I think that reviewer is WAAAAAAAAAY overreacting. The "forcibly kissed" scenes aren't really that. The first time Haru does it, it's in the same breathe that he's confessing to her and let's admit it, he's clearly clumsy in the whole social aspect. He plainly doesn't know this shouldn't be done and that it's not appreciated. But it charms Shizu (who DOES end up liking it), and the manga makes it clear several times that while she is charmed by his anecdotes it's not always fully appreciated and it returns again to him just not knowing it shouldn't be done.
One of my favorite scenes are when Shizu asks for space. She is sitting studying on the stairs while Shizu is below on the floor eating chips. While she is studying she hangs her hand down and he looks up and just gets the weird idea to lick her hand. She jumps up and screams at him and he's like "WHAT? WHAT?!!"
On top of it all, she's not very good socially, either. I think his sudden kisses just surprise the hell out of her and it's not like she's ever tried to push him away during these kisses.
Actually, I have more problems with Shizu's (the girl's) behaviors than Haru's. She keeps leading him on and then suddenly says "NO! MY GRADES ARE FAILING! I CAN'T BE IN LOVE AT ALL!" Which confuses the fuck out of an already seriously confused Haru. o_O; A normal guy wouldn't know how to treat her, let alone one who's extremely socially inept. I find her behavior more deplorable than his. She only calls out to him whenever she feels that she's in the right place to do so.
