Deretai Kanojo no Uraomote - Ch. 2

[Nivek]

I have no idea why thirty thousand people bookmarked this manga. I never thought so many people would actually read it.

Just thought would be different, ended up being trash yet like any good trainwreck,we can't look the other way

Regardless of MC's reasons for keeping distance, I don't like how the tomboy basically blackmailed him into being friends with her again. That's not even a friendship at that point, more like a hostage situation he can't get out of unless he willingly chooses himself and his reputation to go up in flames, and what will that girl do after that?

Add into the other girl who acts all haughty and salty towards him for not being chosen to be confessed to, and I can't see which one is the better girl right now. This is honestly a really bad introduction for all the characters.

Tbf the reason he gives for NOT wanting to be friends isn't because of her. Its a pretty half assed reason. She's 100x better than the insulting bitchy friend.

All of these characters kinda suck, and I don't think that's meant to be the point.

I though she was the one in middle school but maybe she'll appear later

Hmm I don't really like the mc attitude. He cares too much what other think because he hanging with a beautiful girl. Let them be jealous!

Remember that this is high school. This manga is pretty low-quality, but his reaction isn't that unreasonable. You absolutely should care what others think to some extent in all life situations because what they think can result in consequences. This is a romcom manga, so nothing will happen beyond jealous nameless guys seething in the background, but in real life he could get bullied or ostracized for being friends with a pretty girl while not being among the popular kids of the class. This can happen in any Western country, so just imagine what it must be like in Japan where conformity and "knowing your place" are even more important. Obviously, he's taking it a bit too far with wanting to avoid her, but again, this is just a manga.
