All I can say is that, without a doubt they are extremely special and irreplaceable people to each other
....
I don't want to throw hints at how the story ends but (If my memory serves me correctly) that is where it is reveled how one character truly felt about the other. And the story is not about romance so things do not get romantic. I pray that is not a spoiler. Gomenasai (/TДT)/

Thanks a lot for the reply! I'll be buying it as soon as I get the chance! It seems I have to get my tissues ready as well but I'm mentally prepared now! I hope they both love each other but I appreciate beautiful friendships blossoming with a hint of 'bromancesque' skinship every now and then even if it doesn't transcend friendship! (⌒▽⌒)
... I'd like to know something before I start reading it... Are the two main guys in love? I've just started watching the anime that's currently airing and it seems to me there's something special going on--- Can I allow myself to get my hopes up or is it just an ... ambiguous friendship between two guys who happen to share a deep emotional connection?
Some people have referred to it is a "subtle romance" while others (primarily men) have stated that it's JUST a deep friendship.
I'd really appreciate it if someone could answer my question without spoiling too much! I have, unfortunately, read a bunch of spoilers already but I'd like to think that reading it myself would still be a unique experience. ^^
