Error spotted, page 8, first Rihito bubble: "Even then, that's skill impressive." Pretty sure it should be "still" instead.
Page 13, "Tresure" is no good. "Treasure" is better. :)

rabbit... rabbits... like rabbits... hmmmmmmm :worry:
Y'know, when she mentioned that, it made me think about a certain other bunny girl (Usami) in a certain 100 girlfriends manga. She's also always "lonely" and seeks out others... "She will panic, run away in tears, and want to kill herself if she feels lonely, just like a rabbit." (Source: https://100kanojo.fandom.com/wiki/Shiina_Usami) And well, the parallel with Noa-senpai here is easy to make... >_>

I swear this bitch is going to be too easy to gaslight, manipulate, and taken advantage of (not in a sexual kind of way). She's like a hair's breadth to becoming a yandere.
Based on what she said, she was taken advantage in the past then discarded

thanks for the chapter. I too am curious as to what clusterfuck her previous relationships were like. Also, I think there's an error in "treasure"; it was spelt with the a missing.

What the hell were Noa's previous relationships like considering this is what she calls "friendship"?
Probably not too dissimilar from this one. Specially since she is basically in denial about loving him.

Thinking about it more, those past ones mightve been less intense considering they were less reciprocal. Rihito here actually responds and likes her back in his own way. The exes mostly just wanted her body and money

He does, when he was answering about the family dinner situation, he took a bit to state his feelings rather than just ending up on "we do it every year anyway".

It's not whether he doesn't want to be in the family dinner

It's whether he wants to be with Noa today
I love how Rihito and Noa have the exact opposite of each other's issues.
He really needs to open up more and she really needs to be more reserved

She's a virgin though. It was confirmed on the earlier chapters. She never got to have sex on her relationships because they ended too fast or because she got scared because the guys were rough.
That makes absolutely no sense if you know people like her even a little bit who are starved for validation and attention. She also has a massive fear of abandonment. So lets be honest, we all know the real reason why the virgin confirmation is there.

Exactly : if Noa is too impulsive, Rihito apathy is borderline sociopathic !

Hell ! If we didn’t saw the way he just adores the family dog, I would be convinced our boi is completely unable of empathy towards others…
Dude is just chilling living his life, competent and fulfilled in his career, stable living situation, has friends and positively engages with other people. He is very patient with Noa but has opinions and boundaries (like the daily Line message cap). He's literally just a normal guy...

There is a thin Line between Patience and just not giving a f*ck.

Even asking for the Line Limits was kind if a character development for him.

I can’t wait for the mind break arc of making her watch, front row seats as his #1 Best Friend (just like she wanted!) as he dates, marries, and has kids with another girl

Oh so good, so good. Perhaps Reni will do? Just for added insult to injury

that absolutely makes sense because the joke is that noa is so impossibly annoying that even nanpas are like "what the fuck is this" and run. the entire premise of the manga revolves around her being the most annoying person to ever exist, it's completely on brand for her to be a virgin.

He doesn't EVER not care. Like ever. Throughout the whole manga.

Few examples: chapter 1 he doesn't want to get involved with her because he wants to conserve energy for his own alone time, typical introvert stuff, but then is moved by her passion and agrees to be friends. Chapter 2, Noa asks if she can call him by his first name and he says no. Then he relents after seeing her become really sad. Chapter 3, he was bothered by Noa being so attention seeking which comes up many times later on too, like not wanting to spend everyday of summer living with her. Chapter 5 the team leader asks if he's dating Noa and he's clearly irked by that and tells his boss he's annoying. There was a chapter(s) where he doesn't like her being too close physically.

These are just stuff I skimmed from quickly re-reading the first few chapters, and it's fairly consistent throughout. He's clearly opinionated, but is simply patient.

yes, but honestly you can't fault him for it. Animanga fans tend to take the idea of people being in previous relationships... badly.

God, Noa is so annoying. And Rihito is so deadpan. I LOVE THEM BOTH
