a minor detail i really liked about this manga was how chill the parents were - even when the boys were kids they didnt try to convince takeru not to kiss kimihito by saying "he's a boy so you can't" instead it was "kisses are something precious you should do with someone you really really like" (i'm paraphrasing) and when takeru seriously said i really like him - they didnt shove that away - even kimihito's dad didnt look /that/ concerned about the fact that he would have to give his son's hand in marriage away haha
off topic ik, but this pairing reminded me so much of ash and eiji (without the trauma). i'm mainly talking about the appearance but there are some personality similarities too suguru def has ash's "looks angelic and mysterious, but is playfully mischievous" thing, and while i do think sumire is a lot more babie than eiji, that patient caring nature thats so trusting of his partner is similar as well. it makes me emotional thinking that if ash and eiji had gone to high school together, they would be like these two wholesome love birds
i was thinking the same thing omg :( SO IM HAPPY AND SAD AT THE SAME TIME
yeah i agreee they resembled a lot to Ash and Eiji from their personalities and actions. They just reminded me alot about Ash and Eiji ( T﹏T )
