Bitter Virgin Ch 21




Were on a roll lately with the Bitter Virgin chapters. Well this is a little late since a had a basketball game well here it is.
Ibuse instead of attacking Daisukes sister, Ibuse goes of on her saying how she forced her love too. Daisukes sister then fakes pains in her stomach and when Ibuse attempts to help her Daisukes sister says that she isnt a bad person. Ibuse runs away saying that persistance can get you what you want. Daisuke is cooking and reflects on his sisters old high school loves that many times she cried over. Daisukes mother buys a crib for the baby because she wants to take care of her grandson and Daisukes sister is shocked but eventually says she doesnt like the crip and will return it. On Daisukes way back from school his sister comes and gets him, aikawa, and yuzu to help her return the crip. In the scences that follow Daisukes thinks about how aikawa and how she never got to see her own child.
This chapter there is no cliff hanger ending which is rare. This is my least favorite chapter of volume 3 so far. I hope there may be one chapter with no references to aikawas sad past and focus on there person relationship. Well there is not really much else to say about this chapter so bye.

Bitter Virgin Ch 19 & 20



We have been on a roll recently with these chapters recently we have recieved ch 19 and 20 on back to back days

Ch 19 starts off with the cliff hanger of Daisukes sister asking if Aikawa had been pregnant. She thinks it because of how nervous she was when touching her belly like a coworker who also had an abortion. Also Aikawa asked how many weeks not how many months like most people. Daisuke gets nervous but his sister plays it off with a just kidding statement (LAME!!) Daisuke then wants to tell his sister but stops. He then reluctantly asks and touches his sisters stomach. Then he realizes that will be his nephew and he will be an uncle. He tells his sister to have a healthy baby. Aikawa reflects on how much Daisukes words made her feel better. Aikawa thinks about her own child asking herself would she have been able to love the child if she had kept it. Daisukes crazy girlfriend attacks Aikawa and tells her to stay away from Daisuke. She throws Aikawas stuff all over the place. Daisuke comes and helps pick up Aikawas stuff when she takes his hand and holds it to her face. Daisuke cant hold back and hugs Aikawa (Yes!)

Ch 20 Daisuke is shocked Aikawa doesnt pull away from him. He quickly pulls away saying it was a joke and tries to leave but Aikawa tells him to wait for her. Aikawa was shocked at how the hug didnt bother her but watching Daisuke walk away did. Daisukes crazy girlfriend comes up to Daisuke wanting to come over to his house. Then she says how his sister got pregnant and then ran home. Daisuke then tells her there is no way she is coming over. When Daisuke leaves she vows to try harder. At the grocery market Aikawa bumps into a man and quickly backs away. Daisukes sister then says you are scared of men but you dont have a problem with Daisuke. All the women around are pointing and gossiping about Daisukes sister who tells Aikawa dont they know what a single mother is and how she brokes the rules. Daisukes sister then tells Aikawa about how she became a single mother then quickly changes the subject to ' You like Daisuke dont you'. Aikawa blushes so Daisukes sister knows its true. She tells Aikawa to steal Daisuke away from his girlfriend. Daisukes girlfriend show up at Daisukes house saying she wants to bake him a cake. Daisukes sister says there is no oven for her there and tries to get her to leave. She even tells Daisukes girlfriend (Ibuse, I finally remembered) that she is wearing trampy clothes and even says Daisuke doesnt even like her. When Daisukes sister turns to walk inside Ibuse raises her hands to attack her.

Well these were good chapters i like how Daisuke knows he likes Aikawa and vice versa. I love the ending of each chapter because they are always cliff hangers but in the next chapter they play it off in the first few pages which blows. I am sad how fast there falling in love with each other because it will make the series shorter. Well i look forwad to the next chapter soon and i dont even expect Ibuse to really do anything.

Unbalanced X Unbalanced ch 49




This is a series that i enjoy that reminds me of onegai sensei which is probably the reason i like it. I guess i just have a thing for the student goes out with hot teacher thing. But this is actually a korean manhawa. This and Goong are probably the only manhawa that i pay attention to at the moment. So that in its self makes it very interesting to me.

Well for those of you who are new to the series it is about a boy Jin-ho who actually sleeps with a beautiful older women Sungeneim and takes her virginity while they are both drunk. At school Jin-ho finds out Hae-Young is his home room teacher and later on she even thinks she is pregnant but it was a false alarm. Afterwards is a series of awkward events between the two characters. Hae-Young half sister Caroline who she hates comes to korea to be a teacher. Caroline wants to make Jin-ho hers to which Sungeneims is irrated but as they have no relationship she refuses to do anything.

Jin-ho and Caroline go to a video room to watch a movie and Hae-Young is following there trail. Hae-Young buys the room next to theirs and hears some very *wink* sounds from the room and runs in to stop them but it is a different couple. Hoa-Young hurries off saying it is not any of here business anyway what they are doing. Jin-ho and Caroline are in the next room down were Caroline is making herself available to Jin-ho who seems totally oblivious. Until finally Caroline tells Jin-ho you can do what ever you want. Hae-Young is off eating telling herself nothings going to happen right?

Well to me this is a boring chapter with some useless thrown in ecchi elements. It annoys me how oblivious Jin-ho is with women but what comic character isnt? Well i hope for a more interesting scanalation soon.

Bitter Virgin ch 17 & 18





Finally after manga months solarious-suv has released new chapters of bitter virgin. They released chapter 17 & 18.

At the beginning of chapter 17 we see the story of how daisukes sister left for tokyo and it has been six years since she has returned home. After a short view of her leaving home we get back to the present with daisukes sister saying how daisuke would never do such a thing. in a sad side note we see aikawa say that if your raped you cant say anything because you are so scared which is from her personal experience. daisukes sister almost trips and falls and aikawa says that daisuke needs to be more gentle with her. she is 33 weeks pregnant. daisuke and his sister return home and she tells her mother that she will get her first grandchild. When there mother asks about the father daisukes sister says he is a client from a solo transfer. So the man is already married. her mother instantly becomes angry and hits her. there mother says that daisuke must be ashamed of his sister but daisuke stands up for his sister saying it is not a disgrace. daisukes sister says she wants to have the baby and daisuke notice she gives off the feeling of a mother. He realizes that aikawa has had these same moments of weakness.

In chapter 18 daisukes sister luggage comes as she is planning to give birth to the baby her in her home town. She has quit her job and rented out her apartment. daisuke sister tells her mother that the little guy is hungry. Her mother yells out in excitement its a boy. She seems to finally accept her daughters choice. There mother makes sure that they keep the pregnancy a secret from the other people in town. daisuke sees the kicks of the baby affect his sister and imagines how bad it must have been for aikawa who was only in junior high. yuzu runs up to daisuke yelling that he is going to have a baby. In response he yells that that is his sister. So now it is the talk of the school that his sister is pregnant. aikawa and yuzu go over to daisuke house after school to meet his sister. yuzu excitedly touches the stomach trying to feel the baby. yuzu then makes aikawa touch it who oviously is reluctent. and daisukes sister doesnt help been saying the baby wants to come out and say hi to its mommy. aikawa quickly says she has to leave and hurries quickly out of the house. aikawa runs away saying how it was a curse to have your stomach grow big. daisuke catches up to her and before he evens says anything aikawa says that she doesnt like kids and will probably never hold one. daisuke tries to cheer her up by saying they helped his sisters baby. aikawa smiles and agrees. daisuke wants to confront her about her secret but he cant. when he returns home his sister confronts him and asks ' that girl has been pregnant before, hasnt she.'

these werent that interesting of chapters i really dont like daisuke sister that much and i dont think she is very interesting. But the last page does leave a good cliff hanger for the next chapter.
