TBH I want him to love her but I don't want her to love him.
So he could have his heart broken and she could crush his fucking pride because seriously I hate the guy.
//SPOILER MAYBE JUST ASSOMPTION//
//SPOILY SPOIL //
And I strongly feel like he is gonna die at the end.
+ Otherwise i completly agree with u
Oh wow, that’s a well thought out perspective!
yea I get that feeling too. I just hope at least she doesn't end up with him... Yoshino deservesss wayyyy better (▰˘◡˘▰)
I enjoyed reading this
@kai this most well thought comment i ever read and i totally agree with you. wish i could give more then just 1 like. my biggest fear she will end up liking him.
Bruh, Yoshino is strong af. Like way ahead of Kirishima.
Honestly, mood. But tbh I know this author’s other works and I know he has a thing for fucked up, loveless relationships. In his last manga, he had this guy and girl couple. Guy only liked the girl because she looked like her dead sister/crush. They ended up together. Girl is kinda lukewarm towards him going like “I guess I like you.” And guy still can’t tell the difference in his emotions between her and the sister.
Don’t quote me on this tho. My memory of the manga is hazy at best. But the point is: this is shounen and not many shounen mangas properly “respect” the female character.
Wow, I’m amazed that so many people liked my diet analysis. I did a review of this manga a long time ago, when it first came out, on my review blog. Said the same there there, more or less. People told me that I was wrong and cynical about the manga.
A year later, seems like I was on the right track lol
Okay okay... I see the comments about Kirishima cheating and the snobbish comments going “*push glasses* technically he’s not cheating.” Let’s put the facts and opinions on the table here.
Yes, in the technical sense, Kirishima is not cheating on Yoshino. They aren’t dating and Yoshino plainly said that she doesn’t like Kirishima. (Thank god she has eyes).
But in an ethical and interpersonal stand point, Kirishima is an absolute scumbag in every manner of the word. It doesn’t look great to anyone + it’s a bad sign when the person who claims to “like” you and wants to win you over is going out to fuck women and doesn’t even attempt to show loyalty. It doesn’t matter even if tells her up front that he’s going around to fuck women, it’s still scuffed up. It’s like going on a first date and all your partner does is talk about their ex’s and their sex conquests. And don’t think I’m saying that he should keep his fucking on the downlow... it’s still isn’t great!
Kirishima has no right to ‘hang on’ to Yoshino based on his actions and it’s clear that he doesn’t really ‘like-like’ her (I don’t even want to say “love). He’s like a child who wants to a new toy that just out of reach but at the same time wants to play with his other toys. He likes her... but likes her as a passing interest. We can tell based on the first chapter, he would chew her up and spit her out if Yoshino slips up just once and relaxes her “bad bitch” persona... she would lose his attention if she turns out to be “basic”. To him, Yoshino is just fulfilling his fetish. Hell I don’t even know he would like her anymore if she decides to like him back.
And before anyone sputters out anything about polygamy, open relationships, or being “woke” that’s cool! But we’re looking at Yoshino as reference here because she’s the MC. And Yoshino is more or less the traditional type of gal... as in she cares about monogamy. As such, the least Kirishima could do is appeal to that side of her to show how serious he is about her. But he isn’t. And about her being fine with him doing all this crap... yeah... because she doesn’t like him. Like... she hates him. Why would she care about the actions of someone she really doesn’t like? But him doing all that fucking around won’t improve her impression of him. Tbh, this reminds me of this date I had irl. Dude tells me all about his ex’s and sex adventures then asked me if I cared about him having sex friends. He was so shocked when I told him I literally didn’t care cause I don’t even like him.
Anyways, we have to remember that Yoshino is sticking around to break Kirishima’s heart and also to help her family. She could leave whenever she wants... and seeing how Yoshino hasn’t broken Kirishima’s heart yet, I think we can all tell that he doesn’t really “love” her yet for her to enact her plan. And if anything, they might end up in a loveless marriage tbh. (Well, I hope. I pray Yoshino continues to have good eyesight).
Also, if anyone is wondering why I haven’t dropped this crap, I’m still waiting for Kirishima to be a “yandere”.... since everyone swears from heaven and hell it will happen. Still don’t see it btw based on his actions and that nothing is telling me that he actually “loves” her. And if we’re talking about his earlier “jealousy” scenes, I associate it with his misogynistic view on women tbh.
