*long, frustrated sigh* I didn't want to give this volume one star. I was seriously considering giving it two because I just really enjoy this series, but the more I thought about it the more I knew that a two star rating wasn't fair. This volume is easily the worst in the series so far and it is making me question whether I want to continue with it or not. I'll discuss my thoughts on that later, for now let's dive into what is going to be a long, ranty review. *sigh* Let's get this over with.
There are two main issues that I had with this volume: It wasn't funny and there was way too much fan service. Because I have more to talk about with the latter, let's talk about the ABSOLUTELY INSANE AND UNNECESSARY AMOUNT OF FAN SERVICE IN THIS VOLUME.
Guys, I knew this was going to be a fan service-y manga from the get-go. Once the introduced the harem element, I knew fan service was going to tag along whether I wanted it to or not. I have nothing against fan service. I have nothing against harems. I have EVERYTHING AGAINST fan service harems that waste my time and are a nuisance more than a bonus. I'll get the easy point out of the way-the fan service was overdone (There were only two chapters out of NINE that had none in it) and it wasn't appealing. If it's not appealing and it's way overdone, it's not going to hold my interest. And when ALMOST EVERY SINGLE FUCKING CHAPTER has fan service in it, it gets old REALLY FUCKING FAST. With that basic overview out of the way, shall we discuss details? Of course we should!
Kirisu sensei. WHY. THE FUCK. WAS SHE IN THIS VOLUME SO DAMN MUCH?! It's summer break and they're at cram school, how the FUCK does she keep popping up?! And this is the THIRD VOLUME that had her prominently shown when they're on summer break! The main reason why I bring her up, though, is that JUST LIKE those previous two volumes, Kirisu sensei ends up in awkward, perverted situations with Yuiga AND IT NEEDS TO FUCKING STOP. For fuck's sake, she is his TEACHER! Why is Tsutsui so fucking hell-bent on making her a part of the harem?! SHE. IS. HIS. FUCKING. TEACHER! And no, I'm not going to drop this until Tsutsui drops this disgusting concept. And why, pray tell, is her ass on prominent display in most of her panels and WHY THE FUCK DID SHE HAVE TO GRAB YUIGA AFTER STEPPING ON A SEA CUCUMBER WITHOUT A BIKINI TOP ON?! Oh yeah, quick side note, there's a beach chapter AND a hot spring/outdoor bath chapter the latter right after the former. Two cliches for the price of one, I suppose.
And what exactly do these awkward scenes with Kirisu sensei actually accomplish? Kirisu seems to think more of Yuiga after the talk on the beach, but really nothing else besides that. Oh, and fuck Miharu. Seriously, she needs to fuck off wherever she came because she was super fucking annoying and I hate her. As an added bonus, take a shot EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. She says "big sis" or "big sister". You'll be wasted and the rest of the volume will seem tolerable, so that's a plus I guess.
The rest of the fan service sans Kirisu sensei was about as generic and uninteresting as you can get, especially when, again, you've been reading it for multiple chapters with only short interludes of calm to break up the obnoxious amount of fan service. That's all I want to say about that, let's move on.
The other big issue I had, as previously mentioned, was that this volume was just not funny. Most of the jokes or gags were coupled with the fan service so the jokes/gags were either super predictable or uninteresting. I will say, I enjoyed the chapter where everyone was confusing test scores with bra sizes, that was actually pretty funny. But that was the only funny thing/chapter in the entire volume because most of the volume was a). The girls trying to get closer to Yuiga (more on that in a bit), b). Fan service, c). Yuiga being dense/stupid, or d). All of the above. It just wasn't interesting and the jokes/gags got old REALLY FAST.
Going off of what I said about the girls, am I the only one who thinks that the series is getting less interesting the more they try to pursue him? Maybe it's just me, but this volume pretty much showed how boring this series is when the main conflict is awkward perverted moments with the girls or the girls simply wanting to get closer to Yuiga. What happened to Rizu having to use her old glasses and squinting so much people thought she was glaring? Or Rizu being scared of being alone because she saw a scary movie? Or hell, the time Uruka forgot her bra and had to play basketball bra-less? I loved all of these scenarios and while all of them had romantic undertones they were still funny ON THEIR OWN. Granted, the last two volumes had more fan service and romance in them, but there were chapters that dealt with simple topics that stood on their own. And that, my good people, is what leads me to my final thoughts and concerns regarding this series.
I am honestly considering dropping this series and I can't tell you how sad that thought makes me. I know this isn't the best series ever and that I probably won't lose anything by dropping it, but up until this volume I have LOVED this series. Despite what a lot of my reviews may make you think, I don't enjoy dropping series. I drop series only if I think that it isn't worth continuing and since I have to buy my manga since most libraries don't have the series I follow, I have to decide so that I'm not wasting money on something that ultimately wasn't worth it. And that's the thing: to me, this series is definitely worth continuing because there's so much that I enjoy, but if the series is going to continue like this volume, I am not going to waste my time and money on it. As of right now, I have pre-ordered volume 7, which will be released in early December. Since I already pre-ordered it, I will hold off on dropping this series until I have read volume 7. However, if I get the feeling that this series is going downhill (in my opinion) then I'm dropping it. I hope that I don't have to, but it's a possibility.
Thank you for coming to my ranty-ass talk, have a good day.

Volume notes:
This is a very "breasty" volume. 4 stars.
Series review:
"We Never Learn" or #BokuBen is a comedy manga that draws its laughs from the interactions of the main character Yuiga with his harem, I mean, his classmates Fumino, Ogata, and Uruka. He tutors them, with a college scholarship on the line for him. There are also two other supporting characters in the periphery, teacher Kirasu, and recent alum Asumi, whose orbits sometimes cross into the paths of the main cast. It has the usual pervy tropes found in manga of its ilk, although toned down because of the high school setting. It was a manga I did not expect to enjoy as much as I did. It gave me that "finale high" which I associate with stories that get me as a reader.
One reason I probably enjoyed this series is the earnestness of the main character. One can't help but cheer for him. He's a good guy and hopelessly clueless sometimes, which is main component of his charm.
My rating for the entire series is 4 stars.

I'm really digging this series. Such adorable girls.
Sensei is such a nice guy too. He's committed to making sure the girls all pass, & of course he always is willing to help his senpai & his sensei, both of whom are totally adorable, too. Yet another manga that brings back such fond memories of my school days. I was the boy that all the girls loved in grade school. I always helped the girls, helped with homework & studying, stood up for them when other boys bullied them, & whenever any event came up of boys vs girls, I always volunteered to be on the girl's side. While all the other boys would run away yelling about cooties, I went right up to the girls, all big as Ike. I felt it wasn't fair for the boys to always come out on top. So, the girls adored me, & it continued from grade school all the way through uni. Our lad is the same way. Such a good guy. And surrounded by beautiful gals, he's the envy of all the male students. He's willing to do anything necessary to protect his girls. He loves them, after all. He sees himself as not just their tutor & helper, but also their protector & guardian. I just can't get enough of this series. Art, very good. Dialogue, very good, very realistic. Characters, believable, likeable, & relatable.

5/5 Best volume yet though my intentions aren’t entirely pure as there large chunks of the volume taking place at the beach and a hot springs school retreat. Typical Shonen Harem shenanigans ensues and I’m here for every moment of it. We are also introduced to Kirisu Sensei’s intense sister. Obviously another gorgeous lady. No ugly people in manga dontcha know.
Rizu, Fumino, Uruka, and Asumi in the hot springs on the cover of volume 6.

2.5 stars. Unfortunately, I think it's time for me to give up on this manga-- it started out promising, but now it's mostly fanservice with all the girls having the hots for the male character. Not my kind of manga.

Non è proprio il mio genere preferito però continuo a leggerla.
Le situazione cominciano a essere un po' ripetitive e mi chiedo come si possa arrivare a più di dieci volumi se la storia non procede in nessun modo.
Vorrei più scene con Fumino, però...

This was another pretty good one,with beach hijinks and yet another hot springs dilemma during a study retreat. The art is cute and the jokes are kinda funny, if some are a little more SMH. Overall, I'm enjoying this and like the characters so far.

Ogata wearing that head mask thing and then trying to drink through the straw had me laughing out loud hysterically. This manga is one of the funniest manga I’ve ever read and I’ve read plenty. An easy 5 stars!

“ Ma in sostanza se non ci fossi stato io, lei si sarebbe trovato in un bel pantano”
In questo volume vediamo un ulteriore avvicinamento da parte del ragazze da parte di Yuiga e cosi vediamo un ulteriore passi in avanti per quanto riguarda il cambiamento di un personaggio come Ogata che da blocco di ghiaccio qual era adesso da sfogo a tutta la sua caratterizzazione e la vediamo sia nell'episodio dell'equivoco tra le misure del seno e il risultato del test o quando non riesce a guardare in faccia Yuiga nell'episodio dove per sbaglio si taglia la frangia troppo corta. In questo volume conosciamo anche la sorella della professoressa Kirisu, una ragazza famosa nel pattinaggio che vi è entrata per seguire le orme della sorella è contrariata del suo ritorno, ma soprattutto essendosi formata in una scuola femminile, con Yuiga non riesce a reggere e vedendo una certa intesa con Kirisu crede che la sorella abbia una relazione clandestina con il suo alunno creando situazioni al limite dell'assurdo; ma non è l'unico che cambia anche Uruka e Asumi subiscono un cambio di rotta nel proprio carattere ed è Yuiga che la scuote e passo per passo le cambia, la prima cotta di Yuiga, la Seconda ( Asumi) colpita da alcuni comportamenti del ragazzo da destabilizzarla anche se lui è molto più piccolo di lei. Anche questo volume si conferma abbastanza carino e continuo con le gag che fanno davvero sbellicare, anche in questo volume di approfondimenti sul tema principale non ce ne sono anche se si scopre Perchè il protagonista è cosi e questa rivelazione dopo sei volumi.
Volume : 7/10

Shenanigans galore with plenty of misunderstandings that lead to hilarious situations...and lots of skimpy/provocative/sexy art of half naked girls/women.
Basically a good, for fun read with only a little seriousness.
This series has 21 volumes.

This was not as good as volumes 4 and 5, but good enough so that I'll read on after I buy the next few volumes. The best chapter reminds me that men are clueless about a women's appearance.
