My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong As Expected

Page 448

Even if you tell me now, I'm not sure if I can really meet the deadline or anything.

Adults will say these things on the spot as an excuse to interrupt the conversation.

Adults are so unfair!

Pretending not to know allows you to continue doing things, while pretending to know would be very troublesome.

In short, no matter what I think, it will always bring me a lot of trouble.

Now let me think about how he will extricate himself from the predicament he has fallen into.

It was with this feeling that I wrote this book; my coming-of-age romance story was indeed problematic.

Now, as usual, spend a few pages in the review corner—

Of course, I think it's more appropriate to watch episodes 10 and 11 of the animated TV series now.

These are just personal thoughts from readers, viewers, and even the author of this work.

So just treat it like this, don't take it too seriously.

So, let's begin with episode 10, "What Each Person's Lamp Illuminates".

In this episode, we see Iroha Isshiki's bravery, Tobe's awareness from the beginning, and Hachiman's later appearance.

Hachiman would have walked over, right? But he didn't.

In the end, it was Hayato Hayama who refused, but who can say that Hayama wasn't a victim?

Hachiman, who was just watching from the sidelines, had no idea what had happened and naturally couldn't get involved.

He is neither a hero who helps the weak, nor a mouthpiece for anyone.

Hachiman is not the fearless sacrificer or selfless giver that people imagine.

He was a simple yet cynical person when it came to things he disliked.

As for Ye Shan, he only said a few casual and insignificant words.

He doesn't like Hayato Hayama, and of course, we often compare the two. They're just two different fragments of human nature. In the second season of the anime, we spent a lot of time looking at the changes in the people around us. The world is ever-changing, and even the supporting characters are constantly growing; it's just that we're seeing it from Hachiman's perspective.

It all started when Hayama came to the clubroom. Was it after his conversation with Hachiman? Or after he received help from the Service Club?

It's impossible to know for sure, but it shook his long-held beliefs. Perhaps, this was his turning point.

Isroyo has also changed a lot. Cunning? Cute? Scheming? Perhaps, all of this is just her way of showing off?

Isshiki's self-awareness also stemmed from her surroundings, and in some ways, she was quite similar to Hayama—though much rougher. But she wasn't rigid either, which is why she was captivated by her surroundings.

In the train carriage, she complained that her luggage was too heavy and asked Hachiman to help her carry it, and then shared her feelings.

And another thing, Ms. Sakura's line, "You have to take responsibility for me," was just so captivating! I almost blurted out "I do"...

The school is so small that we quickly see who bumps into whom. Whether it's Hachiman Hayama or Isshiki in the student council room, the service club, or the soccer club, we can really see Isshiki's diverse side and rapid growth.

Even if she initially worries and says, "Um—I want to know," in the end, she will say, "But I will do it!"

This is truly a perfect color scheme.

What's up with this Jade Rope Association President? He's spouting incomprehensible words and waving them around like he has a magic wand. Why does he sound so much like my boss?

It wasn't just Isshiki who wanted to break through this inefficient meeting; everyone in the Service Club wanted to, especially Yukinoshita.

Was Yukino's statement really only directed at everyone at Hamakawa High School? Or was it also an allusion to herself and the members of the Service Club? However, she certainly didn't say it on purpose.

Hachiman breaks through, Yukinoshita launches a fierce attack, and Yuigahama stitches up the wound; the three work together as naturally as if from a fable. In any case, these three have finally started anew.

We also see Orimoto treating Hachiman to black tea, which feels a bit like an old classmates' reunion. Orimoto is so cute, right? Right? But I still think Rumi is cuter!

Back in the clubroom, Yukino gave a cryptic answer, but Yui clearly understood what she meant.

During the New Year's shrine visit, Komachi was practically the perfect wingman! A romantic breeze seemed to blow under the cherry blossom trees. Komachi truly is the cutest little sister in the world!

That scene on the train, the changes under the snow were so obvious! The female lead? Is this the female lead?

Oh yes, that's right. But if you'd like, there are other heroines, like Yui Hama or something. Look at that shopping scene! Wow? A heroine? Is that a heroine?

Yes, that's right. But if you're interested, there are other heroines, like Yukinoshita Haruno or something.

Haruno is a very free-spirited character, and this time, she appears alongside Hayama. So far, no one seems to understand what she's thinking… like a con artist, or a clown or something.

After making fun of Hachiman and Yuigahama, she called Yukino over. Considering the timing and context, there was probably also a reason for letting Yukino meet her mother.

In the anime, Yukino secretly glanced at Hachiman. I would be honored if she could think carefully about why.

However, Yang Nai still warned as always, "Don't do that."

What a terrifying voice! Ms. Nakahara Mai's performance was amazing! Seriously, I hope everyone can listen to Ms. Nakahara's voice.

The trailer at the end shows that everyone's words have no necessary connection to themselves, so whose monologue is it?

Or perhaps, it's everyone's monologue.

Episode 11: "No matter what, Hayama Hayato always manages to meet expectations."

Ooka, you really are... how come you're usually so oblivious to your surroundings... it's kind of awful...

But Miura is still very cute! Especially when he glares at me in the hallway, haha.

The Service Club remained as peaceful as ever, and Isshiki's little trick of telling everyone about her birthday was incredibly cute! Cute, proactive, witty, and a little silly... if I had to describe her, she'd probably be like a ferret or a weasel? Her ability to step on landmines is also top-notch!

Miura walked in confidently, but briefly broke down; perhaps this was her pure sincerity. Of course, it was precisely this purity that swayed the three people and allowed things to unfold.

Freedom comes with its own set of obstacles, such as Yukino Yukinoshita.

The title mentions "following expectations," but is Hayama himself also expecting something? And what might he be expecting? Perhaps, he hopes Hachiman will understand him.

Haruno teases not only Hayama, but also Yukino, from time to time.

In the past, Hachiman would have thought, "If they don't tell me, I won't ask." But now, he is slowly changing.

Next came the much-anticipated door-opening scene—when the door opened, Yui, who was standing in front, realized something, but the other two did not.

Of course, everyone can imagine. Yukinoshita said, "There have been great changes compared to the past"—although there have been some changes in a certain sense, they are not as great as she imagined.

Perhaps only the three of them think this way, who knows?

But Hayato Hayama knew the difference—he knew things that Hachiman didn't, and he also knew that there might be something different in what Yukinoshita said.

Hayama has always hoped to achieve self-satisfaction; perhaps he believes that this will bring him satisfaction.

But where does the self-satisfaction of another person begin?

Let's stop here, until we meet again in the next volume.

Thank you to all my old friends.

Finally, thank you to all the readers who have accompanied me this far. Thank you all, and I hope we can all walk together to the very end of Part A.

I will do my best.

See you next time!

○ Little by little, in the warm room

A slightly chilly wind swept by, carrying away the saltiness of the sea. We set off from the other side of the mountain, heading towards the sea.

It also helped cool down my feverish cheeks.

The marathon has come to an end, and the awards ceremony, which I only caught a glimpse of, is also over. The staff are busy packing up.

Yuihama and I walked silently from the park toward the school.

In the past, I would probably have gone straight home. I wouldn't have wasted a single glance at the awards ceremony where Hayama had won a resounding victory.

There's no need to team up with others, since I don't care about winning or losing anyway.

But today, only.

Is it all my fault for being so stupid, or what should I say...? I'm probably the only person in the world who would slip and fall flat on their face and hurt themselves, right? And then Yui had to treat my wound...

In short, it turned into an unusual scene of two people walking arm in arm.

Walking on the narrow path, we squeezed in a little.

Would I seem a bit weird for deliberately paying attention to these things? ... So I just kept looking at the sky and the road, looking around.

I didn't dare look in that direction at all...

I gripped the slightly heavy first-aid kit tightly in my hand, as if to relieve stress.

He adjusted his grip slightly and let his gaze drift to the roadside trees beside him.

The leaves drifted down little by little, creating a somewhat desolate scene.

The sweat on my back had completely dried, and I felt a bit cold.

My ears turned red and stung a little. My tongue and lips were also dry and almost cracked.

All five senses were blown away by the wind, leaving them numb.

but,

In some places, there is still warmth.

Even if it's just one,

A place that cannot be seen or touched.

Suddenly, a fragrant aroma stirred my throat.

where?

I don't know. Maybe it's someone nearby?

I continued walking in the somewhat unsettling silence, the only sound I could hear was breathing.

Don't know whose it is.

Suddenly, the two breathing sounds overlapped—

"what……"

Yui smiled shyly, perhaps trying to hide her embarrassment. If I could, I'd like to smile like that too... but unfortunately, I don't have that skill...

It's strange, I've always heard that laughter is a common human skill.

Anyway, let's say something, even if it's insignificant compared to a smile. It's so convenient to divert people's attention just by opening our mouths; at least we need to get out of this situation.

"that……"

A quick question flashed across Yuihama's face, and surprise appeared on her face.

My arms were held tightly around her, and she looked at me as if waiting, with a slightly nervous expression.

The heat transferred from her clothes to mine, so clearly that the words I was about to say suddenly vanished from my mind—

……

"It's so cold today..."

That's all that's left in my mind, and just like I expected, it's meaningless...

"Hmm, ah...yes!"

As if unsure how to continue, Yuihama muttered meaninglessly to me, only managing to squeeze out a few incoherent words.

Perhaps she was tired? Her grip on my sleeve loosened a little.

The conversation ended there.

Returning to silence.

It's not that the sound disappeared,

Rather, the language is missing.

Only faint breathing sounds drifted in the air. I didn't know if something was hidden inside.

The only thing I know is that an untimely noise is rhythmically echoing within me.
