Nothing is happening on this trip is it?
I think the last time I enjoyed an Onsen episode was in Ore no Kurasu ni Wakagaetta Moto Yome ga Iru, the main protagonist help change the course of history, bond and have a good time together.
I haven't read a lot of Manga honestly, too many classics escape me, I mostly keep to romcoms, but I have grown numbs to certain conventions, they feel so trite and superficial. Like the writer feels obliged to go through certain motions, is like they are cooking a recipe and feel tied to adding certain steps or ingredients as if it was out of their control.
I thought the story, had a good pace, that we were getting some good progress for 20 chapters, but I am starting to feel like the story has slowed down a bit, that the writer is trying to slow things and is going to turn into another traditional story where the girl has to do all the work while the guy blocks her until the end.
