Well,"Just wandered off somewhere"
He's dead from a brain bleed in a back alley, isn't he?

We actually kind of got that arc in Vol. 3, which focused mostly on Kurumi calling out Naoi's hypocritical behavior and refusing to let her push her away, but I think you're probably right that's where it's headed. Kurumi's been pretty aggro towards Kudou (rightfully so after she refused to help Naoi when Kokoro was choking her lmao), so a potential avenue could be her confronting Kudou directly about Naoi's sudden shift in mood.
Honestly Kurumi and Kudou have a really fun dynamic (not romantic, but the passive aggresive antagonistic banter lol) so I'd love to see them duke it out
I'm a big fan of melodrama when executed well, which is part of why I like this story, but I've enjoyed how their reasonableness with each other is executed in this series. We get these absolutely bonkers situations involving Isanuma, Kokoro, Kudou, etc and with each other they'll be like "... Anyway Naoi/Kurumi, can you explain what's going on here? I'm confused right now."This is largely why this series is so good for me. Each chapter raises a lot of questions, but I feel confident that the author will have satisfying answers and that we'll get them relatively quickly. The pacing in general is great. Compared to other series that like to dangle mysteries and elongate drama plots that end up being super unsatisfying, this one is like a breath of fresh air.
Kurumi does know that actually. Naoi's first name was on the list of girls that needed to turn in the career worksheet in chapter 8. It was purposely obscured for the reader, but other first names were listed, so Kurumi learned it then if she didn't already know.Naoi does remain fairly mysterious to Kurumi - it's not clear she even knows Naoi's first name-
I see, nice catch. It makes sense it would come up at some point in her class president duties, even without that, but I can't imagine her not noticing in that situation. Plus they post exam scores with the names, I think.Kurumi does know that actually. Naoi's first name was on the list of girls that needed to turn in the career worksheet in chapter 8.

I did until I had a teacher in college who graded us primarily on how concise we were. I think I barely pulled a B- on that one. The only thing she liked that I wrote was a pro-cannibal essay she mistook as satire.HOLY ESSAY COMMENT SECTION GODDAMN YALL GET STRAIGHT A'S IN ENGLISH OR SOMETHING
Funny you bring this up, because this is exactly why Kudou's accusation of Naoi spreading the rumor about Kurumi and the teacher should fall apart immediately upon examination. In the first semester, Naoi barely ever came to school. And the few times she did, she wasn't shown to be social or to engage with their class. Plus, Naoi's reputation was bad even back then, since it's likely why Isanuma bailed on bullying Kurumi in chapter 3, since Isanuma was afraid of Naoi due to her delinquent reputation. No one would believe Naoi if she said such a thing about Kurumi, especially prior to the incident in the classroom.Naoi largely operates outside the social network at the school.
It's hard to say what Naoi will do. If it's a breakthrough or a breakdown. Worst case scenario it'll be similar to what happened in chapter 18, and Kudou tries to use Naoi's stress to seduce her.It better just be a conversation, if Naoi goes further with the bitch again I dont even think I want to keep reading…
Just hope nothing happens, was already bad enough when all the happened back thenIt's hard to say what Naoi will do. If it's a breakthrough or a breakdown. Worst case scenario it'll be similar to what happened in chapter 18, and Kudou tries to use Naoi's stress to seduce her.
Though the situations are admittedly somewhat different. In chapter 18 Kurumi was physically trapped, not thinking clearly from her fever, and was under the mistaken assumption that Naoi had already abandoned her and was already sleeping with Kudou.
I have a hard time believing such a similar plot would happen only a volume later. The author even included chapter 19.5 in the volume 4 extras to show how horrible Kurumi felt about everything that happened and that Naoi had already let the matter rest.Just hope nothing happens, was already bad enough when all the happened back then
Me too omg 😭My reading comprehension might be dead because I thought she called the new baby Manaka. Nice kanji though (愛叶).
