What the- that was sooo good!!! I mean, i was consistently feeling aches in my chest all throughout the story whenever their feelings were being halted. I mean, unrequited love is really a heart wrenching curse that could happen to a person in love. Everytime Mr. Shijima rejected Takito, i felt the pain too. Most especially in that night on a trip, Takito asked to stop even though deep in his heart, he didn't want to be separated to the person he's deeply in love with. Plus, Takito really did realize things and tried to solved it. But then again, Mr.nishijima's feelings were all valid, his fears, his anxiety... Like imagine a coworker you've been working along with suddenly confessed to you out of nowhere and to top it all... He's a guy and you're a straight guy who doesn't feel romance towards same sex until the confession. Me. Nishijima even did try to solve things too. They actually exerted effort to meet halfway. I also like the pacing. The development of Mr. Nishijima's feelings were there, he got confessed, he processed, he realized, and accepted it. It was nice, especially on that part when Mr. Nishijima realized his feelings and his behavior towards it- like it's not magic that when he realized his feelings he wanted to do things... it's not like that, instead, he still was learning and trying to catch up on the new things that happened to him, this showed that their wasn't forced and they really thought about it. The journey was really painful but worth it. The artstyle's nice too ️ (just had checked on my list and can't believe it!!! It's Feb. 13, 2925 now and I found out that I already added this on my list way back!!! Probably last year but still, same sentiment, same effect on the me now who's still not brave enough
