I love the character development in this manga

 

[invaliduserlolidkbruh]

istg I can't remember the character name, so when they're talking idk who they refer to

Tbh author failed here do you know why? Bc the story is turning into like they were just small mistakes but those are not mistakes. First the girl who got hurt when she fell herself didnt try to solve the problem even once just stayed away from him even tho they played so much together before, she abandoned him bc if she said the truth people were gonna aba done and hate her too. Second the sister wanted attention so told the rumors as if they were facts and destroyed his home life too. Third at a situation like earthquake if someone you know jumps on you, you would thank them for protecting you first but this girl also enjoyed getting pampered. The girl who fake confessed him, did it not bc she is need to do it. She did it bc she got afraid from losing her shitty friends. All these girls are hypocrites and now they want to help him and pomeko? Excuse you, they dont need you just stay away. All the girls here writed so shallow, only pomeko and maybe mother since she doesnt know anything (but still who would believe what a kid said and punish other kid without trying to learn the truths).

Man this shit pisses me off

"a mistake"? You traumatised him to a point of no return

 

[Calebchan170201]

These girls have the iq of a fucking goldfish, motherfucker(s) had like 8 years to apologise, one is even his sister, literally living under the same roof.

 

[ZeroNihilum]

"We have to take actions that will make Makoto back to his older self" lmao she really said we can fix him

 

[th3sh4k4]

Every single one of them knew from the beginning they did wrong, some due being too young is understandable, but of course self preservation and sometimes playing 'the victim' is more convenient, for them the guilt was light and it's easy to believe everything can be forgiven with an apology 3-4 years later, the lack of empathy is shameless.

 

[nam23]

"How can we help him get back to his old self, and fix his reputation?"
"Maybe explain what really happened to everyone?"
"But then that would hurt OUR reputations! I know, let's try to fix the guy with trust issues and a strong dislike of romance because of us up with the girl we know nothing about!"
Seriously, the only one of the girls I can KIND OF sympathize with is the former bookworm. She didn't accuse him and actually thought he did something. All she knew was that there was an earthquake, he was on top of her, and then everyone was yelling that he was assaulting her. The friend that took years (Maybe) to say "Hey, you know the nice kid that you talked with in the library a lot? The one that's a social outcast (Again) because people saw him on top of you during an earthquake and assumed things? I never told anyone, but he didn't assault you, he protected you!" is a problem though. And as soon as she found that out she went and tried to connect with him, but stopped short of actually trying to do... ANYTHING to help him. Still a terrible person, but she at least had a REASON to distance herself from him unlike the other 2 who were just too cowardly to instantly fix a problem, or trying to LITERALLY MANIPULATE HIM INTO BEING DEPENDANT ON HER.

They didn't tell it when it mattered but there's litterally no point and no way to fix it now which they acknowledge. They re not objecting to trying to reveal it now because they would get bad consequences, they are admitting they didn't do it back then because of it. It is litterally way to late to correct the rumors they helped with regardless of their wish.

They should still not interfere with his life now but they re not planning of getting in his way, the opposite

 

[KatoShuu]

Why a random girl knew about him tried to protect her from the earthquake?

 

[ShatteredWolves]

I was gonna reread this all due to the TL saying they redid their translations but after this chapter and remembering how it ended, I’m good man. Useless ass group of girls and MC and who forgives them for no fucking reason.

Honestly, from past chapters and honestly even still this chapter I'd group Makoto's step-sister more with Nanako and Kisaragi than with Shizuka and Saito

If Haruka gets a ghost of a chance, so should Nanako, lol

It feels like Miyazaki Shizuka kind of put in the most effort to make amends so far, and she didn't have much fault in the initial incident either. Dude tripped, and she tried to say it wasn't his fault. She choked up and got too nervous to set the record straight at first but it seems the story goes back and forth on whether she tried to talk to Makoto throughout middle school or not. But them being in different classes, I can understand the distance. And she said she didn't believe the rumors regarding Makoto and the other girls who ran afoul of him, and did at least eventually apologize, so there's also that. She's pretty nice, all things considered.

The step-mom and step-sister really just kind of. . . sided against him and never actually made any sort of amends for it. And Haruka even admits she basically did it to spite him for hanging out with Shizuka over her. Even in like chapter 2, Haruka was still behaving like it was Makoto's fault or something. And the story makes more sense if they just never really tried until now, because unlike Shizuka, Haruka and her mom have literal constant access to Makoto. They literally share a house. And this situation hasn't been cleared up in over three years? Get out of here with that.

Saito Miyu's incident feels like a freak accident essentially, and I can believe that in the confusion she actually thought something might have happened, actually. But she also seemed to come around and acknowledge her own fault in the situation, or at least the aftermath. . .

----------------------------------

Honestly. . . . For this and the incident with Shizuka I kind of feel like it's at least partly Makoto's fault. I said in another comment that Makoto should have like. . ACTUALLY SPOKE UP about what he was doing? First at least say ANYTHING to the other kids about how he hadn't pushed her. . And then he should have SAID HE WAS GOING TO GET HER BAND-AIDS.

[Actually he did say to the other kids that he wasn't running, but only after he ran off to get the band-aids. Another kid literally told him not to run off and to apologize. It's implied he's at least denying something but it's a little late for that. .]

And at the library incident it's literally the same exact thing. As far as the story has told us so far he has made zero effort to tell anyone that he was trying to protect Saito. . . . Well, at least with the Shizuka incident he was trying to tell his mom. Like yeah, For most of this it's everyone else that's in the wrong, but he could have literally just. . . . Not left Shizuka with out telling her or the other kids what he was doing.

But I do understand that after Shizuka's incident, and the reaction his mom and sister gave him, I do get why he didn't try very hard to get the other students off of his back, but still. . .

Anyway, this comment wasn't supposed to be about Makoto, lmfao

-----------------------------

Kisaragi. . . Like, I'm not gonna defend the fake confession, and also her first conversation with him after that fake confession being another confession is. . Not the most trustworthy way to handle things. But also, Makoto says she was laughing at him back then too but if we actually go back to those pages she literally wasn't, in fact she apologized to him right then and there.

This is why I think Kisaragi is better than Haruka, actually. Dumb kids will do a lot in the face of peer pressure, and she apologized on sight anyway, while Haruka was at home and didn't think to hear out her own step-brother over stupid gossip. Actually wait, it wasn't even that she believed the gossip, or maybe she did, but she get their mom on Makoto's case out of spite.

Anyway-

Nanako. . . Hasn't shown up again, yet, so I dunno what to say about her. But she also. . . her incident felt targeted, so she's probably actually bad news.

I guess if I were to rank these girls from most forgivable to least forgiveable

Shizuka and Miyu are near the top of most forgiveable

Kisaragi's a little messed up and insistent but she already apologized way back, so I dunno

Haruka and Nanako would need the most work to make amends. Haruka could have been ranked higher but she's had over three years to do something and still hasn't really even started.

----------------------
On a separate note, Makoto and Shinozuka's "Not friends" attitude is actually kind of annoying.

Like, yes. They have baggage. But they have similar baggage to each other. They should be able to legitimately bond over that without hiding behind something stupid like that. I know. . . Or rather, I'm half sure they'll get over this soon-ish but it really should not have lasted more than a couple of chapters. . .

 

[DarkStorm98]

Why a random girl know about he tried to protect her from the earthquake?

That is a very good question

Author wrote themselves into a corner [in literally this same chapter?] and had to do something about it. . Or something. . I guess

 

[NotGoingToRage]

Ok like its a fricking earthquake wouldn't you expect to be shaken and shit? like thats the minimum you can expect seriously someone could fall. like dude if 2 people fell at the same time yeah sure one of them protecting the other one you first tend to the ones that could possibly be hurt, that isn't a time at all to think if someone was trying to take advantage of you because mistakes like that happen. Honestly i don't really know if there is a way to properly redeem these people. I don't have much to continue to talk about. FMC is mentally stable but for the other girls maybe some of their Jenga bricks have been taken out. At least if they dont aim for MC again ig thats some sort of atonement.

I don't need them

My real problem with it all is that the girls went “how can we get him to forgive us, but also without risking what we got at his expense?” Talk about being f*cking shallow…
