ngl taira is one of my favourite character arcs in coming of age manga. he starts out with r/niceguys incel vibes (thinking girls only want men for status) but quickly realizes that it's not necessarily the truth when he sees suzuki with tani, and also realizes fairly quickly that he's just projecting his own insecurities.
the progression of his self awareness and development is also really interesting because it's not as simple as just knowing it and then fixing it- almost like a meta-analysis of himself, he first understands that his insecurities are causing problems, but that only recognizing this isn't going to help. honestly i prefer this kind of character development way more than the whole bad boy turns nice suddenly schtick
Last panels were funny but honestly I'd dream to get nepo'd into a lab intern position. Coming from someone who has no hope for NSERC applications due to low gpa lol
