We're starting to see why Shiramori likes him; He unafraid to be honest about his introversion. Where Shiramori tries to fit in with others' image of her, Soukichi accepts a little loneliness to avoid uncomfortable social pressure. They can stand to learn from each other. Shiramori needs to set her boundaries, and Soukichi needs to up his communication skills for the real world.

He's not a "beta cuck", just in unfamiliar waters. I can picture them being happy reading next to each other rather than being unhappy in a large crowd of superficial friends.
I think people seem to forget that in japanese culture a lot of these "beta" traits are seen as attractive. Like, east asian culture in general has more androgynous and feminine beauty standards for men overall. Like look at kpop. Look at the last two zelda games. Nintendo new exactly what they were doing with putting link in the gerudo outfit. The idea that straight women are exclusively attracted to muscular men is mostly a western idea.

But, eh. Mangadex comment section is going to be a toxic cesspool either way I guess.

True bro!
Also I get your concern with the "right now" but it still feel like a cute story with an MC that needs (and hopefully will) ascertain himself.
I mean beautiful girls who fall for the wimpy guy don't always go for NTR (and btw it's 100% dick size maybe he's huge lel).

Joking aside, Kuckzuya is quite manlier than this wimp. At least, he didn't hide under the table when called out by his girlfriend, iirc.
Fair, but then you realise what he does everyday in his apartment: 🗿

Yeah, I really love that chapter from her point of view. You might be able to buy the physical copy direct from the publisher http://tentaibooks.com/ if that is too expensive you can buy the book as a pdf from them.

As a fellow insecure person, the way he thinks is so accurate.

"Right now, you're my one and only" Ah, yay, I'm her one and only. Wait... "right now"? What's that mean? Does that mean she's planning to drop me? But what if I'm over-thinking it? It would look ridiculous to say something and turn out to be wrong.

And that's how it goes, boys and girls

Being a little jealous would be perfectly normal in a situation like this, but actually getting angry and saying this shit? It's so fucking pathetic. Just imagining him standing there, clenching his fists and muttering this bullshit makes me cringe.

She told him that she loves him few chapters ago btw. She told him again in this chapter, and HE STILL FOUND A WAY TO IGNORE IT. I mean come on, just how unlikable can this dude get?

Calling him pathetic is pathetic, tbh. It is a high school setting. Dude is socially inept and out of his comfort zone trying to somehow get by and she knows. This situation clearly was incredibly uncomfortable and out of nowhere for him, caused solely by her.

The panels were pretty over the top and the author went out of their way to showcase his negative reaction to pretty much EVERYTHING going on there in that moment. The author also overly showcased just how ridiculously much she swooned for the friend and how positive meeting him was to her.
She also didn't tease him this chapter, she straight up imagination flirted up another guy verbally in front of him to then tell him "but I am fine with settling for you!", punch in the gut while making fun of him (from his pov), calling him out for being jealous of his best friend. That is plain vile.
How is he not allowed to be overwhelmed, conflicted, mad, pressed etc. and ask her stuff that is relevant in that moment?

Ngl he do be extremely spineless but she went above and beyond to rile him up and destroy his mental this chapter, on purpose.
"Woah he was nice, how lucky to have such a good friend" and teasing him is not equal to what happened here, being "Woah you are well liked by this prime hunk alpha hottie that is lusted after by the whole stundent body! Not telling you if I want him! But I won't even bother properly reassuring you, just trust me bro, I am fine with you right now!"

Big L for both you and her.
