OMFG, yes. This ^. This ^ was exactly the reaction i had after i first read this manga, i was literally happy when i found out she had cancer and then later died. Her talking shit during that scene where she and junichi meet again is what sealed the deal for me. To this day this is literally THE best yaoi manga (probably manga in general) that i have EVER read. I read this years ago. This manga is a fucking masterpiece and i'm pretty sure it only has 9.1 rating because there're some pedophile chapters (like 2 meant as comedy). I seriously can't even... nothing i could possibly say would do this manga justice. I sincerely believe that anyone who doesn't read this is missing something important in their life. I can't even put an emoticon here... it's just not enough. i literally just can't. I'll NEVER be okay with junichi just taking him back like that, i'm SO mad on his behalf. Tatsuya is just SUCH (can't put the word "such" in caps enough times on this page) a piece of shit. I seriously just can't... trying to put what i feel about him into words is like trying to justify how good this manga is in words as well... i literally just can't. I really regret the whole situation between tatsuya's son and his best friend as well... it's a bittersweet ending, but more on the bitter side in my opinion. Back when i read this i was also watching peach girl for the first time and the emotional roller coaster from both of them gave me the ability to fucking astral project...
damn girl we so think alike (づ￣ ³￣)づ ii am so satisfied to read the comment and the post aah its like i am not the only one who want to punch tatsuya till he drop dead
i know i'm starting to sound like a broken record saying this, but I just can't even go there... If i try to seriously think about how much i hate tatsuya my mind goes blank, it's like a fucking trauma. I'm happy for junichi finally getting what he's wanted all along, but at the same time i just... i was going to say i want tatsuya to die, but it's just not enough. Nothing could be enough.
You gave yourself quite the double whammy didn't you?
I haven't read this in years and i'm starting to get whiplash from the emotions coming back to me just from talking about this. I'm being serious when i say this'll stay with me forever. Complex literally became it's own tier to me. When i find REALLY FUCKING GOOD yaoi i say it's on complex level (still haven't found something equal to this though, despite all the masterpieces out there).
OMG THIS HAD ME CRYING SO MUCH THAT I FEEL LIKE MY EYES HAVE DRIED UP!!!! But I digress, and this is definitely worth reading an amazing story that goes from childhood to old age, a rare and amazing thing in manga, especially yaoi.
Now I apologize to those who disagree but there was definitely one thing I could have done without and it was tatsuya and his bitch ass cheating with that bitch ass whore. Like I had to decided whether or not I would finish the story knowing in the end hima dn Jun would get back together after after he did him SO FUCKING DIRTY!!!! He cheated, left him, and decided to live some fucking happily married life with this bitch. And to top it off even though SHE STOLE HIS MAN SHE IS DYING IN THE HOSPITAL SPEWING SOME HATEFUL "I WOULD NEVER LET YOU HAVE HIM?" HOE WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU? YOU SHOULD BE APOLOGIZING TO HIM YOU SLEPT WITH HIS MAN AND TRAPPED HIM WITH SOME FUCKING BABY!!!!!! BITCH GET OUT MY FACE BEFORE I SLAP THE TASTE OUT OF YOUR MOUTH. BITCH ASS HOE.(she lucky I wasn't there, oh how dare you yell at him THEN ASK HIM TO RAISE YOUR BABY when you LITERALLY STOLE HIS BOYFRIEND KNOWING THEY WERE IN LOVE?! Hopsital or not I would have beat her ass for him because that is a trifling person and that is beyond disrespectful. She is not a good person and I'm sorry no one can convince me she is)
But even worse for me was after seeing all the pain and hurt Jun went through HE STILL WENT BACK TO THAT MOTHERFUKER, who is we forgot SAID HE LOVED JUN FIRST SO WHAT THE FUCK? That was not cool, I can't believe Jun went back, like omg that is such love that it broke my heart a second time and I was just kinda angry the last 2 volumes.
But other than that bullshit the story was legitimately amazing and heartwarming and you are missing out if you don't read it. <3 <3 <3
