It's definitely melodramatic like a soap opera, yeah. I do appreciate Tei getting more of character agency; she is the one who wants to comfort this person and reconnects with her desire to be an actress. I hope the mention about her being a director is actual foreshadowing.

It's still skeevy to use your friends' bodies for clicks on social media, especially because Chii seemingly wants to be an influencer (not a photographer or videographer, for instance, where her posing their bodies is more out of a sense of wanting to capture their aesthetics or beauty), but at...

This entire arc I've been wondering if there's meant to be a real world political reference I'm just not getting here.

Right, yes. Like, just on its own removed from the context of the other couples if the manga was "about this," I'd probably like a growth story of someone being extremely immature and insecure about her place in the world. but that's more or less Ana's character arc done worse. Ana started as...

Aw, I hope Qianmo finds her inner baddie and realizes Ludwig is trash. She's actually cute and sweet. She just needs to not throw herself after trash men.

Yeah, exactly. As some other commenters have pointed out, she's definitely displaying deflective actions with food and general wishy-washy flippant attitudes. But on the other hand, she just doesn't seem interested in romantic love. And developing that with Tokio who likes her seemingly...

Right. It feels so one-sided compared to the mutual respect and growing affection for the other two couples. Like. This chick doesn't seem like someone who is emotionally ready for a relationship, let alone developing a crush on someone. Why does he like her? Because she's Always Been There...

I love manga about Japan itself because it reveals so much about the author's own thoughts and biases. It's sort of fascinating at a meta level how wildly Oishinbo gets sometimes. Akumetsu is another good one where essentially you're reading the manga equivalent of a John Galt speech.

Very into what Akkun is bringing.

Fuck yeah I love a couple that just clicks and you can really feel their chemistry! Surprisingly, I think a lot of romance manga doesn't focus on characters truly connecting with one another—they're just in love because the plot demands it. But this author is always focusing on the why each...

Fuck yeah, thank you so much for continuing!

i choose to believe the true (delulu) ending is a poly throuple. this is my truth.

Average night in Miami Beach.

Honestly, with how the ex-girlfriend thing wrapped up I'm more inclined to give this manga grace. I think it's becoming a story where someone who used to have no self-confidence gains it in small ways. I was surprised that he's already acknowledging the manager's answers were deflective. the...
