The first few chapters I was thinking, "this could be good, might be cute," but then as it dragged on it just started to get painful. Takahashi bends over backwards for Sho (Satou the elder) and still hardly gets anywhere, though it's obvious Sho loves him back. It looks like the mangaka threw ex-lover and bookstore boss Abe into the mix as a second love rival (first being younger twin brother) and to add another level of tension, but in my opinion that just made it feel even more hopeless. Hasn't Takahashi already been through and done enough? Hasn't he proved himself? Isn't he a great guy? Why? Why torture the poor soul even more?
I tried looking at the raws (since I can't read them) and it didn't make me feel better. It obviously had a happy ending with Sho and Takahashi together, but I didn't see any indication of the heartfelt love confession from Sho to Takahashi that I feel Takahashi totally deserves. Even translated, I'm afraid the conclusion would fall flat.

Now THAT's what I call a happy ending.
I was a little worried about Aoi's character there for a bit, and how he treated Shouta even after they were together, but looks like true love finally calmed him down.

    It's my favorite ending in maybe any form of media: books, movies, TV. It's the kind of perfect closure you long for and are rarely given in the name of misguided "realism." But those last two chapters send this story into the stratosphere.

So far so good, but does anyone else think that it would be nearly impossible for Kashii to forget a person like Mika? In chapter 1 it seemed plausible, but when the story revisited their past in college, it was like, really? How could Kashii forget how Mika played such an important part in starting his career? If Mika was an unknown from that point on, maybe, but Mika became a famous actor. If I were in Kashii's position, I would have been like, "Hey! That actor guy was the model for my competition in college! He even kissed me once!"

    Haha I thought so too! I thought they met briefly once, got acquainted, and them byeeee, but they spent some time to prepare for the show lol how could he forget :))))

    It says it happened 7 years ago. And personally, I dont remember all the friends I had from that time. What more for Kei, they were only friends for a week then he's off to france. Oh well, he remembers him right away when he think hard right? Its all ok.

    Uhmmm,,,,maybe I'm wrong, but in the latest chapter didn't his coworker said that Kashii got some issues, back when he's in MQ, maybe tha't one of the reason he can't remember mika right away cuz he has some kind of trauma back then#-.-),,,,but Maybe my thoughts is possibly wrong too

I love this mangaka! The plots for her different mangas are so varying, from sweet, to scary, to twisted. Love them!

Lots of sex and curvy butt shots, but not a lot of plot. Everyone fell in love way too easily and it was all about the sex. Which is okay if that's what you're in the mood for.

Haha, Valery only learned "a little" Japanese, but he sure carries on long conversations!
Cute story!

    Pretty sure he was speaking in English.

Gah! That's not an end!

I worry for Akira's boyfriend. Even though Akira didn't screw Natsuki, he didn't seem to have any qualms about getting physical with other guys.

Intersection pretty boy should have gone after the old father, who was unfaithful and hurt a lot of women, and who was the real reason for their suicides.

iamxrae November 22, 2015 6:42 am

This should be a movie.
