maybe it was only obvious from internal dialogue
novel spoilers: I dunno, both characters are so self-unaware or self-dishonest that even with alternating first person POV, it's unclear -- even to themselves, apparently -- why they do much of what they do. Felt like it took a while for it to be clear "both their home lives suck, Miyagi's lonely and Sendai's is suffocating, so toxic dickery is actually an improvement for both of them." And then when things ramped up, well, Sendai was just starting to get a clue when the decent translation stopped.
yeah i read the MTL one on story seedling, which actually wasnt that terrible compared to other ones i've seen lol. not sure if youre caught up but spoilers i guess? sendai makes sooooo much progress in developing feelings but she doesn't really say any of it out loud so I guess that's my concern? either way, reallllllllllly slow burn in light novel must translate to slow burn in manga
