Why haven’t I discovered this sooner? Absolutely hilarious. Got me kicking my feet too. I love how silly the plot it started but ended up becoming something memorable for them. I loved both couples. There’s no unnecessary drama. I love actually seeing how their relationship develop without overshadowing the main couple. Just some high school kids learning love.

Also holy fucking shit Ida’s dream GENUINELY scared the shit out of me. I was like “Is this for real?? There’s only 2 chapters left before the finale you can’t be serious??” I was ready to wreck shit about the “ending” of them not meeting after 9 years. The plot is too good to let it end abruptly with poor writing, please let it be a dream. And thank god it was a dream.

I do think I remember liking Tj and Ian being complex characters, they’ve been through so much together to the point that it’s toxic and unhealthy. They gone too far and they can’t turn back. But they NEED each other so so much. Beyond lust or love. And I liked their sexual tension together. Joseph is too far from their lifestyle, and maybe Ian could be have a better life with Jo. But our boi Jo is just gonna get hurt, you someone deserve better pls

The pacing is fast on this one. It would’ve been a great story had it fleshed the characters and settings more. But since it was rushed, the stakes didn’t feel high and it wasn’t as satisfying when the two had a moment together. So much potential

Their chemistry is so good. And i like that Kaoru is a beast in fighting while still being open and honest with what he wants. And I like those troupes in delinquents. Gap moes are always so fun. Pair that with another unhinged character and you got yourself good chaos. And seeing the side character’s responses are hilarious.

If there was another volume, I’d love to see more of their backstories or just them being a lovey dovey couple while fighting. And if there was an actual threat to the plot where Kaoru actually gets hurt or in danger, I’d want to see Shun’s intense reaction.
