Also, that burger bite on the first page was adorable.I'm not going to lie. I don't know why I felt this way, Earnest isn't even my top pick, but that got uncomfortably close to Leonard winning for my tastes.
I think Leonard, Clay and Kassim are more memorable to Japanese readers, because Japanese readers are familiar with the stereotypes they embody, which are different from stereotypes in Western media. Most weebs know about your tsunderes, kuuderes, etc. but there are so many stereotypes that most Western readers don't know about. The anime nails their "vibe", and introduces them very well imo!Leonard's screentime really was weird. He was so unnoticeable most of the time in the manga that I just forgot that he even existed until I saw him relatively prominently featured in the anime.
Tbf until last chapter Clay was also just "The guy who's always next to Cassim" for me (who sticks out again due to his pervyness).

You know, I sympathize with this very much. It was uncomfortable and watching Blade intervene in a small fit of jealousy only added onto the awkwardness somehow.I'm not going to lie.

To me it never felt like that, since Earnest's the first heroine and has generally been shown to be the closest to Blade. Would've been more believable if it was anyone else. It's one of those, "like you'd ever do that".that got uncomfortably close to Leonard winning for my tastes.
