Hi can anyone tell me if this is worth the read?? I went through the comments and saw that a lot of people were confused/did not kno what was going on...
I'd say its good to read. I like the characters, and its great to see how people develop as characters as well. The plot isn't bad, but perfectly paced. Maybe a bit difficult to understand, but I have a feeling that that's because of the gap between a newly updated chapter and what the chapter you read last. It'll be probably easier to understand if you binge read after its over, in my opinion.
Exactly. Everything is clearly explained, and it's adressed multiple times, like there were some chapters I read while being sleepy so I didn't grasp everything also english not being my first langage didn't help, but as you keep reading you get it even when you missed a few things here and there...
It’s indeed worth reading it! Like those here said it depends how you see it and how difficult parts you can’t understand mine part was why his father is like that to his son... (but yeah you see that on every vampire story’s ) I love this manhwa and the art style is really beautiful and I love it that the story is not based on sex or rape and stuff like that
Author-san, you are a liar TT-TT
In your volume 1 ending note you said AND I QUOTE, “from now on the two of them will be extremely happy”
WELL how do you explain these sad tears that are falling as I read the new chapters of volume 2 (if you keep scrolling down the comments u’ll find them if anyone is about to ask)!??! MANGAKA-SAMA how can you say these words and then draw such an agonizing face on kaoru, I just want to know. My heart is hurt and I will not read this until it is completed and they get the happy ending that they deserve and that we were promised TT-TT
I didn't close the tab yet so here it is ::

At first I was like “aw man is this gonna go in the way that he’s not going to like his high school crush anymore and that his love will never be requited and he’ll fall in love with his online friend mirae hyung” BUT DANG after the end of that third chapter I’m like “well damn he looks freaking cool, I wouldn’t mind if he ended up with this guy ヾ(☆▽☆)”
Am I feeling insecure? About their relationship?? BUT THEYRE ALREADY SO CUTE AND FLUFFY?! Maybe I was triggered by the start of the third chapter when the uke kept on mentioning that he’s in such a “normal relationship,” with such a “normal guy” etc giving me a fright because I was thinking “WAIT is he getting bored?? Does he not think he can be in a normal relationship anymore?!??” Bringing me on the brink of tears which is absurd as this is a work of fiction, but still making me feel insecure as he said in previous chapters “you’re earnest and kind, being loved by you makes me want to love you back” SO WHAT IF HE MISSES HIS WILD AND FRIVOLOUS HOOKUPS since he claims he’s such a pervert?? I kno I’m acting overly dramatic and am talking like such a 13 yr old when I’m in fact 20 but Im just waiting until further chapters to see if I can get an earnest exchange of feelings or something. Plz don’t mind my rambling (this might be tmi but it’s THAT time of the month for me), I just wish that they can be happy and together foreva and that seme-kun will not feel jealous anymore or insecure (as I am feeling right now (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜 ) I’m just rooting for them TT_TT
there's no plans of a sequel (so far) and the raw shows there's nothing to be scared about. i think you just have to trust kurokawa's sincerity. hopefully, you'll change your mind in the coming chapters. there's more fluff and wholesome shit. with kinky sex.
hello, Dani here. i don't think it comes out well in the translation, but Kurokawa is actually insecure because he thinks that Kishi wouldn't want such a pervert like him, that's why he keeps going on and on about Kishi being "normal". he thinks Kishi is forcing himself, but i think we can all see he's not. so you really don't need to worry about them ^^
SPOILER.....
....because of the summary I thought he’d end up with the highschooler and for that reason I was slightly surprised at the end when he didn’t ....but the boss is nice and by the last chapter I thought “aw, well this is sweet”
I personally disagree. I'm glad he didn't get together with the high school student and went with the boss. When the boy caught his eye, it was when he was at his lowest point in life. Incredibly lonely, wanting company after being dumped by his ex. Of course you'd be interested to someone who took the time to 'save' you. Not long after, Kanou started to think things like, "It's appropriate to keep my distance and just admire these high school students from a far".
Notice how the kid only appears when Kanou needs a "campanella" to guide him? A companion like in "Night on the Galactic Railroad". That seems to be his 'job'. We don't really learn much about his personal life apart from what he tells Kanou.
The kid feels fleeting and unreachable, while the boss feels more grounded. He'd already shown hints that he was interested in Kanou since the start. He would buy an extra drink to create opportunities to talk to Kanou, and would even point at Kanou's collar to button up (he later admits it's because he finds it sexy).
It's great the author chose the more mature and realistic choice instead of the predictable one. I can't help but find it sweet when the boss and Kanou were affectionately referring to each other as old men.
Lol yes I’m not saying it’s unfortunate, as the development towards Kanou and the boss’ love was most definitely there, I was just surprised because I guess in my mind I omitted the mention of the boss in the summary and right away thought this would be a straightforward kind of book with him falling in love with the high schooler that saved him. In a way I’m glad that didn’t happen because as you said, Kanou being at a low point in his life was just searching for love in anything and looked to the high schooler as his “savior” but as he himself got out of that hole and could accept himself and find a new kind of love with more reasons than just not wanting to be lonely (although that might always be one of the reasons why we want to love someone) he could find true happiness with the boss and I love that aspect. So as I processed the story more afterwards I found that I wasn’t disappointed in the least with the outcome of this story (▰˘◡˘▰)
Lol, I already did. I just changed the words a little since the summary was based on the translated version of the official JP summary found in Amazon. I probably should've gone with the one from Goodreads. It says "ちょっとズレてる真面目な上司×ヨロめきやすい傷心の寂しがりBL" <<< they actually mention the boss as the pairing.
I changed the heart flutter towards the student to 'excitement' (close to tokimeki lol) so it can be vaguely interpreted. Added 'wavering feelings' as a follow up for the boss.










So many good comments but low rating??
People might be rating it lowly on purpose. Which is bs. I'm just now reading it and I've already cried like 3 times. ┗( T﹏T )┛
They are probably rating it lowly since it's such an old couple but like-- even old people need love and sex so fuck'em.
Honestly I think it's because of all the talk about the work culture of Koh-Boku. I'm sure they think of it like "old people stuff I don't care about."
That too tho it clearly states slice of life so like?????????????
Maybe because of the art and the slow-pace plot. It was hard at first, but I managed to read it 'till the end and gave it 4 stars (=・ω・=)
