but the art is so good & the story is interesting. Overall a good read & not as extreme as I feared
Honestly can't believe this is ending but it's one of the very few mangas that has kept my interest over so many years! The plot is super unique & all the characters are well-developed and captivating as individuals & in their dynamics with other people. And the chemistry & romance - a timeless love that overcomes so many difficulties! <3 <3
but all the stories of the people in their lives are so touching and relatable <3
It was heavier than I expected & showed the harsh realities of life with his debt, the porn industry, and living as a gay man w/societal pressures. Points for realism even if it made it painful & frustrating at points. But their relationship & chemistry was really good & I'm glad they got their happy ending
But mainly fuck that rapist & his weird incestuous bullshit. I hope he suffers until he dies
this is funny so far & the story is super interesting lol. can't wait for more!
First Kaoru's deadbeat leech of a mom abandoning him except to extort him for $ who has her bfs threaten to assault him?? If anyone has a parent like this I beg them to cut them off even if it's painful
And Toma's parents suck too. "We never smiled at you or gave you any affection and threatened you with shaming the family your whole life...but 10 years after you left we're starting to think maybe we were wrong boohoo" like f*ck off
Kaoru is an asshole & it's very dubious consent...but I'll give it a pass bc he actually has substance as a character & his own trauma. It was nice to see their growth as individuals & a couple and they just become super sweet by the end ┗( T﹏T )┛and grandpa is the best!
the art is peak & the story is so good - I could read 100 chapters of them helping ghosts (& being stupid in love)
why is this adult pursuing a high-schooler? (was Setsu's first love w/age gap supposed to make it seem normal?) Tsuruga is such a great character & could have had a much better arc! (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ super rushed & clunky (sorry I'm laughing at an adult man telling his new highschooler boyfriend that he's going to be his last love after a couple months)
the father's story was sad but it was like the author kept piling on so his case was watertight lol - the brain tumor, then the coma, then the memory loss, then only remembering his son last year. Can happen in real life but I was just like - ok we get it he's not a bad guy!
(/TДT)/ so cute but I need to see more! I really hope this isn't the end & we at least get some extras showing them
but I really hate when it's just like 10 chin hairs lol. I'm sure it's time consuming to draw but I'd rather full beard or stubble
Overall a good read! Funny, sweet, sexy, interesting plot, good art...but the misunderstandings just kept coming & their communication was like pulling teeth. It took like 90(?) chapters for a confession & even then it didn't go smoothly (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜 glad I read it but I don't know if I could handle going through it again lol
Overall a cute & interesting story, but sometimes the plot/flow is a bit all over the place. Esp Ibu swinging between smothering him w/love & then ghosting him when he misunderstands something. Luckily Takara has a backbone - I love when he just cut through that bomber's bs & when he straight-up tells Ibu he's messed up lol
