i did some math lol, in korea c131 was released on Feb 5 and c132 was released in April 25. so that was 2 months and 20 days. since c131 Eng ver was released on March 19, i am hoping c132 Eng ver will be released on June 9, which should be soon!
the author is such a good egg. like they have a great head above their shoulders, with ample of empathy and love, and you can see and feel it in the dialogues. this story gives out very nice life advices and some philosophical stuffs for you to ponder about, without being too dark or losing its touch of humor. one of the best works out there atm tbh.
we need to unite all titles under author "Janome" and "Jyanome" into one because it's the same person T_T
anw i think with the way this whole series has been set up, Janome could expand this universe a lot should they want to. like sending the characters to college, and then work afterwards, throwing in some classic Janome's soft sadness and pain of growing up (check out their other works to know more)... i hope all of us will be able to follow the journey of our 6 main characters for a long time!
guys so there's a second volume of this (story about jin and giichi) right https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%81%98%E3%82%83%E3%81%AE%E3%82%81-ebook/dp/B0F328782H
i wonder when will we get to read it in english T_T
i think the author is still a bit green with their plot/writing, but there is potential and their art skills are great so i think their work in the future should be sth to look forward to.
i hunted down the raw ver just to see if there's hanja/hanzi/chinese charater of Muheun's name in c34 and hell yeah there it was. Mu-heun = 霧昕, in which 霧=wù=mist/fog and 昕=xīn=early morning/dawn. if yall havent noticed, the story's name is literally "무흔의 밤", "Muheun's Night"
also according to the raw chap 47 was posted in March 28, 2 weeks after c46. AND AFTER THAT THE AUTHOR TOOK A LONG BREAK DUE TO HEALTH REASON. chap 48 korean ver is expected to be released on May 31.
Reading all of them at once and you can see the progress of the author's writing. You know how sometimes authors would churn out sequels just because they can/due to publisher's pressure and you can tell the quality decreases overtime? But some authors, like Janome, manages to make the sequels even better than before, I think because they truly grow along with their work. It's an amazing thing to observe and see as a reader tbh!
Also I love Rei and Jin's frienship so much (and how they both end up with fiery boyfriends that can rile them up haha)! One great thing about this whole series is that Janome makes sure to portray the beauty of love AND friendships! All main characters have their lovers ok, but they also have friends that love, understand and treasure them. It's awesome.
sugura is such an interesting character with mega DUALITY. like his gloomy self at work vs his flamboyant self when he goes out is night and day (quite literally haha). and he's a switch! he can top AND bottom! lowkey wanna see more of him.
anw back to our main couple, what can i say, this is another great work from Janome! tugging just a right amount on our heartstring, a not too light not too heavy read. and gorg art as usual.
And like three boyfriends, he is living life and he’s sassy about it. I love his character so much actually, his vibes and his style are what I need in my life (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
9th grade? i know these stories dont tend to be grounded in reality anw but that was a bit much, no? like i had a brief hockey phase and the few players that i knew all started hockey when they were in pre-school or primary school. in fact most pro athletes start early... sure it's for plot's sake but i feel like the author could have made things more believable to people who actually know a thing or two about this sport. i guess they dont care that much because most fans care more about the romance aspect than the sport aspect. oh well
its not that deep thats still early-mid teen years yes there r cases of athletes starting later. also this is a romance bl so why r u suprised that people care more ab the romance aspect of it
Lots of people start sports in high school, are really good, and become professional
The even more unrealistic part is having such an awkwardly down bad hottie LMAO. But jokes aside, the narrative benefit is that it does explain why Eunsan developed a bit of an inferiority complex. He who had been training for so much longer naturally felt jilted when a younger kid comes sweeping the floor with talent on top of hard work. The realistic part is that in this world, we do end up competing with ppl who are more prodigious.
fr, may a love like this find me
