Comment on [Discussion] Lala Lab ⭐︎ Gyaru, Science, and Youth! - Ch. 4
Elevator7009sAlt@ani.social 2 weeks agoHuh? I wasn’t expecting romance at all and your reply seems to suggest you think I expected it. What about the title implies romance? I definitely expected a gyaru, but no romance. A workplace comedy of working in an academic lab in life sciences sounds interesting, though I don’t have a background in it.

That’s my bad, romance is something I was expecting going into this series, especially after the first chapter consisted largely of discussions on how Lala can appeal to other members of her department. Looking back on it that expectation might have come from my conflating this series in my head with Rikekoi - Science Fell in Love, so I Tried to Prove It, which is much more explicitly a romance.

Oh! How did you like that? It’s on my to-read list.

I watched the first season of the anime and loved it, planning on reading it after finishing the second season. However, I hated the end of the second season and the direction the story was headed, so I decided against reading beyond that. I still think that the first season is a great standalone experience and I liked it a lot.

Now I’m curious where the story was headed in the second season that turned you off, but that would be spoilers…
