What I dont understand is why he is still opposed to the idea of marriage despite literally wanting to spend the rest of hisblife with the MC?? Like maybe if he's the type that dpesmt feel like dealing with a potential shitty relationship that comes post-marriage in many cases because people have an exvuse to not try anymore after being bound illegally, but such a matter in itself should be totally up for discussion too?? Like agree on not letting the paperwork.intervene with what you've got period?? If anything the legal papers serve for benefits like what if someone ends up in the hospital etc. I really dont understand why he's THAT opposed to it if he literally is interested in spending the rest of his life with the MC. Like make it make sense
I get it but he has missed the point for Shishikura. The start of the next chapter should be him telling him straight that he doesn't want a fancy party. He wants what it represents. If they can compromise with a relationship without that paperwork, then that will save this awkward plot.
And if Kotani feels like that about marriage, they need to talk about kids yesterday. We can't tell with the lightsabers but they've gone without protection at least once. We know Shishikura wants them and has thought about it.
Exactly, trauma is the most likely reason. But instead of straight up being forward eith his feelings he's trying to come up with a compromise without actually discussing what they want out of a hypothetical future together. He could straight up explain himself which Ig we'll see if that'll happen in the next 2 chapters
As someone who has no plan of ever getting married, I understand Kotani. But, like... it is something you have to mention early on in your relationship (also IRL). I do that because I know what I'm looking for and I don't want people who are interested in me to waste their time.
Then again... I can see Kotani really loves him, enough to compromise.
