Right?! I thought the exact samething when I first ished reading it. It has all the elements that are usually in my favorite mango but I felt something was definitely off.
I was trying to hit the like button and hit the dislike by mistake! Gomen. I agree I feel it could have developed more. I also expected more of their relationship like whats going to happen when he gets older.
Don't sweat it. I've had worse things done. LOL I felt the same. Aside from the "biting" teaser, we're left with little clue as to how their future progresses. I'd have also like to see more of that.
The art is clean and beautiful and the premise of the story is touching. However, there is little chemistry between the protagonists and the dialogue and exposition are so scant that it's hard, as a reader to connect with the protagonists. Raine was easier to relate to because the story is told from his perspective. Joel, the one character with whom the reader needs to sympathize, barely speaks five lines in two chapters. He moves from cute child to hot hunk who is ready to smex Raine in the span of a page with no inner monologue or exposition about how or what he is thinking or feeling. This left me with a lackluster feeling about the entire story. There is much potential in this new mangaka. I'm genuinely looking forward to seeing how they grow and evolve.
