uhhh. hmm. i made it to the end of S1 before i skipped to the end and i'm noping out. the art is good but the buildup in the first season and the pacing is...so fucking weird. like i was just uncomfortable and the characters feel incredibly flat, i'm not feeling any connection at all with them. it feels like their personalities are "cute" and "eyeroll." and judging by the context clues at the end I just skipped a whole bunch of drama for no reason and nothing much really changed. really, you're gonna write 80+ chapters and have the characters end up nearly exactly the same as how they started out? i skimmed the side stories and it seems like things are finally changing to some degree but i just don't care enough to read all of that to get there lol I don't think it's -bad- but there's just something off about it. it gave me not-as-good Gold Palace/Pizza Boy vibes I gotta say tho the scene that put me off the most was their first time having sex. the entire scene was so incredibly uncomfortable but the fact that the younger guy just dove into french kissing someone with a stranger's pussy juice still on his lips, that was really the uncomfortable cherry on top of the uncomfortable cake. if the author intended to start them off on all the wrong feet, well, they certainly succeeded, it's just too bad it dragged on for so long that I couldn't even make it to whatever the point was.
