Being all lovey-dovey with the heroine, and leading a fulfilling high school life with the best of friends. However, there’s no way something that exciting could happen in reality. I have no younger step-sister, no childhood friend, no classmate who’s an idol, no mysterious senpai, and not even a male best friend character. That being the case, what can I do? Obviously, I have to put it together myself! For a romantic comedy, you need both data analysis and constant practice!

Genjitsu de Rabukome Dekinai to Dare ga Kimeta? Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on Genjitsu de Rabukome Dekinai to Dare ga Kimeta?
This light novel, "Genjitsu de Rabukome Dekinai to Dare ga Kimeta?", has definitely piqued my interest, and it seems I'm not alone. This award-winning series promises a unique spin on the rom-com genre, and while my journey is still early, I'm eager to share my initial impressions.
First Impressions
The premise alone is quite intriguing. A clever protagonist, determined to orchestrate real-life rom-com scenarios? It sounds like a recipe for either comedic gold or utter disaster, and honestly, I'm here for both. I can see why some readers might find the initial setup a bit "iffy," as one reviewer put it. It definitely leans into the realm of the unrealistic, but that's part of the charm, right?
What Works Well
What immediately grabs me, and seems to resonate with many readers, is the dynamic between the main characters. The female lead isn't just a cardboard cutout, and the supporting cast seems to have depth beyond the typical rom-com archetypes. I appreciate that the protagonist is resourceful and intellectual, even if his methods are... questionable. He frequently references other romcom LNs, which is a fun touch for those familiar with the genre. This adds a layer of self-awareness that I find quite refreshing. The translation also seems to be a strong point, with several readers praising the quality and passion of the translation team.
Areas of Concern
Honestly, my biggest concern, and one echoed by many, is the translation speed. With six volumes out in the original language and us only being partway through volume two, the wait is agonizing. I understand translation is a labor of love, but the inconsistent release schedule can definitely dampen the enthusiasm. Also, I can see how some might find the protagonist's internal monologues a bit cringey or the planning aspect overemphasized, potentially overshadowing character development.
Final Verdict
Despite some reservations about pacing and translation speed, "Genjitsu de Rabukome Dekinai to Dare ga Kimeta?" offers a refreshing and engaging take on the rom-com genre. The well-developed characters, clever protagonist, and unique premise make it a worthwhile read for any rom-com lover. I'm cautiously optimistic that this series will continue to deliver, and I'm definitely sticking around to see where it goes. Just please, translators, keep up the good work!
