galomisimi's manga / #childhood friends(4)

hm, it’s sweet, almost comforting. Everything felt kinda hasted, the angst lasted for like 2 seconds before everything kinda figured itself out. I did like how he actually ended up publishing a book about their relationship, thought that was cool. It was alright though, nothing super special or unique about this story though, very basic. Well except for the part where they ended up growing old, you don’t see that a lot, also their relationship was cute!

i’m really looking forward to reading the sequel! i think i was too excited i began to skip some parts. In general, this was alright, it isn’t anything amazing or special in particular but I did like these characters, and it did fall just a little flat, but i appreciated the one lesbian girl that taught him to appreciate gays.

This felt slightly off and even weird to me because then keeping their relationship a secret from his sister and mom made it feel incest or something forbidden when they’re just friends. And sequel doesn’t really add much in terms of character development, just chi(?) being jealous and in the end—he doesn’t really even talk about it because kiego already knew and rejected the other guy? Yeah so not much but it was nice seeing them a little longer, wish there was more tension or ‘drama’ but for a slice of life it was decent.

At first I thought it was moving too fast but that’s because of unrequited love, argh! Kidding I love the drama. Part of me wishes he ended up with the teacher but that’s just because I also had a crush on one my teachers my junior year, but that was too far. From his pov, I would’ve felt the same, I feel sick and I understand why he wants to keep his distance, I would to, but he also seeks that comfort that his friend provides. I’m just glad it’s not me in his shoes.
