since Prez and Kaguya love already finished, we now have the new MC, Ishigami boi.

Tbh, his love is far more complicated than prez. For prez, booth of them already like each other, so it is just a matter of time and timing. However for Ishigami, it is more like a triangle love. Tsubame senpai is not so sure yet about her feeling, Iino feeling begin to bloom, and Ishigami who still fighting to be "worthy" of Tsubame-senpai (even though his feeling and sincerity already more than enough imo, just need to fix his appearance).

I think Ishigami will coupled with Iino as they are more fitting couple whom even though polar opposite, they support each other . Still, having Tsubame-senpai laso not a bad idea. I will wait how Aka-Sensei will serve this story.

@Nintendoomed89 Totally with you - i am surprised how the manga can be that good after so many chapters and with a lot of side characters that been introduced not long ago and feet so well in the story - this is truelly one of the greatest manga i've ever read

Will Iino ever stop being a bitch? She's becoming more and more annoying. IshiMaki when

Aka-sensei is a fantastic writer. The anime really showed this off, but at the start, the Prez-Kaguya-Fujiwara dynamic felt perfect. And then Ishigami entered the picture and it felt even more perfect. And then Iino did the same and there was more fun. And all the peripheral characters were interesting in their own right. For a solid 90 or so chapters, Maki was someone with nary a speaking line dubbed "Stalker-chan", and a good number of people, including myself, wanted more of her so badly. Continuity sticks, and there are epic foreshadowing hints sprinkled throughout.
The dude knows how to write.

Regarding reception...I find the disdain for Tsubame unreasonable because she's messed up in a really human way (not to mention thot is about as valid an insult as beta or gay at this point), but I did find Iino to be...pretty terrible.
She's more or less consistent, but I didn't like her personality much even before, and this time she's rubbing salt in the wound and doing outright emotional blackmail for petty reasons. That said, Icey wasn't much better (or rather, worse but somehow I was more okay with it), so I'm sure Aka-sensei has something amazing in mind for the ship.

@grandygon Justice for Maki

Didn't Iino just save Ishigami from being a pathetic dumbass who thinks it's a rad idea to take a free fall off a set of stairs?

I don't get the hate

Iino really is grown on me. The only character i can think of to compare is that one female teacher from watamote

You'd think of her as a simple stuck-up bitchy character, but remember that she is the first one to trust him at the middle school
While she is no saint either, she'd risked her life to save this bundle of depression
Her forcing him to be her servant like that, imo also a way to keep him close before he started to think about doing something stupid again

Iino isn't a complete bitch, she did go back for him. Her first thought after she broke her arm wasn't even about herself, but about Ishigami. I also think Tsubame hesitated not only because of college, but because of Ishigami's relationship with Iino, though she can't say that.

@IVVO not that small, if you put the four main Japanese islands inside the US, it would easily stretch from Canada to Mexico...

Didn't like Iino before and I can't say that this chapter helped with that at all.

I didn't actually hate Iino until this chapter.

She is now the actual worst character. Tsundere doesn't mix well with manipulative psycho.
