@anoman:
In case you missed it: The "Mutou" you want for word games in this case is this one, "sugarless".
Manga name basically reads as "sugarless and sugar" / "unsweetened and sugar".
An irrelevant aside: In this case only I know this particular word off the top of my head is because of an old Eyesheild 21 OVA (or something? Maybe it was one of those weird Shounen Jump shorts they only showed for like events or something) that involved a certain character swindling a mayor into, uh... hosting a football match on false premises over the phone? Only it isn't revealed that it's that character until the end; they call themselves "Mutou" over the phone, and near the end there's a camera shot cut to the character's sugarless gum as they answer the phone (with the fake accent they'd been using). Without translator's notes, I mightn't have had a damn clue what was going on XD. And the only reason I remember the darn word is the character answered the phone with the most grating voice possible, "hai, mutou~ desu", a sound clip which will be stuck with me forever.
That was it. That was the whole story.

Yaknow what, sure, I'm into this. Usually how this sort of thing goes is we're meant to project on the guy who gets ruthlessly flirted with by a quirky girl. Yall know the type, your anjou-sans, your uzaki-chans, your nagatoro-sans. This is that, but gender-swapped so the guy is quirky, and the girl is the relatable one. It's honestly pretty refreshing.
