Seme is so slow. He doesn't realize he is in love or deep lust with his friend who already adores him. Hell their first moment might have been what lured him. Though I am surprised that no one noticed our seme is no longer reading his magazines or acting like a guy who just got dumped.
partner? his partner? a man whom never showed up in the other manga even though others have. for a partner that doesn't bode well for him. Maybe they were 'married' for some odd reason. Or maybe they are partners in work, we never seen them at work. As for who took the meds from our main's room I think it was his mate
Chapter 1, page 31: work partner :)
hahaha, aoyue is feeling a bit rejected so he is taking out his anger of that on his beloved who is blissfully ignorant. While the others are starting to notice how the two are acting more and more like they are dating. And then the producer's brother is hitting on aoyue whom pretty much is obvious to that. so many feelings and nothing is happening. must be frustrating to all the one-sided loves. Also anyone else laughing at how are main is pretty much proof reading the confession song to him and still hasn't figured it out.
I like this. it goes into why he is so obsessed with our main. he doesn't get it. But his life became dulled and flat after he left him. After he had done what he had always down. It seems he connected our main with his mother. The same mother that his brother thinks he killed but from Yule's perspective while he thinks he killed her, seems more like he was just being an over excited kid in the wrong spot, and his mother slipped and fell. And since his brother blamed him, he accepted it. Hm, This makes me wonder if they were all products of a negative upbringing or if they are genticly horrible. The character devlopment for yule in this is great. And it seems he stabbed himself to try to save our main. I am sorry dong, but I kinda want you to get stabbed a little too for putting our main in that situation. Our main well, I am frustrated as all hell with him and his lack of an objection.
Hope there is more, this chapter is deep and feels like the story is not over yet. I love the development. Showcasing fears, worries, passion and love and the only time i ever seen a transgender person properly portrayed. It's mentioned in the bath as family bathes with each other often in japan so this is normal. But I love how the 'uncle' is really just the neighbor, takes in sakura and raises him. I love how everyone is surprised that the uncle is transgender, but truth of the matter is that is just what he is. I am more impressed at how the uncle handles it all, he took in a kid from an abusive family and while the kid feels he's only good at one thing he then decides to make an environment for the kid so he can at least protect the kid as best he could. The only questions I have to the uncle being transgender is does he now have a dick (surgery can make one?) and is he going to have his own yaoi story?
Where did you get that the uncle was just a neighbor? He’s Sakura/Haru’s dad’s younger brother and seemed to also be pretty close to Haru’s mom (that scene at the very beginning of chapter six is definitely one of the uncles memories bc it cuts to him right after)
I agree. I think when the mother says "Youko"...that's the uncle's female name.
Anyone is free to call the in-laws brother or sister but looking at how close he is to the mom that he even felt the same protectiveness, I'm assuming that he and the mom were siblings if they were on the level of calling each other pet names or their childhood names.
Oh, good point. I made the assumption he was the criminal pig's brother, especially since he was buried with the mom (I doubt the mom's brother would pay for that). At this point, I dunno. But I'd rather go with the brother-of-mother so he isn't related to that monster.
That it seemed he look like he lived next door when the flashbacks. When he walks over to find sakura stabbed/slashed by his own father. I figured if he lived with them he would have realized that sakura was getting abused. And the part where it seemed they had their own place after sakura got better.
he was there because the trash called dad borrowed money from him so he visited to get it and was greeted by the scene. he did not just walk at the door conveniently. if they were just neighbors, there's no way he'd open the door familiarly.
Question is, though who paid for it then? Is it paid for in Japan as long as you have no surviving relatives and are buried beside your spouse?
And calling someone who is JUST your neighbor or tenant brother means you would have to be really close, but that would raise the question about why didn't he know the kid was being abused? And if he did, that would make him scum. Even if he was just RELATED to the dad, I think he must have had some indication of what he was like, too, and especially so if they were neighbors on top of that. Which would also make him scum. So I agree that he must be the brother of the mom.
Also, who called the uncle You-chan at the end? Was it Otohime-san?
I was wondering the same thing, unless the abuse happened within a shortish space of time and the uncle might have known the father was a drunkard, but not that our baby was being beaten up and sold to a perv. I had typed out a response about if Uncle You knew he was scum, but I keep thinking he must not have known the selling/abuse, and just that he had a drunk dad.
Because You does seem to care, so I have to think he was working, not visiting THAT often, and if it were a month, maybe all that with Sensei happened in a matter of weeks or a month or so?? (I didn't go back to check).
It's a mystery. Unless it was a prepaid husband/wife plot, I can't imagine Uncle You or Haru would want the bastard buried with the sister/mother. Prepaid, though, that could answer it. You can have a bought burial spot for a long time (ie, since the mom died).
It says "Haru" at the top of the phone.
Didn't he call his uncle Kaname, before?
Yeah, that last is why I think he must be the brother of his mom. Because he DOES seem to care. :)
I love talking to you manganiME. When I talk to you (we have discussed other subjects and series before, I should tell you) we nearly always discuss subjects that pertain to the story not the so called flaws of a character's development. I like that.
Hm. Don't remember. Page?
I like discussing both story and character. And sometimes, stories aren't clear, so discussing what may actually be going on is fun too. I also like dissing stories that are totally illogical and characters who are utterly useless. :D
Chapter 3, page 32, third panel, third bubble.
yeah.i agree to all your points both on neighbors or brothers. i mentioned this at my previous reply that believe that he is the mom's brother because of the air of closeness around them. also if trash and you-san were brothers, he should have known or at least had a clue that his brother is a scum of the earth. the dad is he's probably just visiting his nephew and thank god for appearing at the right time.
:D I love that our biggest issue is how are they related. I am also so happy that we can discuss our point of views reasonably. I may be right, you may be right, or something else. I love how we admit it is a bit murky to figure out, but at the same time the characters we love. I am enjoying this conversation so much. Thank you all.
As for the neighbor/brother who may be haru or Kaname. I remember him referred to as both I figured one could be a first or last name, or even a nickname. And I still think he's a neighbor, but got the photos since they use to be sakura's or rather his family and when papa was gone sakura got to take those. So his guardian now keeps them and enjoys the fact he raised such a cute kid. I don't put too much weight in someone being called brother or uncle in manga since they use that term a lot with other people who are not family. Hell as far as I understand the language Old woman doesn't exist in japanese language it's either grandma or hag. (never heard the term for hag yet)
I went back to reread a bit and now I've changed my mind yet again. ahahah. I've decided he was probably the mother's best friend (back in the "girl" days). That would explain being called Youko-chan (instead of ane or ne-chan or something). It would explain why having the album with baby pictures. Maybe Youko/You was actually even in love with Haru's mom, and being inwardly male, could have seen it as Haru could have been "their" kid.
Since Haru calls him Kaname-san and later You-chan (and if he were the blood uncle, might be calling him ji-san but not You-chan). Or maybe he uses Kaname (last name) when it's the boss and You-chan when asking about more personal stuff?
Confusing, I know.
So, I"m going with mom's bestie, for now, so maybe that's why he had no right to try to take Haru prior to the dad doing something heinous. Even if the dad was a worthless, debt-riddled drunk piece of crap. That would explain less regular visits than maybe a blood uncle would.
And the point that "uncle" and "brother" can be used for non-blood-related males is good to remember about mangas, yeah.
a bit strange, but sweet chapter. On the outside he is cold, but when with his cute little demon seme he is more lively. As for the trade his mother made, She might have made it thinking it was a dream. only to find it real. that or she really values money and her son, but values money over her son. The question is when did the company form. Before or after he 'died' cause if they became powerful and rich after the accident then it could stand to reason his mother gave him as a demon bride. Which is nicer than just randomly offering child to demon.
so cute. He was going to fight the other guy for the girl, but she had already kicked his ass. And had gotten so upset everyone had the wrong idea. Turns out yakuza boy is a weaking! lol. I do love how our mains get together and work things out like this. It shows how close they really are. I mean it's different from america, cause if this happened in america and we had host clubs that allowed this kind of stuff I am sure it would go down like "Listen, the girl from my club that gave us the tickets before, she got into trouble. Blames us, and now won't listen unless you entertain her for a bit, so come play host for a bit. I'll give you some more chocolate."
And thus pink becomes the uke. sorry I had to. I don't know if he does.
the fox is worried about what is happening in the forest most likely while rin is not around and blames our main. So the idea of killing the bride to make a god return to work is not completely out there, it's dark but I see it's reason. However as humans are now caught up int this it will be difficult. I am also worried for Kota. He never seen any of this stuff before and boom, talking 9 tail fox and the fluffy carefree neighbor becoming a scary dragon (no matter how well drawn, when he's a dragon he looks scary.)
so both of them are possessed by dog spirits. One being a god and another a demon. And they are in love. And now shiro seems to have no memories. Though it was funny him going to school as a dog. The fact that we will have to face relearning and falling in love might be a bit weird. hope his memory returns. and i hope it doesn't go to the lying so they love you approach.
