I really love how not dragged out this was. She confessed, he rejected her, then handled the aftermath maturely and thoughtfully to be considerate of her while also making sure she had a friend to support her.

I know this is technically a shounen manga but it's moments like that that remind me the author is a shoujo/josei mangaka at heart and keeps that energy in this, which is part of what makes it feel interesting to read.

I think what he did was good personally. She did not need to be left alone in that state, and he could tell she was just pretending to be okay. She needed someone to talk to and vent to.
I 100% agree. He just flexed once more how he's a green flag by letting Kusunoki know her friend needed her without saying anything. Guy has more social awareness than most adults.

Our tomboy girl lost with her head held high. Way better than drag this love uncertainties for 200+ chapters (I am seeing you Medaka Kuroiwa and Mona-chan) and get nothing out of it.

Both Keisuke and Kusunoki now have to dance around their awkwardness and be together on a snek-free ending.

I look forward to snek-free ending.

That was well done and good to get out of the way because everyone knew Otobe had no chance. It looks like we might be in the end game now though if MC is already open about his misguided feelings for Kusunoki. It is a bit confusing to see where the series will go now since Hebikawa is the main draw and not really sure what the author is doing with her now. Ending this series and starting up a Snek spinoff might be the way to go!! 🐍

Thank you for translating. If anyone’s confused why the other one has more comments it was the one posted to Reddit this week

Keisuke's feelings for Kusunoki aren't 'misguided' that's not how feelings work, I doubt Hebikawa will get a spin off series, she's not really impressive enough to get one.
