Do you pity the main character?

The manga started decent enough but with the most recent chapter took a real nose dive at least for me. It's kind of sad how something a little bit awkward but funny can turn into something I lose any kind of interest in.


First we have the main character. He is a bit indecisive and a push over. But for once I actually don't want to outright strangle him (as of yet) instead I actually feel sorry for him. The main character is a hikkikomori (?) who managed to come to school regardless by wearing a costume and at least tries to live on even while being bullied.


Then we have the teacher. A fairly egoistic, pushy and at times mean character who seems to be intent of getting what she wants. She outright bullies the main character into a relationship at first and tries to seperate him from the girl he likes. She however seemed to genuinely care about him and to be honest about her feelings.
Now with the last chapter all of this was put to lie. At first it seemed as if she would shoot down the wannabe blackmailer right away as she had him backing down in an instant. She then however for no apparent reason decided to take his best friend into her mouth and suck him off before stopping by being "appaled by his stench".
So if he had reeked any better to her she wouldn't have had any kind of problem with it? She would've continued and maybe went even further? Just remember that at least at this point she's his self proclaimed girlfriend. It gives a good idea about what he would have to expect from her in the future.


Then we have the class rep (?) who seems to at least care about the main character, even if only because she "was a nice person". She only got active in pursuing him after she saw that the main character had lost quite some weight and came to know that another woman also wanted him.
All of this makes her rather shallow, as the teacher pointed out it seems more like she doesn't want to lose to her then that she really cares about the main character. But there's actually more to it then we knew at first. In the last chapter we came to know that she was rejected by the very guy bullying the main character a year earlier (about the same time the MC started to hide in his suit?).
This in hindsight makes a lot of her actions just seem as if she was trying to get back at the bully for rejecting her. The bully is out to get the main character, the girl he rejected helps him. So from the very beginning she might not have actually cared for him at all.


Which leaves us with the bully whom's name I forgot. So far he rejected the girl the main character has a crush on, he constantly bullies the main character and now he got sucked off by his current "girlfriend" long before the main character even went anywhere close to do anything like that and apparently he's going to get away with all of it.

All in all I pity the main character. The girls in questions are horrible, his bully seems to get far ahead of him with his own "girlfriend" and we only have a few chapters left with the bully seemingly escaping any kind of punishment for his actions. What do you guys think about all of this?

He didn't get his blowjob for one, she said he stinks and left before she did anything (as you said). Even if she did blow the kid, do you think that's the 1st blowjob she has given? Ya, I doubt it. You can pity this kid as much as you like, but in the end he gets both girls (at the same time to boot). You would have to be living a pretty amazing life to have a lot of pity for this guy.

So my answer to the title is; No. I don't pity the guy who gets a hot sensei who has a smelling fetish, and a class rep who likes to be watched.

She did take it into her mouth and then decided he stinks. As for "was it the first blow job she's given?" doesn't really matter since back then she wasn't his girlfriend. That whole argument is a bit like saying it's okay to sleep around even when in a relationship because you had sex prior to said relationship. The difference should be obvious.

As for getting both girls. The second girls fetish should actually keep them from ever really getting anywhere. So no he didn't get both of them. ;)

Alright lets play this game.
She was going to do this because she was being blackmailed, not because she wanted to.
He has the class rep in his closet going to town and he is doing it just for shits and giggles.
Now who is coming off worst in this?

The way I read it she didn't even suck him off, she went too but couldn't cos she just couldn't stand his smell, even if she did go down on him she stopped almost instantly.

She may even have planned that from the start, knowing she couldn't stand his smell, and what type of person he is she may have planned to get his hopes up and then utter crush/embarrass him thus ensuring his silence (don't forget she's clearly an excellent manipulator)

"for no apparent reason".......he was blackmailing her. If she didn't shut him up then she couldn't be with "the one she loves the most"

Everyone got what they wanted in the end. Murashita gets her ntr, Kusabana properly falls in love with Ayane and they get to be together....why should we feel sorry for him?

This.

Ayame gamed him from the moment he tried to insinuate his plans, and took him to task.

OP forgets that she can read people like a book, and thus she knew instantly what he was after and how to crush him. All she had to do was play him like a fiddle, buid up the anticipation, and, right before the delivery of the "expected payoff," brutally crush his ego and spirit so he couldn't turn on her or even talk about it -- note how he's making his buddy smell him later to insure to himself that he doesn't stink. She knew exactly what she was doing and while some would have an issue about the method, it was not only correct, but very effective.
