Izumi: “WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN ‘HOW ABOUT ANOTHER’?!”
Ryouma: “Haha, that’s the spirit! You’ve found your voice again!”
Izumi: “Ah…” (It worked…)
Ryouma!!! He helped his love and got some kiss too. I love this manga XD
I really think he might just be my favorite character, gosh. I mean, he was kind of a jerk in the beginning with how he treated Izumi after finding out he was a guy, and the scene on the couch was not cool for a lot of reasons, but…with each successive chapter he just climbs higher and higher on the Making and Effort meter, and I like how he’d do pretty much anything for Izumi, even to his own detriment, but he still retains a backbone and can stand up for himself, doesn’t let Izumi’s obliviousness get him down and takes a stand now and then to be all, “Hey, you seem to keep forgetting this but I’m in love with you, so think about what your actions mean to me in a romantic context maybe? Because it hurts my feelings otherwise.”
I can stand oblivious characters so long as that obliviousness is called into question with enough frequency that it maybe will start to go away :P Izumi was straight straight straight, so I can totally buy him having issues coming to terms with Ryouma’s feelings for him (especially since initially they decided to just be friends), but I’m glad that Ryouma doesn’t hesitate to let him know how he feels when Izumi’s acting in a way that might otherwise give him false hope and lets him know, “Hey that’s kind of a jerky thing to do…”
I don't even know what I'm doing here. Mostly just looking for porn, I guess.
All-around thing-doer for September Scanlations.
