There is a fine line between being "romantic" and stalking someone, but the crucial difference is whether or not the passion and attention are welcome. Outwardly, Tamako expressed displeasure at feir advances, so when Mizuki continues undeterred, fe is undoubtably a stalker (though I would also consider feir six months of ogling fem to be stalking because fe never asked for consent to ogle). Inwardly, Tamako is conflicted and is somewhat interested in fem despite being creeped out and pissed off at feir behavior. Fe also feels that overall, fe was kind and seemed like a good person. In addition to their stalker romance, the manga portrays unfulfilled potential love interests as well as developments in each of their respective work lives. I was actually enjoying the story up until they had Mizuki start waiting on benches to intercept Tamako. And the final scene where they had fem waiting out in the rain was absolutely disgusting. I'm left feeling that if stalkers read this manga, they would walk away feeling justified and encouraged to devotedly show their "kindness" and "consideration" to the objects of their interest (i.e. it would encourage them to stalk).
