yokocchi_'s manga / #romance(42)

When I started reading I was prepared for the worst from how people have said they cried from this, I'm so glad it wasn't the bad kind of crying. This story is precious, the way it is told with the boy reading the diary is so interesting. I cried happy tears in the end, I hope they slowly worked out their relationship again and grew old together

I had just read Dear Gene and omg!! This is the story about the rappearing background character Oz!!! Dear Gene was drawn after this manga but it takes place before it, in the 70s. So I guess this is a sequel in the same universe since Theo comes from the same village as Gene (Jean? The spelling is different here). And wow, it's another really good story, it has a lot of clichee but i loved indulging in the pure romance of them. Sometimes I miss the amounr of love emanating from this pair in other BLs. I'm a sucker for happy romance but it needs it's conflicts of course and they were really well executed here. I'd love to see this as a movie or even an anime but society at large isn't ready for this it seems.
