My mind is so split with this story... While the storyline is great, well written, and has a lot of surprizes and intriguing plots, it still bugs me why male MCs always have to be such friggin' pussies in these VNs? I mean, which man with a tiny pinch of self respect just stands whining for his own sorry ass, while a woman is fighting two armed soldiers? Even after she disarmed both, he's still asking himself whether he should help or just run away with the girls. He's an ass when he's supposed to be sensitive and supportive, and a pussy when he really needs to man up. Seriously? Way too much soy in his latte... Why is this trend in VNs so common nowadays? I am not just criticizing, but truly curious. This behavior ruins a very good story for me. I can't be the only one, am I?
