Honestly, that was a pretty cheesy and underwhelming ending. It's a shame...

I was hoping for more in this series.

It honestly feels like the series got axed given that abrupt ending. Damn, I wish it could've gone on a little longer.

The magazine it was in ended and the publisher started a new one. There's no real reason why it stopped at 16 chapters but it could very well be that it wasn't chosen to continue publication in the new magazine.

Wait, is that it? Is that how is going to end?
Title says end and first page says final chapter.
Does this mean this story got axed? Because this is way too inconclusive.

I guess people dont want a taste of reality and this was a bit depressing.
But it can had been developed better with a better vision.
Amd at least conclude with something concrete and not leave it ambiguos.
Like the heroine confesing to her crush at least instead of leaving it in the air.
And Izumi ended becoming an official announcer.
Make an epilogue about time skip him as a pro commentor.
That way we could had something.
It is a shame.

Disappointed. I really liked this at the start but with the love triangle and the mc (not even sure to call him that since he's mostly an observer) deciding to help her out, it started gong towards an ending I didn't really like. Sure you could say it's realistic but the chain events was too quick... They could've shown a lot more than this...

I liked Shinohara a lot until she realized that she liked Kan. I would've liked Izumi to make a decisive move but he stayed the way he was from the start. So I wanted her to realize his feelings later on (I really thought it would happen when they were in the pool) but instead...

Goddamn, this was actually pretty good. Shame about the non-ending though.

Well, that was a disappointment, a promising beginning, but somewhere in the middle, some crack caused leaked out these promising beginning, and at the end we are left only with an empty shell. It's a pity of the wasted potential we got at the beginning.

Dead ending. I feel left out. What is this hole in my heart. Urgh the pain is hurting, DEAAAAAADDD.

But tbf all the author did the whole series was to keep izumi saying that he is an observer, but really I don't expect that kind of dead ending. Even shino is as stupid as she was.

I was pretty disappointed at the ending. I can't say I wasn't surprised though.

Dang, this was perfect except for the abrupt ending. With more development MC "may" have left the friend zone. At least show him announcing in the 2020 Olympics or something...

Also holy crap am I looking forward to the next manga by the illustrator. Shinohara has one of the best character design's, def best girl
