I purchase it myself i can also confirmed that Toono and Kashima won the character popularity poll! Yes!!!!!!!!! The 6 page is so cute

I've seen some people saying Kashima is a boring person compared to Yaguchi. Sure, Yaguchi might be more "interesting" to some given his two-faced and complex personality, while some viewers see Kashima as "boring" because he's presented as the nice, cheerful, and stable character in a sea of chaotic, dysfunctional, and dramatic personalities. But he is far from boring. While other characters are defined by their warped viewpoints or intense trauma, Kashima brings a sense of normality, kindness, and stability.

His relationship with Toono is one of the most developed and healthy relationships in the
series. Unlike the dramatic, jealousy-fueled relationships surrounding them, Kashima genuinely cares for Toono, even revealing his feelings directly rather than playing games. Some viewers find the chaotic, toxic behavior of other characters entertaining, leading them to dismiss a "normal" character as boring. However, Kashima serves as a crucial
emotional anchor. Without his grounded personality, the manga's intense and often dark
parody elements could become overwhelming. Kashima's "niceness" hides a complex, often insecure boy who's trying to hold onto a relationship despite not knowing if his love is
truly reciprocated, often having to compete with Yaguchi. This vulnerability, hidden beneath a smile, gives him emotional depth that goes beyond the one-note tropes of other characters. Kashima's character is misunderstood by some or called "boring" or "underrated" because his personality isn't as explosive as other characters, but his role as the sincere, proactive, and loving heart of the story makes him a vital and interesting character. In short, Kashima is NOT boring. He's a stable, genuinely affectionate, and relatively healthy character in a story designed around unhealthy dynamics.

On the author pixivfanbox she finally reveal Yuri’s face in color which was nice. She also spoke about Chapter 32 on something has beginning to sprout which is probably about Toono. I also noticed when both Kashima and Toono are looking at one another (Kashima was looking at Toono far away in chapter 6 and now Toono looking at Kashima in chapter 34) Yacchan happens to be there when he takes notice. I don’t know if that is simple, coincidence or not but I figured I should point this out. I also noticed that During the camping trip and Yacchan trying to take Toono away from Kashima that it was actually Tamara who starts breaking the cracks on Yacchan false persona. Not Toono.

What I see in chapter 34 that makes me sad, is why hasn’t Toono gone and confront Kashima and ask him what is wrong? I mean, Toono is the only one that’s noticing this and it clear that nobody has noticed (not even Yacchan who grew up with him) and at this stage will Kashima even show up at the club at this point and if he doesn’t then you know that something is indeed wrong. (Yes, I’m aware that Toono is dealing with his own feelings right now but still and ask him what is wrong without telling him his feelings) Kashima supported him throughout the series, especially in chapter 19 and now 32 with his parents. In chapter 17 which kashima was feeling like this (not showing his face on the cover or in that chapter) with Yacchan and now with Toono. In that chapter Yacchan was pushed by Toono to make up with his cousin so are we going to see it here too with Toono? Toono hasn’t done that yet with Kashima so this here is probably the moment. Will Toono confront Kashima when he finally accepts this unknown feelings for him? I’m calling it that this issue probably won’t last long given how the author gets these things resolved in a few chapters but I can’t help but wonder.

I went on sensei Twitter and noticed a tweet of Kashima saying “My boyfriend is eating bread right now.” And that was in 2017 where she drew Kashima and Toono together at lot at the time. So it seems to be on Toono’s pov. So…if the ending won’t be change (according to the author herself) and everything from vol 1 (besides jimmy who appeared in vol 2) was basically foreshadowing from the beginning then…..and.. with her talking on pixifanbox about things been planned 14 years ago and how things are progressing now in the new chapters….I think we know who endgame is….. (and no…I don’t think it will be poly folks.)

Well, people need to keep in mind is that Toono never even knew Yacchan liked him in the first place. His relationship with him has been mostly friendship related until Yacchan fell in love with him in chapter 20. (And even then, Toono didn’t know) His feelings for him is always “cute” and nothing more. He cares for Yacchan that’s is true but not in the sense of love. (At least not yet or if it ever going to change) There was no way that Sensei was going to leave Yacchan hanging without a fight so he had to confess especially since this story is about a love triangle about first years. What makes it sad however is that if feels kind of rushed as if you read chapter 31, Toono is the one that asked Yacchan about the kiss, making it seem like Yacchan forgotten or his kiss didn’t matter much to him after chapter 28. When he confesses to Toono it seem like he only did it, because he noticed something had happen between him and Kashima and needed to make his move now. (Not seeming to care for his cousin who was acting strange in that chapter) If you read closely, in chapter 33 and 34 Toono is still thinking of Kashima throughout the whole chapter even bringing him up during Yacchan confession. (In fact, he was thinking about Kashima in chapter 28 when he didnt understand why yacchan kissed him) when it comes to Toono feelings for Kashima, it’s always unknown and something he doesn’t understand. He doesn’t even understand that he is falling in love with Kashima. While with Yacchan, he only kissed him in chapter 31 was because Yacchan asked him to. (And even then. He wanted to kiss him only on the cheek) With Kashima it was different in chapter 32 and still is even now in chapter 34. People keep seeming to want Poly but I highly doubt it. (Sensei never done a poly ending before and people tend to forget that both Kashima and Yacchan discussed about fighting for Toono. And seeing how both character don’t like seeing another man touch Toono I don’t think they would want to share him. Yacchan especially seeing him get so jealous every time he saw Toono and Kashima together.) But we shall see as it seems with vol 7 coming out there probably won’t be a new chapter this month as Sensei been working hard on that release and she going to France next month

I loved this work along with a lot of series she has done. Hope to see more from her.

Leaving the manga aside because the author updates irregular times, so we might get a update for months, I’m very excited for the OAV for episode 2. I really enjoy the drama cd adaption of it so to see it come to life is a wonderful experience. I haven’t really heard the community talk much though. April 17th please get her faster.

After reading the raws. Act 22 won’t resume until October issue which means in depth so might as just enjoy the ride for awhile,
