Why of all things

This has the opposite problem of so many dislikable manga I've been reading lately. Most stories will have a cast of completely unlikable or overall too flawed and off-putting characters with the one redeeming character being at the butt of all their assetry, pun intended or not. This is the complete opposite - this manga is adorable, the pacing is nice, the characters are unique and memorable and have chemistry - all except that gotdamn seme! Senpai what's-his-face is the most stupid out-of-touch with himself sociopathic dumbass to take advantage of not only the MC but the whole goshdang story because of all his faults. "Does that make it clear?" Of course it fluffin' doesn't, that's the same thing you've always done, which you yourself admitted to doing before you realized your own feelings! It could've been so easily avoided too, that's what gets me! If it had been subtle, doing the yaoi trope number thirty bajillion of wiping the food off the face and licking it, and then amping it up to a lick /maybe/ and then doing some kind of finishing blow with a kiss and /that's/ when he realizes he's in love, perfect! You got it! Done! Yeah it wouldn't be as smut-fanservicey, but when it's the same scene over and over, it's not fanservice. Not to mention, I personally find it much more gratifying, especially in cutesy manga that's trying to be actually cute, when both people are actively consenting!
Huff. Enough ranting. I love the side characters. Acchan is my son, he's an incredibly good boy and friend, and Mika-chan is an excellent father. Many tears will be shed at Kouta's wedding, probably by her. I will also give this series the one saving grace that almost redeemed it for me - The "ugly" MC is not an outcast!! That is so big!!!! He not only has close friends, but he's offered treats by his fellow classmates and isn't judged for his enjoyment of food as a consistent point of mockery! Bless the death of that horrendous trope, RIP in peace!

    Sooooo..................................Do u like it or not???? Anime rules!

    I think I do??? Geh, it's like...I like it for it's potential, and the good elements are really good. It makes me sad that the one flaw it has is so big, but I'm able to remove it far enough that I do end up liking it.
