But she doesn't have the luxury of time. We're only alive for so many years and not all Japanese live to 100. We sleep for 24 years. Women can only give birth to children until they reach a certain age. She doesn't have the time to explore every possibility for a partner. Plus she's working as a teacher and that's time consuming.

You can't make every decision based on emotions like love because emotions come, go, and come again. You could meet someone you love, marry them, the love fades, you find another person you love so you divorce, the love fades again as time goes on.

Like the song says, "You can't always get what you want."
Orrr, you could take the easy way out and say F that noise, I'm staying single. :) Much less of a head-ache. Screw the parents too. You didn't ask to be born, after all. And you're not their property.

Out of all the characters, Orizuru is probably the most forward when it comes to her interactions with Hiro. So there’s a chance that Hiro might expect her to act that way around the marriage partner and she instead comes off very stiff, which makes him spring into action if the guy tries to take advantage of her and she’s clearly not into it.

lol. They really went from processing love to spy caper in 2 pages.

She’s clearly just coping with the pressure she’s under. Claiming that "adults don’t have the luxury of time" and focusing on what she "likes" in a person seems like a way to justify settling for less than what she truly wants.
Not sure if it's changing nowadays, but there was a big pressure in Japan (especially women) to marry before X age. That's where the whole "chistmas tree" insult came from: after 25 you put down the decorations.

There's a little truth in the matter that yes, as you get older it gets harder to find a partner. And if you care about kids it gets harder to make one as you age. But for someone in their 20's/early 30's that's a non-issue (and honestly, we have better tech for that these days if you do want to push out later).

Kinda stupid but that's "tradition" for you. Someone like Orizuru shouldn't be worried at all about finding a partner organically.

What's your bet?

Given the fancy hotel setting, I'm going with charismatic socialite whose trash in private. Pretty typical NTR bait that makes sense in their world while being obviously bad to readers. And it makes the reveal all the more suprising to the parents.

Feels like the smart money is going to be on the guy turning out to be a total douchebag who tells her that when they're married she's going to quit work and just be a housewife because it's what he wants and is traditional and everything breaks down from there. Because they can't set her up to leave without altering the premise of the series.

Good, there were no boobs this chapter. I don't have to see my rabbi this week.
Now now mister, the chapter is still not over yet, we have yet to see .2 and .5!

Wait are you baiting me into another gamble?

What's your bet?
1. Old, fat, ugly, bald guy. (Like me except being bald)
2. Otaku.
3. Spoiled little brat.
4. Arrogant, cold, uninterested guy.
5. Nice looking, charming, attractice, tall, big hands, handsome. And gay.
Notice that there are no good options obviously, since she's definitely not leaving the inn.

6. Shyamalan twist, it will be a femboy streamer with a cat-ears headset

No way they’d make the guy absolutely perfect but then it turns out he’s gay. Usually it ends up being that he appears like a great guy with his background and achievements, but personality-wise he’s trash.

this feels like a development you need 3 or 4 more arcs into the story. There hasn't been enough of a connection between these two outside of "wow she's horny" and it feels kinda odd for the author to pull this so early

Out of context but i kinda like the Tonikawa character reference on the "looking for translator" start page.
