The first part of this chapter is a pain to read. The second part is good (well relatively), at least they reconcile, and Souma finally fucks off (YES!!!). The plot can pick up once again and hopefully we won't be stuck in college forever, I want more plot progression.

It's great they finally got that issue resolved. In the end they both figured out their feelings more and less and were able to advance a bit further in their relationship! Souma is finally starting to realize and understand their relationship more and how fragile it is and pretty much gets the gist of it since they BOTH go to him for advice. Although it does appear that he's still having growing feelings for Kujou as he sees her and Yanagi together at the end it seems the scene is making him depressed.

I just hope now that he understands their relationship he won't be such a hindrance and suppress those rising feelings he starting to have for Kujou. Although I don't think that will be the case.

I thought this was a pretty great chapter, all in all. The parts with Yanagi and Kujou together, especially the cute moments they had near the end of the chapter, were easily the best parts. Thankfully, they are not distant from each other anymore, and I don't have to read another chapter like the 13th one, where they had absolutely no interactions.

Souma was, once again, pretty useless. I don't care that he feels hurt at the end of the chapter, as he got what was coming to him. He should have never meddled in Yanagi and Kujou's relationship, especially in such a deceitful way. I'm hoping that now that he obviously sees that his evil plans aren't working, he'll actually appear less in the subsequent chapters, and it can focus solely on Yanagi and Kujou for a bit.

I'm also hoping that your last paragraph is true and that he suppresses his feelings, but how often does that happen in a Shoujo. It should, now that he can see that he will never measure up to Yanagi in Kujou's eyes, but I agree with you in that I don't think that will be the case either.

So glad the tension between them is finally gone. Souma was starting to piss me off the way he kept misleading Kujou about her feelings.

This was a pretty satisfying chapter; much better than the last. The first half was occasionally uninteresting, but the terrific second half more than made up for it. Hopefully the fantastic end of the chapter indicates lasting progress.

Fortunately, the focus on Kujou and Yanagi’s compelling relationship was considerably heightened throughout this chapter, particularly in comparison to the last. They continue to be great characters, and their interactions, as usual, are thoroughly fantastic. I really enjoy the slow development of their relationship, as, so far, it’s not filled with the typically insufferable contrivances, save for a slight tendency to unnecessarily filter in a “triangle” aspect in recent chapters, which, in itself, hasn’t been pushed too heavily.

Souma’s still a completely worthless and unlikable character, so, thankfully, his prevalence in this chapter was far more diminished than I was expecting, which is certainly for the best, since I really don’t care about the eventual realization of his feelings. The continued insight into his conflicted mind was the most pointless part of this chapter, and the last few, for that matter. The last page was terrific though, since, due to his continued arrogance and attempts to cruelly and selfishly interfere, it was quite satisfying to see his hurt reaction to Yanagi and Kujou’s mutual happiness and romantic interactions.

I’m hoping Fujimoto returns to having a greater role in the story, since, unfortunately, she‘s been practically non-existent following chapter 10. This would greatly benefit the narrative since, aside from being a very enjoyable character, her inclusion could, at the very least, distract from what has increasingly felt like the tedious framing of a triangle. Rather than Souma, she should be the one Kujou goes to for advice.

It was great to see all of those misunderstandings cleared up.

Love how cute Kujou's expressions were in this chapter.

Yeah, let's hope, I mean the whole "I didn't realize I was in love" is nice and all ... for like a chapter or two, but the theory is pretty flawed, humans usually know that, and it's not like you can go through your entire life never reading about love, I mean she is top tier student, surely some classical Japanese literature contained some type of love.

Yes some good progress :) I'm so happy for them :)
What is the most cowardly and shameful thing in human conduct? It's when people with power and people who flatter them hide in safe places and extol war, force patriotism and self-sacrifice on others, then send them to the battlefield to die. For the sake of peace in the universe, before we continue this fruitless war with the Empire, mustn't we first start by exterminating such evil parasites? - Yang Wenli

Finally that awkwardness is out of the way.

Mikoto's face was so cute

And Yanagi's feelings are totally understandable here OTP <3
