I really hope this becomes a lesson that is just fking confess instead of pinning your confession on random unlikely stuff or you'll loose your chance. This whole waiting around game is getting a bit painful, they both know they both like each other and they both know they both know, just fucking confess. That hotspring chapter was a mistake, Naoto. You shoulda just went for it. Not everyone can be the best artist or athlete, but you don't need to be that as long as you can be proud of your work. Especially artist, all the best artists abandoned their families or they died or crap like that.
