Scattered. That's the only way to describe this. A boy finds a girl that's about to kill herself, then they just move in together. Instead of exploring the girl and her path to recovery, or even their relationship, the story mostly consists of MC saying "I wish you'd/she'd do this", her saying "O-... ok. I'll try", and then succeeding in the very same page after literally one or two tiny hiccups. A baseball coach shows up who suddenly insists on recruiting MC because of his talent or whatever, and wouldn't you know it, he's the girl's dad (Because why else would we focus so
...
much time on some rando if not for this contrivance). Turns out the guy's abusive, and the girl's too scared to say anything (she doesn't really share much in general). But worry not, MC punches him a couple of times, then dad gets arrested for unrelated reasons. Then MC gets a shit ton bunch of money from dad (Who was supposedly struggling financially), and... that's it. The girl moves in next to him instead of just living together still, and their arc is over. That's the first volume of the WN.
After that, we completely forget about them and move on to other people. This isn't just a quirk of the manga adaptation, it happens in the WN too: We literally just ignore the main couple after the drama gets some contrived resolution until the fourth volume, where MC's mom meets the girl. The next arc in the Manga, covering Volume 3 of the WN is about MC's friend, whose feelings had been hinted at already. That's where the release ends for now, so I don't know what comes next. And frankly, I'm not nearly motivated enough to find out.
