ewww the part with the old man was so nasty / unnecessary. why couldn't this one be wholesome like the author's other work? （/TДT)/
this was such a refreshing manga to read. i love the progression and development of their relationship as nothing ever felt too forced or awkward. it was also nice to see that their friends were accepting of them. that aside, something i noticed was that there were parts where their love story reminded me of a girl x boy shoujo manga (ex: when aoki spends the whole night freaking out over the text he sent ida.) it just shows how gender shouldn't matter and i think that's beautiful. gay couples are the same as straight couples: love is love. aoki and ida have become one of my favorite couples and it's all thanks to the author's wonderful story telling.
i knew the two empty seats were going to be for taiga and rin but who else thought that the last seat was going to be for their kid? rip
i know we're meant to root for haru and kunihiko because they're the main couple but it's hard to do that (imo) when kunihiko doesn't seem like a reliable lover, let alone a goof friend. kuni has haru take care of him, he plays around with haru's feelings, and he messes around with other side chicks. to top it all off, he doesn't even have the balls to confess to haru and avoids him instead. haru needs a partner he can rely on, not someone to babysit.
*good friend
Exactly my thought reading the latest chapter.. the seme suxx.. the reconciliation was solved a bit rushy.. idk why people call it healthy but so far haru is the one who been played by kunihiko selfishness
i just read the ending and i found it unsurprisingly disappointing. their make up was so half-assed and felt unfinished. also, haru forgiving kunihiko just because he said he liked him back rubbed me the wrong way. if kunihiko liked him that much, he should have confessed to haru instead of dating other people. their relationship might not be abusive but it's not healthy. healthy relationships should be give and take. haru is the only one giving in this, imo. all in all, it seems like haru is just settling for someone mediocre and ended up with kunihiko just because he's his assigned love interest and not because they have a strong connection.
okay but real talk, we need a side story for the main character's friends
