Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san review

Yep. She looks cute.

Whether it's her trademark grin, her laid-back clothing style or details like how her hairclip and earring match, her visual design comes together really well.

And that's why she gets away with horrible behaviour.

The entire entertainment lies within the interaction of spunky Nagatoro being mean to her upperclassman, a timid boy slighly older than her, without any reason other than her personal enjoyment. And very quickly a single question appears here.

How much is too much?

Where does teasing stop and bullying start? What is a joke and what is an insult? It's as simple as it is complicated: It's up to the one on the receiving end of the interaction. Are they having fun with it? Can they give you a smile, or calmly tease you back for it?

The first encounter between Nagatoro and her unnamed senpai results in Nagatoro laughing at him, making fun of his hobbies and hopes to the point that he breaks down in tears in front of her.

"Suck it up.", you might think. "Don't be such a pussy."
Do a little check and reverse the scenario for a moment.

Imagine an agressive boy meeting a timid girl. Shoving her against the wall, laughing at her attempts to draw. How she clumsily writes stories, drawing imagination from reality. How her insecurities are showing. Her wordlessly breaking down in tears, unable to stand the confrontation.

Still cute? Still within "teasing"?

Enjoy your story then. You'll have lots of fun with this one.
