this volume is going to really break away from the formula, as seen already with some scenes outside of their normal little gay nook. i looked at raws, so these are real spoilers, but not huge ones.
i still don't really understand what that sunken cheek look is supposed to be? do people who are worn out get sunken cheeks...? i get why she looks that way, but i've never really seen that look used to represent that feeling? cute chapter though.
Sunken cheeks represent a lack of energy, since people who don't eat or are of a certain age have Sunken cheeks, it usually means they lack energy. Hino got her life force sucked out by Kogama twice now.
I'd say Koguma is what I'd call a hard reversal bottom. It means she's is a complete and utter bottom until she reaches a certain breaking point where she suddenly becomes a hard top. Even normal hard tops can't compare to one who is reversed.
Hino on the other hand is a confident top, but flustered bottom. She's confident on top and flustered on bottom.
The human body is great. It adapts however I need it to. Everytime I reach a certain level of cuteness, my insulin production levels increased dramatically to prevent diabetes. Before, my rate was 10x normal from being in this site for years, after ch.10, it became 20x, and now, it's 50x. I'm soon gonna be more insulin than person.
Hino is legit a champ, because think. We are all dying of cuteness watching Koguma, but Hino is taking it all in person, where the cuteness is amplified. The amount of control needed to not jump her and headpat her until she reaches Hino's state after the kissing and smelling is amazing.
