Even if this douche character get's a sad background, I would still dislike him, shitty circumstances aren't an excuse to do shitty things to others (I say this cuz I suspect the person in the hospital is his relative, based on his family portraits). So people doing bad things to others for the sake of it can fuck off
Oh it's very interesting seeing the point of view of Shizu-chan and how he interpreted things so far. Quite a realistic, but totally misunderstantood Hiiragi's reasons. I think they have a chance, but I bet this manga will keep us hanging (probably with some dread) for a bit until they become a thing xD










This remind me of a tweet I saw once of a guy whose daughter came out to him when she entered college or something and he was like "girl~ I been knew"
It was even more fun because the whole comments on the tweet was filled with parents that "been knew" about their queer children for years. (very nice and supportive too!)
