my feelings for this story is half half. I like it, the slow, excruciating pain, exciting, burning passion for love. The story clearly depicts how love should be during middle/high school. Messy, full of mistakes, forgiveness, exciting, painful, regrets, doubts, one sided feelings, and so on.
I like how love was not shown as something easy to throw or obtain. I love how it made all the characters realize that love is flawed and not forever.
I would like to share my take on each character personality, Let me first start with our cutesy FL, Ninako. Her point of view clearly shows how a first love goes for a middle/high school student. There were times where you will think that you are doing the right thing, when in fact you are not. And that's fine because you are learning. It was not her fault that Ren fell in love with her. She clearly tried to wish for Mayuka and Ren to patch things up in their relationship because she didn't want Ren (also Mayuka) to feel hurt/sad.
Secondly, Ren. Reading some of the comments blaming Ren. I do kind of get your side but I would also like to share something. The reason why Ren was mostly hate by some of the readers was because he cannot draw lines/boundaries with Ninako considering he was with Mayuka that time, and the Fact that he also didn't said anything to Mayuka about Ninako confessing to him. I think the reason why Ren is like that was because he would "like" to appear more mature/dependable to Mayuka. As Mayuka constantly depends on him. Seeing Mayuka happy and depending on him must've made Ren thought that he was doing the right way of taking care of her girlfriend. For those who keep commenting that Ren didn't love Mayuka and only stayed with her because of his promise. Remember that he loved Mayuka enough for him to suppress himself for being childish because he didn't want to burden his girlfriend.
