Ah, I didn't know about the Dandadumber and Kagurabachi community (I'm used to just browsing the broader manga subreddit before abandoning Reddit). I'll crosspost each to the appropiate one. Thanks!
I hope Iriya manages to keep his mouth shut and we don't get too much drama around their relationship getting revealed some time in the future.
Still, there's only 12 chapters left so I guess this has to wrap up somehow. Hopefully the TL can keep up the pace for the remaining chapters and finish this series without going months between each chapter.
I can see why the TLs said they weren't a fan of this arc with the slightly forced double love rival thing going on. It's a bit tedious when every chapter there's seemingly progress, and then it ends on a "but what about the other girl/guy" vibe.
It's a bit of a tough read in the beginning as Ichikawa is extremely edgy and chuuni. But, he mellows out pretty quickly and has great character growth through the series. I really recommend reading it if you're into school romcoms, it's pretty light on the drama. The chapters are short, but packed with a lot of easily overlooked small details.
This mangaka is a master of creating goobers.
