I hope Iriya manages to keep his mouth shut and we don’t get too much drama around their relationship getting revealed some time in the future. Still, there’s only 12 chapters left so I guess this has to wrap up somehow. Hopefully the TL can keep up the pace for the remaining chapters and finish this series without going months between each chapter.

Narita drowning his sorrows with alcohol water. Glad to see his change as a character, really didn’t like him in the beginning.

I can see why the TLs said they weren’t a fan of this arc with the slightly forced double love rival thing going on. It’s a bit tedious when every chapter there’s seemingly progress, and then it ends on a “but what about the other girl/guy” vibe.

Pretty sure this statement breaks multiple laws of manga.

It’s a bit of a tough read in the beginning as Ichikawa is extremely edgy and chuuni. But, he mellows out pretty quickly and has great character growth through the series. I really recommend reading it if you’re into school romcoms, it’s pretty light on the drama. The chapters are short, but packed with a lot of easily overlooked small details.

Dang, did Akari manage to lift his self esteem regarding romance just enough for progress, or are we still stuck in the forever loop?
