You mean she should say that when he was right next to her?

Since we want to play this game, she told that in private when nobody else was around, she did that because in the next chapter she says at the same time, its to giver her a push but if she doesnt act, someone will take him ... like her, that means she is willing to give her "rival" a push but still hopes he picks her.

What other locations? either he wouldnt be present or she wouldnt engage in this conversation, its a "overhearing" cliche I seen many times before, you rather it was in a hot springs? but then we would get into the argument about if she would say anything if there was a chance of him overhearing and there wouldnt be at the very least for the part she talked to herself.

Also we seen again and again, hot baths and springs are common used for socializing so there is nothing strange about this, its all about some people not liking the place for reasons, you rather nothing happened at all? I will say there is a rather interesting bomb dropped at the end of next chapter that kinda explains why this taken place before it.
The scene could happen literally anywhere, any time they don't realize he's there. That could be anywhere. There's absolutely no reason to set the scene specifically in a bathhouse other than a stupid "lucky pervert" cliche for pathetic gooners.

Here's just one example that you could have probably thought of yourself if you bothered to try harder than the author: empty classroom after school. Same scene, no tits necessary. Easy.

I'm starting to feel like you're being deliberately obtuse, so I'm not going to bother trying to explain this extremely simple thing to you any further.

Came here to say this!

He heard their voices ahead of time, and they are still in the changing room so he could not have seen anything yet.
All he would have to do was explain it.

Is it a Japan culture thing? I know they avoid complaining and drawing attention even when being harassed, which led to Johnny Somali thinking himself so untouchable until South Korea fucked him over.
He got fucked over for entirely different reason

Wtf.. the most obvious thing to do is to call out and say "Hey I'm in here!"

There's no reason to hide or escape if you've done nothing wrong.

My problem with the cliche is the cowardly lampshading. Calling out your stupid cliche only draws attention to it. If he had just jumped immediately to some insane conclusion like “I’m the Hero, I can just slow my metabolism to a crawl and hide underwater from 30 minutes,” complete with some underwater-yet-mountaintop zen meditation imagery I would have been amused.

Authors, if you want to include some stupid cliche because you think it would be fun, then embrace it. Don’t half-ass it, don’t wink at the audience. Just go for it without reservation and have fun.

I agree. I hate it when media tries to act smarter-than-the-rest by being irony poisoned or smugly pointing out "haha wow this is such a cliche"

yeah? don't fuckin write it then. try to genuinely do something thought out, and remove all the shame in your heart. it's okay, lean into the genres and lean hard with sincerity.

relevant post (ss of a Tumblr on bsky that I can't find the original of; outside of quote reblogs)

Ooor you could just shout at them telling them you made a mistake the second you heard them and ask them to covere themselves and let him leave ya fuckin numpty

Also I’ve read isekai trash more compelling than this but then again I’m a sucker for harem and power systems and the glory of building a base and subordinates nothing better than establishing a cold brutal galactic empire filthy rebels…..

It just feels like the fantasy aspect is lacking and the romance isn’t really there either or maybe it’s the art cause sometimes good arc can evoke the emotion that a translation or writing can’t

"that would be a manga cliche!"
*Does it anyway
The fact that the author went out of his way to call it out just pisses me off more.
Especially since we were consistently shown that this guy is older, composed, doesn't freak out, and he's even been good at coming up with quick lies to explain awkward situations.
