ヒロイン失格 (Heroine Shikkaku)

Title: ヒロイン失格 (Heroine Shikkaku) also known as No Longer Heroine
Mangaka: 幸田日和 (Koda Momoko)
Current Status: Vol 1 (ongoing Chapter 6, serialized in Betsuma)

***
When i first came to know of this series i thought "Not another childhood friend unrequited love story again" thus i did not read until recently and i'm glad i did! i'm missing chapter 2 to 4 (Should be compiled in Vol. 1) as i only started buying Betsuma from issue 9 onwards as a result i had to read the synopsis in Betsuma and start reading from chapter 5 and am i lucky, i think Chapter 5 is the chapter where things starts to get interesting. It might not be a painful and unrequited love after all! In fact, i think this series is rather hilarious.

Synopsis/Summary:
Our heroine, Hiyori imagined herself to be a heroine of a love story with her childhood friend, Rita as the hero. Hiyori and Rita are not a couple even though she likes Rita but she does not have the courage to confess her love for him. She thought of confessing her love however things are just not so smooth sailing in reality. Rita is of course a bishie in the manga, popular and good looking. He had many relationship before but none were serious nor long lasting. Hiyori wonders if one fine day, it might be her turn to be Rita's girlfriend.

An unstylish girl who happens to be Hiyori's classmate appears in front of Rita and soon they become a couple! However, Rita's new relationship seems different! She is able to understand Rita unlike all his previous girlfriend and Rita too, seems serious about this new relationship. Upon seeing these, Hiyori thinks that she should give up her dream as a heroine.

***
The above is a very short summary which i believe summarised up to Chapter 4. Chapter 1 English scans was just released on 26th Sept by Anime-tion Scanlation as reflected on MangaUpdates. I don't know where to dl the scans as it hasn't been uploaded on to any online reading site as far as i know. I read Chapter 1 from Betusma official site where Chapter 1 (Japanese) is available for a trial read.

I might summarise this series if time permits ^^ from chapter 5 onwards... probably. I'm thinking of getting vol. 1 but cost and space are my concerns. Maybe i shall try my luck at some chinese sites. If anyone of you have Chapters 2 to 4, Mandrian or Japanese can you kindly share with me? hee.

Ankemaybe: o(^▽^)o I'll wait for your scans! Thank you so muchie! Have you read this series? Do you like it? The story is picking up and well paced, now i can't wait for chapter 7, ending of chapter 6 was abit of a cliffhanger.

I will summarise when i have time. ^^ This series is getting pretty good reviews here.

I read chapter 2 some months back but found it so so. Thus I did not continue with the rest of the chapters. Now that u mention that the story is picking up, I will read it again. ^^ Thanks for the recommendation. Will try to send the chapters to u asap. Apologise for slight delay cos I have to submit a few papers. Very busy...
