A Girlfriend for Studying

I initially chose to read this book because I simply wanted to see which laid-back author could persevere so long among the many VIP works, remaining at the bottom of the rankings. Then, after reading just the first chapter, I discovered a serious problem: Good heavens, I couldn't get out! (`Δ´)ゞ What's with the lack of titles for every volume, chapter, and section? (Please have some understanding for us perfectionists!) And what's with all the typos in the text? (Although it's most likely the fault of the author, SF-chan). But these are minor flaws; not having quizzes is what makes Chika so unique. Next...

It's rare to find a novel that suits my taste, so I'll write a long review. Personally, I really enjoy innocent and youthful romance novels, but "My Girlfriend is a Student"... Well, it's not exactly innocent. In fact, I didn't really feel like we were dating; the two main characters were like an old married couple (laughs). Of course, in reality, it's more like a romantic comedy, themed around cheerful school life. A harem is a must, otherwise it wouldn't be this long (laughs). What's reassuring is that it seems to have a single female lead? The author's influence from "My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU" is clearly visible...

To be honest, my first reaction upon seeing the title was to open it and read it. I initially thought it was "Studying/Using a Girlfriend," but after reading further, I realized it was "Studying/Using a Girlfriend." If it were the former, it would probably be banned by now (laughs). Don't tell me I'm the only one who punctuated it like that. Okay, let's talk about the content. Literally, the theme of "Studying/Using a Girlfriend" is very novel. I've never seen such a title in many light novels. After all, campus romance novels are rare; many light novels focus on gender-swap, yuri, yaoi, etc., To attract readers, resulting in light novels with only content but no substance...

This novel is worth reading. Putting aside the character design, it reminded me of *My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong As Expected*, it was amazing. Lan Qing is a lot like Hachiman Hikigaya, and Lin Fenghua is more like Yukinoshita. Nan Yushi is like that other girl, I forget her name. Xiao Ying seems very sensible; I wish my sister could be like her. Please give it your support! Arigato, I'm going to steal away Aunt Tsukasa! More to write, oh my god, so embarrassing. I don't know what to say, just keep writing. Support! Support!! Support!! Chika is working very hard. Although she acts like an idiot every day, who isn't? ...

This is an article about what monthly tickets actually are. I've been a fan for three months, read a dozen or so novels, but why don't I have any monthly tickets? Everyone says long book reviews might get you monthly tickets. But I don't even understand what a book review is, which is really frustrating. I just wanted to write something. I can no longer receive your love, nor be needed by you anymore, so I am all alone. What did you say back then? Words that couldn't be conveyed scattered across the sky. Even though I've already realized it, I still made an impossible wish: Please don't leave, please hold my hand tightly, please say you'll be with me forever...

I was initially drawn in by the title, "Using a Girlfriend?", But as I read on, I became increasingly engrossed, completely captivated by the book. The writing style is consistently simple and unpretentious, lacking excessive embellishment, yet still possessing a delicate touch. The psychological descriptions are remarkably nuanced, conveying the characters' inner thoughts through subtle actions or words. The interplay between character development, story, and setting is also skillfully executed. Therefore, I believe this is a truly exceptional book. (Hehe, a bit nervous writing my first book review, please forgive any shortcomings [laughs])

Happy Lunar New Year's Eve everyone! Thank you all for your continued support.

This is actually my second long review on SF, so please forgive any inconsistencies or inappropriate word choice. I've only read up to the end of the unreleased fourth volume, when the carnival planning was finalized, so this long review focuses on the first four volumes. First of all, I really like the protagonist's personality. He only deals with his own problems when they're absolutely urgent, but he finds it hard to refuse requests from others and goes to great lengths to help them, even if it means getting hurt himself. He's also incredibly proactive. Maybe it's a bit like me? (Laughs) However, this kind of personality, except for his closest family...

Well, I don't know why I wanted to write this book review. But since I've started, I might as well do it well. This is one of my favorite works. I've only read the second half of Carnival so far. Anyway, the author really knows how to keep you in suspense! Lan Qing's past might be tragic, making him fearful and leading him to choose escape. So, he chose escapism, much like a certain great teacher's energy conservation. But Lan Qing's motivation comes from his girlfriend's academic ability, and only he himself doesn't know what really happened. Some details reveal what terrible things the male protagonist did in the past to protect himself...

This is a pretty good light novel, but it feels like the author is just writing a diary of inner monologues rather than focusing on the characters' inner thoughts. However, the plot is fantastic and very suspenseful. I personally prefer the university arc, so I skipped to that part. Having read the university arc, I already know what happened before, and it's definitely a single-female-lead story. I thought I was at a disadvantage from the start, but now I realize the male lead was born at the finish line. The title didn't give me a great first impression, but the content is definitely the most authentically Japanese light novel in the SF (Sword Art Online) genre. I always wait until it's fully developed before reading it, and I'm also giving away my saved-up monthly votes. This is my favorite web light novel. Go, Chinatsu!
