If the translation is correct, it's actually worse than that: They didn't date for A WHOLE YEAR AND A HALF because of a dumbass technicality.
And two years after that thing at the hotel where they both knew he was confessing (even if he stopped a few words short).

But they got there.

started out pretty weak, but the character are grown on me, tho i think it's already too late at that point. ending is fine for axed manga. series could've league better tho. 7/10.

would have loved to see a conclusion with her friend that always misunderstood their relationship. these were always pretty funny. Not particularly happy with the ending, why was the wait 1.5 years a thing?

Damn. I was hoping for a shonenrival level of storylines. I guess this was good though.

They didn't date FOR HALF A FUCKING YEAR despite wanting to because of some dumbass technicality? Jesus Christ, they are truly made for each other with how inhumanly stupid they are.
Inhumanly? No that's like the most humanly thing ever

Dang, so she moved the goalposts after all. But he did give her his answer, ...a year and a half later. I guess he did grow enough of a spine to do that. So they kinda wasted 1.5 years mutually being in love but holding back and doing nothing about it, even graduation from high school happened before they started dating. Wonder what Rika thought about that (she probably thought they were FWB for like ~2 years before they began dating? They never resolved her misunderstanding after all).

We end with a return confession and a kiss. Par for the course, and the bare minimum of what I'd consider acceptable for a romcom; well, it's a happy ending at least. Standard romcom confession ending when they start dating, continuing the long-running trend of having the bare minimum rom and leaving the com to do the heavy lifting.

On a side note, Aina got a serialized manga without needing to do a pilot oneshot. Think about that. The publisher must be pretty confident about her for that to happen. Also we never saw Minami again after Aina subbed her out for assistant work... and finally, we never even got Mie's full name. Confessions and a kiss, but to my memory he was never even fully introduced.

Another authors that did the "confessing / kiss into ending" type ending, it is what it is. :aquadrink:

Fun manga but another ending that feels rushed. Starting to think all these abrupt endings have to do with the new tax code thing going on.

abrupt endings to manga that couldn't get a new volume approved is as old as time. That's just the business when readership is down or never takes off.

worst part is we don't even help much by reading or discussing here because most manga publishers are dinosaurs in terms of adopting new tech. Shounen Jump picked up Mangaplus, but most other publishers at best have some online service in JP only. really need to speed up how localization works if they want to expand.
