I think this one still has a whole lot of potential, assuming it doesn't get axed.

Small typo on 8.2 page 8:

they're -> their own different kinds of love

What happened to sayo's arrows? Has she lost her love?

Probably nothing, you just dont always see the arrows.

There are definite parallels between the teachers' thruple and the MC's roommates, at least visually.

You know, that would make for a VERY shocking twist. But most likely the artist simply forgot to add them in.

Possibly.

Another theory is that she's a little confused by the accidental kiss and maybe isn't certain where her love is at the moment. The arrows do seem to show up in full force when emotions are involved so if someone isn't actively feeling at that moment, they simply may not have any arrows. (Like if they're thinking about doing homework or having to clean the kitchen instead of the person they love).

Damn, I was hoping for shipwars after reading the first few chapters.

As someone who was rooting for Rinna, give me all the copium, this is looking like a poly ending.

My guess would be there is no change in her affection so they don't need to be shown.

It would probably a big mess and also a huge load of work to make the arrow everytime. I think the author just make the arrows when the feelings is strong enough.

Yeah probably. And they have enough to draw already.

I think it's more that it's trying to show that Rinna is exclaiming her love super loudly at the moment.

I don't have an issue with a poly route, but the way we are getting there is so sloppy. The two girls outside of the MC accidentally kiss and then MC happens upon a poly relationship that has two of her teachers like the convienence of it is so lazy

I kind of imagined this manga would be the two girls who like the MC trying to flirt with her in different ways and the MC being like agh I don't want to love but it's really turned into something else entirely-

It kinda reads to me like the author realized that poly was an option partway through writing the series, honestly.

Yeah dunno why people get all frisky about polyamory and whether people accept it or not. Technically it's been sanctioned by society for a very long time. Mormons practiced polygamy for a long time until they were forced not to. I'm actually not entirely sure why it's not more widely accepted other than the roots of treating women like property.

I'd argue that is because men have always been seen as superior and women as property. It's easier for men to have multiple wives and other men are seen as competition. If they were to "share" a woman with other men, then they would definitely be called cucks.

Personally I am all for the idea IRL, but it does have its problems practically. For example, there may be instances where two people like each other a lot and then also you, but not as much as each other. So that can make you feel kind of jealous and lonely I imagine. Poly probably works best with at least one person being asexual, or not very attached to romantic feelings. Or sometimes the third person comes in, and then suddenly the person you like a lot likes someone else a lot more.

Jealousy works differently for polyamorous people. When you're in a committed relationship, there is no "liking someone more" because you care equally about the people you're with. Funny thing also, when polyamorous people see their partners together (or with their metamours), they experience the opposite of jealousy - it's called compersion. It's a sort of happy feeling where you feel loved.

Sincerely, a bi polyamorous asexual.

Tbh this is the whole argument in a nutshell, the story was never about "who Will she end Up with" But "Will she overcome her trauma".

We can see All the way back in the stranger confession chapter that Mei is much too vulnerable to handle a flirting battle

I was hoping the teacher and the nurse are dating but the author exceeded my expectations and actually made it poly!!

If it isn't too forward, might I ask if you're an ace of spades or an ace of hearts? Just curious is all.
