this volume was sooo cute and they immediately lost me with the introduction of a potential second love interest ( )

The possibility of her first kiss has never been closer for Eriko Ichimura, but overthinking and miscommunication between her and Akira Ohmi promises to thwart it even more than the bullying, jealous classmates who are ready to attack anyone who might become the sole object of Ohmi's affection. Throw in a sports day and the bandaging of minor scratches and there are tropes aplenty again, but for some reason the energy sparked with me this time. Looks like I'll have to pick up Vol. 4. ( )
