Thanks for the updates. A thirty page chapter then right into a sixty page chapter. Felt a bit odd with especially how this one seemed to just end suddenly. That said, this arc featuring more of Kino's "meddling" should be interesting to read.
So, just binged the 8 chapters here. And I gotta say, Anna's a really terrible mc. Really wish literally any of the other characters was the protagonist.
The attempt is nice, but this manga's obsession with making sure they never properly communicate is getting real tired. And I'm sorry, but this time, it was also just another stupid fucking reason. Who cares about Christmas.
Stranger in your new apartment who tells you not to contact the landlord cuz this is totally legit, and he wants you to do whatever he says if you don't follow his list of rules. Even for manga, this is a lazy setup.
"What's the key to a healthy and understanding relationship?"
"Honesty and communication."
"Cool, I'm going to start things off by keeping a needless secret that will create a misunderstanding soon."
