Despite my beef with the goatee (I just used my thumb to cover it), this was very sweet and they're both so beautiful even if they're also incredibly stupid. I think Shida is such a lovely character. I love bright, friendly people who are so warm hearted. The way he held Igarashi and doted on him in the last chapter was adorable.
But idk.... The passage of time is wild in this. I could understand reuniting after all those years and finding your heart still loves that person, even if 8 is a bit of a stretch. Unrequited love can be a chronic condition for some people, especially people who rarely open their hearts, so letting Shida in meant he couldn't let him out. That's fine, that's all understandable. But like other people have pointed out... How do you sleep with someone for MULTIPLE YEARS and not reach some sort of mutual understanding of your feelings? The amount of self denial it requires is insane. Did y'all never once talk about... Anything? It was YEARS, man. Not even a "what are we?" until you were that far into it? I cannot suspend my disbelief enough for that. Sometimes things happen too fast in stories, so the story time is extremely rushed, but the story time in this is extremely long and that's odd for a romance?? Like I said, the passage of time is strange in this but whatever lol
