Another reminder that a lesser story would have made Ryo a pointless love rival when there's already too much lead for Akane and Ijichi. Love that she's been along a great fan of the ships and rooting for their happiness

Sorry my goat, I fell for you 🙌

Ah, Ryo is a gem. She should be paid for the double duty she's pulling to push our dense MC forward. Sometimes you need someone who likes you a little less and is willing to point out the obvious no one else is. Especially if it's a major flaw that's preventing you from moving forward. Being so scared of ruffling feathers that you intentionally hold yourself back isn't good either. I mean heck, that's how you get incels. People who suppress all their urges and start letting them out in the most unhealthy ways that harm others when it gets to be too much. Expressing yourself healthily, taking risks, and forming real connections with people you trust are all important to a healthy life.

Easy for her to say; all any girl would have to do is say 'He makes me feel uncomfortable' and his life is ruined,
Who hurt you?

Anyway, maybe if he continued to have kept to himself and no one in class knew him. That's also why you need to to take chances, put yourself out there, and try to get to know others. You're far more vulnerable to social assassination by bad actors when you don't have a support group to rely on or any other social connections in your shared space. As is it's not just our two female leads who like him, it's their parents & siblings (well neighborhood little girl that's like sister) as well as the classmates. Ryo herself just said she's in Seo's corner and would take ACTION if someone treated him unfairly.

If he's just told to stop or that he's making someone feel uncomfortable, then he just stops. That doesn't ruin anyone's reputation. Definitely not their life. What you seem to be concerned about is someone starting rumors about him and it blowing up into a whole social execution thing. Umm, yeah that doesn't usually happen. Again even if it were to that's why you don't make yourself an outcast with no friends whom no one trusts or is willing to take the side of. Humans are social creatures. Everyone needs at least their own support group and you find once you have one a lot of these fears aren't so terrifying.

They're not exactly  wrong unfortunately. Been plenty of stories where a woman makes something up about a guy and everyone immediately assumes he's guilty. Hell, there was one where a guy got sent to prison for, like, a decade or so because a girl falsely accused him of SA until eventually, I believe she finally admitted she made it up.

I've also seen videos where a girl can be harassing a guy repeatedly, even smacking him, and when he finally smacked her back, she drops to the ground, crying, and suddenly the guy gets swarmed by a bunch of other guys

Hooray for confidence!!! 2 hoorays for ryo!!! And 3 for minion no.1!!!:win:

I kinda get him though, when you're a teen who's been a social recluse for most of your life being exposed to this whole new group of people who actually care about you and think of you as a friend will probably make alter your mindset in someway. So I think it's pretty reasonable he's unnecessarily walking around eggshells because he's scared of something changing.

Also teens on the regular think in stupid ways and it's all apart of growing up

What a complete lack of empathy or understanding on display here.

Was Ryo-san always half a head taller than Seo? And that genuine smile at the end 🥲 I'll take her if Minion No. 1 doesn't.

Honestly this chapter really brushes up against so many things that it's like hitting the tip of the ice berg... And it does give Seo so much more depth cause goddamn do I get it.

Otaku being on the subcultural end where it can be frowned upon, especially if it's more on the degenerate side. The background in itself of how maleness can be seen in a toxic & harmful way, and that making you conscious of how you can view yourself around others; To not be the creep, basically. And I'd imagine Seo is too conscious of that connotation to realize that he isn't the stereotype. And what he does need then, which is what the chapter gives him, is a reality check that the people around him don't see him in that kind of light, and that they see him for who he is. He's valid to them, and for anyone who sees him at a glance as harmful is getting a forehead flick. The manga has done the work to lead up to saying that— he really is a standup guy.
