I really like Itaya, he's one of those characters that you wouldn't expect to be smart, based from a few scenes of him, he seems to be the calculating type too.
Now it's either sloppy translating, or just sloppy storytelling. I'm betting it's the latter.
I mean this sort of angle in storytelling has been tackled before, yes. But this right after a mediocre ending to the main problem of the story made the whole manga turn to shit. My guess is that the woman's sick, and that she was never actually under his curse's spell. Then shit hits the fan again, then finally the main love interest saves the day. Might go another way, but I'm sure it'll be along these lines.
So much potential, but it obviously didn't live up to it.
I do hope I'm wrong.
It's a decent manga, but in terms of Hashimito Aoi's works, this is by far her worst. Doesn't mean it's bad though. It's just not as good as her past works which involves more poetic lines, and sheer emotions. :<
Forgot to add that the rating is subject to change considering the state of the manga (incomplete)
I agree. I think it may be due to the fact that it's one of her older works... 2011, it looks like? You can definitely see how much she's improved.
This is still decent for me though. Noru ka Soru ka is far worst than this one.
I feel ya.
I'm having trouble following the story. Idk why tho. Maybe the flow of the plot is off or just plain boring.
I didn't notice that! You're right, maybe that is the case. Thanks for pointing it out
Funny fact is that her worse work is way better than many yaoi mangas out there...that is what a talented mangaka is all about!
That's a fucking bad ending.
The art's great, the plot's great. Heck not having any sex scene is not even an issue at this point. The delivery of the ending, THE ENDING ITSELF, is just... disappointing. Bad feels like an understatement so I'm going for what it made me feel.

The last scene where the girl was shown crying with acceptance, and almost joy--is now one of my all time favorite bl manga scenes.
Almost all the comments here about the raws? Like wtf, can't you guys find another place to talk about shit that counts as spoilers? Comments usually coincide with the latest chapter, NOT with the raws you douchebags have read.
Get over it
Yup. Pretty disappointed in the number of people who aren't tagging their spoilers as such. Unfortunately the comments section is populated with a lot of assholes who have made it their business to argue about which character is a bigger asshole each week, and how unrealistic and predictable those assholes are... while being predictable assholes who can't even navigate a comments section without being selfish, let alone a relationship. Pfft.
With the story being 2 whole chapters behind in translations, it means we're going to see this until it's over, especially now that it's hit an important climax. Navigate with caution. It tends to level out after the initial release if only because we can't argue too in depth about a chapter still in Korean. Anyway I get what you're saying.
This is one of those mangas that even though you already have access to raws, you just can't make yourself read them because it's that good!!! You have to understand it. Wahhh The dialogues, the story, the setting, the pace, the art style!!! It's been so long since I last got this absorbed in a manga.
A TIMESKIP!? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS JUST MEANS MY HEART'S GONNA GET SHRED INTO PIECES.
It has a wonderful story I KNOW. BUT IT'S POORLY DELIVERED. I honestly don't care if this ends up as yaoi or not. Fact is, the whole flow is messy as fuck. I don't know why this happened but reading it is too frustrating. I want to know what will happen to them but I'm done.
