I mean, I feel like I've said this before but - you try hugging someone from behind like that and not calling it a "hug".

That's right, you can't. Dat a hug.

Case in point:

Alpha is totally hugging that snowman

And so Tomo never left her room again. Jun could only pine away for her.

So the hiatus are basically there so the author can figure out where to take this? And doesn't really pick a good direction.

Fanservice aside Akemi has been the MVP of this post-hiatus arc so far.

I hope she saves the day from these poor, poor fools' idiocy.

It's not hard to be the highlight of the arc when every other major player* is in an emotional funk.

*Carol and Misuzu are off playing their own game, so they don't count.

Like I have no one to blame but myself, this manga has always been pretty lovely about gender roles since literally the first chapter so this is not a surprise at all for the author, but somehow coming back to it now after such a long break it feels unbearable.

For me, the return of Tomo has been somewhat overshadowed by that new series with a dumb muscleheaded couple who actually manage to progress their relationship.

Huh I don’t think there’s been any progress in Spy x Family yet, but it’s very early on

Apples and oranges, sometimes you gotta go for the slow burn with cute fluff and funny antics, sometimes you just gotta read Romcom: Speedrun edition. Both can coexist!

It's odd that this series has managed to get a grip on us despite a ton of glaring flaws where we mostly just grit our teeth and move on because there are tons of genuinely funny and heartwarming moments and the art is excellent.

But sometimes it really does test one's patience...
