This!!
And also didn‘t the friend (who planed the mixer) say that Shida broke up with his gf? Then was Shida in a relationship while being fuck buddies with Igarashi? Because the were fwb for a pretty long time, were they not? They met after 8 years and in the End Shida said he waited 15 years…
Correct me if I‘m wrong but that would make Shida an even shittier person…
SPOILERS -----------------------------------
No, that was before Shida reconnected with the Igarashi. After they graduated, 8 years passed without them ever seeing or speaking to each other. Shida kept trying to reconnect but he never could. Shida dated ppl that looked like the Igarashi in those 8 years. After attending the mixer, he finally heard some news about Igarashi and thanks to that, they finally reunited. From there they remained F buddies for 4-ish years until MC couldn't take it and tried to block Shida from his life again.
So did the seme know that the uke liked him? Why does he say he knew the uke liked him then 5 bubbles later he says ‘if only I knew, it wouldn’t have gotten this complicated’. Like what? At first I thought it was cute but the miscommunication was ridiculous in my opinion.
