I liked the theories of her crushing on MC more than another annoying character entering the mix. Should've known better, still another common trope but at least it wouldn't have been as annoying... Probably
The pitchfork store is going to have a field day with this one.
I should have reserved mine. I held out more hope than was deserved

I should have preordered mine. :ROFLMAO:

But seriously speaking, a lot of the author’s decisions in terms of characters and what they do are perplexing, which makes me want to complain about it. However, I do keep coming back and read more because it is perplexing.
Reader(s) and series having a relationship like Marika and Hachiouji I guess.

Nah what the fuck, why does this bitch exist ? Really you’re wasting pages for her instead of focus on mc (the glasses guy who has 2 bubbles in the whole chapter) ? I’d rather go back on the side couple please.
Thanks for the translation

What does the author expect us to feel here? It would be one thing if she was an actual celebrity, but she's just a normal girl who's popular in her school, as this oshi and fan shit is so fucking cringe.
It's because regular Japanese idol culture is cringe and toxic, but they see it as normal behavior and even outright encourage it. So, seeing this shit in a high-school setting isn't too far off from their perspective.

"Think about the fans" only makes sense to me when theres a financial relationship. This girl isn't selling merch. Isn't doing concerts. Isn't charging for meet and greets.

So...why exactly does she owe her fans anything? What are they gonna do? Boycott her basketball games, lol.

I get that I'm not the target audience, but the concept of having to live my life according to the expectations of strangers who decided to be my fans by themselves is completely alien to me.
