LMAO I knew they would get caught up sharing food XD

 

[riellyster]

Too cute.

 

[micz7ryu]

Aight now I’m really enjoying they’re interactions

Yeah, the fun part is that they're already at almost couple-level, and in some ways past that, so they lack a lot of the usual awkwardness we see in similar series. In this case to their detriment. Although they could just say they did know each other well before starting to date. Wouldn't even be a lie.

 

[Nermie01]

I honestly don't even remember or understand why they can't just say that they're childhood friends who decided to start dating? Like, who would care? If anything, it would make any other guy who was holding out hope of dating the girl to give up because they clearly never had a chance in the first place, since she's liked her childhood friend for so long.

 

[Tired_Man]

They're in 100% synchronization.

 

[0Zion]

Shut up! It's so cute!

 

[MiguelH224]

So....is there a special reason why they can't tell them they're childhood friends who recently started dating?


Or is it that people just can't fathom the idea that a boy and girl could be friends for that long without dating??

technically, it's the opposite: the Westermarck effect suggests these two friends would be unlikely to be attracted to each other BECAUSE they were friends at such a young age.

If we assume people are aware of this, then yes, saying "we were childhood friends and are now dating" is a weaker cover story.

so that's why childhood friends never win in romcoms

 

[RichardPercival]

Them sharing food so smoothly was adorable.

But yeah, I had the same thought as everyone else. Why don't they just say that they're childhood friends? Or at least just say they've been neighbors for years. It'd be a lot more believable as to why such a beautiful, popular girl suddenly started going out with the loser, gloomy, dull otaku.

 

[zerio]

Aah that for sharing is too cute

If there's one thing I've learned from degenerate romcoms, it's that Japanese people do not experience the Westermarck effect
