He asked her out on this date didn't he? There. Dating.
I get it though. Japanese are big on the kokuhaku thing. As a westerner, I find it odd though. Dating as an adult in the west, there's no formal proposal of "going out." You ask someone out on a date. If you enjoy it, you ask again...
Ugh, more of this rape/cheating/NTR crap. I'm close to dropping this. I'm finding the MCs less and less likable.
BTW, woman-on-woman is still cheating/rape/NTR in my book. Doesn't make it more tolerable in any way.
@MoonRabbit -- Agreed. I think it woulda been more interesting if the MC stayed 37 too. I guess the author thought it'd be more relatable to younger readers this way.
That was a pretty weak reason to drag on the MC's virginity. It's transparent that the writer simply wanted to continue that dynamic, and he needed to come up with some reason why these two aren't in each others' arms. That's fair if that's what the writer wants. Just saying the rationalization...
I'm really not a fan of all the cheating and NTR in this manga. I can't seem to like Asumi when she's always cheating on her husband (yes, women count as cheating.)
Hey Tomo. He's beating you at this dating business by a long shot. Are you gonna just let him out-date you? I guess if you're alright losing to Jun... :p
Aww. I was seriously hoping this next page would be Jun, with his eyes still glued to the screen, reaching down and taking her hand in his. Tomo woulda probably died! lol
