Kusunoki's Flunking Her High School Glow-Up - Ch. 35 - Even if Hebikawa is sick, why does it concern me?

Yes, all her redeeming qualities like… like uh… um…

For real people will see an appealing character design and forgive literally anything. She’s manipulative, insidious and cruel. I hope her and step-daddy have a long and horrible life together
She’s still more interesting than the fmc. She always has been. Her appearance every time makes this series more entertaining.

I mean, I don't particularly like Hebikawa.

However, had he walked away from an aquaintance who is visibly sick without even asking, he would have been complete trash.

So I'm fine with this. He did the right thing.
I can see both sides personally. Sure checking on her is the kind thing to do - not sure I'd call it the right thing - but she's already shown herself to be a snake (it's literally in her name), so why waste any energy on her whatsoever? People like that will weaponise the kindness of others in my experience.

In the MC's shoes I'd probably check that she's not dying or anything, but fuck doing any sort of favour.

She mostly just seems to stir shit up whenever she appears. Sure it can make for an interesting story, but it's not exactly a good character trait. Interesting doesn't always mean good, and in this case the FMC is by far the better option for the MC. Objectively.

You're right that you don't have to help those people, but keep it in perspective. She led him on and was fake nice to him, there are much worse ways to be bullied. That was also middle school. There children, not grown adults treating each other this way.

I'm glad to see MC help her because I want to see Hebikawa get mind broken (out of her world view that everyone is a piece of shit).
If that was all what she did, I'd agree with you, but just this school-year she physically cornered him when he got sick (from being close to her) and pried for her own amusement, and later she called him out for a talk just to roast him over that bullying, doing her "but for me it was Tuesday" impression. While doing that, she also said she'll keep being close to Kusunoki, which, considering what MC knows about snake-girl's character and that Hebikawa already made her bawl her eyes once, can reasonably sound to him as a potential danger to his best friend.

We as a readers privy to their thoughts even know that Hebikawa still wants to make Kusunoki "show her true face", which, considering the last time she tried that, sure sounds like danger to Kusunoki, just like MC suspected. That would make MC reasonable for avoiding helping her unless she's, like, bleeding out or something similar.

In fairness she’s bleeding, it’s just not lethal

Dudes crying all because of an opinion. Even funnier when a lot others share the same even outside here. Hebi brings life to this manga. She’s more interesting than the fmc.

it's simple, us snekchads don't go out of our way to spite Kusunoki, we just call her boring and move on
same can't be said for snekhaters though
One character is flawed but ultimately a good person who is working hard to better themselves, the other has no redeeming qualities, toys with people for kicks, and actively seeks to bring people down to her level. Snek girl will ultimately continue hurting the characters we like so the less we see of her the happier we are.

Being “interesting” does not preclude you from hate. Throwing a pipe bomb through someone‘s window sure is “interesting” but that doesn’t make it good.

So does a sudden rain shower but at least that has the decency to water the plants.

Well that’s your opinion. I just find her more interesting than the fmc. There is nothing else to it. You don’t have to keep going at it. It’s just an opinion. Take a chill pill.

Huh? Really? This is genuinely one of the first times I've seen periods mentioned in a manga.

Btw, does anyone know a good romance manga with a vibe like Keisuke and Hebikawa have? Or otherwise, a classic “enemies to lovers” theme?
If you want "WTF, why is Cunt blushing?", ToraDora's a classic. If you want "Turbo-virgin and Ojou-sama hit it off", read Hi Score Girl. If you don't mind lewd and horny, there's always Nana And Kaoru.
