Oh! This is good. The MC is very observant and can read micro expressions and body language, while the ML... well, he's something else. I won't spoil here, but this has an interesting take on a famous trope for him. The fact that the MC discovers this very quickly and has to deal with it as best she can is interesting as well. I can't wait to read what happens next.
This. I already have read this elsewhere and it's true that ML need social and behavior training, but the twist is truly brilliant what is the real reason. He is really going to need it. The series handles that so differently than what manga usually does it makes me think that author has some actual real career in psychology or that side of the health care.
FL is a bit too unrealistic about her observations, micro expressions isn't actual real science, but she does often tries to anchor her reasoning to other things too - so she isn't using that alone, what is good. And this is entertainment so it's not supposed to be that perfect IRL standards.
This is interesting! I hope it will be updated, I was absolutely not expecting that twist
knowing what i know of the ML as of chapter 4, i'm not sure if i want to continue. i don't like these types of characters at all
