The one thing that made the story unique was the framing device of the girl in between who knew they were in love honestly would've preferred if the three of them became friends(or polyamourous 3 way relationship) or the childhood friends/couple got a friend group whoch would've created more opportunities for entertaining character dynamics and interactions because after a certain point the author/artist abandons the framing device of "girl inbetweens POV" and just sort of gives you interactions of the two boys which is kind of stale and boring when you consider the fact that because of the untraditional introduction we got less attached and accustomed to the love story and the characters which leads to me in particular not caring what happens to the main couple because you know how it's going to play out Ren will be childish while looking like a thug and Tadaomi likes that so he plays into it by being perfect. So yeah real boring wish the concept had better planning and execution because it was really weird when we just cut the outsiders POV out as it felt real generic without the long typical inner monologues of BL in which we learn of characters deep feelings of love and their perspectives on the situation.
