Now that I think, Hotaru could just use her "bombs" to make Kokonotsu agree on taking over the shop. "Be the next owner and I will be yours" or something.
Asian here. Can confirm 10 is too young to study derivative. Should be at least 6 more years. Here we have those problems as a part of university entrance exams.

why not? Actually this manga is based on a series of artworks from a Thai artist. So our writer/illustrator only follows the original character designs.
Edit: grammar.
In the original Kaguya-hime story, she gave the prince whom she treasures an elixir of immortality. He didn't drink it though, but burnt it.
Sooooooo, maybe this time things will be different.
@cyzeed this lady Yakumo still reminisces the memories of her husband, and our MC happens to look like him. This boy most definitely has a thing for her, as we had seen his thought "You (Yakumo) are the one I... (love))". So yeah, it's slow, but the romance is there.
I want to avoid the name because it might start a war. Let me give you some hints: the MC is a good-for-nothing son of a yakuza boss, and is surrounded by beautiful girls. Despite all the superior choices he decided to end with a blonde tsundere who abuses him every second they see each other.
