Confused

spoiler alert for anyone starting this manga!


for me it felt like he was already attracted to honjou-san from the beginning (e.g. the contrast between his first impression reaction toward honjou vs honjou's senpai) and when honjou said that he swings both ways that further intensified his attraction(?) since he actually has a shot at dating honjou-san

also he saw how capable honjou-san is and admired him in ch.2 before getting kinda jealous of honjou's senpai friend since he saw how honjou looked at his friend, then honjou's care for him probably made him realize on the spot (and to me it seems like once he knows what he's feeling, he'll get it across to the other person, quoting kippei from Ch.5 how would the other person know if he didn't say it?) so imo the confession made sense to me!

(ok it's almost 6 am so that may also have to do with it sorry for the long reply ahah)

I also think kippei is very observant so a lot of things are seen with just the eyes so maybe not said out loud very explicitly but the fact that he notices and lingers on shows he's interested and wants to know more about honjou like honjous friend/senpai

agree! you can tell he pays close attention to honjou

When i wrote that, i meant a few things that made it feel like it was rushed for me.

First kippei was in the relationship at the start, there was no indication he was unhappy in it, so if he felt more then being thankfull to honjou then it only shows he also can easily fall for some else in he's current relationship.

Second the whole cheating part, he caught his (ex) boyfriend cheating who he seemed to actually love, and he moved on instantly, hello?? Outside of few tears the whole thing was forget.

Third the confection, he was working there for a week, then he was cheated on and few days later he confesses (to me it's screams raplacment).

And after that they had separated for few months with no contact because for some reason non of them thought about exchanging numbers. So for those few months the only thing they had to rely on to love each other more was limited informations they provided throughout few days(not even whole month because they didn't talk every day) of knowing each other or imagination.... They could have spend those months talking, learning more about each other, falling more in love and then after some time reunite face to face, but nooo because not talking (when nothing stops you) is more romantic (¬_¬)
