K. said...: This is terrifying. I get the feeling I'm supposed to feel pity for the main character, but in each comic he seems to desire any girl who is near him, and then feel sorry for himself when he doesn't approach any of them. The character comes across as completely shallow, and the level of self-pity demonstrated reassures me that no more is needed from me.
This character inspires loathing, but not even an active loathing, a "love-to-hate" kind of thing that would keep me read. No, instead is just a passive loathing and a slight depression that there are really boys out there like this.
...Is this the point of the comic?

The art is good, and wasted on a "story" like this. Story is in quotes because, typically, stories have characters. And this does not.; 11:37 PM
