Daughter's Friend is Based

After the rain :
>panders to slave morality, inauthentically divorced from libido
>treads water for volume after with nothing progressing
>coasts on pretty art, no any intrigue or drama
>shows no costs to a romantic relationship between a 45 year old man and a teenager


Daughter's Friend :
>character lives with authenticity, in touch with libido
>plot and relationships develop quickly and consistently
>balls to the wall, A+ intrigue and drama
>shows all of the costs to a romantic relationship between a 45 year old man and a 15 year old girl

I challenge any After the Rain fags to post any moment from it as memorable as this, just one of many outrageous moments from Daughter's Friend.

They cannot because there is nothin memorable about After the Rain. One chapter or volume just blends into another because nothing of significance ever happens in After the Rain. It's just a blur of pretty pictures where they work at the restaurant and nothing happens.
It's basically a slice of life manga posing as a romance/drama manga.
If someone tried to tell the story of the plot of after the rain probably the best they could do is
"uh this teenage girl falls for this 45 yo restaurant worker after he's nice to her after she injured her ankle running and so she works at that restaurant and confesses a crush to him and then they have 8 volumes of cute moments that don't go anywhere and then he turns her down and the story ends"
like seriously what else happens in the plot? he invites the girl to celebrate his son's birthday and uh at one point there is a black out and they almost kiss?
Shut the fuck up.

I guess you love series like Shingeki no Kyojin and Virgin Extinction Island too.

Trying to start a fanbase war to draw attention to your shitty series is just sad.

I think I was 3 volumes deep into After the Rain before I realized it was romance between the main character and the old guy. I literally thought it was about a girl who was struggling to find purpose after a leg injury caused her to drop out of the track team.

Daughter's friend already gets regularly updated translations so I don't need to drum up any attention on that front.

I just want to point out how utterly superior on every front Daughter's Friend is to After the Rain.

Yes for SnK, but Virgin Extinction Island is only "quite good" or "not bad" so far

The girl from daughter's friend gets raped though.
And we all know nothing screams DRAMA and PLOT kore than fucking rape.

What an obscure pair of manga to try and troll with.

Akira Tachibana :
>Nothing but a pretty face. Bland personality.

Kisaragi Koto :
>Is a force of nature. 100% based and awesome. Rich and interesting personality

It's a scathing critique, not a troll.

no she doesn't. she almost gets raped. and there's tonnes of rich, spicy, balls-to-the-wall drama before then.

DRAMA and PLOT is more like some melodramatic shit like Boy's Abyss or Koe no Katachi

I dropped after the rain after 10 ch so you're right I guess

its inflammatory remarks with the goal of starting a stupid internet argument. that's trolling. you're trolling.

it's not stupid. and it would only be trolling if I didn't mean what I was saying and was saying it to annoy people.

I'm saying it because it's the truth.

Try Daughter's Friend.

One is for women.

The truth would be trying to compare two series of similar subject matter. This is just "old man young girl" at its very basest and both tackle different themes. Like comparing idolmaster with bojack horseman

bump

Kill yourself, redditor. Also, they're both good manga.

The fuck?
>struggling to find purpose after a leg injury
is what the manga is about, among other things.

Hinamatsuri is better.

They are of almost the most similar subject matter and premise possible. However one is authentic and good while the other is fake and shit.

they're both published in seinen magazines. You're right however that after the rain has no balls and nothing to offer but pretty shoujo-ish art.

I agree that was a cute romance.

This. Actual daughteru story with realistic father attitude and funny yakuza antics. After the rain is also great for non-fifteen years old girls that can only see romance in everything sourrinding them. After the rain is aimed to people who actually had/have relationships but also struggled with unrequited love, they are able to the understand not only the real struggles of the heroine but the doubts and maturity of a man like Kondo. Daughter’s friend is literally a better portray of your Friday soap opera.

>no rape
dropped.

This is a pretty pathetic way to get people to talk about your favorite series. Please learn to socialize a little.

Someone summoned me?

Nothing good ever comes out of a “SOUL - SOULLESS” post

what's the fuck is this?

>wahh he criticised a manga I like this upset me :(
fuck off to reddit or something you faggot
