Raw spoilers/ I do think their moments get cuter, but I really have to forget everything until that point cause this is a woman he barely knows, that wanted to destroy both his best friends' happiness by breaking them up while faking a friendship with Izumi. Her situation compared to Eiji is stupid cause she barely knew Nao, it sounds so obsessive I really hope she has a backstory. I don't ship them & like you can't get why they have so much support. Until now Eiji has shown no interest in her. Like a week later after he befriends NaoIzumi. I would have liked some more moments between them, as people and not as plot issues, to say hey they can work. Instead I can only remember Eiji being annoyed at her, then identified with her by liking a substitute. It was all too abrupt to me.
In any case I don' t like Fujimura,but I'm sure people do because she is of the few that have personality. Everyone is too bland in this manga. IzumiNao are boring themselves and as a couple, Taichi is meh & boring.
As for Ikezawa while I was shipping them, author is leaving her in the worst situation. She has 0 chemistry with Taichi and all her interactions with Eiji now has him with sweating as if she was going to eat him alive, this gives the impression she is going hard on him when she is just talking. Now Fujimura tells her they kiss, because she now wants to be the bad guy, it gets exhausting. Like all I want for Ikezawa now is to get away from this people. I have the feeling she'll help Fujimura be with Eiji, as well.
Exactly with what Fujimura really messed around with...
It's true that she does have personality it's a really frustratingly annoying one sadly
I guess I also compare this plot too much with Nijiiro Days because it's just so good and seeing this is really naah. At least the start was really good until Fujimura's drama came to show...
I don't really know, but if they get together EijiXFujimura with sudden turn of behavior and love interest and sudden cute moments, I'll drop this...
As you said the moments with IkezawaxEiji are well not helpful for her. Honestly, if they change it so quickly with Fujimura, they could have also done with Ikezawa and I would have fully supported that...
Thx for this reply :D!!
on the contrary, i like the drama and the chaos fujimura created cos its not really a straightforward thing and compared to other straight forward shoujo, this messy thing is quite a good refresher. not always u see in shoujo the bad girl got the good ending and her character is more in depth than the other two.
izumi is simple, she's that girl in every other shoujo. ikezawa is boring and too straightforward and i pity taichi for even still want to like her after getting blatantly rejected by her. u dont expect fujimura to end up with eiji cos u'd thought she's that bimbo that would end up blindly back with ex taka. but her character development is good and she's more complex compared to the two (prob cos she's supposedlythe main girl) plus they added more drama for her by adding stalker guy sugi just so she and eiji can bond more over that (eiji always saving her from him that is). and sure they dont like each other but since chapter 7 when they got together i think eiji and fujimura has at least wayyy more chemistry than ikezawa and eiji since he showed no interest to her at all. the love-hate relationship between them gets u going its kinda cute. idk for me that is.
i'm simple, i got triggered. guys why dont u drop this then and dont read if u hate the drama and why bother even reading the raw to trigger urself lol
Yeah Ok from this view I understand why there are some that like this a lot.
After seeing the drama, I always wanted to drop it but I continued this because I really like Eiji's character but now that I heard of the raws, I have now decided to not continue this anymore.
It's only a normal thing that some like or dislike a character I knew that Fujimura probably wouldn't get back with that Taka. I just wanted to believe that no one gets together with anyone. As I said after dropping that ship with IkezawaxEiji cuz I also realized at some point that it won't work out anyway, that I kinda think that none of them seem really ready to go through a healthy, unproblematic and real relationship.
And Thank you for your honest review.
Some people read or watch stuff they don't find good. I also like the art, and Noji the only fun male character. I already think this manga is nowhere near as good in character development than Niijiro days, which I enjoyed. I just want to see how this ends, & if stuff goes the way I think. Also hoping author becomes a bit more gentle to Ikezawa's character and if the other charas become interesting. We can discuss why we don't like Fujimura much or the plot points freely. I really dislike when people go 'drop it' tbh, it takes a minute to scroll through a raw. I'm not invested enough to care about any result at this point. So I'm not triggered at all, I can still dislike stuff or read to be amused :)
I was actually liking how Fujimura's story might be going until Sugi. It was such a lazy insert character tbh and I wanted her to woman up and deal with it instead of relying on someone again. I wanted her to become friends with Eiji properly or show some more friendship between her and some other girls. I find it too sudden for Eiji who was so into Izumi to move on so quickly. It might later become a 'was not in love with her after all 'thing, but I wish we could have seen more of Fujimura and Eiji actually having a good time before the kiss. I don't have an issue with 'bad girl' winning even if I don't even see Fujimura like that, but I get it might be refreshing. I felt the way it was done and how it'll probably follow now (her trying to distance herself because she went from sketching to 0 in a week, him chasing, ikezawa being scary to Eiji, taichi being there). In any case I was sure Izumi wouldn't be with eiji, and ever since some chapters I felt it was obvious it was going to be EijiFujimura, fake lovers to real lovers isn't exactly so rare. I'm sure nobody was expecting Fujimura to go back with Taka tho, he was an ass and it would make 0 sense.
I also wished Eiji would not be in literally every triangle in the manga (again, I already don't even care if Ikezawa doesn't end with him, just it can't be the only plot point, Eiji dealing with 3 love triangles) or that the characters would have more to do than just being in love and talking about love 24/7. I'm sure Niijiro having better developed characters might have hurt my enjoyment overall, same as Sufle. And the fact it's been EijiFujimura's focus almost solely, except for flashbacks.
Anyway don't get too triggered Rojeshi, things look good for Fujimura and it's probably the fave couple of the fandom & the author.

When this plot just started I thought this would be only a slice of life genre but now this whole drama about their relationships really drops the mood the manga started with where I had expectations.
Eiji, to me at least is a likeable character. I really felt for him from the start.
It's the other characters that really annoy me. But really everyone except that Ikezawa and Taichi. The others are plain annoying.I don't and can't sympathize with Fujimira honestly.
I don't want anyone to get together. IzumixNao is fine. The others aren't ship able at first I wanted EijixIkezawa but it is clear that Eiji in his state of mind isn't open or ready for any kind of serious relationship imo.
Fujimura can continue chasing after any other guy if she gets rejected just not Eiji please I can't imagine them together. I've seen the raws and the pace that she suddenly likes him is so... naah.
Izumi and Nao are really boring and simple characters to me.
I did like their story how they came to go out with each other but I think this manga started to drop in my ranking when Izumi transferred. I would have found it OK if she had met Eiji by chance when she came to visit Nao..
