*HISSSSSSSSSS* BACK OFF, WENCH!

Laura Castrillón

SHE IS THE SINGER

Tina Gomez

Please be right🙏🏼😩 Fujoshis assemble!

Tina Gomez

I hope you're right!!!😩

Tina Gomez

Yep we got a glimpse of it a couple chapters ago😩

Tina Gomez

Hold up, she textin Nao but Souta ain't??? Unh uh nope Souta you better start textin Noa rn😤 b*tch gone some where, runnin up to Nao like that

Angry Angel

I think she's cute, but she's also way too handsy way too soon, and cutting Nao off wasn't very cute at all.

DearNeptune!

That first panel makes me think of the song Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me) by the Temptations.

Carola

Now I'm imagining Souta buying two tickets but giving them both to Nao and telling him to go with Arashi (because he assumes Nao would rather go with her than with him)... and after a lot of misunderstandings Nao will tell him that there's no one he'd rather go with than Souta 🙂

Sora

Heres my theory. I don't think he'll immediately think she'll try to steal Nao but Souta will think it's better for Nao to be with a girl rather than him. He'll start to think he's not good enough to even be his friend anymore which we all know Nao wiill shut that shit down as soon as he hears that lol

ZimzalabimHYLT

FRRRRR I'm quite interested in learning more about her lowkey. She seems chill.

Keeshia M.

Oh no...my heart...my anxiety!! Overthinkers worst nightmare.

taimeow

If this is Arashi, I wonder if she texted Nao about the concert that Souta is saving up money for. If they like the same music, I could see her being super excited and wanting to go with Nao! Then Souta will have to decide if he will reveal his surprise plan to Nao or let Nao go with Arashi and be insecure about it (which I could see him doing) I just hope Souta doesn’t beat himself up for being a bit jealous of Nao’s new friends.

adzie✨

the dyed hair makes me trust her... I THINK SHE'S GONNA BE THE CATALYST TO GET THEM TOGETHER IN THE END.

Eloise Munro

Who this

Mari

I think a lot will be told about her when we see how she acts towards Souta. Cause like, what if Nao said they'd get along well cause she's as easy-going as Souta and behaves like that with anyone?

Mari

In my delusional mind, she's Nao's winggirl hahaha

Mari

If anything, I tend to think in Japan people usually aren't so touchy, culturally speaking, so I think it's a "her" thing? Like, I'm Brazilian and people here tend to be really touchy. I don't mind when it's like a hug when we're introduced and all, but for someone to grab me like she did, they have to have some level of intimacy with me, otherwise I get like "dude, let go of me" lol

Hibiscosaurus

Yeah I agree, she looks like a koala clinging on a tree 😭 and maybe it’s just cultural differences but it also irks me to see someone be so touchy with someone they barely know. Other than that she seems chill

Hibiscosaurus

I think it kind of happened with Ryuhei during the summer camp but yeah it could be nice for it to happen again. But I also feel it’s a good thing in this way since Souta is probably the one who will confess so it might make things move in the right way

Veiwan

ruh roh

july

In my (delusional) mind it’s a fake out rival, she’s actually a lesbian, and she becomes good friends with Souta too and ends up shipping our boys. Ideally she’d become a confidant for Souta to come out to and ask for advice about Nao and the queer world in general. I love my delusions!!!

Tarandra

Or at least : insecurity arc , love it ✨

Tarandra

I'm sensing that we are entering some jealousy arc 👀

Norin

Oh, our poor Souta baby 👀 I KNOW he has nothing to worry about, and Nao needs another close friend (assuming he's gay, isn't it even better for us that she's a girl..?)... But I still felt that pain in my guts. And how long did it take Souta and Nao to use the their given names and text each other 😭

_Star_ Flight_

Annnnd there it is😂 Que the angst!! ( also, I love her hair)

Silencio

Now wait till he sees Souta's nose 🤕

Atlanas E. Kildarin

Honestly, I think we know by now that Souta and Nao will end up together. Yes, it’s great that Nao has been able to be so comfortable with Souta, but seeing how he’s finally able to just talk to lots people like he used to as a kid, and be comfortable with other people other than Souta, is really good. I hope they get to be really good friends. (But yeah, pretty sure she might be the “rival” Aina was talking about 😅 Souta will definitely jump to conclusions no matter what the truth is.)

DearNeptune!

That's a great point!

Ari queenofcolor

Back back I say!!!🤺🤺

Nicholas

NO NOT LIKE THIS

Akash Sandhu

Ykw I might not like this but if this helps them get together then YES PLEASE

Locaa

away woman !!!🤺🤺🤺🤺

Mafuyama

Not another love triangle 😭 But actually, atp I’m convinced Nao likes Souta back, so I’m not worried about reciprocation. I’m just worried about the possible misunderstandings and miscommunication. 😭

Zarrytan

Me searching up what kun means when she called him Nao-kun: Kin is generally used by people of senior status addressing or referring to those of junior status, or it can be used when referring to men in general, male children or male teenagers, or close male friends.

GothSloth

Everybody be chill she’s doing nothing wrong (also I love her hair)

Anacota

so short 🥲

tsengslonghair

H-HELL NAW

R BRojas

If I remember anything about highschool logic, someone might convince Souta that the only way to know if Nao might be into guys at all is to come out. By pretending to date another guy. Someone Souta would be in cahoots with. Who Souta would never see that way.

Casey Deal

I feel like there is a big difference between “people touching Nao” and “Nao touching people”. I feel like Souta is the only one Nao touches. Even if more people start touching him.

Tink

Aw Souta!! Don't worry!! Nao does look brighter I'm so happy for him!

Mari

Also, wait, weren't those two guys in gym class with Souta? So they might have mentioned to Nao what happened?

DearNeptune!

I'm ready to see all his attention shift to his shining star, Souta. Not cause he's trying to be rude to their friends, but just cause he can't help it anymore. The feelings are loose.

Aicha Camara

She's probably going to ask him to join her group or something music related

Mari

Dude, I was telling Sandy just how cool Nao always looks! He really has the cool kid vibes, even the way he stands talking to others haha And yes, I wanna see him get hella worried about Souta's nose 🥰

Natalie

He did not specify! I reread it and he didn't refer to Arashi as "he" or "she"

Mari

Where's Keisuke when we need him? 😭

DearNeptune!

That would be a fun twist! A splash of surprise.

DearNeptune!

Okay, but look at how cute Nao is talking to their friends and just enjoying life! So much improvement, so sweet to see. And also, Nao didn't light up seeing new friend the way he's about to when he notices you're there, Souta. Don't worry.

Ragpie

REAL I’m tired of the whole “hating a woman character just because she ‘gets in the way’ of the mlm ship”

Emily Caton

Uh oh. Better make your moves Souta!

Mari

I think it's very likely to happen, considering there's the Café guy we haven't been introduced to yet

DearNeptune!

I told you it looked like he was gonna turn the corner and things were not gonna be wavy gravy! 👀

Zarrytan

Me waiting for someone to rival Nao for Souta's attention and affection for once 😮‍💨

procra

I guess I am too naïve but I did not see that coming and I am not happy but I believe in Nao 💪🏼

sebastien M

If I remember right the new friend is a guy ?

sebastien M

Omg I would love that drama

Mari

What if the title "Boys and Girls" also refers to the two rivals we're gonna meet, one being a boy and one being a girl? lol

ALICE

I KNEW IT!! (Ps: loving her hair)

Sandy Shar

Some people get close fast ya know...

Natalie

Oh no, is this the friend he made at the concert?

rae of sunshine

she's definitely known nao for a while because i get the feeling he wouldn't let a near-stranger cling to his arm like that

Mari

That's the stereotype I love

Mari

The gay guy (he's gay, idc what anyone says) and his girl best friend

Mari

Souta, baby, don't worry, he likes YOU (reminding Souta and myself at the same time)

ZimzalabimHYLT

Chat, we might be cooked. NOBODY BETTER BE HATING CAUSE SHE'S A GIRL I LIKE HER DYED HAIR.

Kari Stoltenberg

Naur

sleeption

I want Nao to have more friends!! please don't freak out, Souta, pleaseee don't look so sad 😭

Mari

PLEASE! I CANNOT BEAR NOT SEEING SOMEONE INTERESTED IN SOUTA!!!!!

SaltyButSad

felt it coming but still RAHHH 😭 also if i see anyone being sexist in the comments its on SIGHT (feel free to not like her but if i see anyone calling her a slut or thot or the like we gonna have issues) (patreons usually pretty chill tho im more worried about webtoon) (also i think she’s gonna be a lil fruity but that may just be me being fruity, and even if she’s not people should be normal pls and ty 🥰)

Mari

Lmao love the reference, but I don't think she is :(

Sandy Shar

Let's admit it though. If Nao were to have a best friend, not Souta, it would be a girl. I can so see that.

Sandy Shar

Yes please!!! Bring on the cafe boy!!!

Sandy Shar

Why the arm grab Aina?! You know not all girls do that right? 😢

Mari

I'm going to re-read all the scenes of Nao almost throwing himself at Souta throughout the week to keep from having a crisis bye

churrry

bye why am EYE feeling jealous…..im about to throw up

Sweetish

Choker? Black Nail polish? Dyed hair?! I know what you are, Arashi🤨(idek if that’s Arashi, please let me be delusional)

jen

could this be arashi? she has sort of an edgy look so it would make since shes in a band. I wish next week can fly by already this was so short!! but great work aina

Endia K

Ah. Yes time to throw myself down the same flight of stairs Souta just came down.

Mari

Gotta say though, she's stylish! I love her hair! But.... Nao better see Souta standing there and give him his attention. Just saying.

Ran Shindo

New character alert! And she looks pretty! Is she "Arashi" whom Nao mentioned a few chapters earlier? If so, it's kind of interesting how she's already on a first name basis with Nao considering they just met a few days ago. Anyway, I'm interested in what kind of role she will play in the story.

mixhelle

Angst has entered the room and usually I’m not like this but it can’t stay for a cup of tea since love is on its way to us (hopefully) 😭♥️

daws

The ANGST I’m not ready

RAE

oh the angst we are about to get

Samus Q.

〣( ºΔº )〣

Annie10010

Look I'm not surprised, just disappointed 😞 BUT! I am hoping this will push the development of their relationship further! (Please blind hope is all I have left 😭)

Quint James

AND WHO IS THIS?!

Mari

Also, yeah, Arashi is a girl. I refuse to dislike a girl for simply being a girl who's a potential rival, so I'm gonna give her the benefit of the doubt. But I do not like how touchy she is. Dunno if it's because I hate people who barely know me and feel like they can touch me whenever they want and I'm just projecting, but it made me annoyed lmao
