I just cant disagree
Ok, im a bit irked by that person below for implying that the romance of the manga is wasted on "uke-like" and "fucking retarded" reasons.
First, that wasnt the only reason why he ran away. He was conflicted. If Tetsu and Tora will get into a relationship, the gang members will get jealous of Tora. He is worried that he will ruin Tetsu's image who everyone looks up to, thus breaking the gang as a whole. Also, he knows that he will become a target to those gang members. Ryuu is also in danger knowing that the gang members will pull up anything just to get back at him. Really, the reasons why he ran away are not as simple (also not retarded) as oH gOsH hE MiGhT nOt ReCiPrOcAtE mY fEeLiNgS.
Second, Tora knows that there is something between them. Im sure that he already has a hunch of how Tetsu felt about him. But, what he was anxious about was how their relationship would progress. He wasnt scared of how Tetsu would react about him being gay, but how they would handle their relationship from that point. Tora knows very well that Tetsu is the leader of the gang and that everyone looks up to him, and also the fact that Tetsu should not have favorites among the members. Because of these reasons, they would be forced to conceal their relationship. And that setup is very unsettling. Thats what makes him anxious the most. He was scared of taking the risk in entering an unsecured relationship that could ruin their bonds with people and could even potentially put his family, especially his younger brother, in danger. So he decided to cut it off before he becomes too attached.
Third, Tetsu waited for five years because he was scared that Tora would disappear again. He was afraid that the same thing would happen before. He expressed his feelings for Tora by being intimate but what did it result to? Tora ran away. Tetsu is just being cautious.
Lastly, I do agree that 9 years is a very effing slow progress. But. The reasons are not horrible. Id even say that they were realistic and could actually portray real life struggles and anxieties when entering a relationship. That being said, I love this manga and kudos to Author-san for the masterpiece
