Or maybe people who he cares about. Saki confessed, he has to start worrying about his feelings for her too.

exactly what I wanted to say....just how dumb is this main char...not being able to even figure out such a simple thing.

I wonder for how many volumes this will last cause things seem to be progressing at a fast phase

Well it's not as if he can do anything if he knew that fact.

If I were him, I wouldn't even be worried about the conditions for getting into the mirror more so than the ones to get out of it.

But at least with Saki, things should get more interesting.

If there's a love, then that person can go into the mirror also. That's the way I see it.

I'm predicting somekind of bittersweet ending where one of the girls sacrifices herself by getting stuck permanently in the mirror so that the other girl can be with the MC.

It's not completely correct.

The original 'curse/spell' was created by a lonely witch that was in love with a man. She loved and admired him from afar, and decided that if she couldn't have him no one would. She brought her unrequited love to the brink of death and 'sealed' him inside the mirror so that if he loved her they could be together forever. But he didn't love her, and therefore following the curse accordingly no one was allowed to have him -- his entity vanished. With her love gone, she killed herself out of pity and loneliness.

What I'm trying to say is that
"Only one reason : If someone love the hero, she can go in the mirror."
is false. HE did not love HER, but HE was still inside the mirror.

I think the actual formula is (though admittedly a bit too obvious for my part): Anyone related to the 'imprisoned one' in terms of love is able to switch places with the imprisoned one. So it doesn't matter whether he loves or is loved in that matter. So someone can switch places with him as long as that person loves him, or that person is loved by him. Seeing how 'love' is more than just romantic, I'm not sure how far the boundaries lay (a.k.a. close friends, relatives). But considering it's a Shounen, and the mirror is in fact an item created by the antics of a hopeless romantic, it probably just limits itself to romantic loves.

you have a good point here

its a good thing that the story turned out like this because there is more chance it will prolong the series but the story its really great but i think its progressing to fast maybe it was on a verge of a cancellation thats why he is proggressing the story at this pace to make it a lot interesting or maybe the mangaka just saw the fan base for matsukawa

Yeah. It's kind of interesting to see how mangakas on the verge of cancellation write their stories.
Though this guy really deserves stable income after Mx0.

Well, if this will gonna be the setting. I think Kano might be going in a harem route here, introducing new girls in the future chapters.

People need to stop worrying that Kano has only introduced this turn of events just because the series is on the verge of being cancelled. It's NOT. If anything, ST&RS is showing more signs of being cancelled just based off rankings.

For all we know, he may have (and should have, as all authors should have an ending or goal in mind before writing any story) and he had planned to have this turn of events, and it coincidentally happens at the same time when the manga dipped a bit in the rankings.

You sure??? Cause when the public do hear of the votes, it is 8 weeks behind (i.e the 8 weeks prior to that week)

I think anyone who has an unrequited love can go into the mirror, as Elydan pointed it nicely, along with relationships and such. The manga is awesome at this point.

Oh. I like STARS too though! I hope they cancel neither.

Oh this is the guy from Mx0? If so, that kinda proves why I like this manga as much. :P
Mx0 was amazing.

Seeing how Mx0 was really fast-paced too, it doesn't surprise me that this manga does likewise if it's from the same mangake. If so, hopefully we don't have a future cancellation on our hands.

oh wow she left him in a an exciting but tough spot at the end. I mean half naked girls? exciting? them finding out a guy is there? uh oh!

obviously it has something to do with their feelings towards him whether they can switch or not. plus there is still the confession to deal with. this has really gotten interesting lately.

I'm guessing it's because he got involved with a new love with another person. Nothing was said about the curse not being transferable, right?

If that's the case, I'd bet Tetsu and Mao are unable to switch now. If so, it's because there's more love between Tetsu x Saki now than Tetsu x Mao. In other words, Tetsu now has feelings for them both, while Saki currently loves Tetsu more than Mao loves Tetsu.

And now Saki's part of the trouble. I'm assuming that a person must be involved with the trapped person romantically in order to switch positions. But that being said, is Harisugawa miraculously alive because he quickly switched positions before he was gonna get killed?

5/5
