Ik the actual chapters are old but in my heart I believe that the author got sad that nagatoro is ending and started this whole adult bully love plotline
The co-worker of the siblings neighbor that likes to watch them from the window and now in their circle of friends, she knows that was stalker behaviour.
She have 2 colleagues that appear often, I was talking about the one with the bodytype Maruyama likes, I think they could match well.
Popularity can come from unexpected directions.
At least the trend is clear that those who are into him are people who has known him for who he is. That’s quite enviable.
