Yeh I was initially thinking we’d get him going down a “I’m not good enough for her” arc, but if he’s thinking “we are the same”, I’m now wondering how that plays out instead.Hmm interesting parallels between Manaka and Ueno, I wonder if Chisaki sees the similarity
To be fair to ueno, nobody was expecting that shit. He could’ve well just been frozen from shock, and considering his character so far, that seems fitting as a reaction to something he wouldn’t ever expect. Now what I really want is for them to call the police on this guy, because he’s unironically a sexual assaulterthis one is really something, at least Ueno just sucker punch him, instead standing there, I don't know why he just grit his teeth rather take action
sure, but it was definitely framed more like he was subconsciously devaluing her because of it, like he was hurt and betrayed by it, which is stupid. if you look at the yankee girl, she also shows shock in one panel (the one before she grimaces and grabs the dude), but the facial expression and the eyes are different, and it's not just because they're 2 different characters or that their personalities are different. it's more about their thoughts; he has pitch black, hollow eyes because he feels betrayed, in addition to just being shocked. the way he focuses on the word "developed", too.To be fair to ueno, nobody was expecting that shit.

It's funny to me that Tsubomi is still the only one who came to that realization and felt slightly remorseful(hence why she stopped herself from calling Ueno her friend). Just another reason why she's best girl of the bunch.Also, I guess I hope Chisaki realized that she is as bad if not even way worse than this douchebag, she clearly can see that he's a sexual assaulter and an evil bastard and gets angry at him for Moka's sake but doesn't seem to realize that she does all that with Ueno too and even physically and mentally bullied him for years with her friends.
if he doesn't then someone needs to slap him.Chapter 52 spoilers:
Ueno and Emo-boy have a 1-on-1 talk; take this with a grain of salt because of Google Translate, but I think Ueno is planning to protect Moka-chan from that guy. But again, take this with a grain of salt because of Google Translate.
