Toumei na Ai no Utsuwa
They're so tender, warm, and soft Everything about this is so beautiful. The art, the characters, the concept, and the dialogues. The author must be a poet by how beautifully they have woven every single line in this manga. Everything is so smooth and soft that the words interweave with one another. This a is such a heartfelt and touching story. I'm so incredibly happy to have come across this beautiful manga. I hope to find more of these.

So beautiful!!! So, katsumi rejected his best friend, Maki's, confession by saying "disgusting" to hide his internal homophobia. Despite liking the guy, he said that word with the fear of the consequences of his feelings sabotaging his life goals. Because of this, he tried to atone for what he did by feeding his guilt with self-loathing through rape and violence. He thought he deserved all those things for hurting his best friend. However, reuniting with his old friend, proved him otherwise. It's such a beautiful manga that realistically portrays the actions and aftermath of self-harm to a person. It's also great how it shows the realistic effect of their relationship. It's great that now, katsumi has someone he can rely on. He's finally moving forward and working on loving himself. It takes process and steady tread to fully heal emotionally, so it's great that it fully encaptulates that and did not show that katsumi healed just like a flip of a switch just because he now has a lover. Having a lover does not resolve everything, rather, having a healthy and stable support and relationship with other people is one step into being better. It's so wonderful to see that on this story. I love them so much!!♡♡♡
