When Will Ayumu Make His Move? - Vol. 16 Ch. 213 - The 213th Move

[Aldric3178]

why does the best girl has to lose tho. i know she's the side character, but I've been rooting for her all this time. and through all that, she gets nothing if not pain. rest in pieces, my ship.

I hope there's a spin off covering Rin and some other guy/girl. I really like her a lot.

"Rin, Thank you for falling for me."

He said with the deadest/scariest eyes ever seen.

Same. Sometimes if I look at his eyes for too long, I get that feeling that it's the abyss staring back at me.

Anybody who saw Ayumu's absolutely unwavering feelings for Urushi and actually thought he'd choose someone else over her in the end is completely delusional.

 

[Scorix]

Bro is literally making the wrong choice.

What exactly do you want Ayumu to do? Lmao. All he’s been is direct with Rin when asked about his feeling and she’s taken it gracefully? This is literally one of the healthiest rejections between friends I’ve seen.

And it better be the last time he has to do this, cause it certainly has not been the first.

Author just clowning on Rin Fans now should have been fine the first time but no Author likes pulling a big middle finger for best girl shippers

[Zaerox]

this was very weak, author always seems to have trouble closing beyond initial concept

 

[themanthemyth]

best girl loses as per usual

also man they really had us going in that 2nd to last page huh

I did not think she added much to the manga when she was introduced and I don't really think there's much to her now either other than making Ayumu look arguably mean or insensitive.

And I don't think she was an awful character, just didn't like her role.

That being said it could have been a lot worse, at least we didn't get an awful jealousy arc out of it.

Thanks for the chapter!

 

[Umbrum]

I really like Rin, she's prob the one that has grown in a more noticeable way, even if she didn't win and her role from the beginning was just to get rejected I don't regret reading all I did about her.
If we got a manga with Rin as the mc i would def read it, be it romance centered or not, I just really like how forward and honest she became once she confessed, it was a bit painful because of how great her interactions were but I think I'm okay with that precisely because of how great her interactions were.

This is ultimately the thing about how romance stories are framed: in reality this isn't the end of the world for Rin. In reality, people get rejected all the time, and "losing" here doesn't mean she'll be a spinster for the rest of her life. In practice, she will most likely be sad for a while, but once she sorts her feelings out, she'll move on and find someone else and the process will repeat.
Heck, people fall for people who are already taken all the damn time too; the human mind is messy like that. Now that she's been definitively shot down, that should help her start the process of moving on.

Fuck off, author-san.

Yeah, personally liked her a lot but I totally see this side of it. She's only here to be a conflict to Ayumu's confession. I will say, in defense of Ayumu, he told her what he's about. She did confess and he did reject her already. And she already knew she was going to get rejected. At some point, it's on her and she also sees and understands this. But the heart wants what it wants. But, yeah, she's just here for that conflict and not much more and that's kinda on the writer.
