Interesting to see one of their first “fights”! And how they tackle it with good communication. It can be difficult to discuss displeasure and I think the focus on working it out is really healthy. A shift to a new relationship and the new experiences of living together can shake up what you thought were typical expectations, since you suddenly have to take into account the preferences and habits of another person!

Relationship growing pains! Really cute and I liked seeing the characters work through the newest wrinkle in their relationship. Felt like natural progression. I do think that Hijiri is kinda the flawless/uncomplicated one in the couple. 

The Towel Incident is both understandable how a little thing builds up alongside bigger, 'actual' problems, and then is the minor inconvenience that blows everything out of proportion, but also...Koyori has a continuing flaw of not communicating, and though each volume always ties up its conflict, the communication issue is one that keeps coming up. Even though she makes up her mind to do better, it's the fallback choice for plot drama. Realistic, maybe, but getting a bit tired here. But Hijiri hasn't really had a flaw since...Volume 2? Whenever it was that they went on their spa trip. I'd like to see him have some more depth too.

All that said, it's still a fun, enjoyable series. It's cute, the intimate scenes are drawn well, and I like the side characters.

Boy, that's one of my favorite angst out there! Now their relationship feels a lot more human to me. It reminds me a specific episode(s) in Itakiss Season 2, yea, that was angsty too—the married couple fight, in this case though, the first fight our couple had in the entirety of their official romantic relationship. That was such good stuff, lol. I enjoyed it a lot. At least we had diverted from Jungkook seven days a week scene. Not that sex was out of the picture though, the bunnies did it all night the soon they made up!
