just when I thought they gonna do the overused trope, the author really says "No" and then make it right right away.
bless you author for treating Shiraishi like this

When friends go from being redeemers to being a barrier… Doing a confession properly is insanely hard, and it hits way too close to home to be able to tell a story right now…

I’m once again surprised that Shiriashi gained this level of conviction and determination so suddenly. Though for me, it was sudden. It just sorta hit me one day: You aren’t getting any younger. Your friends are not forever. Your family is

That, "It's not what you think... Actually, it is what you think," reminds me of Katanagatari (best revenge-themed anime, btw), where in the beginning FL says as the third of her four conditions, "I want you to take care of yourself. But don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this because I like you." And then her fourth condition is, "I want you to take care of yourself. This is because I like you." Or Nino in 5toubun where MC didn't hear her confession because of the wind, so she said it again.

Moments like that make me appreciate the characters so much more.



Haven't read that one in... 150 chapters or so. Since it hasn't ended yet, I don't expect any real change, like most long-going romances. Are there still people in the comments there who go, "I hate this crap; I'm dropping it!" "See you next chapter!" ?

I count myself lucky that I did drop it when I said that. I can only tolerate so much jerking around when there are better romcoms out there.

There are so many people who read mangas they don't seem to like, and only complain about, time and time again. I've learned enough to drop what I don't enjoy. Also applicable to stuff like YT channels/videos and games.

I am certainly guilty of reading a bland isekai/LitRPG past the point where I should drop it, but I have at least gotten better at dropping stuff I actively dislike.

Me who was annoyed when the friends interrupted him but then I read until the end: Man, they had me in the first half not gonna lie.

Even with all the mishaps and the spoiled confession, he still wanted to do it properly. That, my friends, is a chad.

I'll take it being extended for an extra chapter or two rather than complete bait like I thought it was going to be for a second
