The raws...!

Warning! This comment might contain spoiler!

This was a great story that ended flatly.

It’s not bad, it just feels unfinished and unresolved.

And I feel unfulfilled and dissatisfied.

And the author just had to do one thing, and it will make it a great story that ended amazingly!

I get the author not letting us, the audience, see his face at the beginning.

And it forces us to become invested in the story and outcome.

It adds to the tension. So, we are just as anxious as Kamijou.

And the mask is a visual aid for the current status of their relationship.

But, once everything is resolved, I don’t get why the author didn't show his face.

Even if we saw if face after Kamijou, it would have made sense, and I would not have complained.


The author could have use one of two ways for the reveal:

1)Show us his face when Kamijou sees his face.

2)or show us his face after the Kamijou sees his face, for example show Kamijou his face first and then in a later chapter show us, the audience, his face.


But we, the readers, are still left with that built-up tension. And it needs to be relieved.

Personally, I think the last panel should have been just a large one-page picture of the uke's face smiling happily unrestrained.

That way, we see his happiness and Kamijou’s happiness and the fruit of their love journey’s labor and their growing and deepening trust of each other.

If the uke (I don't know his name) was that expressive covered up, imagine what his unmasked fully shown face would look like...!
