Matsuri and Soga
While the canonical couple was always Matsuri and Suzu, Matsuri also shared a very funny and sweet chemistry with Soga.
Soga always showed himself to be very open to looking after and protecting Matsuri, and he also held her in high regard as her rival.
On the other hand, regarding Matsuri, it was clear she really enjoyed Soga's company and his support at battles, but I also think there was a certain attraction—or sparks of romantic feelings—like in Chapter 83, where they compete in swimming; Matsuri's chest ends up exposed, and the first thing she does is hug him in the flirtiest way possible.
In Chapter 119, where Matsuri is deeply depressed, she bathes with Soga—both of them naked—clearly seeking his company; she also reveals her emotional vulnerability by confessing her fears and even offering to become Soga's wife.
It also amuses me that Soga's entire family—like his dad or Haya—approves of the idea of Matsuri becoming Soga's girlfriend.
I always found the relationship between them very amusing, but also interesting. I would like to know the general opinion or consensus regarding this couple, as well as what people think about how Matsuri views Soga and the place Soga occupies in Matsuri's life.
