This was good. The plot was simple but enjoyable. I also really like how the class rep looks, and I had a strong feeling from the beginning that it was going to be him because of how he kept being shown. I appreciate how expressionless he is and the fact that he wears glasses. Need to find more BL with masked/costumed protagonists because I liked that aspect a lot

This guy did literally everything wrong. Downplayed his boyfriend's feelings and acted like he was making a big deal out of nothing (despite it being clear that anniversaries are important to him), then picked up a half-assed, generic gift as an apology. Couldn't even call off work for a day to spend time with him lmao. Even if anniversaries aren't important to YOU, you should want to make your boyfriend happy, right? It's easy enough to put a date in a calendar and go along with his plans. Sheesh. I actually liked this story though, believe it or not. Cute art

I didn't like this one tbh. Sure, it was supposed to be poetic or whatever, but the thing between the grandfather and Misaki was just strange. It's weird for an old man to be blatantly projecting his romantic feelings for an old friend onto his friend's grandson, and I really dislike how they delivered that by portraying a younger version of the grandfather pining after Misaki. I also felt like Misaki was very inconsiderate of the other guy's feelings. Just the fact that he went along with the grandfather's whims, despite being fully aware of his (the high schooler, whose name I don't remember) feelings, was bad enough. And the scene where he wiped food off the grandfather's face - while he was being portrayed as his younger self - and ate it was so gross to me lmao. If he was doing it because the grandfather was financially useful, that wasn't emphasized in the story NEARLY enough. Shit like that can't just be contextually implied - a scene where he's like "I can't afford to care about superfluous things like romance right now; I need money," would have sufficed. But more importantly, if he actually liked the other guy back, why would he wait 10 years to say that? A decade wasted in what was believed to be unrequited love... most people would've hopefully moved on by then
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
Not sure why this is marked as shounen ai. Anyways, this was good. It's too bad the friendship was one-sided in the end. Hae-in was basically referring to himself when he said you shouldn't expect anything from your "friends"...
