aki's manga / #shounen ai(2)

why five star? firstly, the artstyle, the author didn't disappoint me even one bit in their artstyle, and i love how they are consistent on colored pages. second is the storyline, i'm a big fan of slow burn but not sooooo slow burn, you know? the author really did great on balancing the plot, not even once i've been stressed out reading it, the author knows when to stop triggering the readers. Third, i love how they also set it close to reality, they showed experiences that actually happens in real life for someone who belongs to lgbtq+. I also love how they portrayed the LGBTQ+ members correctly, in recent BL/GL that i've read there's a lot of misconception for the characters that belongs to LGBTQ+, so it's quite refreshing to see characters properly represents their role, not too small and too feminine for the said "b0tt0m" and not too masculine and big for the "t0p" (i'm sorry, i just hate labeling the characters in soft bls) fourth, they also put great life lessons here though not a lot, but definitely it just proves that the author didn't just focused on the romance, they also showed family topics which is one of the main topics in the story, actually this is perfect as an eye opener, not only for the members of lgbtq+, but also for those parents who struggles in an open communication with their child. fifth, seriously, this is just the over-all satisfaction. from prologue to side-stories, they never failed to keep me reading it, and that's when you know you're reading a great story, because you never got bored or tired reading it. that's all!! ʕ⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴥ⁠ꈍ⁠ʔ

this is definitely cute, one of my favorite bls just because it's cute. it's so cute that I can't even critique it. I would just cute, let it stay as cute. ʕ⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴥ⁠ꈍ⁠ʔ
