I'd like to think that this story goes in a different direction. for one, MC-kun isn't a gloomy loner character with a secret talent, he's actually upfront about what he wants to do, and that's awesome. It makes the moments where he's flustered or caught off-guard more natural, rather than expected of his character.
I don't believe the "i met you once when we were young, but you forgot" trope will be used. At least not with MC-chan, who's definitely an interesting girl.
I just read the 2 available chapters, and can't wait for the continuation, thanks for the translations
