Volume 6 - Page 6

There has been multiple hints through out the manga that Aoki is having conflict feelings about Rin the way she acts like a woman to him and he is not sure how to express it. Sorry but it's entirely pointless to bring that up, it's the same sort of thing he said about her in the first chapter when he was knocked unconsious from saving Rin falling off the tree that he stated" she looked like a cat with large bells hanging from her hair" while he envisioned her naked.

How is it "pointless" to bring that up?

And is there any reason in particular you're so rude?

I'm not trying to be rude, i'm just saying that the question you brought up isn't really new to us because it's been shown many times and he always had thoughts about what it would have been like if he wasn't an adult. It's very obvious he's struggling with his mixed feelings for Rin he just doesn't know what is right to be thinking.

See, the thing is, I don't necessarily see that. While there have been plenty of dubious scenes, many of them are almost always initiated by Rin. The reason why I didn't like this edit was that that reaction of Aoki's was a pretty... non-paternal observation. The new revised one could more easily be thought of in the sense of him trying to merely take care of her like a paternal figure, which is the "conclusion" that he came to earlier in the series (that the nature of his feelings towards Kokonoe was like a father).

Whether or not Aoki's right, I thought his thing about the tongue taste was one of the largest direct evidences that his thoughts weren't completely "pure." So seeing that go disappointed me. I'm well aware that there are other points in the series where the ambiguity pops up, but like I said, that - in my opinion - was probably one of the biggest.

that's entirely fine if you see it that way. That part wasn't much maybe K.W. just added it just to get others appealed into it, maybe.

Completely seperate from any discussion here, i had reached much the same conclusion. Good to see K.W. expanding the chapters so that even the most clueless fan will understand that Aoki does have some romantic feelings for Rin.
