been like this for years, but it used to air tons of shows aimed at women like Princess Jellyfish and Nodame Cantabile. This isn't a typical otaku show lol

Oh  2 chapters seems sudden. I'm not up-to-date with it yet, is it in the middle of a conclusion already?
