Jitsu wa Watashi Wa Thread

I just finished reading this, two years too late. I really regret not having read it as it was being released-- I had no expectations going in and it completely surprised me, I think its my favorite romantic comedy manga.

Reading through the archives it looks the the anime was a steaming pile of shit, how badly does it screw things up?

Also, Dumpire is too cute!

Anime killed the artstyle, jumped around between the chapters haphazardly, and ruined the timing of the jokes. On the bright side because it never got popular from the anime the threads here didn't get flooded by cancerous retards and remained nice all the way through.

The author also had a new series since then but it got the axe just as it was finally finding its own feet and getting good.

>Shitty enough to drive away animeonlyfags
Well, that's an okay silver lining, I guess
Too bad about the author's other series, this one had a real charming balance between its comedic and serious bits
And finally, an MC who confesses and actually is shown to date his crush-- the fact that it all doesn't turn out to be some giant tease was a huge relief

I just wanted confirmation that Shima would fuck Wolf in both forms.

The mosquito NTR joke will never not be funny to me

Anime was too short and wasted too much time introducing everyone; what they should have done was only focus on introducing the two main characters and assumed that the viewer was already familiar with the story to advance it beyond what little it covered.

Jitsu wa Watashi wa is absolutely one of the best romcoms of the past decade.
It's been a while but it is hard to address why it was so great. Perhaps it was the great humor, catered by the unique art style? The likable cast of characters where even the side characters got complete character arcs? The way the mangaka felt that beating around the bush any longer of the main pair getting together was dumb and just had them start dating 1/3rd the way through the manga and then kept going?
I don't know, it was all so great.

It really did seem like he was leaning more to Shirou by the end

Shima not getting a full arc with development is one of the true tragedies for the manga, since it hurts not only him but poor slutwolf too.
She deserved better.

The dumb demon was the best

The ending for the cake made me rate this manga a 10/10

I'm not sure what was the better joke. Yuki-onna not being an idiot or Dumpire being so dumb in counters her intelligence.

Alium is the first time I almost like the rival as much as the main heroine

>Also, Dumpire is too cute!

thats lewd as fuck

I think Alium fell into the trap many second heroines have, where since the mangaka knows she isn't going to win and doesn't favor her as much as the main girl he spends more time early on developing and building the 2nd girl since her arc must come before the main one wins. Add in the fact that the main girl is already the mangaka's favorite so he doesn't feel the need to show it in as much detail.
Jitsu wa is able to make up some lost ground though since the mangaka had the main girl win less than half the way through and then was able to keep the manga going and building after that as well. Dumpire was always great, absolutely great, but she wasn't quite as developed as a character leading up to her win.

Best joke was that the super pervert in the future was an extension of the gag where dumpire turns into an actual cool beauty when she's sad and got so depressed for so long that her vampire charm powers accidentally the whole world.

Okada was best boy

The fact the main relationship was confirmed so early allowed the mangaka to continue to build everyone up beyond that point-- everyone sort of had a place to grow into after. It gave the whole thing a really feel-good outlook by the end. I forgot that it was basically a harem manga

>actual cool beauty when she's sad
I forgot that was a thing by the time the charismatic pervert reveal happened.

shitty artsttyle and garbage low tier kindergarden humor

Speaking of Alium's development, we often got to see her internal thoughts, emotions and dialogue. It was much easier to feel for her compared to the other girls since we got to see things from her perspective, while we didn't get that as often for dumpire. We get to see Eromine thoughts about dumpire but we get to see Alium's thoughts for ourselves.

Pretty amazing manga. I usually hate haremshit, but this manga realized that haremshit blows too and basically cut that out halfway through. I liked that the MC (Asahi? It's been too long since I read it) actually had male friends and that they got their own arc. A lesser manga would have just had the girls alone and would have spun its wheels like 90% of harem romcoms do.

It's one of the few genuinely funny manga I've read. I think its only big flaw really is not giving slutwolf/Shimada an arc of their own.

It didnt even seem like a harem to me, it was more like a Sol with cute and silly but dumb characters hanging out. Each character had a personality besides "I love MC", the fact the MC's friends all had their own characterization and arcs really goes to show how different this series is from other "harems"

Some anons with superior taste were urging newfags to read it in a
Komi-san thread a few days ago, and decided to go for it.
Much like when Cross Ange was airing, I saw thread about JWWW but for some reason I wasn't interested at the time, but now that I've gotten around to it, I really wish I had been there along for the ride.

>secondary cast got to be developed, have their own dynamics, and not revolve around the MC
>most girls got to move past the MC themselves and find their own relationships
>comedy is fun
>actual conflict that the story can link back too (human X monser relations and future plotliine)
>great comedy
>actual fucking progress with lasting consequences
>The cake finally got the man, white horse and everything
Just to name a few. Romcoms tend to fall into endless stagnation as the status quo and the writers don't want to have a relationship move past hand holding since for some reason people think a relationship story stops once the couple gets together unless the story already started with them together.

Has he got any sight of a new series yet?
after Hachi burned out I wasn't sure he'd continue at least in a shounen.

When I first saw that, it legitimately spooked me. When I saw alium making that face again near end of the manga, it gave me a god chuckle. I really hope the mangaka makes a comeback somepoint in the future, their artsyle is kino

How bad? First of all, some of the voices didn't fit the characters (I'm looking at Shiho, the teacher and Yoko's parents), some characters were there and it didn't make sense, others weren't there and yet they covered chapters where they were supposed to be, the ending was completely original in that it had the idea of what that manga chapter did but made it more "dramatic" and the designs didn't have the "heart" of the manga, it looked generic. Also completely forgettable soundtrack.

Thanks for this thread anons.

Well having a few more epilogue related chapters, it was better to end it then have it drag on forever
We got to see the baby in a flash forward, so there's that, a Youko and Asahi were drawn in a few imaginary wedding scene, but it wrapped things up concisely, on a happy note.
Also the anime completely bombed, and that wasn't helping the series get anymore popularity with its publisher

I think if he'd chosen a different premise for his new manga with the same characters, it would have performed a lot better. Manga about manga get tiresome really fast. When you've read one you've read them all.

More than the comedy, the girls, or the premise, what makes Jitsu wa so amazing is how tight all the plot threads are. Even throwaway jokes become really rich given the reveals at the end.

Ultimate dream user. Honestly throughout the manga I was hoping for a Zetsubou-Sensei ending - where all girls gets to have MC (mainly for Dumpvire and Ayy Lmao)

I'm glad Dumpire won-- not just because it avoided a harem ending, but also because we got a lot of good and cute "in a relationship" development from the main couple.
Ayy had her chance and missed it, and we got a pretty good story line for her getting over her feelings of missing Asahi's affections

The bat who was comfy in imouto's head was too cute

Born to lose.
Just like the gyaru from Komi-san.

Attached: Alium HD suffering.png (984x931, 1.31M)

>Ayy had her chance and missed it
Not really. You can't really count something from before the story even started against someone. The truth is that she never had a chance, both in story since Dumpire likes Eromine and Eromine liked Dumpire and Alium knew it or in a meta sense since it was obvious from the beginning what the final pair would be to the extent that the mangaka thought it was dumb to drag it out any longer a third of the way in.
In a story sense there was one point where she did have a chance, provided she took advantage of the misunderstanding and tried to push dumpire and eromine apart when Dumpire thought they were a couple and gave up. That was an actual in story opportunity for Alium to win (although not in the meta sense because it wouldn't happen). Instead she lets herself be publicly rejected by Eromine in front of dumpire to fix the error and let the two people she loved most find happiness.
Alium was best girl and if she had won she would have needed to not be best girl to do it.

Attached: Alium it's okay.png (636x315, 233K)

It's tragic. Everything you say is true, there is no way she would win. Of course it was clearly obvious. But nevertheless I would pay extra attention the moment she and MC had, and those are the pages I love to reread the most. I do honestly believe she deserved MC, but it was not her story. If only there was a canon alternative version where she won - that is all I want now.

Attached: jitsu-wa-watashi-wa-5041705.jpg (1200x931, 194K)

Well, you weren't alone because Alium came in first for the popularity contest, even beating dumpire and dumon. The author of All You Need Is Kill also chimed in that she was his favorite, which led to Tom Cruises twitter automatically retweeting about it since he was in the All You Need Is Kill (Edge of Tomorrow, Live Die Repeat, etc) movie at the time.

Attached: Alium Dumon Dumpire 123.jpg (713x1049, 489K)

Yeah, you could tell the author planned most of the arcs very far ahead of time. The best friend's esper arc fit in perfectly with his actions in the past despite his nature only being revealed 200 chapters in.

Like I said here
I think the mangaka accidentally ended up developing alium more than dumpire since dumpire would need to wait until the end and he already liked dumpire the most anyway.
Thank goodness the manga didn't end right after Dumpire won. It still would have been a fun manga for what it was but it would have been much less special and the ending would have been rather miserable and would feel unearned for dumpire, I think.

Attached: Street lights.png (768x1024, 558K)

Interesting information. It is quite common for people to prefer / favor the alternative love interests innit? But still, it feels so harsh when it is all left in the hands of the original creator to decide what is and what isn't. Of course if someone else would create anything it would not nearly feel as real, but still.

She at least got a lot of space devoted to her throughout the story-- for something like Gal Gohan or Komi-san, the secondary heroines get REALLY shafted out of pages, especially because the main heroines are the titular characters, and thus the main draw.
Because JWWW managed to widen its focus and themes surronding everyone's secrets, I feel like it worked out much better than it does in most romcom mangas

At least Dumpire was an amazing top tier girl too and the manga made it obvious she was going to win from the very beginning and actually had it happen early. I don't think anyone thought even for a moment that dumpire wouldn't win

And then it goes full tragedy, like what the fuck, man. Helck is a good boy and didn't deserve that shit.

*Individual perceptions may vary

Y-yeah, that's it.

Attached: sad alium figure.jpg (886x914, 349K)

Yeah, its not too often for me that I've personally felt that the main and secondary girls were as great-- even though dumpire winning was a closed case, I didn't really feel angry that it was narrative-locked in that way because she's a pretty fun character. People will probably go on for decades about Crab being the canon GF in Monogatari because all of the other girls are so great and get a lot more development, but at least the levels of character development (and endearing cuteness) are more equal in JWWW

That's true, we should be thankful for what we have, instead of wishing for what we don't - but man is greedy, and want is the strongest desire.

She is really phenomenal, I enjoy her and MC greatly, but nevertheless I wish for the alternative. I had a similar reaction back when I watched Haruhi for the first time - and then I found the spin-off, and even tho it wasn't that great; for the time, it sustained what I wanted.

I suppose so hehe. To be honest I have never seen the point in people claiming character in romance manga as their waifus. Why would you want to inject yourself into a story like such and place yourself together with your favorite girl? It feels rather selfish, and disrespecting of the story. Not to judge others of course.

>Smol demon in third
This is right and good.

That was perfect payoff. I love the gloomy dude who can read people's hearts character.

The whole appeal of harem-ish romcoms is a girl for every taste. Sometimes the audience's tastes click more with a side girl than the main: the ayy, Megumin, Yuki Nagato and all the way back to Lum and Shinobu (who was Ataru's gf and planNed main girl). You never know what the audience will go for.

That's true, it is all about subjective taste. Which then only makes it harder on the soul since all the truth is left to the hands of a single creator, with their single subjective taste.

Even if the author grows to like another character more, they still stuck to the narrative arc that they set up.
I recall reading that Ayy grew on the mangaka in one of the translated interviews, I think

BEAUTY

Well, that only increases my respect for them in that case, with such stoicism. They followed through with what they initially set up. I cannot honestly say that I am unhappy, for I am not.

Well Orange was clearly the 2nd girl originally as the bitchy tsundere rival, but she was awful and ended up being largely revamped due to it so Alium ended up as 2nd girl instead due to getting along with both the lead and the main girl.

I love that the author stays consistent with who knows what. It genuinely caught me off guard when wolf, alium, and Mikan all found out each other's secrets so late in. And then you just get the complications of characters who don't know which characters know the secrets, so they're constantly covering for each other.

I give it a try today

I particular like how the moments held a sense of urgency-- it was a good reminder that all of these secrets are still under wraps. The tone change when Mikan finds out that Youko isn't in any of her birthday photographs hits like a pile of bricks, in a good way.

I always liked how the background characters have a completely normal generic manga appearance compared to the unique style he uses for the mains
