I don't know how to feel. Someone tell me how to feel. I hate everything about this and them ending up together in the end does nothing but stress me out. AIGOOO. WHY IS HE FALLING FOR HIM? WHY DID HE CHOOSE TO BE RAPED?! WHY DID HE CRY?! IS HE GUILTY?! IS HE SAD?! IS HE ANGRY?! WHY?! WHY DID HE KISS HIM?! DOES HE EVEN CARE ABOUT HIS LOVER?! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! WHY?! UGH MY HEART HURTS!!!
Thanks for letting me rant I needed to get that off my chest. ON TO THE NEXT CHAPTER!!
Id be lying if I said I hated the first story because I know exactly what my issue with it was (ignoring that I am personally not a shota fan so that was a MAJOR turn off and made me uncomfortable but I can ignore things and just view something as art and not life), but personally the third creepy character made it hard for me. Having him there made it so that even though I should have viewed him as nothing more than the creep he was, i felt a pity for him and a dislike for the main couple. As I watched them fall for eachother there was ZERO happiness on my end and this was because his dumbass was in my mind the whole time and it bothered the fuck out of me, like all I could think is your losing your love and poor thing like he wasn't the worlds biggest creep. Like the 2nd story 1.000,000 times more.
same tbh the first story had a really cute uke and the seme was alright but the creepy third character.. just. ugh. and what really made me upset was when he recorded them too so later on, in another couple's story, the third character left his phone at his friends house and that friend showed the recordings to the couple whose story it was. ffs..
OMG THIS HAD ME CRYING SO MUCH THAT I FEEL LIKE MY EYES HAVE DRIED UP!!!! But I digress, and this is definitely worth reading an amazing story that goes from childhood to old age, a rare and amazing thing in manga, especially yaoi.
Now I apologize to those who disagree but there was definitely one thing I could have done without and it was tatsuya and his bitch ass cheating with that bitch ass whore. Like I had to decided whether or not I would finish the story knowing in the end hima dn Jun would get back together after after he did him SO FUCKING DIRTY!!!! He cheated, left him, and decided to live some fucking happily married life with this bitch. And to top it off even though SHE STOLE HIS MAN SHE IS DYING IN THE HOSPITAL SPEWING SOME HATEFUL "I WOULD NEVER LET YOU HAVE HIM?" HOE WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU? YOU SHOULD BE APOLOGIZING TO HIM YOU SLEPT WITH HIS MAN AND TRAPPED HIM WITH SOME FUCKING BABY!!!!!! BITCH GET OUT MY FACE BEFORE I SLAP THE TASTE OUT OF YOUR MOUTH. BITCH ASS HOE.(she lucky I wasn't there, oh how dare you yell at him THEN ASK HIM TO RAISE YOUR BABY when you LITERALLY STOLE HIS BOYFRIEND KNOWING THEY WERE IN LOVE?! Hopsital or not I would have beat her ass for him because that is a trifling person and that is beyond disrespectful. She is not a good person and I'm sorry no one can convince me she is)
But even worse for me was after seeing all the pain and hurt Jun went through HE STILL WENT BACK TO THAT MOTHERFUKER, who is we forgot SAID HE LOVED JUN FIRST SO WHAT THE FUCK? That was not cool, I can't believe Jun went back, like omg that is such love that it broke my heart a second time and I was just kinda angry the last 2 volumes.
But other than that bullshit the story was legitimately amazing and heartwarming and you are missing out if you don't read it. <3 <3 <3
OMFG, yes. This ^. This ^ was exactly the reaction i had after i first read this manga, i was literally happy when i found out she had cancer and then later died. Her talking shit during that scene where she and junichi meet again is what sealed the deal for me. To this day this is literally THE best yaoi manga (probably manga in general) that i have EVER read. I read this years ago. This manga is a fucking masterpiece and i'm pretty sure it only has 9.1 rating because there're some pedophile chapters (like 2 meant as comedy). I seriously can't even... nothing i could possibly say would do this manga justice. I sincerely believe that anyone who doesn't read this is missing something important in their life. I can't even put an emoticon here... it's just not enough. i literally just can't. I'll NEVER be okay with junichi just taking him back like that, i'm SO mad on his behalf. Tatsuya is just SUCH (can't put the word "such" in caps enough times on this page) a piece of shit. I seriously just can't... trying to put what i feel about him into words is like trying to justify how good this manga is in words as well... i literally just can't. I really regret the whole situation between tatsuya's son and his best friend as well... it's a bittersweet ending, but more on the bitter side in my opinion. Back when i read this i was also watching peach girl for the first time and the emotional roller coaster from both of them gave me the ability to fucking astral project...
damn girl we so think alike (づ￣ ³￣)づ ii am so satisfied to read the comment and the post aah its like i am not the only one who want to punch tatsuya till he drop dead
i know i'm starting to sound like a broken record saying this, but I just can't even go there... If i try to seriously think about how much i hate tatsuya my mind goes blank, it's like a fucking trauma. I'm happy for junichi finally getting what he's wanted all along, but at the same time i just... i was going to say i want tatsuya to die, but it's just not enough. Nothing could be enough.
You gave yourself quite the double whammy didn't you?
I haven't read this in years and i'm starting to get whiplash from the emotions coming back to me just from talking about this. I'm being serious when i say this'll stay with me forever. Complex literally became it's own tier to me. When i find REALLY FUCKING GOOD yaoi i say it's on complex level (still haven't found something equal to this though, despite all the masterpieces out there).
Im sorry to say this but from beginning to end I hated Arisawa, to the point I wanted the manga to end. It was so good and awesome and ever character (except him) I love, but I wanted him to give up. I REALLY did.
I hope this doesn't upset anyone but this was definitely going to bug the shit out of me. Gomen Minasan. :(
i kinda like the personality of Arisawa because his pure and fight for his love and he did mature through the story..
i know what you mean and i did feel it once or twice, but for me because the teacher didnt make a clear line and rejected him Arisawa pure as him still believe in his love and go for it, thats why i hated the teacher, if his not interested he should say it directly..
I understand what you are saying and I appreciate your comment. I had never considered it from that perspective because I was thinking too much about my own feelings and how I personally thought persistence was annoying. I'm happy to have a different perspective :)
well persistence can really be annoying but it also has its merit ;)
I liked the story it was cute. To those like "OMG Nao looks like he if 5 and Misaki is a total Pedo!" I totally agree. And im sorry but the dad took that WAYYY too easy i would totally freak out if i saw that happening to my child (esp if 12, young looking or not) and Misaki would have left the story at that point. BUTTTTTT if u can overlook that it is really cute and that is kinda just an excuse for the story to happen. Plus Nao is super mature and that makes him so much cuter when he acts younger. ^u^
yeah I had a few issues with that myself but as he got older it stopped looking like such a gigantic difference. I mean in the beginning the older one looked like an adult and nau looked like a 5 yr old kid which was disturbing. I'm just glad nothing horrific happened there. That relationship actually ended up being much more pure than I was expecting.
Am I wrong or does our precious little uke have a boyfriend?
right? I thought so too
Im happy I'm not alone lolol
Yea. It keeps bothering me, too. Like "But ... but ... how about shinichi...?" ╥﹏╥
I foresee this coming back in coming chapters and the only one hurt is shinichi. smh
