You may be onto something. Reread the chapter and Gotou was coping in the most horrible way possible. He never opened his eyes snd was showing a fucking forced smile while answering Shigemi's callouts. Then those panels when Shigemi's calling Gotou gross and disgusting while Gotou was still...
The 69th culture festival, huh? Super can't help himself with the horny brainrot. Everything revolves around sex.
Also, wtf Shigemi?? Seems Gotou being true to his desires is causing him to mount a harem without even wanting it. Or is it a classic case of "he wants something he can't have, i...
Very likely it fell on deaf ears. Gotou's reaction is giving me mindbreak vibes, hence why Shigemi's concerned reaction.
Festival arc will also be Gotou's self-imposed hikikomori cage arc and he won't leave from there unless the same Shige gives him some semblance of a hope spot or if Agawa...

1) escape forward and take revenge by...
Pretty much she already hates him if we consider the "all men are limp dicks" wasn't a misandristic remark, but an indirect towards Gotou.
Also Shigechi doesn't seem embarassed for hurting his feelings she felt disgusted at how unmanly he reacted at her remark.
But if she felt embarassed then...
For sure Gotou has a half assed epiphany... but then he gets thrown 100 m deep into the abyss by the new reveal. This is just a humilliation ritual at this point.
Inb4 Gotou becomes gay in retaliation and him and Inukai exchange seme and uke positions, with Agawa finding them.
At this point i...
Seems it's on purpose. Agawa had a "Bitch" (in japan, a bitch is less of a slut, and more of a shit person) shirt in one of the pre-retcon chapters and uses a spider/broken phonecase, showing she's a bad girl.
