Maybeblue's manga / #Model(15)

Meh...the art was wonky and the story is like a 6.8/10

This story is cute in the weirdest way possibile. Like at first I thought it was gonna revolve around them having sex for the first time (maybe with some kind of twist with Akira being not so clueless as he seems) but surprisingly that never was a big theme in the story. Then I thought they were gonna fight for the fact that the seme was gaining fame and had to hide their relationship, but there were only wholesome moments instead. Then again I thought there was gonna be some drama cuz Akira didn't know shit about his bf after knowing him for 4 years and forgot his birthday (which was honestly a bit sad) and again, nothing happened! No fighting, no drama, he didn't even get angry. At the end too, the whole thing with the seme not knowing what to do with his life was pretty unexpected and came out of nowhere, it was super cute tho. So like maybe I get the feeling the author didn't really know where to go with this story and the end result is kinda all over the place but I can appreciate the wholesomeness and the fact it never followed some boring trope or stereotyped dynamic. Akira's character is probably the strangest here, he's innocent and very very clueless, knows nothing about how an intimate relationship works, he's very blunt and straightforward and even a bit rude sometimes but also has those childish behaviours and has the emotional intelligence of a baby. I like him but I don't understand him in the slightest and I don't get how someone like the mc can be so helplessly in love with him.
