I totally loved this story with the tsundere seme Shusaku and his optimistic lover Haruna ️ I have never read a story with such a serious man as a love interest. There was something rather culturally authentic about Shu which I really appreciated and which sparked so nicely against Haruna’s western influence. I also loved how Haruna never held onto anger and how he was so good at getting along with the grandfather and sister. Beautiful art too, and plenty of time developing the characters so that their love resonated as true. Those little smiles from Shu as he watched Haruna were particularly heart warming.
