Exactly!
I felt the same. The side stories for example were basically about sex. I was expecting the families meeting each other, maybe a wedding, but in the end there wasn't much story.
I stopped around Ch. 80 something because it was just getting repetitive
ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ. Guys get horny -> sex, X gets anxious -> sex, IT'S JUST SEX, SEX, SEX. THE WAY THEY COMMUNICATE IN THE BED ISN'T EVEN COMMENDABLE, PAINTER LITERALLY IGNORES PHOTOGRAPHER SO FREAKING MUCH, HE'S NOT LISTENING TO HIM WHEN HE ASK TO STOP OR A MOMENT TO FUCKING BREATH??? I liked Painter more when he was more like a puppy, as each chapter progresses, he's gotten so aggressive that he literally drags the photographer anytime to have sex (at least they both are perverts) and is so anxious that he coerced photographer to live with him. MIND YOU THEY'VE GOTTEN IN CONSTANT CONTACT WITH EACH OTHER FOR LESS THAN A MONTH?? AND THEY'RE ANXIOUS BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT EACH OTHER??? BRUH ALL YOU GUYS DO IS HAVE SEX (which is fair, they're canonically drop dead gorgeous). The progression of his painter's personality is wild and I'd love that to have been explored more though..
I never thought there would be a time when I would say this but here we are. The plot, art style, characters, and depth of it all are honestly very captivating. However, the excess sex scenes just overpower the plot, which is a bummer. The plot is very fast-paced, so you won't get stuck with the feeling of hunger for information, nor will it make you scream at your screen, scolding the characters. There are a lot of anxious, reassurance types of conversations, which is nice because this type of relationship where both of them have separation anxiety isn't very depicted much in the BL community (I could be wrong). One of them is clearly mentally unstable and the other one is spiraling down into unstable territory, this is one of the reasons why I say this story is so captivating but I wish the author focused more on showing the progression of their relationship and how they are individually rather than their progression in the bedroom so often.
