i think people just liked the "ending" because they're a tachibana x ono shipper which is kinda shallow. im surprised only a few ever touched on how it's very sad that chikage is still living on his shadows and is a replacement until the end. it never showed ono being willing to change those feelings for chikage himself but instead him just wanting to bury his feelings for tachibana so he's using chikage as a cover. there was effort, but it was for the wrong reason. it's sad tbh and if it goes on like this i just hope they'd just break it off and find others to love. i know the whole point of this is chikage is the one who tried to understand him the most right now but it's very toxic when ono himself just puts effort into burying the feelings and not loving chikage himself. idk if im making sense but basically i have an issue about ono's prime reason why he goes to chikage.
