So, I was rereading a few chapters and a couple thoughts struck me. First, so many arcs are way better on a reread, most notably Ice Kaguya but by no means the only one. Second, Osaragi is such an interesting character. She's not a very good person, but her grudges and issues are very interestingly nuanced and foreshadowed. I find that sort of personal issues — resenting her longtime friend, with whom she's friends mainly due to being outcasts together, for not being there for the guy she liked even though Osaragi herself wasn't either — to be non-glamorous and human in a way that you really don't see much in romcoms. Bits of conflict like that, Tsubame's complicated feelings towards Ishigami and Prez and Kaguya's mutual inferiority complexes are one of the most unique things about this series, beneath all the comedy and wackiness and mindgames.
Dopants: He meant what he said and he said what he meant, a Ninety is faithful 100%.I don't know why "side character has an inner monologue assuming main character, who is totally oblivious, is doing some insane high-level mindgames" jokes always land, but they do. The last page is the best possible punchline to the whole subplot.
Dopants: He meant what he said and he said what he meant, a Ninety is faithful 100%.On one hand she's robotic to the point of absurdity, on the other it's not like people like that don't exist, especially the bit with the self-pitying social media posts. Kei ended up as a bit of a Flat Character, though.
Dopants: He meant what he said and he said what he meant, a Ninety is faithful 100%.Welp...latest Oshi no Ko special chapter confirms its a Shared Universe with this one and it takes place several years later after the ending.
Kaguya fulfilled her dream of being a photographer and has the Shirogane surname.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.Chapter 273. Another final chapter. Part 1, at least. And it's about Nagisa learning that Maki likes her boyfriend.
I honestly don't know if Nagisa and Tsubasa really did break up. I'm inclined to think the end-of-chapter narration is a fakeout, but then it's very plausible that Nagisa would break up with Tsubasa to free him up for Maki.
Then again, I think it would be more interesting if Nagisa realizes she actually is in love with Tsubasa, and Maki finally, finally decides to move on.

The fact we're opening with that next season is certainly a trip
