From the Bookshelf: Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki Lv.7

After continuing on from a cliffhanger appropriate for the kind of story it is was delayed by a volume of short stories (and wanting to finish the Crest of the Stars omnibus first, too), I felt ready to pick up the seventh “regular” volume of Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki to start reading it. As I did that, though, a special sort of uncertainty was emerging again within me. The story did seem to be getting closer to a moment anticipated from its opening, when “self-improvement through game-like challenges” would narrow down to “get a girlfriend,” and for once I wasn’t quite sure I’d just be taking things as they came.
( A few personal admissions )
