I totally get the story. Our main character wanted to have sex - he wasn't actually READY to have sex yet but he was fantasizing about it. I think everyone has had a crush on someone they never in a million years would expect to return the feelings. But THE WAY the feelings were returned is the problem. Instead of actually "confessing" to each other and maybe pursuing him (go on a real date, have a conversation or give him flowers). The object of his affection rapes him. That's totally no bueno. In most of the mangas I've read - rape plots tend to evolve into some type of romantic relationship right away but I like the fact that this one is a bit different. Our main character decided to remove himself from a toxic situation and grow up a little bit. I think the next chapter he'll be able to sort through his feelings about what happened and be stronger. I hope Emoto gets run over by a golden truck.
This started out with so much promise. It had interesting characters, I can relate to the storyline and it deviates from the typical rom/com yaoi lackluster plot. Then halfway through it got stale...the constant miscommunications, the everchanging cast of characters and the same ho-hum situations over and over...I hate to say it but the relationship is not progressing at all really - like I don't expect them to suddenly have sex or anything ridiculous but they should have figured something out by now after all that damn confessing...I feel a bit guilty for skipping panels where Kouhei and Taichi were not together but I really don't care what the minor characters are doing...LIKE get to the meat and potatoes of the story already.
I'll keep reading because I feel in love with it but I'm not suffering through another chapter with random conversations. I'm going to be speed reading and looking for interesting developments only. Sorry Scanlation group - we appreciate your hard work but damn...
I totally get you. I was saying the same thing to my friend not so long ago. I really liked how it started, it wasn't like most yaoi, the story was really great and cute an touching, but now I grew tired. The cliché are all over the place, the minor characters have too much time and it's just to add to the misunderstanding and poor communication between the MC's. In France, the fourth volume is coming out in July, my friend i going to buy it and I'm going to ask her if there is some kind of evolution, because I don't want to buy something that will let me down.
Hopefully we'll get something substantial and engaging! I have my fingers crossed for good luck!
