Sequel to Kimi no Parade. Did not figure this out to midway through so definately read that first for context. I had already read it but only vaguely remembered, but I felt the whole story was sad. Its a bittersweet story about figuring out feelings in a relationship. Some better communication might have made this less angsty. It had a sweet ending but was sort of a downer.

Hatsukoi No Atosaki

Discovered this again. The way he ended things was really cruel, that he's willing to try again is really something.

Shiro No Koro

A charming story about first loves, at times it's bittersweet,wistful and precious. A lovely tale of a couple that reunites in college and gets a second chance at love. Wonderful storytelling, it's unexpected in such pleasantly surprising manner.

A bittersweet tale, techniquely it's not even a love story really. Though its hinted at that he has feelings, but it's never said. Well, that's how these things work sometimes, thats life for ya.

Daidai no Recipe

Complete | Yasuei | 2015 released

Hmm, the art was amazing! They way the panels flowed and sensei’s style, incredibly charming and wonderful. The story was oof, it was kind of like they were cursed. I feel so sad for that sensei, i hope he finds someone who can truly treasure him. These two...it was definitely a bitter orange jam. With a sweet end, but a very difficult bitter journey.
