RoseMary's manga / #Androgyny(131)

️This is like the best kind of story for me, because it has all the elements that I love the most! First of all, because it's an old manga and that art style and general atmosphere never fail to make me so nostalgic. Then, it's a school life / youth story and it even includes BL! So, I totally love it...I wish there were more like this! > Too bad that it leaves us with that bittersweet, kinda suspending ending...it's like it brusquely came to an end soon after Okamoto says "that kind of relationship where feelings won't go further". That sentence sure hit hard, and poor Koizumi secretly shedding a tear...But just like Koizumi muttered to himself, let's hope that such feelings may change in the future! After all, Okamoto is not completely indifferent towards him and also he may need time to think seriously about the possibility of liking a guy and come to terms with that. And they will see together where their relationship of friendship, maybe something more, will lead them. In fact, while the manga ended, their story continued on. That's why I felt this was like a point of beginning, in a way, and it makes me wonder how things went between them then. I wish the author continued it, maybe setting it even after a few years when they were uni students or something...Anyway, while it was bittersweet, I really liked this manga!️

Unique story, the general idea was interesting! I must say that in actuality I honestly didn't care about all the cases they investigated, so it was boring for me to read those parts. At some point, I went through those pages quickly. But, apart from that, which also depends on one's personal tastes, it's a well-done nice and fun reading. Especially the characters were charming. I really liked Chiaki and Natsuki! I liked them together. I actually always like sensei's characters: I like the way she draws them, their personalities and behaviours...they never fail to fascinate me! In this story, I really liked this type of couple, which was also kinda unique I'd say, and that's definitely what made me read till the end! Their romance seemed marginal, and it really wasn't the focus of the story, but it slowly evolved and the ending was really nice! For the characters and their relationship, I'd have given it 4 stars!

[Baka-Updates] Several thousands of years from now, there exists the Joker Galaxy of five Star Systems, where a long, long war is being fought. The god of light, Amaterasu, is trying to unite the galaxy under his rule. The fighting stands between giant mecha called Mortar Headds, their pilots, the Headdliners, trained since birth for their task, and the female humanlike computers called Fatimas, necessary for controlling the MH. Many are the lives and destinies found throughout the more than thousand year long era of war, although Amaterasu seems to live through it all.
