would anyone kindly help me understand why everybody is sad as fuck in this manga right now?
Cliff Notes version:

During Komiket, the Haniel cosplay went viral and Marin was swamped by fans taking pictures, but Gojo suddenly felt like Marin was out of reach from him and it depressed him.

Marin's Dad shows up and further complicates things by making Gojo think he's happy that he takes care of Marin like a housekeeper. Finally the two of them get together and talk. Gojo tells her that he's grateful that her cosplay has helped his training but he wants to accomplish his dream of achieving the level of Hina Doll Craftsman before Gramps shuffles off his mortal coil, which makes Marin think that her cosplay requests have cost him precious time for learning the craft.

As she's pondering this, a call from his cousin further destroys the mood as she tells him that Non-Chan, the girl who broke little Gojo all those years ago by telling him she hates him, has come to visit. And she's standing there in front of the store waiting for him.

Then we get a flashback to when Gojo first lost his parents. He first lived with his cousin's family, but was too depressed to do anything except roll himself up in his futon. Non-Chan would come over and read to him, trying to cheer him up, but a while after, Gramps brought him to the Hina Doll store and it awakened his desire to follow in Gramps's footsteps. About a week before he went to live with Gramps as his apprentice, Non-Chan learned that he was moving, and it was clear that she liked him, but now, Gojo was fixated on making Hina Dolls and she exploded, calling him weird and saying that she hated him, breaking his artistic heart, and making him the timid introvert we met at the start of the series.

Wait, why is Gojo getting the talking too? Wasn't he sad about Marin being too far from him, and now he's pouting about something else???
I don't think he's pouting, but rather, he's overthinking again, as he ALWAYS does. He hasn't had that "A-Ha!" Moment where he realizes his feelings for Marin are deeper than he wants to admit to himself and that he needs her in his life. (Nagatoro fans here know this as "Chapter 107" of that series)

Hopefully, this chat with the costume shop owner will help Gojo figure it out...

Aren't they cousins
No, small Gojo went to live with his cousins after accident and she was a neighbour of said cousins and in turn his as well for that time.

Tho even if she was his cousin, manga has been playing it in such a way with her that I would still expect them getting together to be acceptable in the setting. What we will actually get tho is a tiresome drama where Marin seperates herself from Gojo and that childhood friend tries to help them get back together while also developing feelings for Gojo. Romance in this manga is so crap

I'll keep my fingers crossed that we might solve this drama in a few chapters, but I'm still worried something bad might happen.

So, it's going to be a quick resolution, eh? I hope it will. Gojou really need to talk heart-to-heart with his childhood friend, Marin, and also his grandpa. Yes, his grandpa is probably the crux of everything, because Gojou feels he owes his life to his grandpa.

This is basically an entirely different manga from what everyone here liked in the beginning, really highlighting how important having a good editor is to serialized authors. Unfortunately, this series does not seem to have a good editor, so here we are.

"There's plenty of X ppl doing this job so you're not needed" you could say the same about average office workers/salarymen too unless the turnover rate is so fast/often because of the 'black companies' to where like if 20 ppl applied to a job , 75% of them would end up quitting or being exhausted from overwork lol

Well, they're related(?) so it shouldn't rly be
an issue with a 'crush' then again i think this author did some kinda bro-con thing? But oh well
