Most likely. From Kurumi's side of things, she could be angry at Kokoro over things she kept quiet about before. There's also the lingering issue of what Kokoro did with Naoi's letter and telling Naoi to stay away from Kurumi without Kurumi's knowledge. This issue wasn't dropped, since Naoi's...
Given how lax her grandmother seemed and how her mom has essentially checked out of Kurumi's life, she might only get a phone at the end of summer. Only way she'd get one sooner would be to get a part-time job herself.
Besides her mother giving up after being ignored, the missing phone seems to...
Good points, but it's possible that the manga simply skipped showing Naoi paying as a way to keep up the dramatic tension of Naoi dragging Kurumi to the hotel room. As for Naoi not having money, it all depends on if she lied to her father and held so much money back from him.
One theory I've...
Possibly, as there are some abandoned love hotels in Japan. But as that would be very unsafe, it's also possible that it's just a particularly trashy hotel that Naoi picked because her dad took most of her money.
It's definitely a seedy place. There's cracks all over the walls and the room they're in had a framed painting or old window just sitting propped up against the wall next to the bed.
For the end of the chapter, I wonder if chapter 5.5 was foreshadowing this. "Let's go to a hotel together right now and cause a huge scandal!" It's possible someone saw them enter the hotel or might see them leave it.
And next chapter could be Naoi's backstory where she tries to really get...
I've wondered about this possibility. It might just be extreme jealousy combined with low self-esteem on Isanuma's part. Plus, the teacher pretends to be everyone's best friend when he's at school, so it's possible that Isanuma views him as a source of comfort.
It'd be interesting to see how...
I'm not sure what to expect of Kokoro at this point since her interactions with Akane in chapter 11. Chapter 9 already had Kokoro starting to show annoyance with Kurumi not living up to her idealized version. And then the classroom incident happens and Kokoro is forced to face the fact that...
It is grammatically correct the way it is, but I suppose "Since I'm keeping her hitting me quiet from my parents, you promised we could go on a date." would be a bit clearer that Isanuma is only keeping quiet in order to buy a date with the teacher.
Well, everyone's so used to doormat Kurumi that they didn't expect her to call everyone else out. Though things could get more interesting from here. Kurumi was basically loitering out at night in her school uniform. Possibly could be mistaken for schoolgirl prostitution. And she may have just...
Summer vacation looks like it's leading to major relationship changes all around.
Kurumi's going through serious development. She's being more observant of others and their motives. She's being more assertive in her interactions with other people. And she's experiencing new feelings, like when...
She may have been talking about when she told him to kill himself and shamed him for being an otaku.
His 2D imagination girl reflects his own thoughts about the real girl, calling her an "attention seeker" and even basically said the real girl's body was gross to look at. The reveal that she...
I wondered about that possibility, but the woman looks dressed kind of young. Maybe Naoi's mother got married really young? A teen mom maybe?
Edit: Naoi's dad said "they" got up and left, so maybe it could be Naoi's older sister or something.
