ALSO something I just realized, the final scene is definitely set to be at the start of summer when Makabe flew to Sapporo to meet Aki. The author fully intended to make another sequel, so we're doomed, this series will never end lol.This moron... he was on the freaking verge of unwittingly sacrificing his relationship to buy a ring (talk about defeating the purpose of saving up for a ring), and he almost carelessly lost it!
"No matter how kind you are"
Fortunately for Koiwai he isn't that kind anymore. And he's just a lucky bastard now. I know I'm repeating myself, but Aki is a saint to have put up with how he treated her thus far, and in the end forgave him just as easily. She really had to take action, going out of her way to save her failing relationship with a guy who didn't seem to care until confronted. I guess her reward for her steadfast love is a marriage proposal from him and a ring which she could use to passively deter most would-be suitors. I would've loved this engagement if it wasn't for how badly he acted in the near entirety of this arc.
Yes, this idiot deserves that bad reputation from the swirling rumors in university (that Koiwai definitely wasn't involved in, given how she worked to help Aki here, this girl deserves to enjoy a bit of schadenfreude and a chance at a new love interest who's better than him). He shouldn't even be thinking of rizzing other girls and being popular with the ladies when he's supposed to be already in love and set to marry his girlfriend in 4 years. I don't remember high schooler Masamune having playboy tendencies. Honestly, it doesn't bode well for her with how much his character was ruined here.
Good lord, I would've enjoyed this university arc much more if it was about Kojuurou and Neko instead, letting me assume everything was going well between Aki and a more mature Masamune who never regressed into this frivolous idiot...
Or maybe I should just pretend this "sequel"/"arc" that nobody asked for doesn't exist... I can only credit this for at least not making the title a lie in the final chapter.
