----------------------------------------
That was one helluva twist in the story! Who knew that the poker-faced Inui actually saw Rio kissing Akari. I really didn't see it coming. And now that Akari has mustered the courage and ask him out, he rejects her! I really cannot blame Inui for this. I always though he probably liked Akari but he isn't really sure how to reciprocate her feelings for him when he is left pondering on Rio and her situation. πŸ’”

Somehow it hurt me more for Inui than for Akari because she is the more aggressive type so she could probably deal with it faster.

Meanwhile, Yuna surely is in love with Rio more than ever before. She is so cute and is it just me or she looks more and more beautiful by each passing chapter! They do say girls become prettier when they fall in love! That bye-bye came like I an arrow and went right through my heart! πŸ’˜

I was so surprised to know that Inui saw Rio and Akari kissing. And now he even thinks that Rio still likes her.. OMG IUDGBRIBOG
And why is Rio being so dumb, just tell Yuna whatever you're feeling!! I hope Agatsuma gives up on trying to get together with Yuna ...

Went back to read chapter 13 where Rio kissed Akari, and the cat was there! So it was interesting to see that this chapter Io sensei showed us Inui's perpective.... He's really a good guy by respecting Rio, but it's so frustrating because now he's starting to have feelings towards Yuna!!! what a mess x.x
Still, congrats for Akari "having balls" to confessing to him! :D

But don't you find it strange (and quite offensive at it) the way she confessed? Instead of "I like you. Please go out with me" she says "Wanna try going out? You like me, right?"

I know, but I feel like it's a safer way to confess and less direct. And she said in the negative, like "if you don't like me" wich doesn't make her sound so cocky. I mean, if it goes wrong (wich did) Akari could say it was a joke or something, she could "dodge" the embarrassment a little bit. but well, in this case she just came with an excuse and ran away.
Sorry I don't know if I could make you get my point, but I agree with you, I wouldn't like someone confess to me the way she did.

Well, its very obvious who ends up with whom. I just want to have a twist, having Yuna-chan and Kuzu end up together in the end after falling in love for the first time and realizes their feelings with one another. After all, I support childhood friends falling in love with one another. (I just want Akari to suffer with her unrequited love towards Kuzu bec she always played around at relationship,jk)

Does anyone think it'll end with Yuna x Kazu as a couple? :)

I was riiight, Inui did see Rio kiss Akari, which explains his awkwardness around Akari for the last however many chapters D: I mean I understand him thinking that he doesn't want to hurt his friend by liking the same the person, but in turn, he's also hurting the person he likes. Either way someone will get hurt, and I feel like he should just be honest and talk to Rio about it. I mean that way, Rio could also tell Inui that he's given up. But of course, Inui's the type of really considerate person, which I I do like. It's just that it's going to cause a lot more problems in this situation.

I love the way Sakisaka Io uses body language btw:


Inui trying hard to stop his hand from touching his chin when telling Akari that he doesn't especially like her or anything ;_;

I agree though that Akari was a bit too straightforward? I'm not a guy so idk lol, but I could see her coming off too strongly when she asked Inui out. At the same time though, I think there are people who like girls with strong personality, and I admire Akari for that. She's also really amazing for being able to laugh it off and saying that she was embarrassed. The panel right after Inui rejecting her, she was really about to cry, yet she was able to put on a brave face. My heart really hurt for both of them in this chapter...now how will they interact with each other? Inui's not the type to be able to act normally.

As for Yuna, she hopes that she and Rio have gotten closer after the festival, buuuut Rio is quite troubled. It'll all be good though if Agatsuma doesn't start liking Yuna, so how this will go really depends on him imo. Or I guess if Rio finally realizes that he does genuinely like Yuna maybe he'll make a move. Whatever happens, this will be a long journey, lol.

I really love Sakisaka Io's sense of expressing her characters:

Seriously, her characters are so dynamic they feel alive and not just drawings on a paper. That black hair friend moved around in that chair so much during their convo in Rio's room XD

I'm a bit surprised that quite a few people didn't seem to see Kazu witnessing the kiss coming. I thought it was a fairly obvious twist and a pretty cliche one at that as far as twists go anyway.

I get that some people might not like how Akari confessed but she did it in the heat of the moment, she probably thought that was her best chance since Kazu was acting concerned for her after being fairly standoffish recently. I don't think it was wrong or offensive, I don't think she'd ever confessed before so it's understandable that her nerves got the best of her and ended up doing it in a way that she could brush it off if he rejected her. I really hope this misunderstanding doesn't get dragged out for too long though since it can be solved so easily.

Still not really liking Rio and Yuna together. I can't really get on board with how he's suddenly all over her now when he was so into Akari just a few chapters ago. Feels really forced and rushed to me. I still don't get how either of them fell for each other, I mean I know Yuna did at first because Rio was handsome but what else is there?

I think considering Akari's personality, this type of confession is the only way she knows how to do it. She's a character that doesn't make a big of a deal when facing a break up, or simply doesn't take relationships in general THAT seriously. She's all so nervous around Kazu because it seems like something new to her, and the "you like me, so maybe we should see how it goes" logic suits what she has been experiencing so far in her love life. I don't think it was offensive as well, but a sum of nervosism, heat of the moment and her personality, plain and simple. And I, too, hope this misunderstanding can be solved soon, or the story will suffer. -_-

I can't feel Rio and Yuna either. I can see how he's now attracted to her, it seems like a natural thing to happen after the dream he had, but that cannot be anything near as love, and that by itself cannot build a convincing chemistry. Their chemistry doesn't seem right to me, unlike Akari and Kazu. And I'll be pissed if we have a Kazu x Yuna route at some point. We don't need that many cliches.

I think KazuxYuna will be together in the end because most of shoujo mangas where same hair colors can't be together


I was waiting for some chapters to pile up before reading this but like... kazu x akari and yuna x rio doesn't make me feel anything... idk it's perhaps i was expecting chemistry and depth like in ao haru ride.... so personally i would love to see some twist in the manga such as yuna x kazu, though i doubt it'll happen

that's exactly how i feel, rio was totally in love with akari and suddenly he had a dream about yuna and now he doesn't care about akari. there's no chemistry or depth in their relationship. yuna started liking him because he was very prince-like and then she got rejected, she was a shoulder he could cry on and now he likes her romantically.. i dunno

I really commend Akari for being a strong girl and baring through that awkward confession. Hopefully, this issue gets resolved soon.

The character designs get confusing, Rio's two friends look just like Rio and Inui. Apart from that, not that I dislike it or anything but this is turning out into a real mess. Yuna has really grown the most so far, I really like her now.

Akari and Inui going along with the communication is very sweet but I knew that Inui saw between Akari and Rio kissing during the rain and Akari did the smartest way to avoid rejection which is to run away I guess and not even think about it anymore and I have a sense that Rio is jealous of Yuna because he's not meaningful to Yuna, well that's what you get for rejecting her and he deserves it to say the least.
