This manga ticked off so many positives for me. The artwork is detailed and gorgeous. So many yaoi tropes were not on display here, instead both MCs showed so much maturity and consideration for each other. Their expressions were precious, I loved it, Yoshika's especially held such a sense of desperation in love that my heart squeezed for him. I loved cheering them on, and I appreciated the smut was placed where it mattered - when mutual love was confirmed, and absolutely consensual. Refreshing. 10/10 from me.
Its interesting how many stalkers one can have...... Overall, I quite liked this manga. The main story was decent but I found the plot holes and some introduced items wierdly unexplained that left me a little frustrated. However its a shounen ai and the nature of the story was sweet and quite comedic in turns so I am ok. The side story had so much potential tho, I honestly wished it could have been developed into more chapters.
This was painfully beautiful. Katsumi's vulnerable emotions and self-loathing were laid bare here and it was so well done. You felt SO much for his pain. Maki is a beautiful man - so patient, forgiving and tenacious in his determination to save Katsumi. I liked the ending - it was obvious Katsumi needed much more time to heal but there was so much hope and love. I wish them all the best. The second story was a nice compliment after, it squeezed some angst but ended on a nice cheerful smexy note. Loved both, a keeper.
The Uncle aka Mum's long-term BF loved her so much that he couldnt let the son go after she dies and got all wierdly obsessive and creepy. But somehow there was an iota of rationality left in the Uncle where he realized he needed to let him go and live his own life, hence sending him on that outstation errand. And MC sounded like he forgave him somewhat in the end, as he seemed to understand what drove Uncle to do what he did. So first, he obsessively loved the Mum, then he obsessively loved the son. Creepy AF yes, but pretty sad too.
Not really into furries, but this was well done. So was the angst. Plot was decent, characters were likeable. I liked how theirs was a long relationship, from the time Daath was a teen, and that despite their fated bond, they are shown to have their up and downs but managed to work it out and build on their love and understanding through it all. We should all be so lucky.
I am just amazed by Sensei's ability to capture all these human sentiments in such details, without having to resort to smut to keep us emotionally invested. (The torrid sex only came at the last chapter, that kinda surprised me for a yakuza/criminal underworld themed manga) This was an intense story about self-forgiveness, redemption, hope and cherished love and it knocked the feet out from under me.
The flow of vulnerable emotions, chapter after chapter, was so well done. I had initially expected this to be bittersweet, so I am happy it wasnt. It just goes to show that you can choose to love, and choose happiness for yourself, regardless of the unrequited love you chose to hide all this while. That that past wont break you and you can move past it and embrace passion and contentment with someone who truly cares.











I dont know how many freakin times I have read this. I absolutely adore them both!! I will never get bored!! I love their character designs and I love how this love story strays from the usual omegaverse forms and yaoi trope. Megume and Tsugumi FTW!!
