I guess this ending was fine. At least, it was the most believable (aside from Shou actually not caring about his abuser anymore, but this is manga so that wasn't going to happen lol).
I don't know how I feel though. I mean, a part of me feels like it wasn't worth the reading because at the end it was just as Fuku said; back to square one -_-. However, it was still a very interesting story, but this was definitely not what I was expecting when I started reading it. I know this is Harada's style, but previous works that I read were not as crazy as this haha.
Anyway, Fuku is crazy and Shou is mind-fucked .-. but let's hope that in that messed up relationship they both will find some sort of happiness(?)
I love this story. The characters are believable and the story is great, yet simple. I hope the updates keep going TT
I really wish for someone to pick this up because it is so good :'c if someone has a source to check out the raws please comment it!
This is so stressful. I hope Yuyang properly apologizes to Lihuan because, regardless of his own issues, he has been nothing but a sweet kid.
Yuyang, my sweet boy, you can't jump to conclusions so fast, espcially when the other person has shown you that he would never do such a thing. Like, who could care less about those guys that Lihuan? Lol he literally barely talks to anyone uwu
I hope this misunderstanding doesn't drag for too long because it's ridiculous.
Why would he apologize to LiHuan? He did nothing wrong!
From my point of view, blocking him and ignoring him IS wrong. I get that Yuyang was shocked because of his own misconceptions, but still, he should talk to him instead of blocking him, specially when Lihuan opened up to him (at least a bit) :(.
I love Yuyang, but he's a bit to impulsive on his decisions.
too*
He wasn't merely shocked; he was rightfully angry. they were bashing him because of his sexuality. honestly, I love how non-dramatic YY is. Instead of raising up a stink and fighting/yelling, he just blocks them all and moves on. He did NOTHING wrong. He protected himself as he should. It's LiHuan's turn to pursue YY as a friend.
Lihuan did not participate in any of that. He wasn't even in the dressing rooms, he was still swimming and he was underwater, that's why Yuyang didn't see him at the pool. I agree with you that Yuyang is very cool about it, not falling for their tricks, but he did jump to conclusions too fast about Lihuan just because he saw then leavingthe building together (by chance).
Them*
Oh, and I also agree that Lihuan needs to pursue YY. He needs to show more interest, but still feel YY has to apologize when they sort the misunderstanding out.
People apologize when they've done something wrong. YuYang has done nothing wrong. Neither has LiHuan of course but YY does not know this. He chose to not make a big deal out of this and just blocked him. It's a very reasonable thing to do. LiHuan doesn't have to apologize either but if he cares about this friendship he'll have to reach out first since he was the one that was blocked.
I guess we are gonna have to agree to disagree haha I just hope this doesn't drag on for too many chapters =_=
I get that this was licensed in English, but please translate the last 3 chapters you guys :'D I don't think it'll make the difference at this point lol
Also, I re-read this cause I totally forgot Taichi's rape scene and I gotta say this would be a 5 stars if it weren't for that. I blame it solely on the author because it isn't even consistent with the character. Taichi is sweet and is deeply in love with Naoto, so that scene was really out of character. I HATE when authors throw rape in like it's the most normal thing ever.
Other than that I really love this author :'D
LOVED IT! Definitely one of mi favorites of all time. I'll be looking forward to the honeymoon arc ♡
Why is it marked as completed? there's still volume 2, right?
THIS IS SO GOOD. All the characters are so interesting, complex and consistent. I really hope we get to see a happy ending. The level of angst reading it deserves it ;; Also, plenty of sad pasts/presents to also get sad endings.
Can someone fill me in on the continuity of this? Up until what chapter is it out in Japan? How often do we get updates?
Thanks!
Volume 11 is out in Japan and it came out in March. The volume won't come out in English until August. Usually we get updates in volumes and it's a lot of chapters at once with long gaps inbetween.
Is this manga still ongoing?
Does the anime adapt this manga well or did it do its own thing? (if it did adapt it well, from which ch. until which?
Thanks a lot to whoever answers me!
So far I've only seen the first two episodes. And it looks like they combined this one and the other one together. Except for a few minor details it's been like reading the manga all over again just moving pictures lol ╮(￣▽￣)╭ I'll update you more as I watch or let me know if you watch
Thanks a lot!
You're welcome lol I've also noticed that because I read the manga before watching the anime, I'm like hurry up and have stuff happen already. Like I want to rush thru lol since I technically know what's gonaa happen
The thing is... the anime was further than the translated manga. I already saw what will be in the next chapters. But i think a few scenes were changed.
It's a good adaption. Biggest changes: hair colour variation & PG-ified [like most modern BL anime]. Definitely worth the watch. Quick and sweet could finish it in 1 day.
Just came here to read it again while listening to the drama cd :'D
Also, still waiting for updates ;;
