Okay, so I finally decided to see what this is all about, and am now in the process of catching up.

And I have a question that’s almost entirely unrelated to the manga, and not all that important either, but it’s driving me nuts.

I have a hazy memory of a manga character - female, I’m almost certain - latching onto and repeating the name Takakura Ken - like grabbing another character and shaking them and shouting “TAKAKURA KEN! TAKAKURA KEN!” More as a sort of nonsense phrase than as a name.

And I can’t for the life of me remember where that’s from. The character, IIRC, is a sort of manic boke - like Wada in Food Court de Mata Ashita or Kyoko in YuruYuri, but I’m pretty sure it’s neither of them.

And by the bye, this is a pretty good series. It’s sort of amusing that it started with that generally unbelievable premise of a shy otaku and a loud gyaru getting together, but then that rapidly became the least unbelievable thing about it. It’s as if the idea was as long as we’re going to make this unrealistic, let’s just go all in. And I’m all for it.

Adding some western folklore to the chaos? I’m all for it!
