I really felt for the main story’s characters. I totally get them. I get Saku. However, in my opinion, most audience might’ve experienced the story better if the writing had been expanded into more chapters and scenes or events between the starting and ending events of the manga (or even if they’d continued the story after these chapters), because then the audience would’ve been able to stay longer with the characters in their moments and in their situations, and find it much more natural to empathise. I think that if we got to know Kyousuke more, more about him other than Saku, the audience might’ve been able to digest the dynamic easier. His earnestness, simplicity, patience and love might have been more believable if we were shown more of his personality, his simple behaviours and reasons. Otherwise, he’s more of an unrealistically good loving guy trying to love a burdensome person. There could’ve been balance if Saku’s complex personality and behaviours got screen time not at the expense of Kyousuke’s and his multidimensionally. I had a good experience reading it though. I felt it, I liked it, but maybe because I have ten times the patience of a regular consumer since I’m in the writing and media business lol.
