I'm on his side when it comes to indirect kisses. So fucking what? They already kissed anyway, even if it's "by accident". And it's so overdone and forced anyway.
Seeing this going so long without an update also reminded me of how shitty Kaiten Books's release pace is. It's been two freaking years since they officially translated volume 2 and there hasn't been any update since. I don't think I've seen an official translation actually drop a series before.
