I don’t care I still love it
And technically she said the manga ended when Tatsumi completely of free will had sex with morinaga. I forgot the chapter but it was where they fell on the floor together and tatsumi was upset cause Morinaga was “avoiding him”
Yes agree
no, it actually ended (the mangaka said it herself but i don't remember the exact words she used) around volume 8/9 and the newly resumed volume is kind of like a second season only due to high demand. if you feel that it's dragging when that the mangaka finally granted the wish of people to see the couple's aftermath, you are welcome to stop reading at the actual ending of the story. as for me, i will continue because it's very much rare for a mangaka to agree to continue letting us see the relationship going further than this.

Man this manga gets so repetitive. 10 volumes and the author still keeps repeating same scenarios over and over again. The author has been dragging the story out for years and only now we have Soushi realizing his feelings? Of course he will just deny them and then we have another slow progress dragging on for 5 volumes lmao.
