Goodness gracious, honestly this just seems like an emotional ticking time bomb waiting to go off. Well Ichika had plenty of chances of escaping, so I can't say I'm concerned for her anymore. So long as we're over the backstories.
I don't even remember anymore how this whole thing started, but I somehow still don't want to let go of this series...
You didn't miss much honestly.

But a recap in case you're interested:

Kawase (girl that mc likes) and her kissing friend saw what looked like Rei (Kawase's older sister) kissing Ichika (MC), which stirred up some drama and misunderstandings... So afterwards, Kissing friend decided to have a sleepover at her place and invited Kawase and Ichika (who only agreed because she wanted to avoid having Kawase and Kissing friend together by themselves, and somewhat interested in what tales they had). Kissing Friend (I know her name is Shiori, but I don't really care), accuses Ichika of seducing Rei, but they learned that the kiss didn't happen (I think it was like a light peck next to Ichika's mouth). So upon realizing that, Ichika asked why don't Kissing Friend just go out with Rei.

To which we have nearly 17-20 chapters of flashback that showed how Kissing Friend first hated Rei, but then fell for Rei, and then Rei and her started dating. But Kawase had a fit, so Rei broke up with her. So Kawase and Kissing friend started kissing each other for reasons, and this continued until Ichika discovered them and setting everything in motion.

Something along those lines anyway.

I'm tired of commenting that I can't remember what was going on every time a chapter uploads.

It's not the TL's fault, cause I remember Isekai Samurai just fine and that one also takes forever to upload.

It's this story itself that makes me zone out. Author went too far in making the character's unlikable, to the point that I stopped caring about them.

I DON'T want them to have a happy ending, I want the FMC to just leave all of these toxic assholes behind and find someone better in life.

When the majority of the chapters are 4 pages, with the very rare treat of getting 5, or in this case, SIX PAGES, not much seems to actually happen in any one given chapter. Or it's like being in really bad start-and-stop traffic.

p.3 phrase doesn't sound right...maybe "ended up [with her] beside myself"? Or maybe I don't understand the meaning of that phrase

Flashback started at 36... :fml:

I think that qualifies it as more of a Flashback Namek or Flashback Elevator (for a more recent reference) :haa:
I read in another comment that it has been going on for a year and I think to myself 'no way it's been a year of this single arc, it must be exaggeration'.
But boy oh boy, the MC entered this house of terrors close to exactly a year ago and the arc itself started even before.
I got to respect what the author is trying to do/express, but they fumbled this incredibly hard.
