I find it a little questionable that Yuu went only with "I did something wrong" assumption. Of course the situation is a black box to him since Yami didn't say a single word to him, but he knows a little about her family situation and he also felt she was happy with him So why not consider...

I read that as Hikari starting to act more and more on her new feelings. Yeah, I was expecting that when this POV volume started. Maruto probably decided against it because the goal always was to cover the heartbreaks, and including extra stuff would overextend the spin-off. But this is again...

Thanks for the ping @Litreara. I too think that his decision to "no longer fall in love" more about retreating to his shell than emotional independence. Hikari started viewing him in a different light at the start of their first HS year, so either when he was still dating Yami or right after...

There's no indication yet that Hikari knows Yami did that with awareness of her presence. I wouldn't compare them because the circumstances are completely different,

Have you even read the tweet? It has nothing to do with self-insert.

I can relate, and as I said, I also dislike the trope. But since their feelings weren't mutual and since they already were friends who spent a lot of time together, maybe his decision to go for something major wasn't that unreasonable. It's just that he could've handled it much better.

I mean, she could just treat those as normal things friends do all the time. Because they are. And as the story makes clear, Hikari indeed was quite oblivious, because their past schoolmates all knew about Yuu's crush on her, but she didn't. I know "I need to impress her to make her notice me"...

But that's not the point, reread the chapter. His motivation was not to spend more time with Hikari, but to make it clear to her that he got into the school that's clearly out of his league to chase after her, that he doesn't see her just as a friend.

Thanks for the ping. We more or less knew his second heartbreak would be this. I like the chapter's ending, but I wish we also heard some of his thoughts on Yami. Though we definitely will next time, with the 3rd heartbreak chapter. From early chapters we knew that Hikari stopped regularly...

Thanks for the ping! I suspected that the first Yuu's heartbreak wouldn't be anything dramatic, that's why this chapter isn't really disappointing. And we got a confirmation of him not being completely naive and pure-minded, that's also something. But I'm still happy with the decision to make...

I highly doubt it, but if their commercial release goes well, who knows.

I know, it's just for anyone who comes here surprised that the series is on hiatus.

Maruto says this chapter was born out of certain someone's desire to draw a belly button. From their comments on Xitter my impression is that new chapters will start after the summer Comiket, so late August or September. MTL: The commercial versions (manga and LN) of the first volume are...

A lot of people are missing the main novel chapters too, which often have important details that manga version skips. It's no big deal, you can always reference something from the novel in discussions and link it just to show where it can be found. Sad that the guy who was translating novel...

Good decision from them I think. Kinda saves us from a long Yuu flashback in the (main) manga, while still covering their past and potentially explaining some of the first volume parts where we need Yuu's POV.

None of these are examples of "fun discussion". Dissing is not a discussion.

Manga that is fun to discuss -> fun manga. I don't know what makes it so hard to admit to some of you.

I don't know why you're so focused on that. We even saw Hikari's thoughts on this - she is sure he thought she was angry because of the broken promise, and he was just too shaken by the whole incident with Yami to notice smaller details. And don't forget that between that moment and the...

Because love can be a slightly more complicated feeling than just "if I love one person, I stop being in love with anyone else". This was already in the manga, like when Yami was thinking about Yuu's lingering feelings for his childhood friend. And you might need to accept that it can work this...

Because they both enjoyed each other's company, obviously. Like this is before they actually slept with each other: And yes, of course it was partly because he was giving up on Hikari after the failure with exams, but just as she said this chapter, he is not that type of person to go into it...
