It's insane how little interest I have into her <_<.. Chapter was genuinely painful to read, I hate the trope of trying to paint the ex-bully as innocent and misunderstood 😒
Contrary to what I was wishing from the last chapter - sadly Ririsa is not gonna be a true friend (maybe for now)
But now it seems that she has Kusunoki on her sights, MMC will most likely get reeled in soon.

Did we read the same chapter?
She literally was asking herself if Kusonoki could be useful to her halfway through the chapter and it literally ends with her rejecting reality and substituting her own that "no that girl can't be pure and innocent"
The bully redemption arc will probably still happen but this chapter aint it chief
Well guess that's the kind of "antagonist" we would find in that setting (still better than the lesbian or male rival trope with their side of ntr imo) heh
This manga is definitely high-school slice of life distilled to its bare tropes. It's so on the nose it almost becomes a parody of itself.
Another weird thing about it is that despite being classified as a josei, it has far too many elements and design choices you usually see in shounen/seinen mangas.
Snake eyed bitch was all set to drop her... Until the end. I guess FMC is going to eventually change her through sheer force of being so incredibly pure and innocent she comes off looking a bit dimwitted.
