Very compelling start. Hoping they lean pretty heavily into the interpersonal and situational drama (moreso than would be indicated by the volume cover art), but a more lighthearted story of personal healing w/ a bit of spice from the murder's consequences could be great too.

Especially loved the odd, but powerful chemistry between our two leads. Atsuko also totally has community icon potential.

OMG! Suito-to is actually back!?! It's been one of my all-time favorites for years! Guess it's time for another re-read!! Thank you so much for the scanlation!!!

reminds me of kiss and a white lily kinda

Definitely!

The core of their relationship is so deeply reminiscent of Shiromine and Kurosawa's, especially in regards to the dynamic of a (love denying) hardworking smart character trying to "bring down" a natural genius character so they can be on equal ground in their relationship to the other and to those around them. The most significant difference as of now is that Komaki doesn't seem to currently be anywhere near as honest about her feelings towards Wakaba as Kurosawa was to Shiromine, which should add a bit of fun spice to it all.

Excited to see how it develops from here!
