eh it would've been a little weird if it was just ruri and shu. wouldve felt like it was forcing it. don't think they're close enough yet. but yeah this chapter would've been the one to strengthen their relationship. although i dont mind the way it went. nothing was forced and like someone said, a flag was planted. i like a good slow burnThis was a great little arc. I agree with @mtagami tho, Ichijou didn't have to be here at all, shoulda been a pure Ruri-Shuu "episode" or at least more focused on the two. Not complaining too much tho, ended well.
