Das rite Ichimaru, know your place! Get your own spin-off manga my dude. Haruto has a grown-ass, mature guy who openly communicates his feelings and doesn't fly off the handle at the drop of a hat. He's caring, considerate, understanding, kind and protective and is secure enough in his relationship that he doesn't go into jealous rages either. Sure, he's not perfect but he's perfect for Haruto.
I love sensei's sense of humor. And she expresses it not only through the dialogue but also through the art. When I see those stick figure drawings, I am just done! Lols for days! It's the most haphazard drawing but it's just so damn effective! I can read her work any day of the week and always be satisfied, regardless of the character design similarities. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
Honestly, Ren seemed more mature than Haruto in that moment where he spoke of the realities of life. A home, food, clothing, school... it ain't for free. All good and well to talk about what's the right thing to do but at the end of the day, the kid wants a decent life for himself and unfortunately this is the only way he knows how to keep his current life. He's a kid who's dealing with adult problems, he needs support and guidance, not a slap and a kick out the door. This isn't about you Haruto... You wanted to get involved so get involved already and help him find an alternative solution here. You're the damn adult. Ugh.. this manga and the feels punches it delivers... #-.-)
Someone call the doctor, 'cos I'm gonna need some insulin. All this here sweetness! <3
