i probably missed something but i feel weird bc they keep mentioning that they're related.... are they really like blood related??? that part is confusing me lol

just an example here: actor Kevin Bacon and his wife, actress Kyra Sedgwick have been married since 1988, and only in 2013 thru DNA test, they discovered that they are 9th cousin once removed. Their kinship happened generations at least 9 generations ago, so from my POV they can't be considered "cousins" in the sense that we know now. Oh, and Kevin Bacon is also a very distant cousin to Obama (just a trivia lol)

god, their love is so beautiful... you can tell through the way the mangaka draws their expressions and actions that every single panel is so well thought-out.... the newest extra chapter (5.6) emphasized how kaede is changing ren's life and it's soooooo beautiful. this manga is absolutely gorgeous :')))

the newest chapter :(( so many good things that further intensify my love for this story :(((( number 1: shouji and youhei are good friends. i am so glad that they're accepting of isumi and didn't treat it like a big deal. number 2: isumi continues to be a straightforward character who doesn't beat around the bush, and i LOVE that about him. it's so refreshing after reading SOOO many bls with unnecessary drama bc the characters are shit at communicating. he's so cool i love him. number 3: you can literally SEE the moment amasawa realizes that he loves isumi i think. their hug was so telling of their feelings for each other, it was beautiful and so so adorable. ugh i love this story so so much :((((

god... i can't believe it's over. this last chapter hit really close to home. you know, when ed and glenn were on the phone, talking about how ed is going north and glenn is going south, i got kind of scared. like they're going in different directions? are they not meant to be together after all? but then i realized. they're not walking away from each other. they're walking TOWARD each other. that was so beautiful. and that line where ed says "some people just... live." DAMN. i think that's so important because i feel like so many people lose themselves trying to pursue this huge goal, or even beat themselves up over not having a clear future in mind, when in reality, you don't need any of that to live a fulfilling life. all you need is love and happiness, and i think that message was so powerful. kudos to the creators of this story for creating something so beautiful.
GOD their dynamic is literally god tier. we're getting some development with hojun, who's starting to be a bit more assertive and confident in his sex appeal which is really nice to see after his lack of skill ended his previous relationship in the first place LOL (shows that seunghyun was a good teacher wink wink). and seunghyun has always been a solid character. he's so sexy and he knows that, but it's not like that's his only character trait. they feel realistic, and the development of their relationship is sooooo satisfying even considering the obstacles in their path. 1000000/10 and it's not even finished yet
