The Fragrant Flower Blooms With Dignity
Hatsukoi wa natsukanai
I really love characters like Satoru. He's so emotionally mature and straight forward, and even though there were some times he reacted in a flash and did things he regretted, he's able to talk to himself and realize the issues of his reactions, which I LOVE. I also adore how he talks about things straight away and basically doesn't allow misunderstandings. As for Manato, my baby boy, I love how brave he is. He's traumatized and uncertain and very timid when it comes to true love, and he finds it difficult to be vulnerable and open his heart up to someone due to the influence of his (shitty ass pick me) mom, but he is so brave and his love for Satoru really helped him speak out about his feelings and share a very raw wound of his to Satoru, who is literally the perfect partner for him. They have such a healthy relationship and great communication with each other pretty much from the get-go, and I adore that so much. 10/10 always and forever. Wish we could get more chaps of them post-story being the power couple and lovey dovey couple we know they are.
