I’m enjoying the cosplay story and they are super cute together, but ugh, there needs to be some progress. The super dense male trope wears really thin after awhile.
Meh, at this point in the manga she’s not even a rival. More like a catalyst if anything. The manga’s about the two mains, not the late arrival of some childhood friend.
Sigh.....now to grind through the tropes with a bunch of girls I don’t care about. The author peaked with the main girl too fast. This is going to be a chore for awhile.
