idk, i didn't mind that one too much. obviously, they haven't gone into her backstory yet, but it's pretty clear what kind of person she is. she seems to be painting because she's good at it and she can't let down the family since her grandfather is a legend. i haven't got the sense that she's doing it out of pure enjoyment, and that's what was so shocking for her to hear. MC doesn't have all the baggage she does, and is just doing it cause he wants to. i think that was part of why gramps decided to take him in as a student. he wants his granddaughter to be able to paint with joyGotta love how characters are deeply touched by the most random sentences in manga. It's a good enjoyable read so far, but man are characters overly dramatic at times.
"I think I like painting"
"Holy crap! It's about to go down!"
yeah, that was really out of nowhere. although it makes sense that he was hanging around all the time, seemed weird for grandpa to just have a butler for some reasonwait, so nishihama is also his pupil?
