Rather than focusing solely on the "immoral" acts, the series excels when it portrays the crushing weight of Kouhei's jealousy and his desperate attempts to satisfy Mako's unorthodox requests to save their bond.
Leading up to Chapter 12, Miku has been oscillating between the two poles of her life: the comfortable predictability with Kousei and the exciting, anxiety-ridden uncertainty with Yuuki. She has not cheated physically, but she has emotionally strayed. The guilt is eating at her, but so is the fear of being alone. The chapter opens not with a dramatic confrontation, but with a rainy Tuesday evening. Miku is at Kousei’s apartment. He is cooking—efficiently, silently. The sound of chopping vegetables fills the space where conversation should be. manga soredemo ashita mo kareshi ga ii chapter 12 best
