Sayonara no Moment
Sad/bittersweet, with a satisfying ending The art is nice and the author did well with foreshadowing some things and tying it all together neatly. Some things are a bit “quick” but it’s done well to fit a 5 chapter story. The characters are well done for such a short story, they feel very real and we got to know each of them just the right amount. The age gap is disappointing, although at least Tsukasa does graduate (18yo) and mature a bit before any feelings are reciprocated. However Haru & Shunya contrast with him noticeably being more mature and at different places in their lives than him. I wish he could have been in college at least. While some comments dislike that Haru “moved on” and fell for Tsukasa in a few months - living together + their shared supernatural experience and getting to actually talk with Shunya and say goodbye contribute a lot to this. Plus it’s clear the two of them still remember and love/care for Shunya.

07/19/2024 The synopsis and rating aren't making this an urgent TBR - But I really enjoyed the authors other work "When Satou-Kun Died" so I'm curious about what else they've written.
