just_m3h's manga / #kindergarten(2)

Hmm. Honestly, Kei definitely blackmailed him into sex. There's no going around it. Just because they met on a gay hookup app does not mean Shoichi is down for it everytime. His 'no' is still no. Sure, Shoichi wasn't really being pressured with anything concrete but a rumour, but it's not right, there's no gray area. Kei... he tries so hard to redeem himself afterwards. Apologises, stands up for him, does so much for him, doesn't get cowed in the face of his insecurities, fights tooth and nail for him, fucking marries him. But it is what it is. Kei metamorphoses into one of the best semes I have ever read (so goddamn tender, the way he gently bosses him around and calls him a 'good boy' during sex, I could melt) but this will always be how it started. That makes me so sad, honestly. 4.4 Extra is about Kei's nephew and the loud kid from kindergarten. Unexpected uke, for sure!! Would have been cute, why did the author go the step sibling route and not the childhood friends route?? 4.2

Ren was unsuccessful as a musician, so he returns, however despairingly, to inherit his father's kindergarten, only to contend with the seemingly uptight and disapproving Kiichi. They were cute together, and iverall, the story was simple, straightforward and unproblematic. 4.45
