hey guys its the uploader morse_fellow here, and i wanna talk about the ending. For me, the ending did not at all feel "flat" or rushed - I can see where you guys are coming from, but to me it's actually one of the better, deeper, and NUANCED endings I've ever read to a manga.
From the very start, Sera is depicted as a character who is extremely straightforward and is really only in it to experience new pleasures, and chases after Ryo: "I want to know more about you." I think it's actually refreshing and I appreciate that his character is consistent. You can TELL SERA HAS GROWN, and that he says he was only interested in having sex, but now, he wanted to "know what you like, what you don't like... how you grew up, what makes you laugh... I think it would be even more fun if I could learn those things..." and its only in the end that Sera's character breaks and there's sort of a gap between his cool, charming, relaxed personality to him desperately trying to act confident.
"my intentions are still the same! I don't want it to end. I want to know more about you."
he's so shy and sheepish when he says it, it made me really happy to see him be honest.
Ryo, as well finally opens up. "In that case, tell me about yourself too." throughout we see him talking about how he doesn't want to fall in love like his mother - THIS IS HIS CONFESSION. HE WANTS TO LEARN AND TRUST SERA TOO, AND FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM.
To all the ppl who said it was unsatisfying, felt too rushed/short, I DISAGREE (though the side story for a blow job was kinda ass)
