Now that the "confess your love" drama is over, it's nice to see "conflicting personalities" drama. Gojo not wanting to hold hands in public, but then acquiescing to the "birthday cake glasses" to avoid giving Marin two "no"s in a row.

Author's leaning too hard into making Gojo a self-conscious introvert.

You can have him play the role of the introvert in a way that doesn't make them look basically incompatible. Just compare how excited Marin has been since the confession and how disinterested Gojo seems, especially given how enamored he supposedly was with her for most of the series.

We really need an author to finally subvert the trope of the shy non-intimate MC. It really wears on the charm of any romance series, this one especially after all the build up to them getting together.

C'mon, they're dating already!
But "Shy non-intimate" MC's are still highly popular especially in the Anime community and female viewers as they consider it cute.

From what I have understood, female readers/viewers still prefer reading/watching,
  • "shy non-intimate" type as boyfriend for non-physical romance
  • "hot looking" type to show off and some physical interaction
  • "rough aggressive gangster" type for bed activities

"It's too early for that!"

Is there a more retarded, dated, pretentious sentence in highschool romcoms? (they use it in even so called "adult" romances too) I don't think there is. Whenever it is used, you KNOW the stalling will be off the charts.

Also Gojo looks extremely uninterested (almost forced) in these past couple of chapters.

Did we get robbed of "Valentine's day event"? I can't remember if they spent so much time in angst that they confessed after 14/02 or we lost our chance at "Marin's disaster chocolate"

This comment section:
The Japanese are... (long painful tropy psychoanalysis.)

Also this section:
He needs therapy and medication!

Also this section:
SEX SEX SEX SEX!

Also this section:
The dude is gay!

[It's pretty clear what the US cultural baggage is by the comments at least.]

Gojo wears traditional clothing and Marin wears very modern styles. Gojo is both horny and embarrassed at the same time. Marin is both horny and shameless at the same time. This is the obvious setup of the entire manga. You are reading chapters that are the payoff of this obvious setup. It's basically a manzai formula.

Oof. That was rough to read. Gojo is firmly stuck in a past era.

I love manga, but man do some of the tropes feel weird in the modern era (and to Westerners in general where we don't have an issue with first name basis, unmoveable hierarchies and rampant feelings of shame over everything). We do have our own problems, though
