This fmc is really the worst, and i still don't know why the bf have to feel guilty.

 

[Dekker]

Wow the author is bending over backwards for the fmc. Really the day after you go out on a date with a dude your boyfriend doesn't like, you get some head pats from the same dude? Yet somehow the BF is in the wrong?

"He watched me again and it's thanks to you"

Can you be more dense than this? Beats most romcom MC, almost falls into stupidity

 

[Loliconi]

thank you so much for uploading the TL, I think I shat on this series a bit too much.

Have to commend the author, this is never seen before levels of wild and writing. Makes it actually enjoyable somehow.

”I wanted to learn about love, something you can’t teach me, so I went on a secret date with another man that actively pursues me. Why are you avoiding me now?” as she keeps on physically and emotionally flirting with the other man. ✍️🔥

Well, let’s believe that she was sooooo dumb that she didn’t understood that the other dude was hitting on her, and that even if she wasn’t flirting with him, her bf has all the reasons to be angry. Now that the senpai openly told her that he loves her, let’s see if she still go and spend some alone time with him without talking with her bf, to get some « love counseling »

I get she's being genuine and is pretty naive, but she's kind of a shit gf.

If she doesn’t shut this guy down within at least the next 2 chapters, I’m gonna be pissed. I might even drop it, because there’s a limit to how stupid you can make a main character and still have the story be semi-realistic.

If she still tries to keep this dude in her life and skirt around the issue, then, and I could be wrong, any self-respecting guy wouldn’t stay in a relationship with her.

Best possible way I think she could, and should, respond to this is by saying something along the lines of “Thank you for feeling that way about me senpai. I used feel something like that towards you, but I don’t anymore. I love my boyfriend. I think we should keep some distance for the sake of him.” I may have worded that pretty poorly, but I think I got the point across fairly well.

Honestly feel bad for Keigo. How can she be this stupid? If she doesn't wake up soon them i'm done reading this

Spoiler

If i remember correctly, next chapter gonna be the last time we see that guy, and the drama will resolved in chapter 20 (fmc is still shit tho)

 

[zeansunsunzean]

This...just reminds me of fanfiction writing too much, almost too much that I'm questioning if the author is a first time writer

Thank god. Yeah this FMC definitely is one my least favorites so far. But at least the author doesn’t make her stupid enough to not shut this guy down. I’m not gonna drop it just for her being kinda stupid though. Not when I’m currently reading multiple shounen romances with MCs twice as stupid has her

 

[rudezki]

Well, what do you expect, you ditzy b-word?

 

[Hikineet]

Thanks for the chapter.

 

[unfilteredjw]

Big yikes.

Dropped. She deserves better.

 

[BalrogDeMorgoth]

She only understood it at the last damn page?

 

[drago625]

Fuck this nonsense I'ma drop this series

Well, let’s believe that she was sooooo dumb that she didn’t understood that the other dude was hitting on her, and that even if she wasn’t flirting with him, ...

You have to really look at every single panel to fully understand just how bad she is here and that there is no room for benefit of the doubt at all. Zero.

You can NOT believe she is so dumb and didn't understand. On page 3 she instantly without any second thought goes "WAIT A MINUTE, IT IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK". She knows. Everything. What her secret date implies. What she did wrong. What she did with the other guy.
Saying that she can't learn about love with her literal lover and needs to secretly meet up with a boderline stranger and successfully understood love as a whole is a whole other kick in the gut... well, more like a nuke into his face. This is the first time I have read something this disrespectful and cruel in a romance manga. Her looking so content while doing it is rude as hell, lmao.
This also ties into the next point.

You can NOT type she wasn't flirting with him. She clearly is comfortable enough to meet up, secretly, to get incredibly drunk (enough to not make it home alone, he did escort her in the end, lmao) and go along with his flirtation pretty much always. Some of it clearly is unintended but she lets all physical contact happen (blushing once or twice) and encourages his verbal flirting with her answers.
She also actively shows that he has MASSIVE impact on her in a positive way. It is creepy as hell but he can actually go and say "Heh, I taught her what love is". It is weird.
She also is INCREDIBLY comfortable around him as she instantly pours out her heart and makes everything about her relationship, something private and without the knowledge of her boyfriend, public to a borderline stranger. That is CRAZY.

I looove age gap and mature romance. But there is no adult in this one (even if he behaves like one). I absolutely despise her.
