Im serious now...
Why they have to be 1st yr high schoolers when in a scenery like this would feel so natural if they were already adults or in college. In reality they're still so damn young. Honestly wish the series started at least from mid 2nd year instead.
To think theres so much ground to cover worries me of what the author will do to fill the time. Maybe Yagyuu could move abroad during their 2nd yr and come back on her graduation. Anything to let the less amount of time possible on the authors hand lol
