Had to give this one the dreaded 4 star rating because, personally, I'm not a fan of the "we both have feelings for each other but neither of us will say anything about it and continue to hurt each other" cliché. It's so overused and it's so hard to make a good, original story when that trope is the premise of the plot. Not to say that the read was boring, just predictable. I would love to see where they end up in the future, I know this particular author has a thing for tragic endings though so I should be a little relieved that their future is basically left up to the readers. I've read nearly all of the Mangas by this author available to me and they are easily a favorite of mine, the stories are always pleasant to read, the characters are cute, and the artwork is absolutely amazing, so coming from a biased standpoint, this story- even with the cliché- is still well written. I love all the tiny little twists the author puts in their work, it always has me going back to reread it when I've reached the end just so it gives me a different perspective. As always, beautiful work.
