Frfrfr, my personal mini tragedy is that I find the Finder boring as fuck now. Well, that might be a bit of over exaggeration, but still.
Like the communication and fluff is well deserved, but there's just too much relationshippal (not a word, I know, I made it) fluff, I tire of it.
Also it feels like AY started to treat it like checking off the boxes for all kinds of tropes.
After the tone has been set at the beginning, I really was hoping for the deeper drama, the angst, the complicated, the hot but heavy due to unresolved emotions and emotional constipation sex, and it was that for a hot sec, and then it just turned to action - sex - fluff.
I wanted it to go deeper, like when Asami was consoling Akihito after the policeman stuff.
There's a few fanfics that actually do a better job at continuing character's arcs and plots in general.
Like, I dunno, at risk of getting cursed up and down, I just feel like it's so bland now, and Akihito looks even more like a girl, and Asami just kind of became a same-faced slab of stone.
It's a bit sad to me, is all.
The reason I'm still reading is I want to find out how it's gonna end and an hoping for a happy ending and closure at last.
I started reading this manga around the time Michael first was introduced in the Hong Kong arc (over a decade ago), and then I dropped it around the time Sudo was first introduced. Just binged it and WOW is this a fever dream toward the end! This could have ended chapter 87: all enemies are dead or caught, asami realizing and admitting he loved takaba, takaba finally getting respected enough to be allowed to go to such a dangerous environment instead of being treated like a child… then nah, secret agent arc lmaoooo and I agree, everyone looks like a twink now
