Maybe this is wishful thinking but I kinda don't think the series will go through with Aki finding a new love interest. Like pacing wise, why start the series with a chapter in the present then flashback to this big character defining moment, and then resolve it before getting back to the present
I feel like it’s still too earlier to decide on the pacing & what the author has in mind for this series.
While I do agree that the author is tackling our main character’s big moment so early on. I feel like it’s necessary as Koharu just died. I feel the author might want to tackle Koharu’s inner struggle of what love means to her.
Koharu seemed like someone who puts others first before herself, as seen in the previous chapters. It makes it seem like she wasn’t worthy of love, or even loved herself, until her best friend confessed. Even then, I’m not too sure Koharu had romantic feelings for Aki.
Koharu probably just wants to see Aki happy, living life, and moving on from the past at this point. Which makes her the perfect cupid to help her best friend
Long ramble but I’m looking forward to this series and excited to see the other 3 girl’s stories/backgrounds & how this cupid system works!
