If the ending wasnt so rushed this would have been PERFECT.
The ending would be much better if 1: them both being ace was more impactful/highlighted in the main story 2. The confession made ANY changes to their relationship.
Like, does ace really mean ONLY liking holding hands? No hugging? No caressing? No nothing? There were a few moments where there was more than just handholding, at around the start/middle (e.g. chap 5.5 praising/patting fantasy, or Asahi caressing Hinako's head/hair). But then in the last (few) chapter(s) there's none of that??? When they are the closest??? I thought they did enjoy some contact, or did the author change his mind? This makes it feel like after the confession their relationship literally downgraded, only holding hands (from what is shown). My confusion would be cleared up if there were more than 2 pages of them together post confession, which also would probably have a bit more emotional affection, which the ending could use more of, since you know they are ace lovers....
And yes, I understand that they have a limit for how much they want to touch, but they really seemed to like caressing/handholding. So im just sad that the former was de emphasized.
I hope someone else feels the same. Still loved 99% of this but I haven't seen anyone go in depth why the ending felt unsatisfying, and it makes me sad
