Ya'll are so hard to please smh. I'll take this over spending 50 plus chapter because someone is too dense/embarrassed/doesn't understand their feelings/doesn't want to hurt their best friend who also like the person/etc. Just roll with it and for those of you craving some traumatic drama, the authors already show they're fine with high level gore (that girl that got ripped in half a few chapters back had her intestines and shit spilling out on the ground), who knows? Maybe the author will start killing off characters Akame Ga Kill style (remember what happened to that romance?)
Either way, chill. It's fine to have manga like this every now and then.
