This story got me in my feelings for sure. First off, the uncertainty and self-doubt that both the characters were feeling about their relationship and how others view them, it was really realistic, which made it even more emotional. Second off, I'm so glad they ended up happy with each other until the very end. Lastly, THE LAST CHAPTER WAS SO SWEET YET REMINISCENT AND KINDA HEAVY like I was NOT prepared for that kind of an ending. However, even though it was sad and heavy-hearted, I think it was very refreshing because I've never seen a yaoi ending on that kind of sweet and melancholic tone. Some people are saying that the story would be better without it, however if we didn't have it we wouldn't have known that Akabuchi died 20 years earlier, and that Kikuchi stayed in the same town just to stay near his grave in order to stay beside him; it shows that all of their hardships at the beginning of their journey didn't go to waste and proves that they still loved each other to death even after many years and had overcame whatever problems they had experienced in the future. BUT YALL IT SURELY TOOK ME BY SURPRISE AND I HAD TEARS STREAMING DOWN MY FACE. Now my nose is stuffy T_T
