It takes 135 chapters, a couple of missed chances and his confession line was actually stolen but ...

they finally became a couple. How sweet when the initiation was coming from Natsu.

YES!!! It finally happened. Now all that's left is a kiss.

I'm so excited for this tournament. I'm sure Maruo will go far with and all the effort he's put will finally pay off.

It has arrived!

As expected of Natsu. Someone working on instincts would just go ahead and make things happen. Otherwise Ei-chan's reasoning would have kept us waiting for another dozen chapters at least.

I was just expecting a nice relationship building walk and instead we just got this couple together. A great chapter for sure. Feelings were expressed and I like how Natsu felt the attempt to confess before was enough since the feelings got across. She received his feelings so it was alright for her to return them.

Oh such a satisfying chapter. Now it's time for Maruo to kick some ass in the tournament!

What a great day.. So many Baby Steps chapters released in one day. My heart can't take it! Hnnnng

I love it that the author did this development you usually end up waiting till the end (while I'm waiting pulling my hair out at all the indecisiveness)

Loved her confession although I knew she liked him as there were a lot of signs.

Whoa, she actually confessed first directly. Well I do have to say that it was a bit cheesy and they don't seem all lovey dovey so far.

The romance in this manga is honestly blend but this sub plot sure took the next step.

This was soooooo sweet! I love natsu as a character. She is so earnest and straightforward, yet a bit mysterious at times too. It was clear that she liked him for almost as long as it has been clear that he likes her and I think that it is entirely fitting that the girl who plays by instinct took the initiative and got the break, so to speak. Such a happy chapter! (And the end of the volume extra was really cute too!)

Finally, and Na-chan did the talking so to say. Still, at least things happen in this relationship compared to other series (even romance ones).

Awesome :D Totally didn't expect it to be at this time and from Natsu :3

I love u Nacchan <3<3 Loved how she didn't care about the one to initiate it and the way she just suddenly went "Then go out with me" :O Loving her a lot ^^

U're a lucky guy, Eichiro but you both deserve each other ^^ I like both of these characters so much :3

yessssssss, they finally got together!!!!

And thank the nine realms it wasn't an empty and useless confession as Hinata did to Naruto.*shudders*
instead it was handled with class by the author, with the chemistry between Maruo and Natsu being great. :) can't wait for the next tender moment between these two, after all they're now a couple.

I liked the confession scene when I watched the anime. Got to see it in the manga now.
