If aka is self inserting here, he's self inserting as Nanto considering that apparently his favorite characters are Maki from kaguya, and kana from oshi no ko, pinnacle of self inflicted suffering.
Why did I feel like its the same as when roy mustang first talked to edward elric?
Even when they left lmao. When the girl asked that the boy looks like he wont do it, but then the man responds with, "Did it look like that to you?"
What beautiful magic indeed. For me to accidentally stumble upon this masterpiece.
P.S. if you're new to here and just decided to read the comments for some insight. It's a great manga.
I was waiting for a group of people to attack them. Didn't read the synopsis and the genre just straight up read the manga, and I was expecting it to be action lol. It was nice tho.
