I felt the same about Gabe! I started hating the character just because of the way he was talked about. Idk the term in english to when you get abuse of someone.
I also felt like it was too short to develop their relationship. And I honestly don't think Sloane was ready to be in a relationship, I was frustrated at him bc he was being an asshole to Dex simply because he wasn't willing to move on. Like, get therapy dude. Don't rope someone else into your shit if you're not in a good place for a relationship. Dex tried to keep his distance and you went after him, so treat him nice.
Don't get me wrong for 28 chapters only covering the beginning of 11 volumes this manga was phenomenal! There was so much to explore from racism and prejudice to trauma and moving on. However, I feel that this story would have had so much more impact if it were longer.
I was so tired of hearing Gabe's names mentioned every five minutes, it was difficult to see any growth in Dex and Sloane's relationship. I know there is so much more to their love and I wish we got more of them to really reassure the audience of their mutual love and that Sloane was ready to date again. We only saw them get together and BAM it ended. From the comments, I can see their relationship has so much more to offer and I was so sad that it wasn't included in the manga.
Also they really left us hanging on all of the side couples. I was STRESSED the whole time thinking that the straight-up asshole Ashe was going to snag the cute brother. Hopefully, Ashe gets his shit together in the novels because I was not enjoying his personality (and homophobia).
tldr; I wished the manga was longer, but it's okay since it encourages people to support the author and purchase the novels!
