@Rimmy right?? Also, here I was thinking this was a pretty cute chapter overall. And the 'drama' at the end isn't even anything big. 'Oh, Sumika's fans are going to do whatever', who cares, that doesn't affect her relationship with Ito at all, so it's pretty minor stuff in the grand scheme of things.
Hell, this 'drama' even makes for a good setup for a "no, she doesn't have a boyfriend, because... She has a girlfriend!" scenario (doubtful, but one can dream lol).
