It technically is netorare, but does not produce rage in the reader. The netorare is only used as a setup for the rest of the story and is over by page 5.
Ya I don't see the netorare in it when the guy gets to bang the other guy's girl when he is banging his. It is like the Netorare with the rare happy ending. Guy steals girl from main, so main goes ahead and bangs another girl. Which would be cool to see in a lot of other netorare.
Wow! I mean I was set to be pissed off, but by mid story I'm thinking THIS is getting GOOD! WTH, I hate NTR? But this was GOOD? He got her cherry and everything! Naw, this CAN'T be NTR! Stop fooling around, what was this really? NTR Lite?
If every ntr manga led the main character into deflowering a pretty girl that already had a thing for him then my guess is that there would be a heck of a lot more ntr fans.
The childhood friend and the other guy deserved to be f*cked over. As for the other two who got cheated and ntr'd on, they deserve each other. You could say that if it wasn't for the other two being complete *ssf*cks, they wouldn't have found each other and be in "true" love. I'd like to see this translated, just because of that fact.
Just wish we'd have a scene of the MC's childhood friend turning around and catching the new couple going at it. Would be nice to see some "childhood friend betrayal revenge" for once. I mean, judging by how she was pulling him along in the first page, it's pretty clear she liked him, too...it's pretty standard for childhood friends that actually like the MC to do that. So it'd be nice to see one in despair at seeing that he's not there to fall back on when her current fuck buddy eventually dumps her.
Also, with the last scene...would have loved to see how that played out when childhood friend tries to pull along MC like usual, only to have GF take her rightful place at his side.
