You don't seem to understand why people are complaining. They're not complaining about the drama itself, they're complaining about how forced it is. Until now, it was thought that Aoki was the smart one. Or should I say, the experienced one. But this mixer arc is very forced. It's forced drama. This isn't a "real life" problem. It's not
hurdles and tribulations that any normal couple is going to go through
Drama exists in "real-life" relationships, but not this kind of forced drama, because only in manga people are this dumb.
Now, "Oh, but this is manga, it's fiction." Well, now that depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking for realism, definetly this isn't the manga for you.
If you're looking for well done fiction... I guess this isn't the manga for you either
I thought it was, at first, but the guy fooled me well. It was okay-silly until now. Now it's full on dumb.
