TLDR: A heartbreaking story about a teenage boy who got broken, it's really confusing until chapter 20.So, the tags are kind of misleading.So far no real Romance or Heartwarming moments occurred, and unreliabile narrator could be added.The story stars when the MC gets 'broken'. He has been pursuing the FL for 2 years now, with her always rejecting him. He was also neglected by his family in terms of his worth. So finally he stopped caring. He looked at himslef in the mirror and realized that for the last 2 years, he has been only focusing on the FL.So from this point on, he tries to play the part of an average student who is admiring his idol from afar (the FL).This confuses the FL as she got used to him always praising her and being around her. She doesn't really know what kind of feeling she has for him. She acts like an 'S' towards him and thinks MC should be happy with their previous arrangement.She is most of the time berating him or belittling him.Example, from when a group of classmates were going to FL house and MC was asked if he wanted to come (by a friend).;Spoiler
"Hmm... ! I can't let my sister get close to someone like 'you'! I can't let bad influence come near to Airi !!"
[collapse]When we do get FL POV, she doesn't seem to like MC at all from the readers perspective. Small spoiler of how FL thinks talking to a classmate:SpoilerWell, it's better not to have a rebellious period. Sasaki-kun is handsome, so I understand why his younger sister loves him so much. Even me, I feel like I might want such an older brother too..... Wataru? Hmm... No way.
[collapse]Honestly it took till this chapter for me to actually understand what's happening. The first 20 chapters are hard to understand and the attempted humor falls flat. I think the author didn't really know what kind of direction he wanted to go towards
