Someone commented that the particular chapter where he mentioned the age was from korean raws. Korean age system is different, i.e. You're already 1 year old the day you were born and you add +1 every new year. But still basically uke is probably 18-19. No problem with that. People are just pretending to be woke.
Preach
Yep! Korean culture is like that. Many ppl here don't get what p*dophilia means and this manga definitely is not it. I'm a sucker for age gaps (legal, consensual, relationship age gap) and semes respecting their ukes and controlling their urges to avoid any complications. Uke's 20 now tho, i believe. And he graduated and now they can have lots of sexy times!
I'm just wheezing at the comments about their age like, ITS GODDAMN NORMAL TO BE A FEW YEARS OLDER THAN THE USUAL AGE IN HIGH SCHOOL LIKE, PLEASE ANALYZE THE DETAILS, ESPECIALLY RYOU'S FAMILY STATUS. It would be understandable if he had to take off a year or two from school to take care of their family because they don't have a dad present and their mom's usually busy but not neglecting tho. I've said this before in my previous comment about their age gap. Ryou was already in his third year when they met. So he was around 19 or so. Then a year later he graduated, which would make him 20. And Seijuro 33 (if he already had his bday, if not then still 32)
Why y'all so surprised about Ryou's age??? I see nothing wrong with it??? This is by far the most gentle yaoi manga I've read, and I'm saying that for all my four years or being in this site. (Eigyo Nika is also so damn sweet and fluffy and if you haven't read it yet then please do!)
THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. AND TO ALL PPL SAYING ITS P*DOPHILIA OR GR**MING THEN GET THE F*CK OUT OF HERE YOURE ALOLICON PIECE OF SH*T I BET. GO IMPALE YOURSELF ON THE TOP OF EMPIRE STATE BUILDING
