The Plain Girl Sitting Next to Me

In reference to a woman, “plain” does not merely mean ordinary; it means that she is neither beautiful nor even pretty.

Clearly “地味な” is being widely mistranslated. Go for a word such as “ordinary” or “unremarkable”.

ありがとう先生。 "Ordinary" would be better.

My theory is that Kawase and Shiori were only hooking up because Shiori reminds Kawase of Mori (who I think Kawase secretly likes), and Kawase reminds Shiori of the other black-haired senpai (who Shiori probably likes or has history with). There was a chapter where Shiori said “your glasses are in the way,” and “let your hair down,” I think that’s because she wants Kawase to look more like the other senpai. 🤔

Indeed, ordinary women are not pretty, so what is the issue with using "plain"?

Big trigger that I'd rather leave unspoilered, but technically a twist

involves incest, coping with incestuous thoughts, not quite far enough for the tag at the moment

It's expressed clearly after ch 48. The angst and toxic coping just get progressively worse until the reveal. And after. It could work but I think it's handled poorly and I don't care about the lot as people. MC is the only decent person in the entire cast and deserves respect.

I'm done. I'd recommend you instead read My New Friend Wasn't What I Expected which is even cuter, with a similar start. Or The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn't A Guy At All which has a different start but worries over the "plain girl hiding her style" approach more.

You'll see what I do to you if you don't drop the next chapter
