Hold on. He outright said he was out with Akira shopping for swimsuits and Hotaru acknowledged it by saying "yeah she's serious about wrestling." But she's surprised at the very end that Akira is a girl? I've read this over a few times and even in the next chapter she says "I thought Akira was a guy" and I still don't get this. Did the author forget halfway through or am I going insane? She know's Akira is the topic of conversation and that Akira is female, but is suddenly surprised out of nowhere? Again feel free to explain this to me as I'm drunk and probably retarded but this seems like a glaring oversight
