Cut the guy some slack, he's gone from a nervous wreck without an ounce of self-esteem unable to say two words to Anjou without fumbling to a slightly less nervous and insecure teen who got a veritable hottie of a girlfriend and is willing to publicly defend her in, what, less than a year in-universe (even if he still fumbles his 5th and 6th consecutive words to her)?He talked! Communication in a relationship! The golden snitch of romance manga, yet... it can be barely considered that. He mumbled a few things and it ended up with Anjou having to, again, pick up the slack in the relationship.
I like that we have at least some character development. But this is still seriously one sided.
Agreed with everything else but how is he an oddity? He's pretty typical for these kinds of stories.He's already an oddity in rom-com already, is normal to have aspects which still need some polishing from the more self-confident Anjou.
I disagree. He said quite clearly what he was thinking and what he wanted.He talked! Communication in a relationship! The golden snitch of romance manga, yet... it can be barely considered that.
