Nagisa confesseeed!!! Asahi did too, but he ain't my man—he's sweet and all, but I dunno, I need a man. A strong, mysterious guy who only acts soft with his love interest, and everyone’s like, 'I’ve never seen him like this with anyone.' That’s my man, and that’s Nagisa.
Still, Kao handled the rejection so well, and Asahi took it like a champ too.
Finally, Nagisa realized his feelings… 7 volumes later.
I love how the love triangle is just as intense as the sports plot—lowkey, I think I’m into sports just for this.
