chcz's manga / #slice of life(7)

This is hilarious! According to spoiler, he kidnapped her - which makes me rethink everything.

This manga was a perfect mix of fluff, hope, and grief (without overwhelming the sweet plot). The ending was wonderful, I wish we got to see the couple spend some more time by themselves, but tans is so cute. The artwork was so good! Especially how subtle the emotions were on Mirouno’s face in the first few chapters. It was so clear to me that he was already in love with Yutaka, but it wasn’t overwhelming. Dad was also a wonderful character! . . . I cried so much when Yutaka asks otousan about how he overcame the loss of his wife and the dad says that he didn’t, rather the pain is proof that he loves his wife so he is happy to experience it. so beautiful and sad! I didn’t expect the story line to get so deep! What make me really admire Yutaka (who honestly can be seen as a weak character somet8mea) is that hearing the dad’s advice made him decide to hold onto what he has now and move in with the family. I was so proud!

This was so cute and fluffy. Thank you for being clear in what “like” means. - I loved the lovely way the story approaches falling in love again. Koutaru was encouraged to love again by Aki, who herself was a widower. - I loved the line where the manager, Itou, tells Koutaru “if Aki was here I would tell her I love Kourtaru who has always loved Aki.” Because it acknowledges the impact other people and lovers have had on us. It was Aki who helped make Koutaru into the man who Itou loves and he has no need to feel jealousy over it, instead he is grateful and loves her for it. - instead of feeling resentment to Aki or attempting to fill her place, he only feels sadness at the thought of her not being there. - Satou is such an interesting character who seems to have been adopted into this little family. I can’t help but wonder if he is an ace character.

This was so cute! I cried when Waki gave his speech and just wanted to eat Kami’s food. And again when Kami’s mom was supportive!!! Yay!

ALL TIME FAVORITE. This couple is just so cute.

This was cute...but in my head it was a yaoi, I’m sorry.
