Why is To-Love-Ru popular?

I genuinely don't understand the appeal. I have read both To-Love-Ru and To-Love-Ru Darkness. It's just a fan service haram manga. It has next to no story and seems really stupid to me.

It's super interesting

The girls, duh.

Because other readers are heterosexual males.

>Why is To-Love-Ru popular?

So ? Fairy tail and Shokugeki no Souma also don't have story and have only fanservice, yet people still buy it. Monogatari is just a fanservice harem light novel, yet people still buy it

> fairy tale and soma
But they do have a story

...

Because It's just a fan service haram manga.

Denial isn't a good thing, user.

Because it's super interesting.

?

In case of TLR I don't really understand it either, but you have to be biologically dysfunctional to not see the appeal in case of Darkness.

...

The Tale of Genji isn't much better.
Sexy escapades as a medium for glacial plot progression is a good formula. Add in excellent art and Doraemon-esque shenanigans, and you've got a timeless hit.

Off you go.

My main, but far from only, problem with To-Love-Ru is that Rito doesn't do anything! Pick one or date them all, I don't care! Just do something!

Why am I gay if I don't like To-Love-Ru?

>Sexy escapades
>Add in excellent art and Doraemon-esque shenanigans

This. That's all you need to hook up a good chunk of male and even female audience. Also make the harem so big that it will serve literally every taste (well...almost, but there isn't much left) and it's done.

You gonna have a bad time though, if you feel like your taste in animu is shifting and you still want to keep up with TLR. It will become boring as hell, because there will rarely happen something really relevant.

Atleast Rito was able to kiss once now after YEARS, even if it was onyl accidental

Never understand the appeal of the first one. Its gets boring so fast.

Harem manga trend to do fairly well, most of them end because the author grows tired of them not because are cancelled. With their ratings lot of them could have been running for decades if the author wished.

Hasemi and Yabuki are not tired of it yet so it continues being succesful.

So why is this not porn yet?

I don't get it either. It's nice that it made Mikan exist but the filthy fucking xenos and everyone else is trash. Not going to read this garbage just for Mikan.

Because Yabuki's art is gold.

Because Yabuki can keep getting away with it

>Monogatari is just a fanservice harem light novel, yet people still buy it
but it has a vampire plotline...

TLR is to romcom harems what Eva is to mecha.

Darkness is more boring.

She barely appear in the manga.

but darkness is pure fan service. To Lo Ru tried too hard to be funny.

Are you retarded

The manga art is gorgeous and sexy

Yabuki is a god

>hey look how mature and sophisticated i am, for i hate a popular series! doesn't make me a super interesting person since apparently my tastes are different from everyone else? and of course superior, after all if everybody likes it it must not be good because the majority is mediocre and i'm special

>Getting trolled this hard
My brother posted this as a joke. Looks like it worked. HAHAHA

>LOL I TROL U
epic

Boom!
That was the dankest of trolls, my man

Any Risa or Mikan posts?

This whole thread is the cringiest thing ever.

You mean you baited me? I can't tell.

Because besides beeing drawed by one of the best ilustrators for dick teasing,
there's something that To-loverRu does really well,
and that is staying relevant for a long period without feeling like the autor's dragging a dead horse.
Nobody would give two fucks about it if it still were just lala inventions failing with sexual results.
Instead, the author kept introducing characters an "plotlines" that actually kept the series fresh,
and that's something you don't see very regularly in mangakas/authors of long running series.

TL;DR: It's super interesting

Because Yabuki is the literal madman.

Nemesis is the catalyst for all the plot in Darkness. Everything else is just PLOT.

Because tits and ass
