He is in a situation where he has to decide whether to pay money or bear the consequence, he chooses the consequence and then she feels pleasure in that situation. At some point won't this dynamic start to get boring?

I think, like the readers, the two leads are still trying to figure each other out. Poor Hoshino just got dunked on twice, so he's prolly not developing the best impression of Yamada, while she on the other hand... Man
.. I dunno. Maybe she sees him as an interesting new toy? A distraction?

Also, why does she keep asking for money? Just greedy or is there some deeper reason behind it? I can't say I'm enjoying this as much as I initially hoped for, but I'm still interested enough to follow it for now.

It’s becoming more evident that Ojiro Makoto—the primary reason I was interested in this title—is purely the artist, with no input into the story, because the story so far is pure meh. According to MU, Hoshino Disco (the author) is a comedian, and apparently this is his first manga. So far the writing isn’t comedic, it’s just weird. And not even the interesting kind of weird. Maybe Makoto wanted to take a break from writing after her last story, but I wish she’d chosen someone better to team with.

And why did the author name the MC after himself?

I thought the comedian's name was just publicity. The writer would be Ojiro. I began to believe that it was really the comedian who was writing it.

... I think this is one of the kinds of romcom you'd get when your only choice is to do new stuff.

Alright, this makes more sense now. the writing in this feels a bit off compared to her other works.

This is pretty garbage so far. Not interesting when both leads are extremely unlikable.

She's an absolute bitch and he needs to grow a pair.
Even her design is basic as hell. Like at the very least make her a gyaru or something. Ngl, the series really needs to do something to spice things up because it's so bland and derivative.

Actually, he didn't even get to choose. The idiot just got stuck in dilemma mode until the exam time ran out and he failed the make-up.

I think a lot of people expected a typical chool romcom and that's why you are saying this is meh or you are disappointed. As @horsewithnoname just said, this is just chapter two. You can dislike this, of course. The solution is easy: stop reading and go try another series. :bocchiwave:

Oh so criticizing and hoping the series actually gets better isn't allowed?

Of course it is! Sorry, I didn't wanted to give that impression. What I don't understand is people reading something that they dislike. No more, no less. 🤝
