It is but will he is the question? That's why it hasn't happened at this point. We don't even know if sakura has said to fuckboi I love you at all ever. I'm leaning twords no.
Probably a big no for me on the fucboiXSakura thing. There is no way their conversation in 134 goes like that if they've reached those levels of intimacy even if fucboi is bad at romance or the topic of the conversation is one they don't like.

Do women really think like that at all?
You'd be surprised. When some women are an emotional mess and hear just what they want to hear. It's like.. a neuron activation for them.

Sakura was told what she wanted to hear. Granted she wasn't willing at first but we know how she gets when she cums. That pleasure then takes more control then her mental state.

It's like when you boys have a long day and instead of sex you just want someone to hug and give pats while saying "good work today". It does things to you.

He talked to her well at her like a narcissist would sense I am in fact a light one or should I say recovering one that's what he was doing.

I think it's because she thinks sakura would do those roles just for shionbu she isn't thinking about how he feels about it which is worrisome.
That concern could be resolved quite easily if Shinobu simply explained the real reason he doesn't want Fumi to take the role. The panel showing how uneasy he felt watching Fumi being physically intimate with someone else during the performance already makes his feelings pretty clear.

And if he overheard Fumi mentioning Sakura, I think that would make him even more likely to give Fumi a clear answer. He wouldn't want to repeat what happened with Sakura, when he assumed she would understand everything once they had the chance to talk things through, only for her to leave with nothing more than a message on LINE.

This is my guess as well. I think he will tell the producer he doesn't want the scene.
Would be funny if this gets him sacked as director and cuts off his connection with Fumi because his movie right now needs a new appeal and the sex scene is the only plausible solution outside of using actor doubles. Then this is where Sakura comes in ig but feels a bit too messy for just two chapters to flesh out properly, maybe doable, just my opinion and I'm no mangaka.

It's out of character for him to just tell her no like that he prioritized sakura's feelings over his own it's normal for him to do it with fumi as well and he did tell her he didn't want her to do it albeit indirectly.

Do you want the worst happen to Shinobu?

Maybe his solution is talk to the producer about change the scene because he is probable in front of the office building to discuss with the producer.
I think it's unlikely that Shinobu will meet the producer right away. Considering Japanese workplace culture, he would probably revise the screenplay first before presenting it to the producer, since having a concrete alternative would give him a much better chance of persuading them.

Things are going to be condensed I think in the next two or three chapters.

The worst has already happened. Time for the reunion with Sakura, also someone made a good catch that Shinobu actually didn't hear Fumi when she brought up Sakura's, so it's more of a half red flag but still pretty self-destructive for Fumi's chances.

I noticed that after rereading the chapter that he didn't hear her say that so he doesn't know she is comparing herself to what sakura would do granted sakura would take the role and fuck the guy on accident for shionbu.

I don't think any level of revision will add the appeal that the producer is looking for. The alternative is to bring in an actor double for the filming.
I'm going to die of laughter if mio almost hits him with her car and that's how they meet again. I can see him walking across the street deep in thought not paying attention.
now that's the rom-com we've been missing out on tbh, man I wish you were writing this when your closet self shows like this.

three would be nice, but I'm almost certain we only get two more chapters sadly.

I don't mean that he should yell at Fumi. I just mean that he should honestly tell her how he felt when he imagined her performing that scene with someone else.

This I feel makes it worse, because Shinobu is now unaware of some of Fumi's insecurities just like how it was with Sakura. Only we don't know if they officially dating.

I meant to say tell her sorry the y is next to the t there.
I can see that happening it would be a nice comedy moment.

I would be one hell of a funny moment that would con out of left field.
