HONESTLY!!!! Naho(MC) is such a real character that you’re able to understand his thoughts and feelings even when he’s thoughts begin to jumble up. I cried so much for him because his perspective of himself was shattered, it’s one thing to become self aware about not being objectively cute and another thing to realize that someone precious to you has been lying to your face about being cute and at the same time hear a bunch of insults from their friends about how you look and act.
LITERALLY BRO, I SWEAR IT FELT LIKE BOTH CHARACTERS WERE WRITTEN BY DIFFERENT PEOPLE?! Σ(っ °Д °;)っ
YES and then suddenly questioning if you're always being annoying or too much and if everything you say or do is wrong because how could you trust yourself or anyone else anymore after that :((
I don't get how Mc is written so well and ml is not and their romance never really...happens?? Idunno how to explain it but it hurt my heart when mc's self-perception started to wilt and with every realization and insecurity I felt my heart get heavier bc it was written so well, but we never get ml's perspective or a real explanation/apology for all of the weird behavior in the beginning and then they're just kind of suddenly in love?? What??
