The author doesn't have the balls to pull it off like some other did lately! This smells of cockblock incoming. With how cliché this series is, I would be eating my words if they pull it off and fuck already.
You know I'm all for staying faithful to Japanese spelling when using Japanese words in English in romaji form and not removing all the extra u's and o's, but I'm pretty sure it's spelled ryokan in Japanese, too (旅館's reading is りょかん).
