kokothefujo's manga / #Sex friends(10)

The first story had so much going on. Between being fake sex friends. One guy ending up with who he liked despite that person already know but seemingly choosing to ignore it before the altercation and the other love interest only getting upset when he sees a spicy text. It was a lot. It's all technically resolved but in the ending is more so ambiguous. I'd like more communication so that everything could be understood clearly because the two at the end clearly like each other, but are severely lacking in communication

I think overall this wasn’t a completely horrible story. At least not for a first time Mangaka. For me where it dropped the ball was how confusing Hara was about his feelings. He’s clearly interested in Ume and constantly thinking about him but still dated other people and refused to break up with them. I really didn’t understand that part and then he had the audacity to get upset when he found out the ume was sleeping with other people but didn’t vocalize it and instead took him home and slept with him. This should have been more of a turning point. I like that at the end the Mangaka tried to fix it by making Hara wait outside his house for one month even though he’s sensitive to cold so they could have a face to face conversation. What I think it lacked was hara needed to have a reason for having dated all those people, was he afraid of how society would view them or did he believe that if they never put a label on things they could stay together forever? Either way hopefully this mangaka makes more works because I need more of this art in my life
