Very certain this was not the plan and the author even tried to wave a ploe at us with the fatherhood squeal and him literally acting like a parent afterwards. XD

Again the mc wasn’t grooming the ml. The mom took it upon himself to become the mc ideal type. So the ml is the one that decided to do whatever the mc said he liked or how he talked about someone else getting into a good university. The mc didn’t tell him to

I meant *mc

That’s even weirder to me to put a “parenthood” sticker on a story where the outcome is obviously they’re gonna end up laying in the bed together

I’m going to be honest I didn’t understand a word you just typed and I’m also not going to entertain the story to figure out what you’re saying either.

It wasn't a 'parenthood sticker', it was an indicator for the intention and mood for the specific moment.
It's nonsensical to brand the entire comic as weird only because you cannot differentiate moments from overall story. The characters are not sexually or romantically interested in one another at the time this had happened. And what happens later, when they are both adults, is unrelated to that moment entirely as the feelings develope, they are NOT immediately there simply because you as the viewer knows this will be a romance later on.

Again, cues for the moment and momentary mood/intentions are nothing to judge the overall story by. And this specific situation is not the only one. Take the classic trope of enemies to lovers for example. You wouldn't brand the entire relationship worthless and toxic just because that is how they started out. Same vice versa, for lovers turned enemies (both emotional and them actually wanting each other harmed).
