I'm so sad that the day where i can label this manga as "already read" has come.... but what an incredible read! This even trumped over blue sky complex for me. It's very well made -- plot, pacing, art.... and i adore the characters so frickin much. Their relationship with each other is such a gem, and they act just like real kids do instead of grown ups in teenage bodies like so many other highschool BL characters. Here, they are dumb, naive, cringe, and childish. They take their time to make mistakes and learn things, and i don't think there are a lot of highschool BL works that let their teenaged characters do that as much as this manga does. The chapters are filled with absolutely hilarious and quite a lot of slapstick humor, but there are real and touching moments too. All in all a GREAT manga, icb i'm this lucky to be able to read it.

This manga is both simultaneously hard and healing to read. It addresses tons of prejudice and microaggressions that LGBTQ+ people deal daily, and it's so effective because it's from a perspective of a mother who has been unintentionally prejudiced against gay people her whole life as a byproduct of her surrounding. It's very real, so it can be heartbreaking, but it's also very hopeful, because the manga is also about how people CAN actually change for the better, and how prejudice can be erased as long as you're willing to open your heart just a little bit.

Holy crap holy crap holy crappppp the most heart-throbbingly romantic manhwa is already over and i somehow missed it? Blasphemy. I can't believe it's truly ended. S2 was a bit more conflict ridden than S1 so i was waiting for all chapters to come out because i didnt wanna die from cliffhangers. I had so much fun reading this-- everything from the art, the story, the characters, pacing, EVERYTHING is such a godsend that i can't believe it exists. Yiyoung is one of my favorite characters ever. I just want to be him, man, he's so inspiring. Will miss this couple real bad, but im glad it ended with a happy note!

I forgot to mark this manga hehe a sequel to my first and coincidentally most favorite BL manga ever. Art-wise it's a bit of a decline but the writing is still good, their peaceful daily life makes me wanna cry, all in all a very wholesome continuation / complement to the first book.

Can't believe i finally finished reading one of my most anticipated and favorite BLs, it was so shorttt i need 10 more chapters of them awkwardly flirting with each other. Anyway like i've said so many times before, this author really GETS romance. I enjoyed reading this s lot.
