This is going to be a long wait. I think it will take at least 2-3 chapters for the words to come out of Daiki.

Ughhhh Why can't you just say it Daiki! Though I guess you're conflicted and all that, but seriously you gotta say it :/

Yay Mao for finally, somewhat, guessing something that has probably been pretty obvious for a very long time...

i'm actually glad that daiki didn't say anything. not because i didn't want him to, but because had he confessed after she asked him not to, it'd have been tainted by him not respecting her wishes for me. i think this series would be SO much more enjoyable if i could just read the chapters back to back. /sigh (not that it isn't right now, but sometimes the waiting.. yeah. drives me kinda crazy.)

Wow, good for Chi-chan and Oda. How many times has Daiki tried to tell Mao? I had a feeling he wouldn't do it this time either. But he's finally got Mao thinking about the possibility of him liking her.

Oh god, Chi-chan and Oda? I didn't expect that, but now I'm really happy! They'll be awesome together.
I'm glad that Mao noticed Daiki's true feelings. I don't support them but she needed to know...
By the way, I want to see Daiki and Hiro's friend from work. They both confessed to people they like and now they have broken hearts. :3 What do you think?

Daiki is the MVP of this manga. I'm really starting to feel sorry for him.

I feel bad for the kid. He's obviously not going to end up with her. Well, at lease he has his cousin as a rebound.

Indeed. He knows he's losing ground, but he needs to get it out for the sake of closure. It'd feel horrible to go on, always thinking "what if I had just told her...".

I'm rooting for the cousin too, but I don't want it to be like he's only going to her because "his first choice was already taken". I don't want it to be a consolation prize. It needs to be developed.

Ahh.... I feel so happy now, the happiest I've felt in a long, long time when reading a manga. I almost forgot what it was like to feel this way, but yeah... I'm going to sleep with the warmest smile on my face after I type out these few sentences.
In this chapter, Oda's embarrassed silence at the mall spoke louder than words. It wasn't simply confessing to Chihiro that had him on edge. Inside his mind was a whirlwind of different emotions and realizations - his romantic feelings for Chi-chan, that he was finally moving on from Mao, that he had to let go of Daiki's taunt about Mao at the mall (Daiki's amazing for realizing this would actually help Oda by solidifying his feelings), wondering how Chihiro felt about him, wrestling with the guilt he's had over hurting her, and wondering whether it was even right for him in the first place to confess after everything he'd done. I thought those manga panels did a wonderful job at conveying there was so much going on underneath the surface of Oda, while the context of the panels skillfully gave form to those hidden sensibilities. 
Oda's resolve also happened right after Chihiro's heartfelt conversation with Daiki about being straightforward with one's feelings, and Oda having witnessed some of it honestly gave rise to such a fitting and perfect confession scene. And seeing Chihiro struggle for so many chapters about her unrequited love for it to be finally reciprocated here (especially after a period of long-wrought character growth) was amazing to experience; the artwork displayed her joy so well. As for Oda, although his feelings underwent changes more subtly and behind the scenes, his confession here didn't feel abrupt, but real and from the heart. 
Huh, I can't believe I'm saying this, but like the person above me said, congratulations Chi-chan and Oda-kun - you two deserve so much happiness! Somehow it just feels right to congratulate them.

And Daiki..... try your best. No matter the outcome, you'll be okay in the end.

Seeing Chii finally find the happiness she's been fighting for is so emotionally validating, man. It hurts knowing Daiki's not going to be as fortunate.
