I'm writing this review after I've just finished reading the 19th chapter.
Reading "5-ji kara 9-ji made" the sentence "Bad love isn't better than none" constantly come to my mind. But first things first.
In the beginning the setting seemed interesting.
While I read the first chapters I had to laugh at the kind of "reverse harem" vibe the manga gave off, with so many love interests being available for Junko.
Junko seemed like a smart person, but I soon began to doubt that.
I don't want to spoil anything specific, but after some stuff the male protagonist pulled off, Junko still didn't cut ties with him. Even though that
...
guy was clearly obsessive - not in a good way, but in a plain creepy "better call the cops" way.
How could anyone - even for a second - consider a relationship with someone who doesn't accept any boundaries and doesn't accept your dreams? Who instead wants you to "reflect" on yourself and change you to his kind of "ideal wife", which is highly delusional and oppressive behaviour?
The only thing that kept me going, were the side stories with the supporting characters, which were funny and entertaining, as well as the hope, that Junko would made a decent choice for once.
After reading 19 chapters I only feel annoyed about the main characters and that the story is going nowhere/in circles.
With that I conclude my review.
Kind of sad that I have to say that "5-ji kara 9-ji made" is one of the worst manga, and most certainly the worst Josei manga I've ever read.
But don't let this stop you from reading the manga.
Read it and create your own opinion.
I'm sorry for any grammar/spelling mistakes - English isn't my native language.
