Super Lovers has had a lot of potential these past few years that I've followed it. Although it's to the frustration of many that the main pair has not yet consummated, Abe Miyuki is famous for being very ambiguous and drawing out every detail for as long as she can. The characters seem very real, and at one point this was my favorite BL manga. But as time goes on, the story still remains episodic in nature, with little romance thrown in just as a way to keep the readers hanging on, it seems. And before completing the current pairing, we shift gears to other characters' relationships. The direction of the story right now seems a bit hazy, but it is still exceptional compared to most yaoi manga. That is, it does make genuine attempts to deal with deep concepts and really genuinely depict the warmth of a family and the delicacy of raising a child and cultivating love.
