Exactly. I’d reward this comment if I could. In this very chapter it’s basically yanked out of her by her friends. Then even earlier by Kogahara. Both times lying would’ve made no sense because they already know the truth. As much as it’s growth it’s also more of the same thing. Unless she’s being forced she’s going to take the easier route as soon as she can. That route was simple cut off both of the times I mentioned. Yet I think it’s pretty obvious she’s going to “win”. In quotations because I don’t see Sunao as much of a win if I’m being honest.This pretty much confirms what I thought of Lemon. She just wants to keep the current status quo, too afraid to do anything, and it's only when things around her change that she changes. She didn't share any of her feelings until someone basically forced her to do it. It's REALLY infuriating to see such a lazy person get so much credit. She's doing nothing until she's put on the spot to act.
Now, I totally understand why she's like this. It has happened to me and sometimes still does, and it is likely why I dislike it so much. You get nothing right out of this and it only hurts the people around because they have to constantly pull stuff out of you. Imagine Lemon like this on a relationship, where Sunao has to constantly ask her to do things or work on their relationship. Now, Sunao is not a saint or the perfect man... but when you compare Lemon and Kogahara, Lemon is such a bore. DO SOMETHING, WOMAN! DO IT YOURSELF!
Edit Adendum: the only times we have seen Lemon act by herself or plan to act by herself is when she's going to do something that's self-sabotaging. When she told him she's cheating on him, when she broke up, and now she's planning to confess just to get rejected. This isn't someone who's trying to be Altruistic, this is a self-destructing person who is also dragging with her the people she cares and loves. I hope people learn from Lemon's mistakes; this NOT how you should be acting.

I'm not sure she is wrong. Sunao's noticed she likes him, but we haven't seen any confirmation that he reciprocates, while we do have that evidence for Kogahara.Nobody is going to tell her how wrong she is?
I think the fact that he feels conflicted when he gets the chance to advance his relationship with Kogahara kinda signals that he has feelings for Lemon in some form.I'm not sure she is wrong.

This is definitely one angle and I would have more stock in if the two girls weren't friends. I can relate to being scared to potentially hurt or fracture a friendship because both like you. Sunao really does need to decide though cause this back and forth is honestly getting old.I think the fact that he feels conflicted when he gets the chance to advance his relationship with Kogahara kinda signals that he has feelings for Lemon in some form.
Start brushing up on you survival skills for when you wake up in the next world then.If lemons loses ima kms.
Good art, though.
Imo showing how conflicted he is makes it very likely his feelings aren't completely platonic it's just something he's only recently starting to come to terms with and sort throughI'm not sure she is wrong. Sunao's noticed she likes him, but we haven't seen any confirmation that he reciprocates, while we do have that evidence for Kogahara.
You and me both...suicide pact?If lemons loses ima kms.
I mean Sunao is... I dunno. I think he needs to move on from what happened years ago. It's clear it affected him a lot, so much so he was afraid of opening up to people. I have been criticizing how little trust Lemon put on him, and that clearly pushed it over the edge at the end, even if that's not what he consciously got from the event. He's pretty mediocre (not necessarily a bad thing, just average guy). That's just typical guy behavior from romance manga. He does things and is active, but we don't see him do THAT much. I guess, the point is that people that like him, just like him because of his personality, not that he's an amazing guy... as well, the girls aren't that incredible either. They are just people. I guess, what I would say about Sunao is that he's hesitant, he doesn't know what to do, and ends up always choosing the middle ground, which doesn't push him forward or back, he sort of takes the place that causes him the least trouble. Kogahara kind of does the same thing, but that's more out of inexperience, Sunao is just afraid to truly commit.Exactly. I’d reward this comment if I could.

Lemon's circumstance are of her own making. The whole switching is just added on top, which is FORCING her to engage with them. Which means he wouldn't have done anything without it.Yeah, while Lemon grapples with her complicated circumstances, Kogahara has definitely been the very model of decisiveness![]()
