Beachloves's manga / #Slice of life(332)

Yep it's another slow burn adorable romance with one sex scene, but of my god its cute

Ok! Alright! Ok! Uh Huh! This was the ABSOLUTE SHIT! Like fuck me sideways this was perfection. Good god! I wish I could forget it so I could read it again for the first time! The only problem is there isn't more!!!!!??? Seriously read this. ***The only thing that caused a bit of an issue for me was the age gap. Seme's in college and the urk's second year in high school. So like ages 20 and 16 to start (I'm guessing). This is not a terrible age gap... and later on in life when one is 24 and the other is 20 it won't matter at all. But something about it starting when the urk is so vulnerable in high school just feels a bit yucky??? So my advice is to do what I did and just ignore that completely and enjoy all the rest of the wholesome love, respect, and CONSENT that occurs in this story.

Note to self: This is labeled as Yaoi, it is def 100% Shounen Ai. But it is so hilarious! I laughed so hard my sides hurt several times. Very funny!

Very good Shounen ai about enemies to friends to lovers. Well done!

Holy shit this broke my fucking heart! I loved it! I wish there was more!!!

This was pretty great! The characters were a bit more complex than the typical rom-com. ***Spoiler thoughts*** When they met again I wish that the Seme had given some kind of explanation for his behavior when they were kids? Or at least said clearly "I made a mistake by hurting your feelings when I did 'XXXX' and that's why now I have changed my behavior in order to pursue a relationship with you and do 'XXXX'" I know that its a BL and not every little thing is going to be explained but I really wanted him to take some responsibility for fucking up. But he kinda just apologized vaguely and they moved on.

Somehow the sequel is amazing?! I read the original directily before this and tbh I hated it. Then I read this and it's amazing?!? There is character development, hot consensual sex, and interesting plot beats. Would reccomend!

So good! I loved the characters, the way the flashbacks were incorporated into the narrative, the personal growth! *French Kiss*
