nutty nutz's manga / #school life(25)

LR: ch.4 I got my wish with Misaki ending up together with Nozomu-senpai. But the events feel too abrupt. Like how Misaki didn’t waver much because of Yuda’s confession, or how Nozomu-senpai got over his first love just like that, etc., etc. Anyhow, it was a nice read, but I wouldn’t mind having more.

LR:34 --- LR: ch.12 The preps for cultural festival make Uka more acquainted with her classmates. She's also becoming a lot more independent and confident. Then there's Kai who seems to always be together with Serina these days. No wonder rumours about them dating again crop up. But I doubt those are true, unless he's being a jerk, because he looks quite possessive of Uka--and he makes sure other people know it, though not to Uka. It has happened twice now: once when Midori-sensei was passing by and Kai leaned on Uka's shoulder, and now he claims to be in charge of her. Sometimes, I can't stop laughing out loud at Kai's sudden outbursts. I really hope the two of them can talk during the cultural fest. I'm rooting for romantic developments, of course, but I don't mind if they can just be proper friends for now. If Uka needs more time to grow, I'll wait for her patiently. -- LR: ch.10 Uka draws the attention of suspicious-looking new teacher Midori-sensei, who seems to be surrounded with bad rumours?! He even puts Uka down (saying she doesn't fit in), maybe in hopes that she would come to rely and trust only in him. Too bad for him, Uka stands up for herself. Kai, too, declares that Uka came to their school for him. (LOL much?) Then the preparations for the cultural festival starts, and Uka volunteers to be a committee member. I really love Uka here. To be frank, I was expecting for her to crawl back into her cave, especially after the Midori-sensei episode. But she didn't, and she didn't have to be mean or rude about it. Now, she's even stepping out of her comfort zone. I love how, although she does have these negative thoughts, she also puts up a fight--mentally and in action. So I'm really loving Uka so far. Honestly, Kai's been playing on both my good and bad side. I do agree with the other comments about him probably not wanting Uka to see him in this idolized light (thus the reason for his cold attitude). But, dude, you gotta know your words really hurt sometimes, OK? And I do wish we can see even just a tiny peek into his thoughts, since I'm sure there's more to him than just a fickle-minded high schooler. But in any case, I'm still rooting for Kai x Uka, but not that I would mind some Boy x Uka action (I do hope so, since she's adorable). -- Ch.8 Got a glimpse of Serina’s personality, which, in my personal opinion, doesn’t seem fake. Which in turn makes me curious as to why she and Kai broke up. It doesn’t seem like Kai feels awkward around her either. Another thing I’m surprised about is him suddenly ignoring Uka. I mean, yes, getting drenched in water is probably worse than getting slapped. But not even a single “You OK?” or a “Go to the infirmary” kinda thing? I honestly don’t get Kai’s thinking even from the past few chapters—he reaches out then pulls back. I’m not judging him yet, but I am confused about his actions.

Somehow, the MC guy's feelings felt rushed. It makes me wanna say, I don't buy it. But well, it's not that bad I guess?
