There are exactly two possibilities:

1. He knows it's Tomo and he's using this situation to feel her out, figure out exactly how she feels.

2. He hasn't accepted that it's Tomo, he's using this situation and this stranger to try and figure out his Tomo situation. He wanted to get an outsider's thoughts, but she just confirmed what he already knew.

Which one you think is the case depends on your interpretation of events up until now.
>>
>>142802123
>i figured youd say that

Possible confession from Jun because he thinks he's safe with not-Tomo that he realizes Tomo likes him but he just wants to be friends because he's scared of ruining it due to a similar thing happening with Misuzu?
>>
>>142802068
hey who deleted my post?

>>142802713
From the Japanese it is most certainly the second one. The guy who wrote the first TL up in the thread chose a very poor choice of words for Jun's final line.
>>
>>142802713
I really subscribe to the idea that Jun likes Tomo and wants to hit that, but is deathly afraid of fucking it up and ruining their friendship, which is the thing he values the most already. That's honestly the only thing that makes sense.

That's likely the case. I say that he's also unsure if they'll go well together as a couple. Mutual liking doesn't ensure a good relationship, especially with the number of fights the two get into.

Agreed. I go as far as to say that he already knows Tomo likes him as well, but he still thinks he'll fuck it up and ruin what they've already got. inb4 "isn't it arrogant to make that decision all on your own without taking my feelings into account."

It's also that dating dynamics in Japan aren't very Tomboy friendly. Dating is very much seen as a big production. There's Valentine's dressing up for dates expected behavior all that pressure. Jun doesn't realize that he can date his best friend without "dating" his best friend. Things don't have to change between them so fast. That's probably what Tomo wants too, she just gets 0 female treatment right now but the level of female treatment shed be most happy with is probably way lower than a typical girly girl.

Him getting Misuzu is almost as sure as Senpai getting Carol, but without the pretense of an arranged marriage or childhood friendship.

Yeah, instead of having arranged marriage or being childhood friends, all Tanabe had in regards to getting Misuzu is "resemble her dad".
>>
>>142806158
I'd rather Misuzu not get with anyone but me.

>>142806158
>>142806328
Misuzu is going through a process of becoming warmer and softer. She wants to be more affectionate with the girls, and eventually she'll want to be less dismissive of everybody around her. The whole point is that that dude is the opposite of everything she is now, but by the time her arc is complete they'll be a match. She'll still be standoffish and come off as cold, be she will have let him into his heart despite all his goofiness.

>>142806374
Unfortunately this is the reason we know for sure that Jun isn't about to confess to Tomo. There's a zero percent chance. Misuzu and Carol need to both get their shit figured out first and then all of the character stories will wrap up around the same time. Tomo and Jun need to be the last to get together, and odds are that the other two couples getting together will actually play a role in inspiring Tomo and Jun to finally make it happen.

Which coupling will happen first? Carol/Senpai or Misuzu/Tanabe?
>>
>>142806969
Carol/Misuzu and Senpai/Tanabe
>>
>>142806969
Misuzu/Senpai and Carol/Tanabe
>>
I'm hoping beyond hope that the writer will resolve jun and tomo fucking soon, then moving on to the more interesting relationships that haven't been killed to death like cotton candy and that other dude, and misuzu and her latent lesbianism. But this is japan and anything that advances the plot is impossible so fuck this shit forever
>>
>>142807307
See you tomorrow
>>
>>142807307
That would make no sense in terms of the narrative. Either everybody else gets resolved first and then Tomo/Jun are last or Tomo/Jun are first then nobody else gets resolved.

>>142806969
In a hypothetical reality where I'm the author and this is what I would do:

Carol and senpai don't actually end up together. She eventually gets through to him but he thinks of her as family and can't think of her as a lover. But in the end Carol is glad she tried and got closure. This inspires Tomo to confront Jun and force him to take her seriously.

Misuzu continues to try to be more affectionate and starts to become a more well-rounded person because of it. Around the climax of the manga Jun and Tomo have finally talked and Jun basically told her that he doesn't think they should be together because they'll ruin what they've got. Tomo goes along with this but she's actually heartbroken. Jun thinks he's doing the right thing but he's more conflicted than ever. One day he's talking to Tanabe and he lets slip that he and Misuzu have been dating for a few weeks in secret. Tanabe says "Ahh, gomen, gomen, but Misuzu didn't want to tell anybody. It's a big step for her and she's still trying to get comfortable with the whole situation." This makes Jun realize that she has grown up as a person, and that he's been juvenile all along. It makes him realize that if he never allows himself to risk anything then he'll never really attain happiness. His current situation is a daily struggle, and the past the two of them had together is the past. He realizes that if he doesn't try to hold onto Tomo now then he's just going to lose her forever.

Again, this is just how I would play it out, and there's a zero percent chance this will actually happen. But this way the relationships of the other two couples are developed in a way that's fitting with their character while also being foils to the two leads. They all kinda dovetail together. That's what's important for this type of story
>>
>>142808038
Also important to note is that seeing Cotton Candy get rejected and be all depressed but resilient in the end would give me the biggest heart boner.
>>
>>142805028
So Tomo will chastise him under her disguise?

Japanese might be, but English isn't, so you need to add in at least some when you translate, and as someone further up pointed out, it works as just a general you because he's talking to someone, it's not necessarily singling her out as Tomo
>>
>>142810366
But in this case it has a very likely implication. In English having a "you" there is very likely to cause the reader to read in ambiguity which is not there in the original Japanese.
