Reading this was so good, it is very very well written, I like everything about it The characters, story, the plot The development was really good, the author really fleshed out the story properly
I love how realistic the story is in portraying these kinds of relationships and the struggles that come with it, it wasn't easy for the both of them but I'm glad they got over it and grown as a couple.
Sometimes you can't get what you want, you gotta make compromises and thats what they did, it was a good decision, they still share the same love for badminton and that will never change, their relationship is so healthy, supporting and loving each other, I'm so happy for them
Edit: Okay reading some of the comments I get why there are criticisms but in my point of view, the behaviours of both characters were completely justified and couldn't be helped, they're not stupid, they just needed time to talk about the elephant in the room. Hodaka was aware of that, in the first place the both of them decided they were gonna keep on playing together, he knows it well, what he said. That is the very fact that he found it hard to break it to Naruse.
Naruse on the other hand, I wouldn't call it "forcing his dreams on someone" His behaviour is completely understandable considering how they shared the promise for years and he believed it to be true Its only natural for him to keep bringing up his excitement knowing he thought that Hodaka would be his partner.
Anyways those are just my thoughts, all I can say is I can never hate on them they are so precious, they just dont wanna let their partner down and want to be together
Other thoughts: I love how this manga focused on this type of plot, it was very refreshing to see two adults work out their problems and finding their purpose.
