I was feeling exactly the same! It's actually one of my favorite series because I'm obsessed with the characters but it's getting frustrating. I'm hoping that the author is just pushing it until they get better with communication so that when it reaches a climax it will make sense that they're able to work through it properly?
I still really enjoy the manga and hope for many more volumes, but it's somewhat odd. Plenty of potential plots get addressed, but never really happen.
The whole thing with Shizuma's boss has been there for ages (at least 3 volumes) but nothing happens. Status quo.
Minato still has a huge problem dealindg with his past with his mother, fearing becoming like her, but it also doesn't really get adressed. WE read his thoughts, but Shizuma only sees he's insecure, but can't grasp the severity of it, bc even in Vol.5 it's again not talked about.
He's amazing in reassuring Minato, but often doesn't really understand why esactly.
It's all rather frustrating.
Them house hunting was interesting, but I absolutely thought this will finally be THE volume, where we get the boss-plot. But nope. And i find myself rushing thru the chapter, bc I've been waiting for that for so long that I can't wait for the next chapter, expecting this'll be finally it.
Btw: The sneak peak of vol.6 makes me yet again think the potential boss-plot will get addressed... with how Minato is dressed xD pleeeease let it be it finally. Some proper plot.
