Writing gets worse with every chapter, good premise but everyone around him is so beyond apologetic that it's completely unrealistic, and just makes him seem like the goof.
I wish it author would actually write a good reason the girls want to make things right, like if the truth came to light somehow and they want to improve their reputation now, but he doesn't care.
But as it is, it's just not real at all.
I mean, I wouldn't say they are beyond apologetic. Half the time the girls behave like its his damn fault that he doesn't forget the past and welcomes their love with open arms. When he harshly ignores them or outright lectures them about the bad shit he has been through they cry, cause they probably start to internalize that they hurt MC really bad with what they did/or didn't do, and that their strategy to wait it out and go back to MC and befriend him is failing pretty hard.
Its kinda sad, that at least in the manga, non of them actually even bothered to try fixing anything really. They are probably scared shitless that if they tell what really happened, that MC was innocent in all the dramas, all the eyes will land on them and people will start hating on them. So they created the alliance, and decided to basically stop everyone else from interfering with MC and his new friend, so that she could heal his broken heart. Probably hoping that when he will be fixed, he will go back to his old self and associate with them again, thou last chapters tells me that he will try fixing stuff with his step-sis, library girl seems like she "gave up" and just mentally thanked new girl as she is just happy that her old love is again happy/normal, childhood friend thou got hit by that realization that there is no space for her probably any more and cried.
There seems to be like 6 girls total that fucked him up. Everything started with childhood friend when people jumped on him and she just "run with it". Sister used that to "isolate MC" to have his attention for himself but that basically nuked her and her mom relationship with him cause he lost any trust for them. The worst or just most fucked mentally one seems to be the library girl, cause like she was in love with him, but him jumping on her to save her confused her, and then all the attention gone to her head so much she became like "idiotic JK" talking about herself in 3rd person, behaving like queen bee "not liking the new girl", etc. The last two are more like "bitches" who just pranked him with at least one probably having feelings for him before friends forced her to do the pranking.
Imma probably read the novel as my first novel, just cause I am really intrigued by how different or maybe better "written"/directed the novel will be. Cause this as fast as was cute as fuck at the end, and made me want to punch the hoes at start, its still seems to rushed, skipped to much.
