Average shoujo romance. Maaya is irritatingly insecure IMO, and I don’t think her character is consistent. She worries about making Chigira happy, and then…decides to have a Christmas party with his little sister and a bunch of little kids instead of spending it with him alone? Does that make sense? She also makes Tezuka show up, and for some reason doesn’t tell her bf about the IOU coupons that she was given by his “rival.” It’s just odd.
Tezuka unexpectedly has a FWB, and for an unknown reason Ren doesn’t seem happy to see Tezuka. The whole thing is pretty messy. It’s implying something about the future - presumably he will have to go off to pursue whichever career he wants. Looks like possibly medicine instead of law. It’s putting out a sense that his grandfather is pressuring him about the future, and he’s hesitant to tell her something important but wants to spend time with her. It would be better if the author put a hint of it in this volume so the reader can tie these things together…
The artwork is very generic. Sometimes his eyes are super blank, which is not a good look.
