I think this is the first time I have seen To Love-Ru called a classic. Say what you like about Rito, but the rest of the main cast was always really developed. I still hope to see a continuation some day.

In terms of the ecchi rom coms people mention often I always thought To love Ru never got mentioned as much as others. Maybe it's just me, but it always seemed to fly under the radar to a degree. Yet it's been one of the most long running and successful.

Seriously, I just wish Rito would realize that his true love is Lala not Haruna. Heck, I wish he would get frisky with Lala and have a family with her.

"Slightly risqué"? Only the unobservant would call it that.

Even better, he should just go for a harem. It’s actually brought up in the story so I don’t see what it can’t work.

Yabuki inconclusively ended the manga that he worked on for like 10+ years and now hasemi is doing something else. Not sure why he they still want to hold anniversarries.

Presumably there's still money to be made from it.

^

you sure about that sequel https://www.reddit.com/r/toloveru/comments/l115s4/official_translation_of_yabukis_afterward_in_the/ ?

The franchise feels like it is already disappearing from Japan ever since 2017 where it used to be so prominent and get featured all in the time on the cover of Jump Square

I'm happy one of the GOAT's is the getting his artwork shown off. I hope they won't hold back anything because its art.
