god I literally have never seen a sports genre that's as cute as this, I need more

I've skipped this a couple of times because I thought the person on the cover was a guy. Little did I know that it's actually the main heroine.
I accidentally discovered this when I browsed thru /e/ and I ended up not fapping just because how cute this is. It's like Eyeshield 21 if it was more focused on romance
It bothers me just how little developement the two characters have, maybe now that their secret is out they'll finally be able to be a bit more daring.
they're a bunch of dorks, what do you expect? it's very endearing though
i'm glad shilling this got this picked up
keep doing that user, it's a very noble cause.
All sports manga are the same
Read one and you have read the all
never seen one with this blatant romance going on around it
They develop fine. They've kissu'd twice already while it takes most romance series twice as long to get to a confession and hand holding and inbetween you have to deal with forced drama, filler love triangles and the occasional empty threat of NTR.
Also the fact it has a really strong supporting cast helps. The only characters I don't like are Bitch Cop and her sister but even then the sister isn't actually any kind of romantic threat despite her stated aim. But Milky, Thot-chan, Saotome's friends and best bro Senpais are great.
the secret is out!!!!
it was good that the confession happened at the start because the will they or won't they gets annoying and it's what tomo chan is a girl suffers of to much even when both characters have confessed their feelings they are not officially dating
man wish 3D female boxers look remotely like this
>they've kissed twice already
>in 107 chapters
2D > 3D
though there are some girls who are tomboys who look like saotome
you cant just say that without providing proofs
here
another personal favourite of mine is amber- liu
a k pop tomboy
seeing a saotome thread right on the top makes me feel comfy
i love you all
have you read the latest chapter yet?
you need to read it
i saw it literally on the hour it dropped
reread it several times already
i need more but there is nothing that even comes close to the quality of saotome
i pray for an anime in 1-2 years
Keita carries this manga
They'll make one for the 2020 Olympics
i was shook i'm scared i don't want anything bad to happen to them, i just want them to be free to express their love.
i want an anime also that feels like a combination of meglobox and ouran high school host club.
i want the fights to be animated super well and then for the romance stuff to be super comfy
Milky is also very cute
based, between her and saotome i would have a hard time picking one
>no demon maid saotome
i doubt saotome would blame satoru
i'm pretty sure next chapter will be comfy and fluffy
satoru is a chad who's there for saotome when she needs him
and i wouldn't have it any other way
nevermind i'm blind and didn't spot it upon first viewing
my bad
would this manga still work if it was a yaoi like yuri on ice?
no.
a lot of the appeal comes from saotome being a tomboy
no because saotome being a girl is integral to the story
well can't argue with that.
I've been looking for some muscle tomboy stuff that isn't a hentai, this one hits all the right buttons and I'm real grateful for it
i'm hoping for that comfy fluffy stuff as well i wounder how they are going to confront the rest of the school if at all
or if saotome is going to tell everyone it was a misunderstanding as they didn't really catch her giving the kiss just what looked like her giving someone a kiss
For me it's (superior) Milky!
same it's definitely one of my favourite romance manga of all time i can see myself returning back to it a lot in the future. it's rare to get romance manga around tomboys or muscle girls be this good so early on with a early confession so we can just focus on all the wholesome stuff about their relationship.
that seems real soon, i don't know if saotome is popular enough yet to call for an anime of above decent quality
isn't only 2% of all manga that get adapted into anime?
milky is also good i wounder if she will also get a bf in the future
Is she eventually going to control the testosterone levels of her beloved to increase his training efficiency?
Trying to sabotage her boxing career
saotome is proof that's not the case.
it won't effect her career if milky gos for some boy milk
Time to become a boxer and figure out how to go into a manga
hold up a sec, Saotome's only like 160cm high right?
Satoru must be one hell of a manlet
if you figure out how take me with you
This is a really stupid manga, which I read as soon as I can.
Her boyfriend a cute! A CUTE!
I wish there are more boys like him in manga/anime. boys so wholesome they'd fill your heart with feels and joy
he's basically Sena Kobayakawa but he can actually fight and get some real action
What is wrong with being stupid?
But seriously, what's with the bandage on his nose?
we did it lads
Have you read Teppu user? Lots of big girls there too.
it's just for trope reasons, it's supposed to be an indication design wise that he is tough or associated with sports or rough activities
did you miss part where he's shown to have a huge scar across his nose
say it with me boys
ANIME
IN
2020
OP here, I'm glad that this thread took off. thought it was gonna drown with literally 0 replies. unironically would go gay for all of you fags
It seems to have a backstory actually related to his life in Kyoto and the elder Hanami.
I really hoped he'd actually fuck the nurse. But I knew that wouldn't happen. But the latest chapter's """"science"""" of "nofap makes you irrestible to women" is so stupid even for me.
It's been around a year since I found this manga, it was a vanilla romance thread with a ton of great recommendations. This manga wasn't only one of my favourites, it also awoke a muscle fetish in me.
>a beta mc cheering for his waifu
same but i discovered it through a tomboy thread and it was love at first volume
>beta
he is in the boxing club that's pretty chad, he is just shy is all
if this never happens, the anime industry is trash and will continue to make isakai after isakai but won't adapt something this wholesome.
That's because isekai is actually interesting. She just looks manlier than her boyfriend.
oh boy i can't wait for pedo bait no.NAN
isekai is not the problem, is the gay fodder shit every single season
weebs with poor taste eat up isekai, what else is new
>isekai suck
but dude you don't understand!
this time it's a
*spist wheel*
racoon and
*throws dart*
stuck in a video game but
*opens fortune cookie*
it's all a dream!
once you have seen on they are all the same power fantasy the only good one i have seen is konosuba which focuses more on comedy than being a power fantasy.
even reincarnated as a slime just turns out to be another power fantasy.
what are you talking about she often goes out of her way to be feminine for her boyfriend through out the manga
hehehe this is literally how modern isekai are picked.
they think they are being all subversive but in actuality they are just writing the same story that everyone else is
aaaand now I have to wait for another month for the next chapter.
fuck, how do you guys put up with this? just read something else in the meantime? I always end up ditching the manga because I always forget about it in a few days after reading the whole thing in one sitting
I bless my bad memory at times like this.
i have a few manga a i dip in and out of right now i'm reading fight class 3 also a long side saotome. it's best to catch up to a few and then you have more than one to look forward to when new chapters come out
How about having a working brain? That seems to work.
do you think we'll get a real H scene someday?
I don't think I can manage seeing that
if not i will make my own doujin of it
nah, we;ve got a bunch of muscle girl doujins already.
but my problem is that when things are real wholesome like this then it's gonna be dialed up to 11 with a vanilla sex scene and I'm gonna be a fucking emotional wreck
if we ever do get a ecchi sex scene i'm going to cry so hard also
she's dating wakana
i forget who is wakana?
sisters friend
no.
this can't be milky can't be in a yuri.
say it ain't so!
why do you think the author keeps having them show up together?
i thought they were just close friends now, like training buddies or rivals.
and here i was hoping saotome senshu was going to become the straightest muscle girl manga to ever exist
>Just in time for the Olympics
I hope so
she would have then made it to the olympics and the mangaka can end the series
I swear if it ends with them going on their separate ways I'm gonna accept that, they probably have to come to terms with something and it's probably gonna be sad as hell but I'll accept it nonetheless
They'll live happily forever after. This manga doesn't need that kind of drama
if this happens i will loose all faith in the mangaka i just want a nice wholesome ride
>This manga doesn't need that kind of drama
how much do you wanna bet the next chapter's gonna be them "taking a break"?
>Satoru suggests taking not seeing eachother for a month or two after being hospitalized for multiple pelvic fractures after the doctor tells him he probably won't survive another set of fractures like this
Ah I fucked up the spoilers. Whatever.
gonna be one helluva wholesome snu snu right there
Won't happen with the no bullshit romance they've been having so far
>That's because isekai is actually interesting
Are you kidding me here?
But why? He has already decided to be her cornerman, to stay with her forever. Them separating would be so goddamn retarded.
this
isn't it more of an alternative just in case he doesn't make it as a boxer?
he is not as bad of a boxer as he thinks he is
More like something he has already confirmed
is there anything similar to this, like a combo of slice of life, romance, and sports drama?
not that i know about, i think people who are fans of saotome also typically read tomo-chan is a girl. but that's less sports and more tomboy romance comedy with a lot of will they won't they thrown in and is completely different in tone.
does anyone know where i can buy physical copies of the manga?
Japan.
The chapters are like 10 pages each, so that's way less than most romance mango.
i don't live in japan i want to get my hands on the physical copies before they go out of print
I've been reading All Rounder Meguru, the romance is pretty low though.
There's All Rounder Meguru and the series is even finished, but the translations died a long time ago and the ending is kind of abrupt like the series was axed. But in general it focuses heavily on MMA and later on the romance between the MC and pic related.
she a qt
I'm sure the translation will come back alive eventually
It helps that they're in a relationship from the beginning and their feelings for each other are already known. They kiss and hang out and have fights (with other people) so it's not like they aren't acting like a teenage boxing couple.
She seriously should.
>beta
>confessed to his crush at the start of the series
>boxes and trains with her and wants to get better alongside her
He's low-key an alpha.
That's actually a very strong point and it avoids retarded harem shenanigans despite multiple female characters having been introduced. The college chick is the closest thing Saotome has to a romantic rival and it's clear she doesn't see Satoru as a man.
>romance sports manga
>where the conflict isn't in the romance but the sports part
>the romance is just cute and funny
Is there at least NTR in this? I hope the payoff is worth it. I'm reading it right now and it's pretty shit so far.
that's what makes this series based, though it would be nice if milky got her own boyfriend by the end
I'm sorry user it's just wholesome romance between two cute people that genuinely love each other.
But mangaka are pretty notorious for suddenly ruining their stories.
there is no ntr, and i have no idea how you could think it's shit
Favorite chapter? Mine's the one where she's being recorded and being interviewed and she says her dream is to be a wife and then she chases the camera crew Terminator 2 style.
that part also wrecked me as she said it with such sincerity
>The college chick is the closest thing Saotome has to a romantic rival and it's clear she doesn't see Satoru as a man.
Technically, both are wrong, the rival is the new kouhai, and based on the college girl's words, it was Satoru who never saw her as a woman but as an older sister.
Saotome confessed to him.
These are monkeys or men.
They look nothing like Saotome.
Hey, there's no need to be rude.
nothing is ever going to 100% look like saotome unless you print out a cardboard copy her.
but i don't know what you are talking about monkeys and men this is what real life tomboys look like that are close to looking like anime tomboys, one of them is even cosplaying tatsuki from bleach.
>but i don't know what you are talking about monkeys and men this is what real life tomboys look like that are close to looking like anime tomboys
hard pill to swallow, but you're right
Tomboys don't look like anything, since it's a personality trait. Cutting their hair short and getting a tattoo won't make a 3DPD a tomboy.
This thread is lacking best popo.
hate her guts already along with her sister
That's a big fucking bitch
i hope her sister steals Satoru away.
imagine the smelle
true tomboy is a personality type more than looks, but there certain indications and flags associated with the personality type even if it's not always the case e.g hair, fashion, activities that are associated with the personality type.
also amber liu is a tomboy she even does skateboarding and other outdoors type activities and goes to the gym as well as singing k pop songs and she even knows how to rap. her wiki even states she is a tomboy and she even has stated herself she identifies as one.
She's obviously trying to make herself look like a tomboy, but that's all for show. Her personality is just as manufactured as your average anime girl's. She doesn't look like a tomboy, she looks like someone putting a lot of effort into appearing tomboyish.
you do know she has a youtube channel were she just does casual vlogs and she still looks pretty tomboyish? she really isn't manufactured she looks like that tomboyish even in casual situations most of the time.
to be honest she would have probably had more success if she was manufactured like a lot of k pop idols and just pretended to be girly on stage. but i like her the way she is boyish and all.
also there have even been moments were she has dressed feminine, this is her in this comedy sketch were she does so and it's about her boyfriend being insecure because she is better than him at a lot of manly stuff: youtube.com
>you do know
I don't know, and I don't care. It's all fake and you're gulping it up like a young pelican.
Now stop it with the 3D talk.
It pains me to no end that the translation for this series is pretty much dead
okay if you want to think it's fake you are allow to have your opinion.
though i know it's not. as i have already proven my point to that tomboys like saotome exist in real life so there is nothing to discuss further.
so let's both stop talking about 3d from here on out and just talk about the manga and 2d.
when she went shopping with her lil bro, that was too wholesome
Are there already doujinshis out there where she NTR's the manlet with taller and better looking Chads?
there's a bunch of muscle girl doujins that look like her already, there's really no need to ruin this character.
and besides this manga ain't exactly popular
I'll tell you after you kill yourself
>all those garbage alien faces
>cute
Am I in bizarro Yea Forums or something? How the fuck can you possibly look at that weird uncanny down synfrome face.
Aftermath kissing chapter just because of the smug smile the guy had the whole time afterwards.
Just look at the abs.
*Syndrome face
And think it's fine?
it's okay to be gay but you don't get to talk shit about beautiful women
this,
it's a pure and wholesome manga with a decent following enough to get it trending but it's not main stream. and if there were doujins i would want them to be passionate soft lovers sex, instead of ntr which would ruin the character as she is not the type to in canon cheat.
Not sports, but there's also that /fit/ female knight manga.
>waa! I've got a scar on my face
>I better keep it bandaged
worthless beta cuck
based and saotomepilled
oh yeah i forgot about this one i think saotome fans will also like it as the main boy and the female knight have a similar dynamic and confesses his love to her at the start though they don't really end up an official couple
>but the translations died a long time ago and the ending is kind of abrupt like the series was axed
officials are coming out fast and the fighting got boring; only saving grace was the interactions between fights didn't even resolve conflict between mc and yakuza friend
That's not exactly good.
It didn't? Must've gotten axed then. Sucks because I really love the manga.
There's one about a high school soccer protege who has severe OCD.
Saotome and Milky's autistic rivalry is fun to watch.
when milky showed off her arm muscles and saotome just responded with her own to say mine are bigger.
i laughed so hard
reading this manga suddenly makes me feel that it's okay to be a plain manlet dude
it's always been okay, people only troll about manlets because they are insecure of loosing to them in getting the girl they want
it's ok to be a manlet as long as you're a cute twink
here's the thing, I've been planning to be a twink for a few weeks now, I regularly shave, I look up some skincare routine, even considered to go to a dermatologist.
after reading this that feeling is no longer present, suddenly the urge to become manly came back
dude just do you and be a good person in life. if you feel like you want to be manly i say go for it!
don't let a few insecure trolls and snarky comments make you feel like you can't be what you want to be.
>3DPD
Fuck off.
okay we get, you don't like them but we are talking about 2d now.
this was a good chapter
I'm alergic to love triangles and ntr.
Is this safe for me to read it?
abso-fucking-lutely, can't stress this enough.
dunno what'll happen in the future though, but as of right now it's a pure wholesome ride
Nice
>tattoo
Dropped
All the girls in the series are cute.
Poor Agu-chan
it's all good, just prepare to say "daaawwwww"
a lot
Yes. Zero NTR baiting or love triangles. Just a comfy romance.
Ok thanks. I hope it will stay that way
For me it's Thot-chan.
thot-chan is cute but she is to snarky and lewd for her own good.
i like her because we get to see how the mangaka draws feminine characters and i really like their style of drawing
Her forwardness makes her a good wingman though. I want to see her get some development outside of it which is hopefully coming now that all of this relationship stuff is coming to a head.
I want to see her get a nice boy.
Public interlocked handholding
true she is one of the best wingmen in manga and for that i'm greatful she exists as she destroys a lot of the awkward tension the manga and gets them to take stuff to the next level.
she is a very key essential part to the story and it would not be the same without her.
and don't worry i'm sure she won't have a hard to getting a boy especially with how forward she is.
Abs aren't cute or uncute. They're just abs.
>it's okay to be gay
You should know. You're the muscle"""girl""fag. Also no, their faces still look like shit.
I want to milky Milky milkies.
don't be mad because your girl's a loser like when she lost her dad
it's funny and stupid. The cocktease is a good plus.
not the biggest bummer of a side character romance I've recently seen but certainly an interruption of Saotome's gal pal comfy time
Agui's definitely going to end up with this dude. The parallels are too strong right down to them even being framed in the same panel later on.
This is the most underrated aspect of the manga. Saotome herself is great but the male lead is also great. It would have been so easy to make him some stuttering beta loser (which is what I feared he'd be after the first few chapters) but he genuinely supports her, struggles to put out results himself, and isn't afraid to be passionate towards her. This leads to many incredibly heartwarming moments.
i have to agree i see so much of myself in the male lead and i relate to him so much, if you go on manga rock the manga is also in the shy boys reading list.
he is not a loser nor is he a chad he is just average and acts very realistic to situations like an average teenage boy would.
Yeah that's something a lot of waifubait romances fail to do. They focus purely on the waifu and leave the male lead to be a total non-entity. Partly because the author just wants to use it as a way to focus on the type of girl (or girls) he likes, partly because they think makign them a nothing character means otaku waifuists will be able to self-insert easier.
Satoru's actually his own character though and he and Saotome compliment each other well which makes it work, especially as a lot of the series is about how the relationship makes both of them stronger. Satoru does kind of start out wimpy but he's definitely more confident now if still an awkward dork.
Still better than your 0 kisses in over 25 years.
Green boy is better
>he fell for the manly manlet meme
LOL
>MC is some effeminate bitch smaller and weaker than his love interest
Got my hopes up for a moment.
MC is great ya simp
you clearly have not read enough and just skim read it. if you did you wouldn't think that and would see him as one of the best written romance manga mc.
based and milkypilled
cute smuggie
I actually never realized she showed up in the first chapter.
i think what makes Satoru different from any "shy 11th grader" protagonist is that he's not as clueless about what to do in his life compared to other guys. And he doesn't sperg around his girlfiend and a total gentleman
satoru is a fucking g
the autistic hug that follows this makes this even better
this is good evidence that he's not a pushover. any other beta dude would've just complied and let her do what she wants and act on emotions. This guy thinks about the bigger picture while keeping his cool. What a fucking guy
god I love the next page so much
I did it bros, I finally did some exercise for the first time in years. hope I can make it a regular thing now
God damn I loved the newest chapter.
When the two seniors in the boxing club call him out.
Fucking cute bromance
this
that hug, it's really... fluffy
honestly, I'm a bit concerned about Konno's angle. Why does she went out of her way to be the cupid of those 2. like, what does she get out of this?
Het best friend is happy?
I'd like to believe that but I can't help but to feel that there's some kind of an ulterior motive going on here. idk
She obviously has a disdain for her relative the principal (or is it the mayor? The fat old guy) so maybe it's a mixture of both seeing Saotome and Satoru happy while also ruining his 'perfect untouchable idol'.
>smell of sweat and deodorant mixin.png
don't forget also getting to feel her breasts pressed against her body
You cut deep, why would you be so cruel? Has your heart grown so cold so as to no longer love your fellow man. I pray warmth finds you and you ascend with the rest of us when the Modification happens.
But that one is awful tho.
>god i wish that were me
I can't wait for the inevitable sex chapter
They are all cute and I like that they've been getting used more.
>chapter
Dude boxers train for stamina, we're getting a sex volume
>Consensual sex namek
oh baby
agreed, they're important in the sense that they're helping Saotome grow as a person
>sex namek
oh god dude you're giving me Gal Cleaning flashbacks now
>this is my fetish
god I don't think I can handle the emotions
especially if tears are involved, that stuff has gotta be pure vanilla
scale from 1 to 10, how rough are Saotome's hands?
tears, handholding, and morning spooning are musts
feathers/10
almost enough to make me envious of manlets... almost
In my headcanon moisturizing and skincare is the one thing she's conscious of in a feminine manner but she's embarrassed and plays it off like it's just part of her hygiene after training
think I might have made the same look as satoru on this page, and the next..
oops forgot pic
Cute forehead
if there was an anime, how do you figure they'll do her voice? something a bit deep but calm?
cleaned up
might use this for a reaction image
thank you for justifying my new cropping hobby/habit
She looks like a fucking monkey.
Is that the one where the guy is a doll maker and makes cosplay clothes for her? Where's the new fucking chapter?
for you
Based
Cute because it reminds me of Monkey-chan
Given the way the last few chapters have gone since the introduction of that other cosplay girl I'm glad we haven't seen a new one.
it is, and your guess is as good as mine. the chapter dropped on the 19th iirc so fingers crossed for translation soon
The MC is ugly IMO
but the story is wholesome
I like this manga alot
Mostly because of her piercings and the mc
Shame nobody translates this
title? reverse image search failed me
search for
doll maker weirdo
gets real life dolls to make clothes for
the manga
Sono Bisqe Doll, one of the few mangas I'll spoonfeed
>her piercings
I know what you mean. I don't dig piercings on girls outside of the ears and maybe select lewd areas, but I do dig multiple ear piercings. Maybe a side effect of the Gyarupill
Same. Ear piercings are fucking hot. Not that ball shit that destroys your earlobes though. Manga also has "first girl being best girl" going for it.
>she's dating wakana
No she's not. They're not dating anyone rn.
It is being translated. It's just that it's been really fucking bad since the "haha she looks like a loli but is actually older than the main characters" cosplay chick got introduced. The main girl's been shoved into the background in favor of her and when she does get page time it's so she can fangirl out over the new girl.
I have never, ever seen a series go from great to shit so quickly and with such a clearly defined turning point.
isn't wakana senpai's love interest?
i'll be perfectly fine if the story took some time off the main couple to focus on the ones on the side...
Oh actually I forgot then we got the new girl's middle school sister and how man isn't it hilarious how actually the little sister looks like a high school student and has giant tits also here's a chapter where she 3/4 of the page time is the author using her as a mouthpiece to tell you what he's learned about camera lenses.
It's really depressing just how bad, how fast that series got.
I still like it.
Yeah I'm kinda pulling for him now after seeing him being so bro-tier with the secret getting out. Plus she could really use someone good coming into her life right now
yeah, i think wakana and fuki work better than either of them getting with milky
wakana and fuki both look over satoru
milky is kinda doing her own thing learning to depend on people
Why does Satoru remind me of Yugi?
i always wondered by he felt a little familiar
>It's like Eyeshield 21 if it was more focused on romance
So it's bad?
You both are exaggerating very very much, at worst it's gotten boring since nothing has happened, neither of the two girls have been interested in the MC so far, and no event has been particularly bad or anything. At worst it's boring. Stuff like Gal Cleaning or Hoshino shows that shit can get BAD and not just whimper around.
God, these dorks are so happy together!
Enjoy your cucked goods
well depends on what you're looking for I guess. this manga is first and foremost a romance manga, while Eyeshield is 100% sports with little room for romance (even though hints were thrown about Suzuna and Sena or Hiruma and Mamori but they never explored that further)
isn't it hinted at that the cop did it while they were younger?
God damn it. I'm happy for them but nothing bridges the tomboy hole in my heart.
>she will never (NEVER) be real
don't rub the salt in the wound user
does anyone else find it interesting that both of them use Converse in this chapter? thought that was a bit cute
It's everything that was promised.
fucking based
I'm afraid you won't see that many tomboys who are as introverted as Saotome IRL. It's almost like most tomboys are basically the same as regular girls that they went out of their way to look, dress and act like a dude. the kind who does it because she's clueless about girl stuff are very rare.
but heck what do I know?
How is her ass this flat?
her features are pretty modest desu, other than the abs and the muscular arms and legs
don't let it die just yet
also Baby Steps
Out of curiosity, are there any femanons here who read this that find Satoru attractive?
asking the one million dollar question here, seconded
gonna have to ask this on next time's thread
now's a bit late ;-;
I always found him to be really cute.
What makes him cute to you tho?
Bye thread
she's asian
nini anons
bump
FUCK TEPPU
FUCKING BITCH CUNT
That's too bad, but to be fair, the tattoo'd yakuza friend was easily the least interesting charater in the entire manga. Felt like Endo tried really hard to make him this brooding asshole-ish but mysterious and super cool type, but ended up just making him boring... basically what Kenji was to Eden, but even more so.
>spoiler
that can't be good, but on the other hand, what can they leverage against her?
But Thot-chan isn't Agui?
I would cherish Agu-cuck though
She's an Asian girl with like 15% body fat.
this skin color is accurate for most asian female boxers, they're always slightly tanned (but then again that depends on which asian they are)
Disgusting looking manlet MC ruins the entire manga.
Was it too hard to make him look like a man or something?
i think he's cute
>but the translations died a long time ago
Oh fug
I just caught up with the translation and thought it was released monthly or something, didn't even know the series is finished ;_;
Give it to me straight, does Maki get to seal the deal
