Amazing development from both the MC and usagihara, glad to see that she doesn't see him like she did back in earlier chapter :meguu:
And we've got a new ship sailing this chapter, let's goooooo

I cannot unsee Takaya's height difference with Usagihara's constantly changing. In one panel, he's a head taller. In others, he's maybe 10 cm taller, and in one panel they're almost similar due to her leaning forward but maintaining the same gap. Even if you account for him slouching, it's changing way too much. Maybe it's the terrain of the street?

She also held her hair that same way at the end of chapter 17.5
Not sure about other chapters but this chapter, some of the reasons are probably perspectives or what angle we’re looking at them which gives of the illusion that he’s taller or she’s shorter

Now I am thinking about their names.
Usagihara has rabbit in her name, and nekozake has cat, so Seno has dog in his name, somehow?

The author could have easily taken the easy way out and had Momo fall in love with Seno to create drama. Instead, she creates two people where there's tension because of the FMC at first (at least one sided) but through that connection, they develop their own kinship and understanding from being open about themselves, and accepting each other and move forward without any romantic undertones. It's so rare to see these platonic interactions between a guy and girl that doesn't immediately equate to romance but it's so refreshing when it's done right!

As charming as the main couple can be (and the reason why we're all here), sometimes we need that change of pace with another pairing. Momo and Takada barely met (if Takada or Momo will actually recognize their actual first meeting) but gosh, I am already heads over heels with their dynamic. The observant yet teasing (instigator/triggered), being completely open with each other in a heartbeat. I hope Akinoko releases more snippets or even full chapters about their development since they got me hook, line, and sinker!
