Rainbow Days, Vol. 1 by Minami Mizuno

What an unlikely group! This is supposed to be a shoujo comedy, but I didn't find it funny.
Call me a seasoned reader, or a manga trope connoisseur, but these are just the same old tired tropes that may not fit modern thinking.
The men hating lesbian, the kinky sadist, the cheating player who juggles a girlfriend rotation (and for some reason, the mc who judges this and sees himself as pure is still friends with a person like that?! 😒), the nerd (otaku) dating a cosplayer, the player getting attracted to the lesbian, etc...
What's so funny about us knowing a character is kinky with a partner consensually? And what's worse, why are kinky characters still being made to involve third parties without consent by writers, as a cheap joke?
Can we have sapphic women who doesn't hate all men?
Can we not normalise a boyfriend thinking he has the right to be mad and talk about breaking up because his girlfriend dyed her hair, and he likes black hair?
Includes short Us One Year and Afterward. I don't care about it either.
The art is nice.
I won't be continuing this.
