This isn't allowed, is it? Progress in my Akutsu-san? For as much as this series has tread water, this confession happened quite suddenly, and the cliffhanger from last chapter was almost immediately undone. Let's hope that things go smoothly from here. The way it ends without seeing Akutsu's response has me nervous that something is going to mess this up still.
Oh, Akutsu-san is definitely going to screw this up somehow. I also expect Ooya-san to be dead close by, with the characters for Ooyama-kun written in blood next to her!
