Heavily subtextual. There's a girl who seems to be head over heels for the MC and the MC is very interested and curious about the girl. Plus, it's based off a legit novel, not like a manga or LN, so the chance of it happening goes up.
It's not the focus, but its there and it definitely is emphasized.
Hold the eff up. I'm currently on episode 3 and I think it's super awesomely gay so far (meaning no offense), but someone is CONFIRMED to like the MC?
A name in a spoiler tag would be appreciated.
Also, am I the only one who thinks this manga's happy ending feels sort of forced?
