@JuliusCV Also this is originally japanese so some nuance to the sentence may have been lost because of it.

Like a phrase with two meanings but in english it may translate to something cut and dry.

The manga has done a good job of raising Tadano up in the story. It's been a while but at the beginning everyone hated Tadano's guts just for being near Komi. This is honestly just another hurdle for him.

"No, I don't think I do" LIKE BRUH COME ON

Maybe I could've been okay if "love" was used, but "like" was used COME ON BRUH

The foreshadowing of the drama in a NOT near future is going to KILL US ALL.

I just think he's scared. He's made great progress in befriending Komi and Manbagu, and I could totally see him locking away his affection to save himself from ruining these relationships.

@LegionGuy49 Don't try justify that, one thing is acknowledging that Komi or her MIGHT like him and something completely different is he loving one, in other words, thinking that his love is one sided would be totally a Tadano thing to think... But saying he doesn't like anyone ? this was a mistake, is just to make drama.

@bastek66 - Tadano may know his feelings well enough, but it doesn't mean he is going to tell them to a person who isn't his close friend, right? Especially if it's a girl.
Lying a lot is a major part of Japanese politeness.

I'm so glad this manga is trying to show proper pet care, but as your resident fish nerd I must add some of my own comments to Tadano's advice:

Goldfish actually get huge and live for decades with proper care, so they aren't easy pets. So many people get bad advice when sold fish as pets so it's sadly a common misconception that they just live in bowls... To really thrive goldfish should have at least 10 gallons(38L) of water per inch of body length, so a bowl is never an appropriate home for one.
He is right about the dechlorinator and the water needing to be oxygenated though. Some toxins in water don't just evaporate from letting it sit out, so using water conditioner drops every time you change the water is necessary to remove chlorine and other bad things. And goldfish need a lot of oxygen so a bubbler/pump will help, but what's really important is having enough surface area at the top of the tank for proper gas exchange, which is almost impossible in a drum bowl like Manbagi's. Another reason the bigger the tank the better!
And finally, the most important thing that ALL pet fish need is a filter! Just bubblers and changing the water aren't enough because when fish poop in the water or when leftover food breaks down it creates ammonia, which is toxic even in small amounts and can greatly harm the health of the fish if they have to swim in it (aka breathe in it) for any prolonged period... This is why so many fish in bowls die so early instead of living out their full lifespan being healthy & happy. Having a biological filter establishes a bacteria colony that breaks down the ammonia into nitrates (the nitrogen cycle). What Tadano put in her tank looked like a filter though so that's good. :) Even in a properly filtered tank, I still recommend changing the water 25-50% each week.

Sorry for the wall of text lol I just wanted to make sure that if anyone gets a cute goldfish like People-kun they remember to do research on the care needs and don't just keep em in a bowl :')

Seeing Tadano's flat answer, I think Manbagi's question has multiple meanings, hence the (presumably) misunderstanding.

Tho it's not like I understand Japanese or have read the RAW beforehand.
