These are the kinds of issues that crop up when you write a story without paying any heed to balance and nuance. Both main characters are caricatures and it undermines any relationship drama to the point that the only way this will work out is if there's some ridiculous heel turn in their...
Still absolutely do not like the constant fixation on their exes. Actually, it's not even the MC really, all he did was ask her who the guy was, it's the FeMC who keeps bringing up the topic of their exes over and over and over again. I really do not like her.
You're just fishing for things to argue about at this point, those kinds of things clearly do not apply to Haimiya from what we've seen. She derives genuine enjoyment from the MC being there for her, and her pulling away is going to cause her to just fall back into the depressive state she was...
C'mon man, the nurse JUST got done saying that she's aware that the MC is the reason why Haimiya has been in a better mental state lately. Telling him to go visit her and just be there for her is absolutely what she should have just straight-out told him to do, but no, the author has to drama...
I hope they do. Knowing how the story ends and how genuinely awful it's been so far, it's not worth continuing. Biggest hate read I've had in a long time.
I've already spoiled myself who wins the bowl in the LN ending, and it's just... fitting. The only girl who I feel genuinely deserves to be happy is just routinely treated like absolute shit for the entire story, so I'm actually happy she isn't chosen. MC is just a genuinely awful and borderline...
Westermarck Effect is a very iffy theory to begin with. Either way, a simple childhood friend you don't live with would not be subject to this effect, it would only come into play if the childhood friend acted as a sibling and you started subconsciously viewing that CF as a sibling. Simply...
One of the only chapters I don't feel compelled to hate Hiromi, mostly due to how unbelievably pathetic the ex boyfriend is. Holy shit, he's revolting. Either way, this sure is a toasty trash fire.
Whenever I see LN/WN ads that end at stupid points like this one, it just makes me not want to read the source material whatsoever. If this is how it's going to be, it needs to be stated ahead of time.
I'll be surprised if it ever happens, MC is a total psychopath and is currently still not understanding (even though he did before) that Hanabi actually likes him. Like, I'm sorry you got bullied lil bro, but this girl got sex trafficked and you're just... meh. Even his new girl doesn't seem to...
It's extremely sad that everyone here is just assuming it's going to be the end of the story as soon as he confesses and she accepts. Not because you all are wrong, on the contrary, it's because that's almost guaranteed to be the case. I can count on one hand the number of writers I've seen keep...
Was this written by an actual middle school boy? MC is genuinely awful, and this is the absolute worst as far as power trip MCs go. And you just know for certain there are people out there who think this guy is hot shit and using him as a self-insert.
Not saying you're wrong anywhere in particular, but I do believe you're putting far more thought into this than the author is. From my point of view, it's just an endless stream of progress stalling, blue-balling, and jealousy baiting with respect to Agawa and Gotou. I get it's not the same...
