Man as far as I've learned in these comments every new character just gets cracked pretty soon after their intro. You're also right this fucking convo could've been had chapters ago but man would rather have them fuck.Is Shigemi just playing? It seems like she is pushing Agawa a bit to make her question her feelings/thoughts. It was nice that she mentioned what happened to him because of her. But did Shigechi really caught interest ?
Takeda could have left the new character out and start with this conversation in my opinion.
