We will shorten it.

So here, this story is about a MC that goes crazed with a tsundere girl about 2 years long then something happened that make MC become realist and try to stay away from Heroine because he was rejected many times or no so?. But because MC still loves her, he took a position where the girl is an idol and he is a fan of keeping an eye on her.

The heroine is annoying, cuz of a typical tsundere girl. But if you enjoy this type of girl, maybe you'll like it. A fast-paced, soft story without much conflict and so many girls ... introduced will sometimes confuse you. I recommend watching the anime adaption rather than just reading it. I'm sure you guys might like this kind of MC, but not the heroine.

This is my first Review, yadiyadayada, all of that stuff so don't expect too much.

The plot is simple, the MC has been chasing this girl (FMC) for 2 years and all of a sudden one day realizes he's an average Joe who has no chance with the girl he's chasing and becomes a realist. He then confesses to her one more time seriously and gets flat-out rejected, he accepts it, moves on, becomes cold, and distances himself from FMC. This in turn, makes FMC lonely(?), anxious, and, confused about her feelings because she's so used to him interacting with her all the time, giving her ... all of his affection which has become a precious part of her life. This makes for some good drama on how the both of them feel about each other.

Art: It's alright. It's what you would expect of a typical LN being adapted into a manga, nothing special about it.

Pacing: My main complaint about the overall story is how confusing it was and how many things were happening all at once. But I think the story being confusing is because it was mostly the translations and the way that the manga adapted things from the LN and its horrible pacing. From what I've read from the TL notes, the manga skips off some stuff off the LN. ( I tried my best on trying to understand the story, which was already hard to do because of the confusing translations (I had to switch between different TL groups that did these just to understand what was going on). I also checked some episodes of the anime (Though I didn't watch the whole anime completely) and compared them to the chapters of the manga, some of which were very different. Like the one where he visits FMC's home and meets her little sister - In the anime MC and Ashida visit FMC, while in the manga it's just the MC visiting her.

Characters: Now, the characters aren't overall that bad, they're alright but at the same time the Manga goes over them too fast and there are just too many characters being introduced at once it made me so confused I had to reread it multiple times just to remember who they were. But, enough of that, and let's focus on the FMC and the MC. First of all, the FMC - Natsukawa. Now I think what's the redeemable thing about her character is how she develops in the last chapter. She faces forward to properly realize her feelings which he has for the MC and doesn't run away from things, which she does mainly in the earlier chapters when she was trying to invite the MC to her house and all that stuff. Next, The MC - Sajou. I don't know what to say about him. It's mostly a feeling of hate and understanding which I can't explain in words, but he does have some moments in the story which I liked. The part where he explains to his sister that he's helping out with the cultural festival of his own accord made me like him, but then there's just a part of me that just makes me hate him partially because of how he views himself, but that's just my personal opinion.

Overall, it's enjoyable enough if you try to understand it and read some of the proper chapter translations of it, but it can be confusing if you don't. I would've loved to see more of the story and how the MC and the FMC resolve their complicated feelings for each other, in which I don't know if the LN has gone that far. It's a short adaptation but okay enough to probably hook some of the readers to hop over to the LN.

= Short review =

This is the premise where MC become realist and no longer playing around confessing with FMC, who is also Tsundere for whole 2 years.
After the rejection for the MC's Proposal, MC decided to move on and face a realistic truth of how shitty the life was after being clinging on FMC with constant rejection. Thus end up how MC becoming negative on his surroundings, nor even his friends, who also questions his sudden changes.

But here's what makes it worse, FMC didn't like it. And now she becoming more jealousy and wanted MC attention, after MC distancing her school life. Thus a story ... of Wataru Sajou and Aika Natsukawa who can't even get their own feelings straight.
Alongside the story, there's a lot of girls who also having Communication issues and troubles which MC "somehow" fixed their problem in just "a Chapter". Yes, this manga had Pacing issue, its way too fast. Killing off suspense and drama.

Art is kinda fine for a Shounen manga, at least its not tear your eyes off.
Translation as so far, its horrible. Possibly the manga dialog translations are the main issue or the story issue, I don't know.
So be warned.

Unfortunately I'm not recommend this to everyone, maybe Anime will save this writing mess (since i heard a lot of things changed), or go read LN.
