Is the black haired guy competing to take everything away from the blonde haired guy/putting up a fight? Not sure what’s happening, but from the looks of it, black haired guy is very skilled and did not seem to be a “nerd” in the past. He got average grades, had a lot of friends, and ended up being just like everyone else towards blonde haired guy. Was he putting on the “nerd” act to attract the MC? Idk why, it just feels too calculated, and I don’t like it. From skimming, I feel like the blonde haired guy is just trying to put on a “cool guy” mask to feel valid enough to stand next to/be with the MC? We see that since they were freshman, MC is highly sought after and there is a lot of hostility from upperclassmen towards blonde haired guy for getting closer to her. We also see that since he was younger, he’s had a hard time making friends. We can say that he’s spoiled and a snob for acting out/not wanting to be friends with people that “aren’t as smart as him,” but deep down, I feel like one of the downsides to being an introvert is that you push everyone away from you even though you want to be thought of/have friends of your own. That’s why, when black haired guy came to/transferred into the blonde haired guy’s school, blonde haired guy thought that he would finally have the chance to make a friend, but since he never built a relationship with anyone before, he reverted back to the same tactics that pushed everyone away to begin with again. I know he’s acting like a jerk sometimes around the MC, but idk, I kinda feel bad/sorry for him.
