The MC is ignoring both the reality of his crush loving another man and the fact he has witnessed several moments of her expressing her feelings for him. It also doesn't help the main older blonde girl is downbad for the main MC, and the story is trapped in a sort of ignorance is bliss bs. I am confused how it's even possible to build a manga on a sort of dry cliche like this. Seeing the MC ignore the reality of the situation with evidence unfolidng in his own eyes. Choosing to remain loyal even when he isn't even officially dating the other girl?Then add the blonde resorting to secretative yet questionable tactics to get him to choose her?
