That girl said all the right things to the wrong person. He is the one who understands all of it, and so he made a move. She rejected. She is preaching to the choir. She should have said all of it to Mizudori, not him. He is not at fault in this situation AT ALL, but somehow it is his job to fix it? Wtf?
Except she said in this very chapter that she doesn't feel like Mizudori would actually hear what she has to say, because of how different their frames of mind are in what they prioritize.

She went to Aoba because she at least knows that Mizudori will listen to him, because she can see how important Aoba is in her life even beyond the relationship between their siblings.

Aoba reassures her in this chapter that, whatever her own thoughts, Mizudori does consider her an important person in her life.

But she came to Aoba. Because she felt that Aoba would be better equipped/positioned to get her message to the person who does needs it most.

And to be fair--Aoba needs to hear it, too, to get it fully internalized. He's guilty of the same thing Mizudori is; he just also happened to confess first, but he reiterates just how alike he is in this very chapter, about how he also sacrifices himself and his own happiness for the sake of his siblings.
He's simply slightly ahead of the curve, compared to Mizudori.

Grarghhhh

I hate the "children get the adults together" trope with every fiber, denatured protein and apoptotic cell of my being. Blood has been spilled for less.

Yea Mizudori is not going to listen unless Rei himself tells her to because he is number 1 for her, much to Aoba's and the reader's dismay.

With how things seem to be turning out right now, I won't even be happy if they get together. If she reciprocates his feeling because Rei told her it was "okay," that just wouldn't sit right with me. It would just feel half-assed and forced if she returned his feelings because of anything but her own independent decision and proactiveness. Doing it just because your little brother gave you the get-go is no way to start a relationship. The issue at its core is her way of thinking - it doesn't have to be one or the other, it doesn't have to be #1 and #2. The way she's handling the situation is ironically making her seem quite emotionless, her mindset rigid and systematic. If this fundamental problem isn't solved, any hastily developed relationship between them will only feel disingenuous.

I know it's fiction and she does loves him but calling him an idiot for distancing himself after getting rejected is just ridiculous. From his perspective she doesn't likes him the same way, what is he supposed to do? Suck up his feelings and keep hurting by trying to baby her feelings? That is way too much to expect from someone. Like I get that Mizudori is hurting but so is he.

Yes he hasn't made an effort to reconcile for the sake of their siblings but neither has she. Like at all. Even after he contacted here what did she do? Nothing.

Just to be clear I do understand why Kuwano would say the things she did, ultimately she is also ultimately a child but I don't know I like the implication from the author.

The thing is normally this would be quite a generic ghosting/shot down indeed hahahaha, but everyone around needs to try to fix it XD

Yeah, how dare you be able to take "No" for an answer! Can't be encouraging that kind of behavior! It was creepy and wrong when that other guy did it, but you're different! You're the protagonist!

It's a good thing the kindergarteners are on the case!
It's not about not taking "no" for answer, it's about them being distant fucking up with the whole "supporting each other with taking care of their little siblings", after the kids started treating each others almost like family.

Ends at ch38 and since I don't see "adaptation" in the tags does that mean it got axed?
I can see there are four volumes out there, but I can't find an English translation to know where it gets up to. However, I have read ahead to the end, and it does wrap up with a bow, so it leaves nothing hanging.
