I mean, Hino really didn't do anything wrong, technically. As far as we saw. Knowing her, she may not have been smelling just the softener...

Ho ho ho...

Two points:

• Hino never actually claims that she was sniffing the fabric softener.

• Koguma will need to get dressed without her panties. (So I retract my earlier "no punchline" claim-- that's the punchline.)

• Koguma will need to get dressed without her panties. (So I retract my earlier "no punchline" claim-- that's the punchline.)

Not that being bottomless around Hino would be something new for her by now... :D

We'll never know what exactly made the sniffing sound... Ho ho ho

Let's not forget, Koguma will also need to get dressed in Hino's clothes for the time being, since hers will have to go into the drier first. Add "no undies" to that and, well, let's say I'm looking forward to it.

This domesticity makes me wonder what kind of misunderstandings they'll have once they finally start dating.

Those are some amazingly tiny panties.

Koguma is just that smol.

I hope it doesn't end when they confess (whenever that may be)

my biggest fear.

i need like 200 chapters of them being lovey dovey and hino teasing koguma until she explodes.

Which wouldn't take much, let's be honest...

Oh there are reasons, alright

Well, in this case there's the contradiction that Koguma says she's "suspicious" about what Hino might be doing but subconsciously seems to mean that she's "yearning for" what she suspects Hino might be doing.

I'm coming to believe that these two are basically gaslighting themselves.

Oh I agree. This is why Hana ni Arashi is one of my favorite manga. Starts off with them already dating XD But I'm always for stories having a build up, like Bloom into You or Can't Defy the Lonely Girl. They are satisfying.

(I feel like fans will go insane when this manga has a confession scene, and I will be right there with them. It'll be so cute!)

I think this could use the Reversal tag. Since Koguma does them about one in five times.

It looks like they've been applying Reversal to the specific chapters where that happens.

Oh, how awesome!!

Anyway does anyone know if Hino Nagisa's parents are alive? She seemingly only has one bed in the whole place AND a family altar. I think one or both are deceased. Maybe the family owned a small flat? Or she's paying rent with an inheritance?

It's been theorized that they're dead, but there's no hard evidence of it. There's a scene in chapter 45 that hints at it, as put (in no uncertain terms) forth here.

I wonder if that's when they died. Remember Hino being called to the office, rumors spread she was suspended, but that day, suddenly, she didn't care about anything?

Maybe her grandmother died then. But that day that Nagisa got called to the office, was when her total apathy started.

This whole series, by the way, while being a romantic comedy, skirts other issues quite often. It creates a lot of tension.

And there's still so much to unpack, we should see this one go well beyond 120 chapters, probably over 150 if it doesn't get the axe.

I don't think it happens often enough to merit the tag for the entire series.

That tag should only go on a series if Reversals are a major theme, such as in my fake isekai manga called: "I woke up as a space alien babe, but my girlfriend keeps topping me even though I want to top her."

If the joke was that every time Hino tried to do something to Kogu it backfired, then it would get the tag for the series. This is how I generally try to approve tags. If a tag is an important element or theme of a chapter, or series then it gets the tag.

• Girl takes a bath at a hotel, but it's not shown in the manga? No Bath tag.
• Entire chapter, or much of it pertains to baths, such as a scene where the bath influences characters' behavior? Bath tag for the chapter.
• Entire series is about the appreciation of hot springs? Bath tag on the series.

[92] omgomgomgomg!!! it's probably just a tease, but!! but!!! aaah!!! remember that one chapter where hino peeked at kogu's panties while she was sleeping, but it was never shown to not have happened? maybe this also happened??!! maybe it was just a kiss on the forehead!! but!!!! !!!!!!!!aaorsntoaresntoiensthroi1!!!!

sorry this took a bit, but the holidays slowed me down a bit.

I practically screeched when I saw that last panel (although I doubt they actually kissed but let me dream damnit)
These two continue to be cute, thank you for continuing to work on it Stan + runrin! <3

I'm happy, my day is saved
aaaaaaaaaaaa

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HINO WENT FOR IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
At least 40% chance Koguma is awake or nearly awake, I think.

NO WAYYYYY

?!?!?!?!?!

:O

Gah when this thing cliffhangers, it really hangs.

WHOOOOAAAAAA
About time we get some progress
