Nyan Koi ! volume 2

Blogged by on Tuesday March 24th, 2009 at 7:32 pm in English, Manga (spoilers), Nyan Koi ! | 0 Comments »

I’ve been wondering why I couldn’t find anything about “Nyankoi !” on the english internet… It’s because it’s been romanized as “Nyan Koi !” orz (dunno, for some reason I was thinking ‘nyanko’ when I saw the title and thought it was some kind of pun)

Anyway, I’m glad I came across this manga back then (see post about the first volume), because I’ve read the second volume last week and it was really nice~

Time for some random scans~ (been a while)

nyankoi0201
Some big jerk who has been introduced at the end of the first volume, Ichinose-sempai, challenges Junpei.

nyankoi0202
But Junpei totally forgot about it and the guy caught a cold for having stayed 3 days on the school’s roof waiting for Junpei XD

nyankoi0203
“Junpei Kousaka ! Let’s fight for knowing who will get Kaede Mizuno !”
(classic~)

nyankoi0204
… but the guy collapses from his cold, and the crew has to carry him home.

nyankoi0205
And he’s not only a jerk, but he’s also some rich bastard.
(classic~)

nyankoi0206
Ichinose-sempai happens to have a cat, Josephine (XD). It asks Junpei to help Ichinose-sempai to find love, because it’s after being rejected by his first love that he became such a jerk.

nyankoi0207
But helping Ichinose-sempai means giving up on Kaede !
And not giving up on Kaede means becoming a cat !
Pinch !

nyankoi0208
Once the girls are out of the picture, Ichinose-sempai can finally have his challenge. And yeah, he’s a kendoka (classic~).

nyankoi0209
When thunder suddenly strikes nearby…

nyankoi0210
!?

nyankoi0211
REVERSE TRAP KITAAAAA !!!

nyankoi0212
She wears a ‘Sader’ mask and ‘Nagato’ headphones for not being scared by thunder~ XD
“YOU’RE NOT A GUY !?”

nyankoi0213
“WHO ARE YOU CALLING A GUY !!!”
“… even my first love rejected me because he mistook me for a guy”
XD

nyankoi0214
And what had to happen happens~

nyankoi0215
Man, I find her unattractiveness so… attractive XD

nyankoi0216a
Even if Junpei is actually not aware of it, it’s ‘mission complete’ XD

nyankoi0217
Since Ichinose-sempai is in love with both Junpei and Kaede, she decides to ‘back-up’ Junpei and Kaede’s relationship XD
But Kanako won’t let that to happen~
<3

nyankoi0218
After that, it gets a chapter which introduced the obligatory scatterbrained onee-san character : Chizuru, a postwoman with no sense of direction XD
A lovely chapter, kinda iyashi-kei <3

nyankoi0219
Random Kaede pic, who’s still the love & piece <3

nyankoi0220
At the end, obligatory mysterious loliish character appears !

Man, I love the fact that this love-triangle manga suddenly became a harem manga <3

This manga is really a nice surprise, because, just like I said in the post about the first volume, I just picked it randomly in the second-handed books and I wasn’t really expecting too much from it. But it ends up being great <3

The 3rd volume got released about 2 weeks ago, and I’m waiting for it to be delivered. Also, it became popular enough in japan for them to make an anime version~

I wonder why it’s being snobbed by the scanlation limbo, though… well, not that I particularly care anyway…
