It seems to be a common thing among serialized web mangas about childhood friends, the editors always push for some useless drama, secondary characters, and some love rival even when it was the relationship between the main characters that made it popular in the first place.
Japan is just chock full of NTR freaks.

I don't think there's actually any drama, except for what's in people's heads. Granted, Tsugumi and Ibuki have great chemistry, but that can be just as friends as well. And from characters perspective: Ibuki is clearly in love with Tomo, for better and worse, and Tsugumi just spelled out that "bros before hoes" and that being accused of taking his friend's girlfriend is a major trauma to him - other than him falling for her, there is nothing pointing to him ever acting up on it.

If anything, he's an unfortunate character, because he's a good guy who works well with a girl, but they obviously won't be getting together unless she moves on from Tomo.

And with how dense Tomo is, he needs those levels of triggers to start doing something. AFAIK, we've seen no movement from him until he started to get jealous and tried to figure out what those feelings are. The only thing I'm worried about now is if Tomo, the dumbass, won't decide to start pushing Tsugumi and Ibuki together, because he feels bad for him, and he's such a people pleaser.

Everyone is saying that Tomo thought he's cucked when all I see is that he's embarrassed that he felt jealous over the guy

Dude explains that he got his friendship broken from a guy because of a girl, and he also yells "bros before hoes"

I can easily see it as Tomo feeling bad that he felt the dude's stealing Ibuki from him when he got trauma from something similar to the current situation Tomo is feeling

We just LOOOOOVE seeing the male mc spend time with another girl and the female mc with another guy. Pure KINO. Absolute CINEMA. This manga will sell like hotcakes and there is nothing you haters can do about it!!!

Maybe that's because they've been non-stop together since he arrived and almost zero interaction between the two main characters. DUH!
And it should continue that way. Even before that Tomo and Ibuki together was trash. When this guy came in the manga it brought life to it. But it’s a shame since he’s not the MC and probably won’t get to win if the love triangle proceeds. He’s a way better match than Tomo wimp ass

Both actually interact few times ....but 0% on even trying to solve misunderstanding between 3rd wheel char

Well..yeah ...this mangaka likely going milk this round and round situation for another 10-30 chapter more
Famous last words: It could not be worse than Kanokari... Right? Right???

I actually just remember to talk about this

Tsumugi flashback like want show pity at him ...but what happen between he and his old fren literally the same repeating with what he do towards ibuki and tomo

Since he appears ... ibuki have been always together with him only...and he also always glued with her

Ibuki notice tomo in conflict also but not even bother want approach him like what she do at tsumugi ,and choose to be at tsumugi side instead

So yeah ...since tsumugi make appearances...Tomo have been no.2 for ibuki ...the only difference it's ibuki still can't physically touching tsumugi while tsumugi can go all physical touch with her

No. Buckle up for a love triangle.
to simply put ....

Tomo didn't hear anything that tsumugi shout ...

Then later Tomo hugging ibuki and then asking if she free for next day off and ask to go out alone

Then in bus scene ...tsumugi sitting with other guy b4 tomo ask that guy to switch seat with him ...

And he tell tsumugi that he will go out alone with ibuki on that day ...
