I feel sad this manga has such a low rating. Im not sure you realise that this is a good story of moving on. Azuma isnt plan B. In fact, Mahoro may have not been inlove with Ren. It was probably the fated pair instinct that kept him longing for Ren. He may have not realised it of course he was only focused on Ren. Azuma's presence gave him a different view, the first time he felt he needed to step forward for his life. He's becoming curious if Azuma has already moved on from her sis in law and started to become worried what will happen to them after he found Ren. Azuma has already occupied his heart without him knowing.

When Mahiro realised that fate doesnt equal to love when Azuma was gone. What's funny is it took Azuma just a few months to find Ren all because he wanted to give happiness to Mahoro, but Ren, despite being able (unlike Mahoro who is unlucky and financially incapable) did not even once searched for him.

You may say that Mahoro is lucky to have Azuma but Azuma is also lucky to have experienced a fated encounter with Mahoro who overcame the stigma of fated pair and chose to be with him.
