Isn't it supposed to be 8th-grade?Nine-grader syndrome "villan".
Is this suddenly turning into a horror, death game manga? Because I'm getting serious "I am going to kill them and wear their skins as clothes" vibes from this guy.
Seriously, it is school rankings, what the hell.
aint it just middle school in general?Isn't it supposed to be 8th-grade?
A man of culture, I see.
On come on, in the middle of this arc? This is a fluffy romcom, there is no way we'll get the female lead doing a sneer to the MC. Did you not see her personality? That's right, you didn't, because she doesn't have one! She is a generic rich beatiful ditzy japanese high school girl persona, the only emotions you can expect from her is a confused, concerned, flustered pouty and embarrassed.There is the possibility, that she will not accept the MC's explanation, but will connect his immense focus on studying with this bet. In this case the outcome could be that she either see it as romantic, and they get closer, or she will see it as creepy.
