Damn. So many think it's weird crying over a butterfly? I've raised butterflies my entire life. Every single year - dozens of them. And aside from being beautiful, living miracles, they hold a deep significance for me. Plenty of times I have cried over butterflies.
In any case, we are all both individual and everything simultaneously. So next time you see a butterfly - remember that it is, in a way, an extension of you.
Anyway...
I wouldn't worry too much about the preview. The previews often seem dramatic, but always get resolved rather quickly.

Hmmmm. Still waiting for the extra(s), but I guess the ending is worth getting through the strangeness of the rest of the story. I'm not exactly thrilled about stories where the plot revolves around a single misunderstanding/insecurity though.
I had high expectations considering this Sensei's other story ("Hashi no XL Saizu") is one of my absolute favorites. So this one was a bit of a let-down.
Also that family was creepy AF. I felt like we just entered some sort of horror sh*t LOL

It was good. Extremely cliché from start to finish, but still good.
HOWEVER...
I've become beyond tired of the extremely common plot-point used in many yaoi stories where one party pushes the other away, discarding their own feelings and making decisions for the other party because they SOMEHOW think that the other would be happier making a family with a wife and kids and having a "normal" and "ideal" life that is acceptable to a large portion of society.
Yes - because forcing a gay man away from his beloved and telling him to live a lie for the rest of his life because "what other people think about you is more important than your own feelings and self worth!" is TOTALLY going to make him happy.
GTF outta here. His ideal life is being authentic with the one he loves, idiot -__- *facepalm*

IKR. Like, what would he do if they really do break up and then afterwards, Takamine-sensei really did find himself a good girl or (because we're talking yaoi) a better man? Or something like that. And I think it would be double the damage if it was a another man cause the point of them breaking up was so that Takamine would have an "ideal happy future" and then, in the end, he still couldn't be "normal". Uwaa, thinking about it now, that would have been really satisfying to read in my opinion. Hehe... I wonder, is there a manga like that somewhere?
P.S.: Sorry for adding on the rant but I totally agree with you.
Oh sh*t. Now they're both in danger O_O
