I'm not seeing it.
The main character is adjusting pretty realistically, given the situation. It's the people around him, who don't seem to notice these major changes that are occurring over only a few days, in-comic, that have people here rolling their eyes. For which I can't much blame them.

The appeal, though, is that this is a very slow and drawn-out transformation. Even the longest sequences usually are only a dozen pictures or so. It is up to PART 26, now, and it'll go about that much more until it's complete. The first, oh, 5 parts didn't really have any transformation - they were setting up the situation, mostly - and it's a fair bet that it'll end (if not necessarily COMPLETE) earlier than the last part. But even if a full 1/2 the manga doesn't have any actual process and further change, that's still over 20 parts that will. That's an awful lot more than people usually get.

And, like I said, the main character's reactions are pretty good, even if his friends', family's, and doctor's are not.
