This is one of my faves and I've read it like 10 times. I
As much as I would rather see Take x Mine as the focus since their physical chemistry and sexual tension is better, if Hiroi were to be removed, there would be no Take x Mine. They're definitely not a stand alone. Totally agree!
I'll just never understand Take. I mean, how can he ever be happy in a relationship like this, in which hell never be loved equally by Mine, with Hiroi always being Mine's priority? By the end I think things got better but... IDK. I mean, let's say for some reason Hiroi decided to break up with Mine. I'm pretty sure everything between Mine and Take would be over then, since everything they have seem to be based on Hiroi's existence.
Now, if Hiroi told Mine he doesn't want to share him with Take anymore, I can see Mine being okay with it. I mean, he'd maybe be upset for a while, but he'd never leave Hiroi over Take. I just feel like Take will always be the more neglected emotionally in the relationship they have, that's one of the reasons this manga -- through beautifully written -- could neve really appeal to me.
