pinkstarred's manga / #unrequited love(155)

Ah, that ended so well. I'm so glad they could properly convey their feelings. UwU

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.

I loved the pure love of the main story. Seeing them fall for eachother was so heartwarming.

Such a tsundere! It turned out quite cute. Ryuuji was so sweet and really cherished him.

Awww...I'm glad he found someone to treasure him. How sweet.

I effing love the art! It's Sooo good. The story is good, and sorta suspenseful what will happen? Man violence is scary, Mio get away from that horrible guy. He's wrong, Shino will comfort you and wants to understand you better. Also, this is hot stuff, really wish it weren't censored, it's so pointless in an ero manga. Come on, it's not like we don't see what's going on just because the dicks are invisible.

What a wonderful love story. A tinge of sadness but a good telling of longing.

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.

Feelings are realized and changed over time. I'm glad for their happily ever after. Rediscovered, I had forgotten abou this one.

I love confident powere uke's. Chap22 The story was dumb af, the whole premise. Smh. I get insecurity but it's simply not a good story or interesting.
