Samus Q.

Souta is a manic pixie dream girl

Azherwind

it's so funny how Nao refuses to say "our" when talking about the circus cafe, he just won't include himself in all that nonsense lol despite being the same class

Quiet chapter, but so wholesome <3

I think what i love most about this chapter is that this is the first time we see something romantic (as opposed to intimate) between the characters and how Nao reacts. The big question up until now is "does Nao reciprocate these feelings? And if so, is he handling it any better?" So far, we've seen him having really bad reactions to a girl trying to getting close to him (at the end of nationals) but that said more about his emotional state and who he's comfortable with opening up to rather than his preferences. What i like about this is the fact that it's the biggest cliffhanger yet. We get treated to these amazing telltale facial expressions that let on more about their emotional state than the actual dialogue does. Judging by Nao's expression--and i could be totally wrong--tells me that he has way more feelings for Souta than the other way around for more reasons than he can comprehend. Souta has a stable, supportive family, which is why he can tell what he's feeling and why. Nao had a supportive mother and absent father, which is what creates his anxious attachment pattern; we just haven't really seen him fully attach himself to anyone yet. It's just beginning its formation: "We only see Nao smile again because of him." What his face depicts to me so eloquently is: "This is my chance... but I need him." The coolest thing about this to me is that this wasn't originally thought out this way, but these characters have taken a life of their own. Or maybe it's just my wild imagination ^^"

the subtle implication that Souta felt kinda sad, anxious and or lonely walking home every day without Nao and had to find a way to burn energy and make the trips shorter says SO MUCH about the impact he has in his life

I like how the focus seems to be more on Nao right now. It’s good to see the comic from his perspective.

Haha Good luck trying to keep a straight face when Nao put his arms around him riding the bike.

Wait a second I have to check smth Edit: okay I looked through the character bios and q&a's, no signs of clown phobias yet

Monty Mon

Smooooooth

Megan Pawlak Arts

Not an uncommon phobia or we wouldn’t have had the clown epidemic circa 2005

Megan Pawlak Arts

That can be scary if you’ve never done it before! Also, I think Nao feels doubtful about the circus theme. Lol

Elliot Summers

Waiting, just for Nao's response...

Sam_3824

I wonder if Nao is going to be afraid of clowns. I could be completely wrong but idk it's just an idea I had.
