pinkstarred's manga / #Sweet(528)

This was just so amazing. What a great story that was sad,happy and even scary. It touched on so many heavy topics in an approachable way. The art was amazing and just so so so cute! Oh and the chibi's are too charming for words.

Seeing the struggles of Yuuta was so heartbreaking, the crushing feeling of staying silent and pretending to be okay for all those years. Desperately wanting to keep his family happy and struggling with his feelings and hating himself for them. I really love this type of story. The only thing to send this manga over the top would be the stepbrothers point of view. In the end, you hear how he really felt, but it's so disconnected and expected. *I wish we could of gotton a chapter from his point view at pinnacle moments during the story and you see his real thoughts and feelings. Also it must be said that these guys are gorgeous! The art is so polished and on point, it's almost too perfect. But, Damn son those bishi's are fine. ( *｀ω´) Best Oniicchan award definately goes to Ryuu, he actually acts like a responsible caring big bro. Although at the end that sorta fell apart, but excluding that one scene it was completely platonic. This a really good telling of this often seen trope. Props to sensei for making it consensual and waiting untill college. Could of easily gone the hook up in highschool route. * I was thinking on this, but I wonder if we had seen Ryuu's perspective if it would of changed the narrative? Seeing Ryuu's initial attraction for Yuuto, would that have turned the story into something darker and creepier? I think it can be done, just not sure how. Maybe showing why he fell for him keeping it more innocent and pure.

Another great story from Ichikawa sensei. Falling in love with a stranger you see on the train.

I love the innocence of pure love. （＾ν＾）

Bittersweet moments begin this sweet slow paced love story.

That was really interesting. What an unique concept to ponder. Quite complicated if you try to think of it in real terms. It actually broaches a lot deep concepts. All types of pairings and totally original plot. It was delightful and cute.

Cute overload! This is one of sweetest fluffieiest slice of life stories ever. I absolutely love it! (￣▽￣)

What starts off as just lewd hookups turns into quite a sweet relationship if not possessive. Not a big fan of the overworked clothes, all those drapes just make the suits so baggy and messy. A big pet peeve of mine. Gods has this was cute. They really fell for each other and are really madly in love. It was really lovely dovey seeing their relationship grow. UwU

Nothing melts the heart quite like a bad boy being all sweet and honest.

The end was so damn sweet! Quite adorable lovey dovey moments.
