    Either kiss the boy or sweep the leg so he can’t run.
    Then kiss the boy.

      Naw, he’s larger than her and she might hurt herself with that one. Go for the arm and use his weight to roll him over her back for a solid ground toss. Then she can pin him.

    The feels! This is just how I was in high school. They were all out of league and I was so afraid to be seen as stupid by stammering while trying to talk to a pretty girl, and I would never be good enough…

    Yeah, Hiroshi, I get it. But guess what? You’re wrong. She wants you as much, or maybe more, than you want her. I think that’s why her glasses went clear — she _*wants*_ him to see her.

        never trust the cute girl if you are a nerd.
        they are either making fun of you. or the competition will fight you. I got tired of fighting people real fast.

    I am guessing that she has some control of her glasses glamour. Poor guy, he has been put down by his mom so much that he thinks he is not good enough when he sees her actual physical self.

      I doubt it’s intentional, but rather her natural magic is burning through the obfuscating glamour.

    The glasses turn off, and Hiroshi’s brain melted

      he’s said it himself. he’s an airhead. So not much to melt. Although I do think he is being way too hard on himself. He pegged right on the money everything great about her. So, while his brain isn’t the best when he sees with his heart, he’s a freaking genius.

    I gotta say that closeup blew me away. It appears that Hiroshi may be able to see Mindy for the ‘Hot Rocket-Scientist Nerd Girl’ that she is and she the same for him.

      I agree.
      Back when he started Wapsi Square things were a bit primitive.
      Later people said he should work on drawing hands…and he did, to great effect.
      Now Mindy’s portrait shows a like improvement.
      I hope he never stops upping his game.

    He “sees” her as she really is. And not just the “hot chic.” But everything that makes her awesome. He’s just so put down by everyone in his family. He’s 100% sure she is out of his league. The ironic part is she see him as out of her league. And also sees herself as unworthy of this awesome guy. (Hiroshi.) So, if that can get over themselves. (I have no chance and am unworthy, so why try.) They would be just what each other need. Someone who truly cares and believes in them.

    In that 2nd panel where she says. “Just?” If I were him, I’d think. “Just take my heart, soul, life or anything else you might want, from me because looking at you right now I am 100% yours now and forever.”

      In the last panel Hiroshi in his head is like an OG episode of lost in space. “Danger Will Robinson! Danger! ” Ho. the pain! the PAIN!” “Abort! Will Robinson! Abort!”

        Their relationship at this instant can be summed up by “So near, and yet so far.”

(Flowers for no reason, fave takeout food, candy or other female other half approved action. IE; best behavior. So, mostly because of me not that often. but it dose happen.

    There you see him
    Standing there in the hall
    He’s the one that gots the balls
    but he protests too much
    And you know that’s why
    that you give him kawaii
    You wanna kiss the boy

    apologies to Sebastian

    His actual love for her broke the glamor spell of the glasses effect on himself. His admission sidesteps the effect and in sharing those real feeling was able to see the real her.
