I felt the whole thing was perfectly paced, except just a bit for the final 2 chapters. Could have used a few more pages to show how Okada and Hattori started fighting to make it more dramatic, and maybe a couple pages to expand on Ooki's bullshitting to make the punchline of her joke (did she actually joke? lol) hit harder. Anyway the ending is just perfect in my opinion, she even prevented him from actually saying the magic words, and what a clever title drop as the very last scene. 10/10 would coom again from anything else this author makes.
