Why is it that all great stories end up having less chapters (/TДT)/ ╥﹏╥ This was sweet..though what Youshiro did to Waki was borderline cruel but I understand why he did it and he deserves to be with Waki despite all he did cuz Waki was the only one who came to understand Youshiro's loneliness and was able to pry open the barriers in Youshiro's heart (*˘︶˘*).。*♡
This was messed up on so many levels. Souya and Akira were dealing with so much pain, yearning and sadness. If only Souya-san accepted Akira's love..if only Akira accepted Kaoru's love. Guess it was meant to be unrequited for all as the summary said. *Sigh* This was a disaster waiting to happen( ̄∇ ̄")
Like all Hidaka Shoko's stories this also had a realistic aspect to it which I enjoyed thoroughly. But when their past was shown, I felt that both were too hasty in their approach and opinionated towards their relationship without considering how the other felt which was to be expected from the two highschool kids falling in love. It would have been nice to see both of them talking it out for them to get some form of closure and then restarting anew instead of being insecure in their own ways. Unexpectedly the way they reconciled somehow felt like a closure in itself and left me feeling bittersweet. It was wonderful. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
It was interesting how the mangaka described the traumatic aftereffects of rape victims in such graphic detail. The guilt, shame and disgust faced in the hands of their assaulter and the unwanted physiological betrayal that may arise from their body in some cases. Though it was graphic and readers find it revolting and unnecessary it gives cause for insight on how rape victims suffer after the incident and how they handle and endure it's aftermath physically as well as psychologically. I found this aspect of the story very good. Rest of the storyline was hinted at Nishino maybe not being dead. Nishino' character development and how he dealt with Souta's situation seemed a bit rushed imo. It should have been a bit long. But still a good read
LMAO *dies of laughter*
