What do you MEAN "for a little while longer" *is* there a deeper meaning to that dream? Like, narratively speaking, I think it's obvious it should have a deeper meaning, but my mind is failing me here... I can't really grasp anything other than the fact Arita is just that special to him (and there's a lot to say about this being a them vs the world kinda situation) but all of that is old news... am I missing smth here?
Oh my god this was so peak it's less romantic and moreso a self-discovery and growth for the both of them, which I absolutely loved, and you can REALLY feel their struggles. I'm in love with it.
I found the "destroying the dear•verse" part kind of cringey? As in, more telenovela drama-esque than the rest of the story, since it's been very grounded so far... but I can look past it. Kirishima needed a more cathartic severance with his avatar, and that was a valid answer to those struggles.
In a way, it's interesting to see how he seems to struggle more with his self image than Honda. It's like he feels the pressure of not being perfect or up to standards, while Honda had already resigned himself to never really getting there.
This is very ominously over-the-top, but it's nice. The pacing's alright, the characters seem to have enough individual personality, and the FL isn't a complete doormat (although she's also not directly confrontational, so it seems others will need to sct against her first for the plot to move).
What tickles me the most about this, though, is that this is the exact plot an "orignal FL" would have in one of those "reincarnated as a villainess in an otome game" mangas. Everything is just so perfectly coincidental lolol










Very cute so far, although the pacing is worrying me a bit lol I hope this speed is only for the first chapter... anyways, the summary makes the king seem like more of a douche than he really is (even before Ai got summoned) but I hope he gets a stronger personality going forward
