I think this chapter was cute.
This manga has always been a story between a (not so much) introvert boy and a (not really) sadist girl.
They're both dorky in their own ways. Normal teenagers, really, with their dorkiness.
Really, what were people expecting? It's chapter 58, did you not get the memo?
What "personality" should he even get? All these people complaing that he's a pussy or similar, what manga did you read until now? He the classical shy and quiet boy, not really at ease around extrovert girls.
