Idk I said it before, but I read a lot of trash, but stuff where you know it had potential or where you really enjoyed the characters and plot... Just for it to be ruined like this kinda fills you with disappointment. I guess nowadays I'm just getting more picky. The addition of that character wasn't really needed or at least wasn't carried out the way it was intended. There is no way Chihiro's insecurities got resolved, but instead worsened. Plus, why a pedo?
Why is he still a kid ?! I remember someone saying they planned to age him up but WHENNNNNN?! no judgement tho just I let it sit for a few years, and it's still the same.
I can't remember fully of anything, since it was back in 2020, but it was kinda like a thing on the author's Twitter where the idea came from. No knowing if it was someone else or the author who was hinting at the age-up back then, but I definitely know that's where the idea came from. No hate if it doesn't happen, but it was just kinda the assumption a lot of older readers had, especially since we were blessed with art and short stories of older Tsubaki (っ.❛ ᴗ ❛.)っ I commented just cause it's been so long, so I do understand the title, but some time in the past the idea was put into my head, I guess(?) not sure how to explain lol. Sorry for the word wall.
Thanks to everyone who responded thooo! It's good to know now instead of waiting for it never to happen!
It's cool if it's not revealed yet, but wanted to check before I read it.
