----------------------------------------
The whole thing gives me a headache when I think about it so much....

With the personalities of these two, I don't think it's easy to reconcile.
In fact I don't even think they can be friends again, but the reconciliation that Kaguya says for me, is that they don't leave the problem in an empty misunderstanding, but that they talk about it and at least clear everything out.

It's true that Miko makes very superficial decisions without even talking about it, but admitting it is the first step to change.
AAA, Damn, we'll have to see how Aka handles this xd

I really like how well Kaguya understands the situation. Shirogane now has a good understanding of the whole thing too, wonder what he's gonna do. Also I hope Iino can change and makes up with Osaragi too.

I MEAN it might be a bit childish but anyone would react like that to hearing their best friend saying that they arent even friends, the real childish one was Osaragi let's be honest.
If you have a problem with ur friend talk to them bout it.
Don't go to someome else and start talking bout everything bad bout them, that's shitty and toxic behavior, kaguya's advice felt just stupid, ofc Osaragi had her reasons to do what she did, but everyone thinks that everything they do is justified.
She should have just talked to Iino from the start.
I'd cut ties with someone who cant even tell me they have a problem with me to my face and goes telling my friends bout my mistakes in the past lmaoo

I think that the childish behavior can obviously be blamed on Osaragi and Iino. However, I really liked the discussion between Kaguya and Iino, I found it very interesting on a personal level but I like the way the author avoids to make too much misunderstandings (except for comical purposes and in a non repetitive way) or dramas because the characters don't express their real feelings. In Kaguya-sama, they try to go to the point and to be factual, something that makes me love this manga.

Really great chapter! I love those "It's not that simpleeee" panels of Kaguya lmao. Shirogane is truly a gigachad, relationships are a pain in the ass. We got Bakaguya and Iceguya in a single chapter, blessed.

I don't know why people are hating on Kaguya for being harsh on Iino. This is Kaguya we are talking about, whether it's Iino or Osaragi or someone else, she'll be painfully blunt with her opinions. She's not taking any sides, she didn't say anything about Iino forgiving Osaragi, she's just helping her grow and be the better person of the two. And if she wants to be the student council president, she needs to mature and grow as a person more. Break next week, but I really looking forward to the next chapter, maybe we'll see Shirogane talk with Osaragi.

I am in complete agreement with Shirogane, things were not complicated, they simply did it that way, for me Osaragi has nothing to reproach Miko for, she could help him and she did not. To say that she preferred friendship and to step back to help him is an excuse to hide her weakness and her fear that her fragile paper world would succumb to a gust of wind.

Kaguya makes my blood boil, if you try to mediate a conflict you must be neutral, why Miko has to put herself in Osaragi's place and not the other way around?, immaturity? Miko is undoubtedly immature but so is Osaragi and so are you (especially after going out with the president you threw a tantrum due to any conflict and insecurity of yours) so you do not have that authority to tell anyone what to do.

You offered to do her campaign in an act of selfishness and caprice so that your beloved president was elected again and, why is her sense of justice wrong or simple? what gives you the right or the power to decide what is the proper way to handle things? Who do you think you are?

"All your judgments are based on your point of view" being sincere if I criticize this point I will criticize the whole series, all the misunderstandings, all the drama and the situations that were caused bor y your judgments, or by Shirogane. In reality we all do it and we continue to do so that is why we have freedom of choice.

"You need proper language around who is around you "? You have not given Miko a chance to reply or her right to answer your accusations. At this point, I repeat to myself" All your judgments are based on your point of view "is basically what you are doing now. Miko is wrong because that's how you consider it.

Miko certainly should have supported Ishigami directly but it is not so easy to do. For example, as to tell a withdrawn and introverted person to go to a party and to talk to everyone, I don't know that person could go to in the first place, the lights, people, the noise It is not something that we can do so easy and as Shirogane says "Omi" did not love him so much if I did not help her then, she is in the same boat as Miko. She only projects the situation of her parents onto Ishigami and anyone she is romantically related to.

Kaguya, if someone you considered a friend talked you like that I wonder if you would act mature as you says is the right way to do things.
I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people will think. "Shit, is her again" or something.

People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English.

Kaguya's honest talk with Iino will hopefully kickstart the resolution to this fuss. Honestly this miniarc has been somewhat excruciating and by now I just hope Ishimiko becomes a thing so shippers can throw a party and we can go back to our regular comedic programming. I want to see Papagane doing another one of his streams or heck even Fujiwara going ramen hunting at this point

Friendships between girls are just a pain in general...

Well, that surely sums up the majority of this arc... If it were guys in the place of Iino and Osaragi, attracted to the same girl, one way or another, they will settle it in a rather timely fashion.

Kaguya's stoic critical analysis of Iino's immaturity and how it prevented her from becoming the President Iino tried to be is just what Iino needed to open her eyes up, but even the all-impudent, all-impulsive Iino realized that aspect of her own personality, one that severs the bond of friendship and separates her from those she loves and wanted to be loved back. The first step in dealing with all this shit is to swallow her pride, put her ego aside and reconcile with Osaragi. It's a move that is against Iino's own sense of judgement, but what is justice but a system of approval from one's own individual perspective?

Speaking of this soft-of-love-triangle...
Miyuki himself did point out a good deal of reason as to why Omi AKA Osaragi should not be in the picture at all, for all these years, she has never once approached Ishigami in a romantic light and chose to endlessly pursue and maintain her relationship between her and Iino. Sort of how Kaguya and Hayasaka maintained a friendly relationship based on their master-servant relationship and not as an actual friend of the friend relationship. however of course... [size]IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE!!![/size]

However you spin up this knot of uneasy feelings, Miyuki took on the most logical and most sensible reasons and laid it flat out on the table. Even if he were to consider Omi AKA Osaragi's action and the role she took in this love triangle. It does not mean that it's the best way to go about doing all this. What a pain...

Shuuchin better has a world-class psychiatrist on-site in the school's nurse office, these teenagers and the person who they chose to be with and/or to despise will ultimately influence the future state of the country's economic, political and social structure.

To be honest I'd rather see what Shirogane has to think about this whole situation. I don't think Kaguya is the best person to get advice from in the sense that she herself hasn't experienced a love triangle and she literally turns on Chika in like two seconds over nothing lol. We see Kaguya cold blooded opinion but put her in eithers shoes and her only goal would be to dominate. Perhaps its a do as I say not as I would do situation.

This manga is getting a lot more complicated than I thought I had to read the same pages atleast 2-3 times. Even though I watched over a dozen of romcom anime. But I think this arc will explain the meaning of "love" in deeper sense (Probably I'm wrong because its just an assumption of mine after reading the way Kaguya was reacting to Miyuki's simplified answer about the romantic story of Omi And Ako.

I hope it doesn't get too complicated for me atleast.

I think I'm still too inexperienced to read romcom manga. ಥ‿ಥ

Welp, that is how I truly feel. My ideology is that I feel as much as it is natural to expect something genuinely great from your favorite manga, it is equally as much important to be critical about stuff that you really don't like.

This is the reason why I quoted two persons in this forum who seemed to be struggling to criticize or to see their favorite manga being criticized. People really like putting their favorites on a pedestal and refusing to look at them without rose-tinted glasses. I simply can't stand it since they remind me of my pathetic past self.

Well, that is some random bullshit sophistry from me. Have a nice day.

It would be nice if this arc ended with Osaragi and Miko making up and becoming friends while also leaving Ishigami alone. I don't like the Miko/Ishigami pairing, so this arc had been a chore to get through. Some good moments but I really don't want them to be end game. I like them as characters, but not together.

The friendship between Miko and Osaragi isn’t going well right now and I can see Miko being immature to be very frankly honest I do agree with Kaguya that Miko is very immature as she always sees Ishigami or others from the way she interpreted on her own instead of looking what others would think about the situation and that’s what inaccurate in her verbally and sightingly plus she needs to practice being conscience by knowing when to approach a person who is having a difficult time and try to sympathize their feeling instead of leaving them stranded, it does take time for someone like Miko to do so it makes sense to why she didn’t approach him and that last speech Kaguya made was a perfect way to end the conversation when having troubles with your best friend.
