what i'm seeing here from honami's internal dialogue is that she doesn't want people to see her as anything but her "perfect" façade while being frustrated at the same time because everyone thinks she's just perfect. i love teenage angst.. /s

kaede gets a lead role in this which im kind of ambivalent on. i like kaede she's not annoying but i would have preferred konatsu. 

i can also see based on konatsu's appearance on the final two pages that we will now have some miscommunication on whether honami's being unfaithful despite the fact that They Are Not Even Dating. they dont even know they like each other. 

istg i'm doing all this just for maybe one kiss in the final chapter of volume 9 if not just a confession and thats it
