IDCC ch.51 part 7 - Lovebirds

      Remember when Inoue said she's respectfully step back? Well, guess she LIED, lol

Comments

I do Not like arashi 😫 STOPPP getting in the wayyy

Callie

People are calling her that?!?!

Rishi

You know, I’m starting to notice that while people (mainly Arashi) are always focused on Nao, Nao is always focused on Souta. He’s always looking at Souta most of the time and it’s so cute

Hermione

I have very mixed feelings right now!!

Mikey

Aw, man. That stinkface Arashi was giving made me like her a little less. Bummer. But Inoue is ramping up in personality lately 😂 Also, I realized Nao is often just watching things take place around him, and I'm wondering if there's a reason he can't speak up or he chooses not to. He always looks so conflicted.

MrMonochromatic

I think she would be more than happy to step back if it was souta because she knows how good he has been for nao. Like, he may not even be with us if weren't for him and she can probably see that. Lol but this girl?? She seems sweet, but not sweet enough according to inoue xD

Laura YUC

oh my god after the amusement park, all we’ll have left to cross off the list are karaoke and half a confession- (since rival and sleepover are checked off already)

INOUE MY QUEEN

Ragpie

Inoue, never change 😂💓

Elisse

well, no. its bcuz last chapter arashi left souta out and flat out ignored him, didnt even greet him or act like he was there and tbh that behavior is reasonable to hate on😭🙏

jen

Well said!

Sandy Shar

Yep. Even same pfp :D

ultimate lurker aka Pika

Right! You can be a good person and do bad/rude things, and vice versa. I can't say Arashi is a bad person, but I can say her actions have been unkind and dismissive. She interrupted Souta and Nao's not a date-date outing cause of her crush. Just cause she had a reason doesn't mean her actions weren't rude. She's dismissed Souta in favor of paying attention to her crush. Sure teens may do that. That doesn't mean it's not rude. Impact vs intention is a thing. She's intending to get close to Nao. She's negatively impacting Souta and subsequently, Nao.

DearNeptune!

Finally! My hopes for A Midnight Summer's Dream have come true!

DearNeptune!

I'd like to say that I'll be sure to say kind things at your funeral. But I fear I'll be in the grave plot next to you, also deceased.

DearNeptune!

Let me just say the biggest and really most important reason to not like Arashi is the fact that she was rude to person she supposedly likes best friend, and then also only bothered to interact with him because she needed something. I’m not saying that she needs to feel the need to get close to Souta but I do think that the way she’s so far treated him isn’t really justified. I do however hope that they all just become a big group of friends and move past this because I don’t dislike her as a character I just don’t like the way she’s treating Nao’s friends as of right now.

deathitselfiskindaawesome

Inoue, I love you so much my girl!!!!!

Kæy

What's our girl Inoue up to 👀?

ghibligirlie90

Yeah come!! You’ll meet us all there 🙌

Iona

She just likes Iseya too right?

Sydney edwards

I’m always happy for an update, it’s the post reading feels that may have me feeling different 😅😂 I’m not on the discord, I’ve been meaning to login because I forgot my signin 🫣. So I’ll do that and be glad to chat with you. Same user name?

Hector G.

And this doesn’t mean I think she’s evil and what not. Because I don’t. I just simply don’t vibe with her character

Hector G.

Can’t speak for those who don’t like Arashi. This is just my opinion and view. Arashi having a crush is not my problem with her. Her role with the main plot does not bother me in the slightest. I’ve personally stated it’s just the way she acted that specific day. For me the way she acted that day spoke volumes to me. Now folks can disagree with me and that’s fine. We’re all entitled to our own views. Now for this update, this is one of those lessons, don’t do to others what you wouldn’t want done to you. So yeah, rude is rude, but I find today’s situation comical because she did the same not too long ago.

Hector G.

Thank you!!! Poor girl is just a teenager doing her best with lots to learn 😭 and she didn't even do anything that bad, she probably just thought Souta was being the most supportive person ever

Jun ClawsRW

My girl! 🥹

Danielle Taylor

1. Omg yes I'm excited to see how it plays out. Been long since I was so happy with an update. 2. Bro are you perhaps on the IDCC Band or Discord? I love your comments so much I'm sure it would be fun discussing the webtoon with you :D

ultimate lurker aka Pika

WE LOVE U INOUE

iluvbears

Idk why people hate on Arashi that much. She is just a teenager with a crush and tbh the one who can’t read social clues is Nao. I mean seriously it’s so damn obvious that she likes him. People were so fast to call out Arashi for being rude and inviting herself but when other characters do that it’s fine…😅 I really like the story so far ❤️ I’m really excited for the next chapter 🥹

Myri

What social queues has she failed to pick up on?

Hannah S

What about Takeo 😂

Myri

We love inoue 🩷

Elisa🩷💜💙

SHES THE ONLY REDEEMING CHARACTER IN THIS COMIC RN 💀💀

#FreeSoutaFromArashi

INOUE MY QUEEN

#FreeSoutaFromArashi

personally I don't like her cause she's not picking up on social queues at all, not because she's a teenage girl with a crush. I've been that delusional teen myself with crushes, and know how easy it is to get wrapped up in that delusion but teens still aren't excused from picking up social queues or reading the room (in whichever shape or form, I'm autistic so I prefer to straight up ask if I don't know people enough to feel confident I'd read the room correctly, lol). I just think she still isn't considerate of or even sparing a second thought to the people around her, and if she were a boy as a love-rival I would have the same issues and qualms with her as a character too. which is kinda sad, cause I really liked her in the beginning - I do however have high hopes that they'll all be friends after she also realizes (and souta stops self deprecating, and does something about his own crush)!!! I do however agree with how weird it is to call her a slut just for having a crush, like come on, most of us have been in the same delulu, rosetinted, tunnelvisioned state at some point or another???

Beanie

Fr hahahahaha

PikasGirlfriend (•bruh•)

Right ? She knows

sebastien M

Inoue lied HARD. very sneakily supportive. I think she suspects something… 🤔🫢🤫

Mac

Y’all if Naota wear the same clothes as in the Cold Hands panel in the next chapter I will pass away🫶🏻

PikasGirlfriend (•bruh•)

No because people actually like Inoue. Hope this helps!

PikasGirlfriend (•bruh•)

Same expectation 😂

_Faust_

Omg I LOVE Inoue!

Mildred Locke

I feel like nao's been holding that expression for the past 3 chapters xD

MiloticTube

You know I learned some lessons in life as a child when things were done right back to me 😅so this brought back memories with my cousins But I wonder how far Inoue is going to go with the roadblocks 🤔

Hector G.

This is gonna be so messy I love it HAHAHA

PikasGirlfriend (•bruh•)

INOUE MY QUEEN‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

PikasGirlfriend (•bruh•)

arashi will try to ride with nao to get close to him, inoue will try to ride with arashi to get her away from nao, nao will try to ride with souta to make him happy (and cause he likes him), souta with try to ride with keisuke to give nao and arashi some space *insert frantically theorizing meme*

Gianna

It is. There are characters who just make us happy when we see them suffering 😌

Mari

The karma, the justice, the pettiness, the silent acknowledgement of feelings. 🙂‍↕️ This is inner peace.

DearNeptune!

Hector, you've read my mind and put the thoughts to print! I'm so looking forward to Inoue being the greatest roadblock in Arashi's plans.

DearNeptune!

Inoue my girl coming in clutch

BK

Oooh boy its about to get SPICY!

Sora

AMUSEMENT PARK EPISODE???!!! We have all been on the hunt for the “karaoke” and “half confession” clues and primed for her to ask about the concert that none of us saw an amusement park date coming !

Hatterandahare

It is ALL I WANT TO TALK ABOUT

Olitri

Damn keisuke got voluntold to come

Monty Mon

THISSSSS people are SO nasty for WHAT??!!! shes not a slut for having a crush on her friend, i actually cant believe ive seen people call her that. so horrible for no real reason

aumiilo

I know we are all rooting against Arashi because the comic is literally about Nao and Souta getting together but I can't really hate her the way others seem to. She hasn't done anything wrong and from her perspective might even think that Souta is acting as Nao's wingman by giving her the tickets and everything. It is pretty reasonable for a teenage girl having gone up to her crush's friend and asking for gift ideas to get those tickets and think "Is this something sort of secret setup because my crush actually likes me? And now his friend (who would presumably know if my crush liked me) is trying to help us get together?" She's not a bad person for not knowing the truth of the situation but people are acting like she knowingly schemed to take the tickets from Souta and is accordingly being punished. I guess I don't quite understand the vitriol towards her for something she hasn't done yet.

Hannah S

I understand what you are saying but that plan had not been settled yet. Rude is rude, yes. But the situations and circumstances are very different. One outing was already occurring, while the other was being brainstormed.

Hector G.

That's an ally 😌💅🏻

ableaelle

Nooo, let our tormented boy rest on the weekend 😭 he's seen enough of their interactions in school.

Maki na łące

Inoue best girl 💕✨

Goshdarnit

No I’m actually ecstatic that she got her own shit handed to her 🍏

Icantbeliveit

TASTE OF HER OWN MEDICINE HEHE

Icantbeliveit

i love inoue so much 😭😭😭😭 i’m curious as to whether she’s picking up on souta’s feelings, or whether she’s preventing arashi’s plans for a date just to be petty LOL

vivi

Oh she was mad, mad. I'm really looking forward to more of Inoue 🤭 Our boy Nao has not been able to look away

Zarrytan

That facial expression she made has me thinking many things as well … but I’m excited to see what plays out. And same, Nao has been keeping a lot of focus on Souta so I want to see what he’s thinking

Hector G.

Lmao I love Inoue

Silencio

can we talk about how though nao and sauto haven’t been interacting much, nao is constantly looking for souta and his reactions to things?!!

Alexa Hulson

I think exactly the same!!

Mari

And I’m sure all the people who called Arashi rude for inserting herself into Nao and Souta’s time together will be equally upset at Inoue for inviting herself and everyone else to the amusement park😇😇😇

Aslan Albert

I shall manifest with you King from the Owl House! What are you doing here?!

Madeleine

For real

Madeleine

Come on Nao!!! Ask Souta!!! You… him… amusement park… maybe you’ll both happen to be alone… you could confess!!! Maybe you’ll kiss maybe you won’t… but what matters is you’ll be together and Arashi will be stuck on a ferris wheel or something. It’s a win win loose!!! Inoue… thank you for helping me manifest this! 👏😭

Madeleine

I honestly feel Inoue will be raining on Arashi’s parade the whole day. Maybe at the park she’ll make sure Arashi and Nao don’t get any alone time, and maybe pair up the boys together 😅 We just got the update and I’m dying to get the next already haha

Hector G.

OMG Inoue for the win! I love how she did to Arashi, what Arashi did to Souta: hijacking an outing she wanted to have with Nao 🤭 It feels like retribution for Souta's sake. Also, we finally get a more concrete idea of Arashi 's intentions towards Nao based on her reaction to Inoue making this a group activity. I'm very interested to see how Nao, who seems to be very focused on Souta, interprets Souta's mood/expression since he looks so dejected.

Zarrytan

Please 🙏🏻🙏🏻

erika

Inoue, we’ve had our ups and downs, but every day you prove how great you are🙂‍↕️

FeyFlower004

Also, Aina, Inoue gets more gorgeous every time you draw her 😍

Mari

inoue is such a bad bitch i love her LMFAOOO

kal

So many different emotions in this part! I’m very interested to see the next parts! Such an emotional roller coaster!

TAngel

manifesting nao and souta first kiss on a ferris wheel

Ryan Brooks

INOUE, I love you so much💖

Sweetish

I'm so looking forward to seeing Arashi being humiliated by queen Inoue 😌

Mari

I love this 😂😂😂 not fun when others take over your (planned) outing, huh? 😆😆 I’ll be eating up the following updates to see how it unfolds 😄😂

Hector G.

Girl get up (I love you Inoue)

GothSloth

Yesss Inoue!!! Nao noticing something's wrong with Souta is also good!

Tink

THAT'S OUR GIRL!!!!! 🥹

MsNutLover

THE AMUSEMENT PARK

Joe Perry

Exactly!

Alice Wilson

I think we can trust her to send Arashi far, far away, Sandy! She's our hope now!!!

Mari

I think it will be leading that scene and the almost-confession we got teased about

RAE

Inoue has always been nothing but a sweetheart 💚 If I hadn't chosen Yuu already on the game, I'd definitely choose her 🥰

Mari

I wish that Inoue just know and want to stop Arashi to stole Nao from Souta. 🥰

procra

bbygirl knows what’s up

Alma Rodriguez

I KNEW SHE WOULD SAVE US ALL 😭😭😭😭😭 I love her so fucking much rn

Iona

Slayyyy inoue!! She has really come around

eemmao

Glad she lied haha

AmiWarai

If I hadn’t read the authors note I was abt to comment abt inoue being a wingwoman 🤡

Bryn E

Ok, this young lady is definitely not us in the game. >:|

R BRojas

Inoue is queen!!!! Our savior!

Sandy Shar

low key wanna date keisuke😅

Anacota

Just noticed how Inoue and Souta are in the exact same situation (as in, Arashi being their rival) but acting completely differently... Inoue's fighting (I guess?) and not stepping back while Souta has completely given up (for now).

Carola

Etiquette 101. So rude to take away the person's right to politely decline you so neither side ends up embarrassed.

R BRojas

My heart hurts so bad right now ughhhh😭💔

Dylan

In the QNA there was a bunch of random romantic plot-points in random order Aina put out, ‘Amusement Park’ was one of them

Lily

nao noticing souta’s face….ahhhh 😥

churrry

I looked at the qna and it seems to be one of the key words for the romance plotline?

Carleigh

Thanks Inoue ILYSM

Ari Yez

YESSSSSSSSSS INOUE!!!!! (please make Souta and Nao sit together 🔮🧚🏻‍♀️) 🧑🏻‍🦱🧑🏻‍🦰 🪑🪑🎢

Sophia zielinsky

Oh my God I didn't even think of that while reading it! That makes is SO much better!!

Caleb

she does it for her own gain and to protect souta she is just not a selfish girl i know it from the bottom of my heart

drunk kitten

INOUE I LOVE YOU, SHE DEF SHIPS SOUTA AND NAO AND I LOVE THAT EVEN THOUGH SHE HAD A CRUSH ON NAO SHES HELP SAOUTA (hopefully)

Artemis mckee

I’m cackling I love Inoue

NeonOstrich

Perhaps intentionally?

Caleb

I literally hate when people ask me if I’m free on a day before telling me what it is 🙃 Tell me what it is first and then I’ll tell you if I’m free

Alice Wilson

ALSO AMUSEMENT PARK!!?

L. Miller

well, that’s what happens when you ask someone in a full class haha

Anacota

I’m screaming like my favorite football team has won. Things are not perfect but I’m seeing it as a win

emms

Poor Souta, volunteered into being the fifth wheel position. Been there, felt that. But at least his guy is starting to take notice of the toll this is all evidently causing him. ❤️

Poppy Jasper

At this point Nao has to notice that something is seriously wrong with Souta bc normally he'd be all hyped up with excitement too but he looks so grim at the idea of following them to an amusement park.

TaySteeg

No but Inoue made me cackle a little. Baby girl is a little savage. Lol.

Cara Thereon

AH WAIT DO YOU MIND TELLING ME WHAT IT WAS REFERRING TO

Tired And bored

Also, Inoue is starting to see what's going on, isn't she? I mean, she may also be doing it cause she's jealous (which, Souta, please stop being stupid giving others your tickets and learn from this mastermind), but I really wanna believe she's starting to see it!

Mari

inoue my love you dropped this 👑

rae of sunshine

AAHHHHHHHHHHH 🎉🎉 Ok ok I have 3 things First, GO INOUE WE LOVE YOU!!! Second, am I the only one who thinks Inoue and Takeo would be really cute together?? Like Inoue’s playfully personality paired with Takeo’s chaotic one would be so cute!! Finally I hope this ends with us getting the rest of that scene that we got a spoiler for a few weeks back, you know the one where they’re holding hands!!!

L. Miller

LETS FUCKING GOO INOUE YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MY FAVORITE CHILD 🐐🐐

drunk kitten

Inoue you’re the best!

Nat

DID YOU SEE ARASHI'S DISAPPOINTED FACE? LMFAO INOUE CRASHED THEIR "DATE" JUST LIKE ARASHI DID WITH NAO AND SOUTA!!!! LMFAO Only Inoue could save this update, after Keisuke disappointed me ✅️

Iona

As much as I don’t want to hate on Arashi I’m kind of glad she’s getting a taste of her own medicine 😅 and look how it’s making her feel, maybe now she’ll realize she was rude to Souta by inserting herself into their hangout

Maddy ♡

::sigh:: I came here too fast. The wait begins again...

Junai04

it’s about to go down in the amusement park! yes! secrets will be spilled I feel it!!
