This dude is an entitled brat and a damn hypocrite, calling kayden a 'brute' as if he's the personification of kindness and elegance murdering and kidnapping people because he couldn't take a 'no'. Take your waiting and your fucking delusions elsewhere, your feelinga are your own, no one owes you shit. She just doesn't want you, bro.
Hope Gestella wipes the floor with him. And maybe Kartein can kinda heal Blues, guy grew on me ( T T )

I really dislike the backstory. I hate how they made committing suicide seem like a flippant decision you make instantly just because you got a bit heartbroken and betrayed instead of the constant and prolonged struggle suicidal ideation actually is. And then on top of that they called it the 'ultimite sin' or some bs and treated it like it's the worst possible crime, fuck you honestly. People who reach that point don't need your damn judgement on top of everything.
I also dislike how it turned out to be a 'misunderstanding' at least commit to it, that cheapens it even more. He convieniently only hears those words -that he didn't have much reason to say in the first place-, conveniently isn't found for who knows how long although the grandpa is said to have gone to him, and at the end conveniently meets the grandson to hear the truth. It's kind of just eye-roll after eye-roll.

OMG this is feeling more and more like Hirano is actually aspec. I do like him and Kagiura as a couple (which they can STILL be), but I simply would love it if he actually turns out to be cannonically aspec.
There have been times I've had an inkling he might be before, but it felt particularly obvious to me in this particular chapter (28), especially with the use of certain vocabulary like "I'll ever be ABLE to", "repulsed", "care about" without specifying exactly in what way. Also with how much care and time they are taking to explore this dynamic and the boundaries of platonic/romantic it simply feels right.
I didn't want to assume before but now I really really hope this is actually where it's going.
I'm aroace myself and relate a lot to many things Hinaro is going through, from the guilt of not reciprocating feelings and inevitably hurting a friend to the touch aversion and the confusion of trying to define exactly what your feelings are when most conventional terms don't feel quite Right.
Sorry but dragging a grudge for 10 years and assigning blame to people completely unrelated to the incident because they happen to exist in the same place is simply unreasonable. I don't care how bad that accident was anyone with minimal brain power should realize how ridiculous it is to blame a person for someone else's action, espicially so an educator. It's proably trauma for her at this point, but you don't get to push your baggage on others. Imagine if I hated every german person I met on principle because of WW II
