Azu's manga / #Shounen Ai(25)

Very cute read I read like basically all of it except like two parts pertaining to Nao’s childhood. When I do a reread I’ll finally read those parts. Other than that, I read everything else and it was heartwarming. Hiro (baby) is sooo cute I can’t!! Also how the story talks about real world problems and social issues MUAHH chef’s kiss

I would say it’s more like a 4.5. The .5 I marked off is because I don’t like miscommunication tropes and yes the story was very cute BUT I did feel like Minato was a bit too forward which I don’t have a problem with. And yeah that was the driving force that he can’t express himself well but he was gunho even though he hasn’t seen Wataru in like 3 years. Either way really good story the romance was sweet but the miscommunication was boooo and even w what I said abt Minato he was still a nice character. Don’t get me wrong Wataru was annoying too but for reasonable reasons ofc not to say Minato’s reasoning wwasnt reasonable too but yk. Either way really good story this author does such a good job at making emotions in their manga so tangible WOW!

This was a super cute read and I’m glad I stayed for the ride because initially I wasn’t gonna continue this read because the art but then I kept scrolling and scrolling and was entranced by the plot. The characters really feel real and it was sweet seeing Hanamaru grow as a person and find himself truly. So sweet!! Slice of life w romance is def the best!! The ML Tonuska (I think that was his name lol some like that) was also sweet too and he had his own arc too. I like how the author dealt w the romance it was very tasteful and it was the right pace. You’d think you’d be ripping your hair out because the first half of the story is abt his unrequited love but it’s done so well you’re js rooting for him the whole way!! Especially because not only do we see him (Hanamaru) tackle being in love for the first time we see how through this first time feeling, he’s also seeing himself change for the better. Chef’s kiss love this story

A really good BL. I see that when a romance story is also a slice of life it elevates the plot like wow. Such a good read and I love the sequel too!! The author did such a good job bringing these characters to life and making them and the problems they faced realistic. Js beautiful imo

The sequel is also sooo good. It’s more angsty and it make sense because now they’ve been in their relationship for years and they’re facing the problems that come w that especially as a gay couple. Author again did such a good job making the MCs emotions tangible. A really good story
