Look I get that this is a revenge story but like, so much of the buildup has made the story feel like there would be a twist. We had several chapters of MC's thought bubbles turning progressively white even!
Hells, even the girl he wants to get revenge on has clearly grown as a person!
And...
Honestly I really love that this manga didn't beat around the bush too much. There's progress in some form basically every chapter, it's refreshing.
Don't get me wrong, that doesn't remove my enthusiasm for slow burn romance, but this is a nice change of pace.
