It's more like the mood change 180 from Chiaki to Riku, right?
Yeah, it’s almost like the author changed favorites while writing the story
I mean I don’t really see the problem with that I guess. It is her production and the author can do anything they want, but yeah most authors try to appeal to the audience more, but I don’t mind.
Sure, but just ends up making the author look like an indecisive writer who just can't settle on one character and end up constantly switching over the two leads. It becomes hella frustrating to read at one point.
The author is really pushing riku over Chiaki, you can really tell which one the author likes more
