Man this was just something. It kinda makes sense in my eyes that both of them had misunderstandings about their initial relationship. Itonaga thinking Sanada was pitying dating him to atone for bullying him for presumably being gay, while Sanada thinks Itonaga's going along with it cuz he's afraid to say no. Like the fact that they both entered the relationship elated but lowkey suspicious about it seemed realistic to me, I guess? Sanada knew he was a horrible person back then and expected Itonaga to still hate him inside. Itonaga was insecure for the same reason. And even after they cleared up their misunderstandings, they're still quick to jump to the wrong conclusion because of that insecurity. And honestly, Sanada does really suspicious things like come on, Itonaga's a pure boi and you had to randomly drag in sex toys into this? Blindfold him so you don't have to see his potential hatred for you? All this while still thinking he hates you? Like bro, how about you treat him gently and kindly and make sure you're on the same page, and THEN bring in your kinks lolll
And ngl, when they flashbacked to Sanada's thoughts in his middle school days showing how he bullied Itonaga cuz he didn't want to accept he was in love with him and then show his happiness over hearing Itonaga transferred... I honestly was like "wat a piece of shit." Like normally you'd see the character be all "D: omg I caused him to transfer damn that was bad of me." he's just like :D that freakin smile. I'm like oooookay then. Well, just goes to cement his internalized homophobia and he does feel bad about thinking that at least.
Y'all are wild. What I wanna know is, aren't they in danger of like, you know, developing a UTI or something considering they be stayin in that pee for too long and having sex right after...?
Also that one shot of his gaping wide butthole during that sex scene in front of that yakuza, yaaa I could have done without seeing that, thanks lollll
Okay honestly I was tryin real hard to find out when on earth Ryo even fell for Takumi cuz I thought he just had sex with him in the beginning cuz Takumi was bein really annoyin as hell and a real sleaze. Honestly, he's such a sleaze. At least Ryo explained it's cuz he liked the expressions Takumi made so that's where the love came from but damn. He's such a sleaze. But must admit, Takumi really did get a lot hotter after he started dating Ryo that's for sure.
This page makes me laugh too: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/24_jikan_ochi_nai_kiss/uu/ibx_chapter-11/pg-9/
First guy imagines Takumi as the uke he really is, second guy imagines him as a power bottom, and third guy still can't get believe Takumi's the uke so imagines theme as a seke couple with Ryo taking over.
Honestly, already knew from the beginning that A: everyone would find out they're dating. B: would eventually find out Takumi's the uke.
Anyway this ended up being a really cute read, I kinda wish it was longer.
Well now. I thought Gawain would be more tsundere, but he's pretty straightforward now that he seems to more accepting of Senianna, and now that he knows how abused she was. I'm glad Senianna called him out on it, and Gawain didn't get angry but accepted that she was right. Looks like Lancelot's the snake and Gawain is a good boi. He's my favorite now.
I read this here first and then just watched the drama up to episode 6. And now I'm back cuz I feel like Adachi's a bit more awkward in the drama lol. A bit more awkward and Kurosawa's actions come off as a tiiiiny bit more sketchy. That almost kiss after Adachi told him he didn't hate it seemed a bit more dubious in the live action cuz he seemed more confused going "what?" when Kurosawa asked him if he knew what he was saying, while over here Adachi nodded. Both versions are good though! I just feel live action is just altering Adachi's character a little to better fit as a drama rather than a manga.
At first I thought the drama aimed to be more slowburn than the manga hence the nuances in the characterisation...but then again the next volume of manga they still sorting out their feelings, not much skinship as well.. And Adachi drama gave more this cutesy klutzy feelings than the manga XD
When I watch ep 1 I felt like, wow kurosawa is so handsome but tf with the smiles?! Look so pretentious lol! but the more eps I watched it looks to me more like that kinda guy who covers every emotion with smile and when he looks so lost for slipping self-control when watching Adachi sleeps and looks so resigned about giving up his feelings...I get it then, he's shown more as a romanticist ig, while in the manga he is a teeny bit hornier lmao
I wonder how many vol will be covered up in the series tho. They did really good cramming up the plot so far, it doesn't feel rushed
YO HOLD UP! I waited years for this to update only to realize 1. It updated 2 years ago and I missed that update. 2. It's getting an English release!!!

I read this ages after I read the first one twice and was finally like "time to read" and I can't remember anything about the characters. Like I know Oriya and Eiji, sure. I thought I remembered Okui bein jelly in the first story. I didn't remember the predictions guy AT ALL. Time to re-read the first story for a third time.
Honestly though, I wish Okui and Shinohara's story was longer it was kinda weird for it all to be done so quick. It was like 3 chapters and BAM they're in a relationship. Okui's so pure that he's upset about losing his first kiss, and he thinks kisses should only be done with someone you like. But as it is in yaoi, he doesn't mind sex as soon as you finally confess ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Ok the Kakeru and Hiroto story was cute but like did they haaaave to be brothers? Guess they had to tie up the loose ends with Kakeru's mom asking to see Hiroto's dad and then have those two polar opposites get together. I'd rather mangaka-san picked one option rather than both, honestly.
Also regarding Kei, I honestly don't think Kei's even really 100% straight. Kei had no second thoughts or reservations about getting with a guy. He's so damn open about everything, from using anal sex toys, having sex with a guy, to falling in love with Shoichi. In the end he says he sees his relationship as falling in love with Shoichi rather than falling in love with a guy so he probably has no real preference at all. Either he's straight and Shoichi's his one exception, or he's interested in people, regardless of gender or sex. Too bad he gets labeled as straight anyway by Shoichi, or gay just for being with Shoichi.
But I also can't blame Shoichi's reservations in getting with Kei since like. Dude was bein too rude in the beginning lolll
