why is it so fucking challenging for these people to speak your mind openly?
using misunderstandings to drive the plot forward is completely ridiculous

Anybody irl who is that much of a pushover and worrywart at the same time probably would have long gone insane at this point.

The way Suzuka handled Raika was impressive

 

[JulesBeHere]

Good on the friend for not answering any questions. The way she's acting is definitely very stalkerish, I'd be concerned too. I mean, identifying his friend and then trying to get personal info from him? That's... weird, considering the context. He needs to make sure everyone close to him is aware that she could show up so they know to avoid her.

Edit: I totally forgot the end of chapter 15 where she overhears the whole body swapping conversation. She probably body swaps too or something lmao

Is this side quest gonna lead to the main story quest or is this just filler?

 

[Remissio]

People saying this is using misunderstandings to drive the plot. But unless I'm missing something, aside from the senpai planting the idea of scams recently being a bit outta nowhere to do this, it makes sense for Sunao to be wary?

Like some random girl you don't know shows up, asks for directions and then knows way too much about your personal Life. That's something to be wary of and likely to be either a stalker or someone trying to scam you. Lemon is being a bit too stubborn tho, like he legit told her what he thinks that Raika is a scammer and tho she doesn't know Raika she's jumping through hoops to make herself think they've been secretly dating? Like I like the 4 protags so far but Lemon legit the most annoying somehow cuz she's acting a bit too possessive over someone she fumbled like that in the past. Like if there are a lot of misunderstandings tbh they're coming from Lemon not saying anything about that or telling Sunao she likes him or Sunao not telling her he has someone he likes atm as well.

I appreciate Suzuka tho. He handled that well. Like he was also a bit skeptical but when she started being sus he realized Sunao may be right. I kinda want the story to go back to him working out his emotions regarding whether he liked Lemon herself or Sunao personality in Lemon. (Like we know the answer but he should work that out haha)

I’m as stupid as Sunao, please ELI5 what Suzuka realised on pg22? Is it just that Raika is a scam who’s not close to Sunao?

Suzuka MVP tho

My man.

You see, characters actually behaving like people with functional frontal lobes would lead to actual character development. Clearly nobody involved with this manga wants that to happen.

Reminder: Being a romcom protag is the worst.

We don’t know what Raika really is up to yet, but we can be pretty sure that she’s neither a scam nor interested in Sunao. Sunao didn´t „realize“ anything (he never realizes anything), he just guessed she would be a scam, even though he could just ask Lemon about that (like he’d do that).

He realized that's the girl Sunao was just telling him about, that's all.

Suzuka is the only likeable character from this cast, just tells it like it is

How long.... how long will you keep eating ice cream while you walk?

'till the day I die, baby~

 

[Ghost7869]

This was one of the most aggravating chapters to read so far, I've never seen two characters just speak at each other with out understanding a single thing the other was saying like the way Sunao and Lemon did. Sure misunderstandings are a staple of romcoms but it's like the were being wilfully ignorant, especially when the Raika situation could have been cleared up in a single sentence.

 

[NorwegianJap]

She's pretty fucking creepy lmao. That's some serious stalker behaviour that came from out of literally nowhere.

 

[Kitsune_115]

"Can I ask a question?"
"No "

 

[the_blip]

The fact she's approaching his friend with information he hasn't given to her should be extremely alarming. That, plus her turning up right after he dodges her call, she's acting like a stalker. Sunao should report her to the university, but he won't because he's the biggest pushover ever.

Lemon's gonna fuck it up some more with her outright refusal to accept Sunao's explanation. She's never been able to not fuck with his personal relationships while swapped.

 

[dollyscurse]

suzuka so real for that
