i rarely comment on here anymore but i just have to say i'm still up in the air with my opinion of this story for a couple of reasons but annoyingly enough the biggest reason is because of the occasional awkward translations, poorly cropped pages, and bad quality. i feel so shitty saying it because i know whoever is translating this is doing it on their free time and simply because they want to share it with others but damn.
A painful read, but I loved coming back to this for so many reasons.
The pain and sadness make it seem real. While it hurts so much to know that Kirino took that path I also find it important to have something like that in a yaoi manga. Not everything ends with sunshine and daisies, though I do think that he ended up finding some happiness in his life with having a child.
I also think it's cool that one of the characters realized they're bi and not the classic "I was straight until I fell in love with a guy and now I'm gay" that you find in a lot of yaoi.
I'm happy that there was a happy ending for two of the characters, though, because if there wasn't I think I wouldn't be able to recover.
Anyway, not sure anyone will read this haha but I had to get this out.
wait... why did i love this so much?? i was expecting something to just pass the time with smut but like damn. this had everything! humor, romance, a good story, amazing smut, a shy seme, a goofy uke.. definitely going into my "read again" list
