People are going on about "this is such an unrealistic reason for her to break up with him" but as someone whose ex fiance simply woke up one day and said "I'm not gay anymore," left and got himself a girlfriend, nothing feels impossible or ridiculous to me. Ahh, Hiromi, I empathize with you. But at least you have a harem to fall back on for support.

In what ways is he a disaster? He can hold down a job, take care of his house, and keep up with friends. Only thing he's bad at are romantic relationships.
He works part-time teaching cooking classes. He’s nearly broke (5 roommates remember?), has nearly no family, low self confidence, and lots of trauma. He only looks good if you compare him with the loser Nonoka dumped him for.

Fucking Hell, I hope Sasuga Kei shows us that this bitch is going to live a poor life for choosing her cheating ex. Like what the fuck. If she wants to be a mother so bad, she should just get pregnant with the MC. I hope her family rakes her over the coals for this shit and she losses all of her friends, or at the very least, realize they think she's dumb for doing that shit.

Yeah, Anju clocked exactly what type of person she was from a mile away. But this is the 3rd relationship we've seen Hiromi jump into only for it to end like 5 chapters later. Just give him a fuckin break and make the next relationship actually matter/stick around for a while.

you listed a bunch of regular things that are true of 90% of people. If, in addition to those, he couldn't keep a job, keep his house clean, or stay social, then I'd agree he's a disaster. He was definitely a disaster at the start of the story.

Hiromi can do housework, sure, but otherwise he’s kind of a disaster isn’t he? Who would look at him and think that he doesn’t need a woman to take care of him?
What manga have you been reading?? Literally every single person that has met him so far had nothing but good things to say about him, hell, Tsubasa's grandmother literally approved of him since she thought he was her actual fiance and not the other dude she brought home

The only "disaster" you can think of is him wanting to get married and start a family


And to your last question, literally every woman that has met him up to this point


Bro literally 4 out of the 5 girls from the sharehouse want that man 🤦🏾‍♂️

Completely usnrurprising. Not because it's Sasuga Kei, but because it's been foreshadowed for chapters. Her hesitation never went away, and Anju basiclaly predicted this exact scenario.

Interestingly, I think this "disaster" is something he will have to adress sooner or later.

His dream isn't something bad, but it pushes lofty ideals onto his relationships. Given that Sasuga Kei is using almost every character in the series to explore how love works (or doesn't work) for different people, I suspect Hiromi's arc will be about coming to terms with the fact that his goal is a pipe dream. Not because having a good marriage and a happy family life is impossible, but because setting it as your expectation from the get-go is putting the cart before the horse.

The question wasn’t whether he was well liked or wanted. It was whether he was someone who could/would be taken care of by their partner.

I’d argue that he wants someone to do that for him more than anyone because he’s never really experienced it. Even as a child he learned his skills from his grandma so he could reduce her burden. I think that’s part of what makes so many people think that Yukari could be good for him.

90%? Really!?! If 90% of the were like him society would have already collapsed.

Dropping i guess... completely trash justification, and this sh*t is so much worse than domestic girlfriend
how is that even possible?
but I'm tempted to agree, this whole manga should just be titled Woman Moment

The amount of people that didn't see this coming is astonishing. The point of the break-up was to highlight exactly what Nonoka said :

This is the only way I can live!

When you stop approaching this manga as a love-polygon battle, you can see what Sasuga Kei has been aiming at this whole time. This manga has been questioning the essence of living with someone. It's Yukari's demonstration of holding hands. It's in the damn title. I can still admit how awful some of the ways the author goes about it. But like c'mon you guys... how are you so flabbergasted? Get it together!!


















Naaah, I'm just messing with you guys. 😂

Sasuga, Sasuga Kei.
