Like, the plot was interesting, the story had fucking potential... but everything was happening too fast and suddenly they had to make characters tell what you were missing in between, the building was messy because of that... i couldn't empathize with anyone: time skips all the time, no relationship building, rie and akiyuki's past seems sketchy, what about the trial? Did they make raimu testify? And do they only meet once a year? And what about this 14-year-old raimu who pushed akiyuki to become family and took care of him? And we are told rie cheated and end of story? No arguing no reflection on their relationship from any side? And Taro's story was so cut off that we don't understand anything at all about him, his motivations, nothing at all.... Istg that if they wrote 3 or 4 more chapters this could have been an amazing heartfelt story and much better developed!
I was wondering if it was worth it until I reach the end of ch 4 and thought "here, we have some good stuff for later". Yes, some parts are kind of rushed but it's understandable since the mangaka tried to do compilations stories and then, the tonkaboun came haha
For me, chapter 8 was definetly the best, Miharu's acceptance of gis past and present was wholesome. I know it's rushed, but lets take into account that this wasn't going to be a full fledge story. I'm glad I read this!! And it definetly was worth it when I read Miharu saying "You didn't think a guy like me was gonna let you go with just bottoming" ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄ Now, that's my cup of tea!! Hahaha
A great read!
Well, I know a lot are saying they prefer Sano's story... But I really loved this one. It's more my cup of tea... It shows how you can still have an amazing manga with a cliche troupe.
It could be that my ahgase heart was already sensitive enough , but it had my heart bleeding since the first chapter with a warm feeling (masochist who?). Akito was loving Kiriya so whole-heartedly and purely and both of them were so painfully engaging in each others lives with their wounds at open air, self-indulging themselves in the little things they could grab a grasp to... God! To me it was, hurtful in a healing way... I am so thankful, uploader, for you and this manga right now.
I'll admit there are a few things that normally would have put me off inmediately, but as I said I was sensitive and I needed to cry a bit more... and truly, Akito's feelings are beautiful and I really think that Kiriya needed that innocense and honesty to be able to move on from all the farse he had made for himself while still hurting himself. It was a eay to start loving himself a bit more...
Anyways, I'm glad I came across this manga
I'm just guessing but what if Aoyama's parents threaten him with taking tsumu away if he was with a man? Kind of "that is not a healthy enviroment for a child" bullshit... It seemed like Aoyama was afraid of going back home and he really cares about Tsumu and Nogi, but he also said that he was thinking about marriage... What if he was set up with someone under the excuse of giving Tsumu a full family? Maybe that's why he needed to be back home... Maybe that's why Tsumu's been anxious about Nogi leaving...
But i dont think his parents are alive...
I feel like there must be a chapter misding or sth between chapters 2 and 3. Like... how do we go from "I don't know you. Don't come back" to "Do you wanna meet this weekend?" And the guy at the end seemed like he was waiting for Ryosuke... just from that time in chapter 2? Doesn't seem credible enough
