Him: demand my time! Interrupt my schedule! Him one hour earlier: no I'd totally pick a do...

Thee way u say it makes him out to be a trash person
But he is a vet, a doctor and any doctor who chooses to attend to a his jealous boyfriend over a dying life should not be a doctor.
I know he bad for making Minato feel insecure but come onn, you all going too far with this shizuma hate project

i don't like his behaviour either but in this case you gotta see that he is a doctor and if one of his patients is literally dying he gotta rush there even if the patient is a dog he is still a soul that should be saved

I thought he was an intern? Shizuma def doesn’t deserve all the hate but let’s not lie that he’s not annoying sometimes with his dense brain.

If he had been doing emergency work instead of spending half the day eating sweets with his boss, sure I would’ve ignored it.

I think Minato would understand that, he’s self aware of his own childish behavior which is a good thing. He realizes he’s insecure because of his trauma and not exactly because of Shizuma.

You can't do especially with Japanese work ethic and work culture.

Not all Japanese workplaces are like this. Shizuma clearly has no problem standing up to the boss, we saw him call him out for insulting their relationship.

Yeah, some place are changing (slowly) but the roots of strict work ethic has long been embedded in the minds of many Japanese people. Also, when come to internship it's different there, I remember helping my friend

looks up internships there, she decided to go to Germany. Not that it was completely bad but she had more confidence with her German than Japanese. Anyway it's a commitment especially when you doing intership for things like a vet, doctor, vets, dental and stuff in the medical field. That's all I wanted to state. Anyway, I'm going to wait and see how Hinohara-sensei is going to execute her story, I'm rather interest in the future chapters since I stopped at chapter 21.

It’s more of the boss crossing boundaries (time wise). I’d understand if it was an emergency but they just sat there at a cafe. It’s more of Shizuma being a people pleaser and letting this get away.

That why I said I'm interested in how Hinohara-sensei well execute her story. I tend to like characters like this since it hard for me to say no, myself (working on but it's a progress) been like since a child. In my case it has a lot to do with being the oldest (single parent) cause my younger siblings are the excalty opposite. Also, like the varies of different characters and their layers gives me inspiration.

I’ve seen the raws and to answer your question, they seem to be progressing well so far. And same with me, I have a hard time saying no but if I am in a relationship, I’ll try to say no if it interferes with my relationship especially in a situation where the boss is doing non-work related stuff and dragging me with them.

I’m the oldest son but my oldest sister gets more of the traditional responsibilities. I get it more easier. Although this will differ, this is the situation for me.
