![]() Well, in this manga Makoto is an even bigger douche, and a rapist to boot, but he ends up fine. The ending of School Days is the best part for most people. None of the characters were good, realistic, or redeemable in any way, form, or shape. Setsuna was my favorite character in the anime, but here she is reduced to an unimportant plot-device. Makoto became a generic villain, Taisuke became a cliché and possibly homosexual bromantic foil, which is the very archetype he originally deconstructed, Sekai became nothing but a slut, and Kotonoha was as boring as always except she never really went yandere. ![]() The characters from School Days were simplified or just changed completely. The main character was a pathetic loser with no redeeming qualities and the heroine was a very typical tsundere. This is a cliché shounen romance slash gender bender. The MC dressed up like a girl after an extremely convoluted line of reasoning convinced him it would somehow help his situation. The two MCs were inexplicably shipped by the MC's sister for the sake of the plot. School Days is known for not following conventions of the industry, but this manga did just that. The worst part is that it looked like the ending would be tragic and slightly redeeming, although the tragedy seemed kind of forced in the first place, but tragedy was somehow (it was literally physically impossible) averted and it was shit. This series is actually pretty big on anticlimaxes. ![]() It takes place on an alternate timeline where the school days harem ending occurred, effectively killing any drama there and creating a stupid anticlimax. It doesn't add extra detail to the original plot or anything like that. The first thing that you have to understand is that this is NOT an "addition" to the franchise. Trust me, as much as you want to avoid this manga anyway, it's twice as shitty if you're actually a school days fan. Let's get this out of the way: I love school days.
