And of course after this conversation Ichi immediately resolves to start going to bed earlier so he doesn't keep Yamada up too late texting him.

The look on 1st year middle school Ichi's face makes my heart ache. I just wanna hug him and tell him everything's gonna be all right.

@gabrielaguilar519 That's actually the exact hoodie that he's wearing at the start of chapter 42 when he's reading Yamada's favorite manga and realizing that the love interest is basically a taller more confident version of him and then gets to the scene where that character calls out that the...

This chapter shows how far the two dorks have come over the course of the last volume or so- if this situation happened ~20 chapters or so ago Ichi would think he was doing her a favor by denying that they were close (since he was still in "she totally secretly hates me and would be ashamed if...

@DeusVult While it's pretty obvious that Moe and Nyaa caught on to Yamada's feelings for Ichi a long time ago, the author has stated that Chii is too immature to have figured it out on her own. Going by that, my guess is that the preview is Chii pointing out some obvious sign of their...

@TrapsAreBetterThanGirls @malagigi_encantatore He's taking the form of the love interest of the manga that Yamada's been getting him to read, primarily because (as shown in chapter 42) he's clearly just a taller and more confident version of Ichi.

@GiveMeANiceUsername Seems like next chapter is when we're finally going to get the full answer to what happened there. We know from the last chapter that he didn't go to the same middle school as the friends he had in elementary school did, and maybe that was the sole catalyst for it all, but...

First-year middle school Ichi makes my heart ache the more I look at him. Things are gonna get better, kid, you're gonna fuckin' make it. I'm looking forward to the Yamada version of this, though I feel like we probably won't see it until we learn a little more about her past.

It's cute how he texted her goodnight after failing to get himself to say it out loud before she hung up.

Chii going to the same elementary school as Ichi is interesting, since I always assumed that since she and Yamada were best friends they had known each other since before middle school. That means only Nyaa went to the same school as her, and chapter 17 implies that they weren't really friends...

@Sweet_Seats Considering how good a look she got at it and how big a deal for her that particular magazine was (see chapter 5) she 100% recognized it as a magazine she modeled in. Where it was hidden and the way he reacted to her finding it almost certainly made it clear to her that he *used*...

@giolleau Is there a reason why the top-left box of page 2 starts with "I, Ichikawa Tarou" rather than "I, Ichikawa Kyoutarou"? Checking the raw it doesn't seem like there's any such abbreviation of his name in that box.

As a reminder for those re-reading this after being caught up,

@blaqhawq @jeccccccccccccc The basketball didn't break her nose as she says in chapter 15.

It's cute that they're finally close/comfortable with each other enough to have this kind of conversation at this point. I feel like even where we are now in the main chapters (which at minimum is about a week before this could take place) his insecurity would be screaming "DON'T TALK ABOUT SHIT...

Page 6: Is funny the highest level of praise for you? Page 11: "You're funny, Ichikawa"

Someone else made me notice it, so now I'm going to inflict it on anyone who comes into this comment section: Yamada has six fingers on her right hand in that bottom panel on the first page.

So basically while we know from chapter 43 that Kyou-chan's insecurities were there back in elementary school he was still capable of actually talking to people (though I'd guess he never got particularly close to anybody,) then the one-two punch of puberty and middle school came along and he...

So this is basically the parallel timeline where Yamada's main romantic inspiration is an ecchi manga rather than a fluffy shoujo romance so rather than fuck around for dozens of chapters after realizing she liked Ichikawa she just dragged him into the nearest available empty room and took his...

Considering how loud his proclamation that he was going to go buy something was I'd be shocked if Moe and Nyaa didn't realize that Ichikawa was there despite them apparently not noticing him on the first page. And then Yamada gets up a minute later and goes after him. They probably started to at...
