Finally, some exposition for Minami, after so long. Glad to see that he had a firm grasp of the situation and even gave her a good advice. The fact that he noticed Akari affection for him made it better too. Though, it's quite weird that he didn't know that Shiori is in love with Jirou despite noticing that Shiori had someone she love. Shiori didn't even interact with many boys beside Jirou, quite weird tbh. Akari last line to Minami looks like a death flag but it's probably just for callback later or something.
As for Jirou, with all the things he's doing with Shiori, if this doesn't convince him that she have the hots for him, I'm really going to start losing hope on this guy. He seems convinced that he isn't in love with Akari but the face isn't really that convincing. Rooting for Shiori here but guess that's just a pipe dream now, especially with that last page.
We're progressing rather fast here, didn't expect it to be this quick.
