I'm kind of happy that the antagonist side character was made mc's new partner? I don't have anything against the ml and the mc should be allowed to partner with whoever he wants but it's always been a pet peeve of mine when the mc has a reputation for having high standards or being out of everyone's league or something and the ml pops up out of nowhere and almost immediately gets whatever he wants with almost no effort. I'm hoping the separation will be motivation for the ml to keep improving but it's staring to look like the mc's health issues are gonna guilt-trip-no-jutsu the dad/antag side character into accepting the ml as mc's partner.
