I also agree with this!! Although I feel like it’s a good change, I’m usually used to stories with a lot going on but this is also nice! It feels like I’m simply reading the everyday life of someone and accompanying them along their journey :D hm I don’t know how to word it properly but while in other comics the fiction is obviously present, this one feels like something that could actually happen in real life, i think that’s why it’s odd, it’s also not too overwhelming but still interesting in its own way! And the warm romance part, i believe it’s because Satomi doesn’t really display a lot of emotion after growing up. You can tell by his lack of interest on a lot of things and the fact he keeps a serious face most of the time. I like to think that he’s getting used to the feeling first, that’s why the lack of “warmth”, if this is really going the BL route I feel like he’ll start to display more expressions later on when the feelings intensify. ^^ Plus we can’t be sure whether he really likes Kyouji or not because maybe he just said that so his friends would drop the topic.
Oh wait please ignore the last part! I forgot he repeated it in his head after! So it’s confirmed!
Same! The pace of this story is a lot more realistic, very much captures the real life feeling of distance. The odd encounters of the manga artist, the part-time job and lying on the floor all seem life how we all live life. The lack of warmth I feel keeps us engaged too, perhaps it’s just a way to show that this feeling is new to Satomi. I’m interested to see where it goes too especially after the recent development of him realising he actually likes him.
No worries!! It was nice talking with you (▰˘◡˘▰)
This whole story has this lingering eerie feeling, there’s a lack of warm romance so it’s odd. It’s interesting though I’m enjoying it (?)
