When I first started reading this manga two years ago, I dropped it on the 9th chapter ( I don't remember why tho) But I finally finished it now


FIRST THINGS FIRST
Let me talk about AKI. aki at first didn't really care about anything, as log as there's food, he's good to go. He was completely oblivious to the FL's feelings for him. To me, he is a really BORING character as the main lead, to the point where you'll really stop caring about him the more you read the story and it really sucks because he didn't really put a lot of effort in their ... love story with the female lead. He's kinda like Kuroko in Kuroko no Basuke... The author also gave him fewer scenes on the earlier chapters that's why there was no character development whatsoever from the 1-40th chapter. That's why,,, less scenes, no efforts whatsoever, jist keeping quiet to himself, I think that made me want to not make him the main lead because he's just like air.

ON THE OTHER HAND,
TOBA YUUMA kun/ the other guy that likes the girl,, he had more character development with the female lead, he also had more scenes with the female lead, at first he just wanted to support her from the sidelines when the girl had a huge crush on Aki, he gave her all sorts of advice but at the same time he was inlove with the girl, he comforted her everytime she was sad, he was always there for her, he has great observational skills and could easily tell what the girl was thinking. During the time when the Female MC was a mess, he finally started to move, he started to confess his feelings and stuff, he really wanted to support her and be with her. He even told her that she could use him as much as she wants because he is hers and stuff.. it made my heart goo doki doki THE AUTHOR MADE HIM THE PERFECT BOYFRIEND MATERIAL and he just loves the female MC soo much. It's a shame that the author just made him a supporting character.

The female MC, even if she spent a lot of time with Toba ( and also Aki was doing something else and didn't even show up a lot and made no progress) she still loved Aki a lot, she was straightforward in rejecting Toba tho, but it was really a shame since Toba was the perfect guy,

ANYWAY, the author made the supporting male character (Toba) soooo LOVABLE that you'll just think " Oh wait.... I don't think the male mc is worthy of female mc, Toba kun is better with her" and you'll get hurt because this manga wasn't made for them.

So I think what the author did to Toba was really unfair, he should've had a happy ending, but he was really sad in the end, Unrequited love hurts. But I think The Female mc didn't deserve Toba anyway since she couldn't even see that Toba was there for her everytime, she couldn't even see that there was always someone by her side whenever she was hurt by Aki or was feeling down. Toba deserved more than this and it really bummed me out that he was a Supporting character.

That's why I really think that it's the author's fault for making the Supporting male soo lovable that you'll end up rooting for him, and the main lead such a boring character . You'll definitely be heart broken for Toba kun in this manga .

Anyway, I've seen a lot of people drop this manga because the female character rejected Toba kun .

(Excuse my English) I really did enjoy this manga. At first I thought it was about a girl who builds a friendship with the whole basketball team but I then I figure out that's not the point of the story which I kinda wish it was but then I started reading more of it and I liked where the story was going. It's kinda what I expected but expect it includes romance which I also enjoy. I think in the middle of chapter three was when the story started getting interesting for me. I enjoy seeing Sonokawa relationship with Akkey how it will work out. ... The development is kinda slow but it's not to fast either. I hope it's getting somewhere soon before something or someone gets in the way.

I would have rated this series higher, but the male lead is frustrating. It is understandable that he is focus on basketball, but the female leads confuses to him and he does not give her an answer. It seems like he likes her, because he seems to be slightly jealous when another guy comes into the picture. It seems it will turn out into another "I like my toy, but do not play with it, until someone else starts playing with it," childish possession.

As for the female lead, she is great. She is usually positive, straightforward and does almost everything 100%. ... I see how she might come off as annoying and stalkerish, but she is willing to give the person she likes her all. The female lead deserves someone that will not lead her on, she deserves better than the male lead.

Note: I usually side with the male leads, which shows how frustrating I find the male lead.
