It's a kind of how I felt about Seku Tsuga. It was building up well. Then *spoilers* we get back story of a previous a-hole, quick closure/getting over it, and back to the nice guy who he broke up with for absolutely no reasonable things were going well. And he was like, okay, let's get back together. WTF? A lot of manga end up feeling like they just ran out of time.
But based on the chapters already out, I am unsure AzusaxKaede is going to make more sense after this.
A lot of manga's seem like they have run out of time because they do sometimes. Sometime the manga run get shortened or extended suddenly so they have to change up the plot suddenly to adjust for it. Have you ever read Hidoku Shinaide? It's really changed as it's gone on and people always bring it up. That's because the first volume was the only thing originally planned for it. The response was good and the mangaka wanted to do more so it was extended until now. As a result, the whole story changed. Seku Tsuga might be a story that got shortened, IDK. But at least Seku Tsuga's lead were likable.

They just didn't have any chemistry. Good chemistry can make people overlook tired cliches, bad plot, and questionable content. It's the very least you should have if nothing else you have is strong.
After reading this, I don't want these characters together. I'm not rooting for their ship. And tbh, outside of them as a couple, they aren't interesting as individuals either.
