I thought we've already done with this ship and move on to the other ship?

Honestly, It's Kiriyama who is too dense. I mean Hina showed multiple times to him that 1) If anything, she's only interested in Takahashi-kun (he helped them himself) 2) He doesn't really think of him of anything other than a family . It jsut doesn't logically follow. I feel like the author kinda slipped with this whole engagement thing (unless she has some long-running strategy to resolve this), because there is no way Hina will end up with Kiriyama and it's obvious for everyone involved (except, maybe, Kiriyama himself).

@flashmozzg

Hina does like Rei. She just has no confidence in herself. They are actually both incredibility dense. Chapter 152-153 delves more into Hina's complex about it and you'll see how it's resolved.

@undeadclown I've read them and still feel it was somewhat forced. Everyone in Kawamoto's family likes Rei. Akari likes Rei just as much and her relationship with him was no less developed than Hina's, while Hina actually had crushes which were never really resolved (i.e. last time we saw her with Takahashi, she was still blushing over him).

 

[reedercat]

I think Akari started off thinking of Rei as another stray to take in, and now he's been slotted into "brother-in-law"

Lolololololololol

Hina obviously loves Rei and of course her sister too. When you really love someone you just wish all of the best for them, and for Hina, that means them getting together. As long as Rei can stay by their side, Hina is probably going to be ok with anything, if even that means suppressing her own feelings. Her logic is most likely to be: if people I love are happy, I'll be happy. By the way, I think the crush she had on the baseball guy was probably more admiration than love. I think Akari mentions this point in one of the previous chapters when she was discussing with their aunt about Hina's love interests. In my opinion, Takahashi just left too soon for her to develop real feelings.

The thing is that Hina doesn't realize she's the key to Rei's happiness. Yes, Akari physically saved him, but Hina also saved him, psychologically. All the Kawamotos have been extremely helpful, but it was Hina who really changed him. Moreover, I don't think Akari has any romantic feeling towards him(?) Well, it's more like she doesn't think about this kind of things. And she knows their feelings towards each other so...

RIP

For Hina's eyes, Kiriyama went from "friend - to - dear friend - to - amazing friend that fake a marriage proposal to help us - to member of family - to - big bro - and now... BROTHER IN LAW"

REST IN PIECES Rei.

Thanks for the translation.
I feel soooooo bad for Kiriyama. Savage.

 

[JackHuncho]

I'm laughing so hard, what a downfall, this is getting worse and worse for Kiriyama

 

[edp1614]

hoh?

 

[Leluoch707]

@M_Y I agree. Hina still doesn't have the maturity of thinking about love. But still it was really savage lol. Respect for Rei
