good manga, but
it'd be cool if the mc went back in Time again to Say to Rin that he likes her in the live (the Real ending is still good though, even if it's sad)

It's a touching piece of work. I enjoyed reading this manga. It leaves a sense of bittersweet melancholy in the aftermath.

I think both the MC Satoshi and Rin actually travel back to the past together which is why Rin started acting differently from before in the second take. There were quite some parts in the manga that hinted on this.

Both Satoshi and Rin didn't realized that each other have past memories, so they both missed out on the opportunity to confirm their feelings with each other and start dating. A bit sad that MC couldn't confess his feelings to Rin in the end of the second take, but I can understand why he didn't do it. I felt that by not confessing, it makes the story richer and the plot feels more whole and complete.

Was really really good until the last chapter imo where it faltered. This was written so wonderfully too. Oh well
I'm tired of bitch-made MCs that can't man tf up and say how they feel. Fuck off Satoshi!

The story was... alright. It felt rushed near the end, almost like they were warned about being axed and decided "Fuck it, scrap shit and finish this in a somewhat decent way".


For example, it felt like it was being hinted that Rin ALSO went back in time or, at least, had memories of the future. Especially with all those changes to the past, including the fact she started being more forward with her feelings towards him. I expected him to, at least, admit his feelings to her on the rooftop near the end since it wouldn't have been so bad then.

The story tried to end on a high note, but that note ended up being sour. With how the story was near the beginning, I'm going to assume that the story was axed VERY prematurely, as it felt like we still had more developments to go through. I have a feeling this was supposed to, AT LEAST, be 20-30 chapters to allow for more development and such. Overall, not a bad story but it was clearly NOT the story the author was going with at the beginning, at least not completely.

I'm fairly certain that this is a case of three timelines. It's the only way that things would make sense. The first timeline is the original, in which the heroine had a VERY strong impression that the mc liked the class rep. In this timeline, the heroine had the exact same plan as the mc, which is to pretend like her feelings don't exist but in this case so that the mc doesn't fall in love with her and end up with the class rep instead. This is the only logical explanation as to why she would have such a strong reaction to the mc confessing to her at the end. She's not angry at the mc but angry at herself for messing up at the last step when every one of her friends were supposed to move on happily ever after. The third timeline is when the mc goes back in time. The mc should be going back to the original timeline where the heroine hasn't regressed in time. She isn't in her third loop, instead she's in her original state and the inconsistencies that she had is exactly because she didn't have the benefit of foresight. This timeline kind of shows up why she might've thought that the mc liked the class rep, and it really might've been the case that the mc originally liked the class rep in the first timeline. That's why the heroine was shocked and angry that she ended up inadvertently changing the mc's future "for the worse" by making him like her back in her second loop. Now in this third timeline, which is the ending we've seen, the mc returns to the original timeline finds the resolution where both of them can move on without strong regrets, and it's one where they end up having to hide their feelings from each other.
I think this theory makes sense and kind of salvages this manga for me, but honestly it was really quite the hectic writing near the end. Even if by some miracle I managed to the hit right on the nail with this theory, that would still be a minus from this manga's rating in my opinion because they clearly could've portrayed it a lot better instead of such a hectic ending. Even if we ignore the fact that they clearly planned to explore more about the heroine's point of view, they still set up so many things that they did not have the time to finish like apparently how the drummer gets hurt or they get dragged into the bassist's family troubles, not to mention how the class rep liked the mc. Given maybe one or two more volumes this would've been quite a decent manga but unfortunately it looks like they got axed and had to rush it so at the end of the day, I really can't hold it against them. Such a shame but it is what it is.

I thought it was obvious that he was only hiding his feelings because she had previously seemed broken by them.
