I can understand how jacob and the others would feel that Honoka ending up spoiler[expressing feelings for a ] guy is a slap in the face. but I appreciate that the character is spoiler[Bi] Considering that all the attention and characters that the spoiler[L & G communities get] I don't think it is unreasonable to ask for us to a spoiler[Bi anime character ] outside of George KOIZUMI who was almost 10 years ago at this point. and yet we have quite a few cast of them every year in anime for the other two (maybe not always good ones but still) so it is so bad to have one in a different camp?


If the show explicitly addressed her as bisexual yes, that would be fine, but this is yet another case of tragic lesbian cured by the magic of finding "the right guy". It's the staple of faux lesbian representation in Japanese media in which girl-girl relationships are presented as just a "phase" that the girls will grow out of eventually to transition into heterosexual relationships
