There are rom-com manga chapters that move the story forward, and then there are chapters like So You Weren’t Into Me?! Chapter 30, where one tiny birthday present somehow turns into a potential overnight beach trip. That is exactly why I’ve become so fond of Wakame Konbu’s So You Weren’t Into Me?! (私のこと好きじゃなかったのかよ!?). It understands…
If there is one thing Wakame Konbu knows how to do incredibly well, it is taking a situation that looks completely ordinary and turning it into absolute comedy chaos. That is exactly what happened in So You Weren’t Into Me?! Chapter 29, which unexpectedly moved away from the usual school-romance atmosphere and put the spotlight…
