I'm pretty sure Erika-sensei is exactly like Miku. she'll go absolutely feral if sou-kun push her buttons :smugnako: sou-kun next chapter

Mr. Oblivious: ...wouldn't that make her even safer?

Sou, my boy, what's safe to say to your emotional onslaught (love confession) is that you just made a grown woman phase shift from 2D to the third dimension and that is a truly dangerous technique. Unless you want to marry her right away. Well, personally, I wouldn't mind to, she's hella cute and certainly will be extremely devoted, but as far as this series goes... how would I end this now legitimate self-caused trainwreck?

Probably a fire-alarm going off and a malfunctioning sprinkler system would shower Erika with cold water, cooling her off right where she stands (and leaving her even wetter than she already is, probably). In the ensueing chaos, there would be an excellent chance to get Ruri or the A-Team involved without even waiting for lunch break or afternoon disasters.

But who am I to tell Kissa about insanity.

Looking at the scrapped version, the author probably did not want to overplay the angle of "Sou showered the new girl with praise and then she broke".

Also, it's kinda rare that we got a character with purely good intention. Maybe keeping her that way instead of breaking her is more interesting. Erika-sensei's niche could be that she's always confused and taking Sou's whim as innocently as possible.

While I'm not personally tired of it yet, I can see where the author is coming from. This is the usual setup for one of the character exploding because they got showered with too much praise, and there just isn't much to make it distinct. It's even Hinata sort of playing the straight man again like she usually does.

And then the payoff for the joke is probably really hard to deal with and not worth it. Both in the family's reaction, the class's future behavior towards sensei, and us knowing even if something were to really 'happen', she would be be really really near the bottom of the totem pole in Sou's love interests.

It's already plenty funny for me but I appreciate an author's problem in both having something that fits your vision for the moment as well as not killing yourself down the line when you try to write out of it.

Someone already said as much in the comments of the revised version, but the problem with the original plot was that it didn't serve the class observation arc's purpose, that is, to let Sou continue to be a student of that school. The author kind of lost that thread.
