Girl, he's "reformed" because he's happy he had unconsenting sex with a sleeping person. Now I'm not a stickler for consent in a story but it is baffling how out of touch this webtoon is. The story's atmosphere doesn't match what's happening at all and it's downright creepy framing this as the happy after story.
His argument was so dumb - he said he had girlfriends who didn't like him if they weren't dating him, so he couldn't date Minato because Minato would hate him for something like they did.
But Minato is the exact opposite situation to all his ex-gf's he just quoted because they're already friends and Minato already likes him as platonic friends?
I dunno, the author clearly wanted Wataru to be broody and wanted to slow down the pacing of this with his internal anguish - but Wataru just irritated me with his bad arguments. Minato's weren't much better, but maybe that's a cultural difference. They just felt so indirect and like there were better ways to say their arguments.
At least it was cute!
I wish they went back to the island together and hung out with the grandma instead - she's gonna be in trouble alone during the next Typhoon, and he's gonna have trouble with his dad's expectations of his gay son having children.
It was nice and fluffy but there were so many angles I wanted to hear more from. He was way happier on the island.
Of course, no shade to the other authors; they're sick and should rightfully be resting instead, but even this author's medical announcement has a little drawn story. It's so long. I love the effort they're putting in so consistently. Enjoy the rest! (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
