But I was so relieved that Kurose’s backstory wasn’t as dark as I thought. I think Shirotani’s backstory is the heavier one tbh. The romance starts off as kinda twisted but then mellows down towards the end. And I guess this is just one of those mangas where the MCs don’t tell each other everything about their past, they still kept some secrets to themselves until the very end which is fine, it’s the more realistic approach I guess. In some parts, I just kept nodding my head bc I agreed with what they were saying about their fears, reasonings, etc... and it just made so much sense. Also, I was so furious at that bitch (you know the one) and she is blacklisted in my book but I was also disturbed at the adult who let himself be seduced by the minor. Us adults know very well that shit is illegal and there really is no valid excuse for sleeping with a minor - you either wait till they become legal or have sex with someone your own age. Okay, now I can move on.

Always grateful to have this manga to come back to after reading some sad or toxic ones. Their relationship’s gotta be one of the healthiest out there.

How could anyone resist those gentle, soulful eyes? Dojun is a dreamboat. HeeSoo is the luckiest person ever.

The characters felt so real and I loved their dynamic. Photographer-kun was so earnest and mature and somehow always knew just the right thing to say to make Studious-kun feel better and they were just so compatible without being unbearably sweet. They somehow just fit with each other and I love to see it.

Been a while since my heart was moved by a sweet manga to the point of spilling a couple tears. I didn’t sob, it’s not that kinda manga but I just got a soft spot for characters who feel like they’re not good enough for the person they love. Or when they have to watch the person they love fall in love with someone else right before their eyes. I know all too well how that feels. I practically savored like every panel. The plot is very shojo manga/fairytale-esque, it’s just super sweet. I don’t read stories like this often to avoid feeling this way but this was so worth it.

But srsly their looks, their features are top of the line. Their personalities are great too but like, I couldn’t see anything past their looks anymore - goddamn.

Some of the chapters felt kinda unfinished almost like it ended in the middle of the scene lol or was I the only who felt that? But this def isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. The uke is a sex worker and he didn’t quit after sort of dating the seme so he naturally continues to sleep with his clients but the seme is aware at least. I was fine with it but I totally get why some people would be uncomfortable.

Been a while since I’ve read a yakuza manga with no rape (tho there were attempts) and I love how easy of a read this was. Even the backstories weren’t too heavy or dark. The romance was pretty cute too. This was really refreshing for a yakuza manga.

I don’t usually read sweet stories like this bc they make my heart hurt and tbh until chapter 5, my heart didn’t really hurt that’s why I prefer this over the prequel. But man, that ending was so sweet and perfect. I just needed to let this out so that I can move on. And I totally resonate with that female co-worker!! I want to be the protagonist to a romantic love story too but maybe in my next life lol.

It’s sweet, adorable, and nostalgic. It gives off that nostalgic summer vacation vibe when you were a school kid. Summers as an adult aren’t as fun bc I don’t get a vacation anymore lol but that’s ok. This was a sweet read but don’t worry, it isn’t too heavy on the emotions. Man, it’s been a long time since I’ve read shounen ai.
