That takaya guy is potentially a second ml, but guys it also show that yamada felt jealousy, although he's nonchalant about it. He literally said "im gonna marry your sister" to her little brother!!! And he literally said to takaya "back off, give up, akane's mine" IF THAT'S NOT JEALOUSY, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS. And they're in a healthy relationship, which i love! But i totally get you guys, thinking your bf having a phone call every night and it's a girl??? Totally get y'all considering that's what happened in akane's previous rs

Exactly, he's wondering why he's not talking to Akane as much because he's dense. He's not realizing that being on the phone with this old friend who is a girl is stopping his time with Akane. She needs to voice her opinions sooner rather than later, because she's just confusing our poor dense cinnamon roll who only wants to do right by her, and her alone.
I was not ready for that face card ash...
