That we're 44 ch in and I STILL cannot bring myself to like the ML (he's such scum), I'm only sticking around for the MC and because the younger brother with the cats cracks me up (honestly all of the MC family is such a hoot, wish they got more appearances)

Mind you, the fact he didn't even brush off or push away the girl THAT WAS FLIRTING WITH HIM when he was kinda-sorta in an emotional relationship with MC pisses me off even further. If red-flag sensei didn't intervene would he have just let her do whatever she wanted and followed her back??
You have the audacity to be mopey about MC having fun with his childhood best friend when you can't even set YOUR OWN BOUNDARIES WITH OTHERS is incredibly hypocritical to me.
Better yet, I'm rooting for MC with his childhood best friend bcz at least we know who he cares for and would stay loyal to the MC. I'm cackling at this situation and hope ML suffers more for all the shit he put MC through earlier.

Can someone explain what the connection is between Yuma and the blonde?? Are they brothers?? Friends?? More?? What is going on y'all

They’re not brothers
Blondie met Yuma at the part and they played a family game together with Yuma’s friend (the blonde girl). Yuma got confused that the blondie and yuma’s friend were both the same person, hence why Yuma doesn’t remember blondie.
Blondie was looking for his real brother until he met yuma’s gay friend (the burnt face dude) which directed him to yuma’s school until he reunited with Yuma.

......So it turns out she's a fake. But call me vindicative, I hope they screw ML over lmaoooo. Honestly, this was deserved in my eyes. He's so interested to see whether a true connection can form with his "real" name but he's being such a calculated dick about it.
This was truly his just desserts to be scammed at first lol. How does it feel to be punked back, even if temporarily since you're so clinical about your "fated partner" how about we have a "potential" one show up to test you yourself asshole. Honestly, lowkey wish they have another one show up just to screw him over again and MC is set free to love whoever he likes without being harassed by a punk who doesn't even know how to keep his hands to himself cuz he's sooooo curious.
Man, this was actually such a great golden opportunity for MC to just cut ties with him and go about his happy life without an EYESORE in the way. Honestly, they did MC a favor. Sadly the sham was found too soon. Can't believe I'm rooting for scammers for once but ughh does ML bitchass face release my worst self.
Gosh, hope ML gets diarrhea for a week since he seems to like turning every situation into shit with MC.
That was not nearly long enough, the MC folded like wet pancake and honestly the car crash was such a convenient gimmick to bring them closer for a pathetic redemption arc. The ML should have suffered longer considering what an asshole he was and the MC didn't even stand his ground. Could have at least made him wait a year to really earn his forgiveness and make up for everything he caused in this year. I can see why many people said the art was fantastic but the plot was meh.
