The proudest feeling I had was when she finally said the words she was only thinking and sharing to us, readers. She kept thinking, observing, and learning...and finally, she said the words to her son and it held more conviction and sincerity. Besides, her quiet observation is still parenting, she was literally "watching over" them and supporting in little ways like teaching hiroki to cook or giving him her equipment...ofc there are a lot of disappointments especially when she was "communicating" with her husband (my annoyance towards him was the highest coz he knew his words were hurtful yet only acknowledged it when he thought of his son hearing him say them for years... That's not ignorance anymore, he KNEW it was hurtful and not something you should say). Love the brother's high EQ and glad he gained a friend he relates to. I'm still worried about Hirko's self esteem tho... It felt like his dad (and society) really chipped away so much of him already and i'll just have to imagine him building himself up again to feel worthy of something as a gay.
I've been watching hamster videos on YT, and a BL manga resurfaced from the back of my head. The problem is, I forgot the title. Please help me.
So the MC is a mover, and the client was a stuck up high school topnotcher who is now an elite. During the move, he found his former classmate's hamster cage. The former classmate becones defensive which worsened the MCs impression of him. By twisted fate, the two meet at a mutually close convenient store. As a petty revenge by the former classmate, he intentionally asked the MC about his running career. The MC injured himself back in high school and quit running, which the former classmate knew was his soft spot.
Long story short, the mover has an inferiority complex who used his injury as an excuse to quit. The elite has socializing issues, but envied the mover. Yep, totally asking the Manga Title for the sake of the hamster
The type to read and chuck away after lol. Coz yeah, the tone is pretty much lighthearted despite the deviance of moral compass. The kid doesn't even process it as rape. He's been groomed and it was explicit how his brain was turned to mush with all that sex. I didnt like how it tried to villainize the sister for being a logical adult (author gave up and made her "bless" them anyway). The mom is just an unconventional plot twist and probably a forced plot driver to be jealous of. Aya is 23 and gives little fck actually. He's the typically romanticized delinquent and a manipulator who kept guiding how Nazuko would react lol (the sister was a letdown moment...but what did i expect from the narrative anyway? It's basically a let-live trope that gives zero fcks abt how toxic it is coz Aya is rich and Nazuko is an intellectual...both considered to be functioning and contributing citizens. Unlike if their "future is ruined")
