I like her husband approach, he's not making big fuss over it but he's obviously hurt and wants a divorce which I totally understand, if she cheated on him they should just end their relationship
no need for scenes just let's decide to split up
his mother on the other hand...
also i just want to add that what ayano feels is not love, plain and simple, its infatuation and once hormones cool down in a year or so she might end up with a person she knows absolutely nothing about and they might be not compatible at all and she as a 30 something yo should know better
but unlike other comments i dont really hate her because i respect her honesty, much better she told her husband than just continued cheating behind his back

I hate both of them. Ayano is a cheating bitch and Akari is a homewrecker who doesn't seem to care that she destroyed a marriage. People called their marriage loveless, but considering how the husband has reacted, I think he did love her.

@JKTV

Honestly? These 2 will probably get away with it and there will be some fairy tale lesbian happy ending.

I think no matter what your thoughts on their relationship are and how they're handling it, I think we can generally agree that the mom is being super fucking nosy and speaking out of her ass.

I mean, finding out your son is being cheated on would make you kinda nosy.

@jak that’s something they should settle between them, anyway. No need to stick her nose in another couple’s life...even more if “them don’t breaking up” is what you need -not want- for another family member...it doesn’t even seems that she wants it for her son, but more for the shut-in.

Plus, saying “a kiss is not enough to break up” is bs.
Maybe she says it because the other one is a girl and she doesn’t see two girls as a romantic relationship, but a kiss IS enough to break.

well, that’s definitely the fastest i’ve seen a manga go from “oops, i’m cheating” to “oh no consequences”

Finding-out that your son's wife has been unfaithful would make you curious. Demanding explanations would be nosy. Insisting that, whatever your son might otherwise think, he should roll with the punch and stay in the marriage would be well over-the-line.

When a member of my family was a victim of infidelity, I made sure to let that person know that I understood that the situation was terribly wounding, that I cared, and that I would listen. I wasn't asked for advice, so I didn't give it.

I don't know... This story doesn't seem like it's going anywhere.
Does this mangaka even know what the motivations of the characters are anymore? :D Because the characterizations all over the place.
Oh well, maybe next chapter will contain an actual story instead of what this is supposed to be.

The son started the divorce conversation, so I fail how to see she is nosy, pushy and ignorant sure.

eh..This married character is so selfish.
If I had been this husband I would have dropped her already and the lesbian should be a better person and love herself more than paying attention to this woman.
I can't stand reading this story anymore

They are acting as saint-adults or silly-adults but not adult-adults

And I agree that the writing seems to here and there, the side characters are focused on for a bit then brushed aside

But still for some reason I can't stop looking at the main three characters, whenever their monologues(?) or close ups come it becomes very engaging
I'd like to see and hear more of the husband's thoughts, he seems to be trying his best at being fair while also trying to make sense of everything and holding back from lashing out

I guess I don't know what I'm talking about, it does feel boring? frustrating? confusing? Idk, at times but it's interesting enough that I want to read more and find out what happens next

Kisato - "the mom is being super fucking nosy and speaking out of her ass"

What the hell, are you fourteen or something? His mother was actually super decent about it.

Wataru's words are illuminating: "My mother likes to show off [...]".

It's clear. His mother is the status-obsessed type... and East Asian on top of that. I emphasise East Asian, because while you can find such characters everywhere, that part of the world, with its hierarchical societies, fosters such behaviour. All her words and actions in this chapter are true to form.
