Very true. Izumi is also very observant, which is a great skill to have when partnered with someone like Haruto. He notices little things about Haruto, like his excitement for the aquarium from his clothing choices, etc. Plus he is aware and understanding of Haruto's personality. In the latest chapter when he offered to go out to eat, he even asked if Haruto felt comfortable going out considering his mood. Not many people would take that kind of thing into consideration when dealing with an introvert. I want a guy like Izumi! ヾ(☆▽☆)
seriously, where can i find me an izumi???
I do feel bad for that guy but if I was in Haruto's position, I wouldn't want to meet the bully again. I don't even think I can talk to that person, there is no way I can be friend with that person again. Also, the way he treated Haruto in the past is not the same way as Izumi did. I don't think that is a good way to be friend with someone like Haruto. Haruto is quite introvert, Ichi-something was very outgoing and quite forceful. It feels very one-sided. Izumi, on the opposite, is very matured and understanding. He is very tolerant, kind, careful, patient and cheerful. His personality makes him a great listener/ partner for everyone, especially someone like Haruto. Even now, when I see Ichi-sth, I don't think he changed that much. He is still very forceful and doesn't notice how Haruto reacted to him. That makes him a very bad partner, even friend =.=. He doesn't realize that though.(づ￣ ³￣)づ
