Default how come they're so short?

just out of curiosity. .why are there only few pages in a chapter?

don't get me wrong..i'm really thankful that the author made a continuation for PoT cuz i can't really watch the anime >< and also, thx for the scanner who spent the time to translate the scans

but..cuz of the few pages, i don't really get the story sometimes cuz it's like 3-4 stories in a 17 paged chapter..

i hope no one thinks badly of this..-,-

Don't worry, rest assured you're not the only one who thinks that.

Yeah, I'm pretty surprised by this myself. Considering that this is a monthly series, 12 pages (Ch. 16) is surprisingly short, even for Konomi. Although, now that I think about it, the original PoT had annoyingly short chapters. I kind of got tired following it, so I waited for the series to end before reading it.

Argh...12 pages with maybe 20 total speech bubbles...I kind of wish there was more to these past couple of chapters. Oh well, now the real story begins XD

Original PoT - 10-20 pages per chapter. Was released weekly, so usually there were about 12-16 pages per chapter (sometimes more sometimes less).

NEW PoT - still has about 10-20 pages per chapter, but Konomi-sensei likes to split up the chapters - there are multiple chapters in each release.. Basically, you still get about 40-60 pages per month, but it's split into chapters. The amount of manga hasn't really changed though. (maybe it's a bit less).

Argh. That looks hard to understand. It's no change in amount of pages per month, but they are only released once a month. And for some reason, he keeps splitting up the pages that are released into chapters.

not that I mind. I grateful for any tenipuri I can get.

I think the amount of pages in a chapter in PoT and Shin PoT are about the same.
But, PoT was released weekly [so, about 4 chapters per month], Shin PoT is released monthly [2 chapters]. So if my logic is correct, the amount of pages per moth has halved.
