It will probably happen by the end of the season. Honestly I didn't rage, I just felt super bad for a certain someone.

The editor? "Uh... you want to run with this as a story concept? I think the plot twist generator machine may be malfunctioning."

I don't think there was anything pasta-worthy. Just the general "sluuuut" and "dropped" and the A Town Where You Rage/Kimi no Rage nick.

Episode 4

Oh snap! That is not normally part of my vocabulary, but it just came out when there was the reveal.

So should the main character just keep his mouth shut about it, or should he actually tell the truth?

So the spoiler[guy was confessing to her in the past, she moved away for a bit, got a guy to fall in love with her (she kissed him) then she moves back and then dumps her long distance boyfriend and dates the guy that kept confessing] to her. You might have to question persistence or not asspoiler[ she obviously eventually gave into the guy].

Well I kind of want to see what happens now.

Episode 4

Ouch, two hit combo. spoiler[Not only did you just move to another city and transfer schools only to get spectacularly dumped but your new friend who just cheered you up about it and urged you to steal her back is her new boyfriend.] Surprised

In fairness, the first of those hits was self-inflicted.

Was this really the best way Gonzo could think of to adapt this show? personally, now that they revealed that spoiler[Kyousuke is dating Eba and he has no idea that Haruto is chasing Eba], these flashbacks just seem pointless now.

Episode 5
Well that was kind of a spoiler[cute flashback I guess. Mini Haruto and Eba were cute. Oh and ofc they met each other before because of that photo during the fireworks festival].

Guess some more truths coming out next week from Eba...

Lots of misunderstandings in this episode..
Guess they're filling in the blanks about Haruto - Eba past.
It was totally ROFL watching her spoiler[keel over that bike] all the time ^^"
Didn't expect those two to have such aspoiler[ long past.]
More and more I wonder what went wrong between them..
They seemed to get along so well all the time.

Episode 6

I was theorisingspoiler[ that she was only dating the guy because he was sick and dyeing soon], I did not expect that I would turn out to be so right, I thought that it was too ridiculous to even post that here.

So on one hand she is spoiler[maybe doing something nice in being girlfriend to a guy who like her, she likes him to some extent, and does not have much to live]. This makes what the main character doing in trying to spoiler[take her away as being a bit of douche]. But on the other hand, it looks like she is spoiler[only dating the guy out of pity, and doing that is kind of bad]. And it is actually pretty spoiler[respectful in some ways in that he is being perfectly honest to his new friend and giving him a fair fight instead of just pitying him].

I would look at it as some sort of middle ground. What he should do in the mean time? Make her jealous! Twisted Evil I see what is happening in the OP. The spoiler[guy has a rather small time frame] as it is, one time where the main character can spoiler[win just by waiting].
