Minority
[️️️️] Our Youth (Manhwa)(a studious high schooler who’s neglected by his workaholic parents and often sees bullies bullying a single classmate, yet he nor any other student does anything to stop them, until on night as he’s walking home through a rough neighbourhood shortcut, he sees the bully’s ring leader being beat black and blue by his father, afterwards the bully approaches him and threatens him to not tell anyone , which he didn’t have the intention of doing, but then many encounters occur in which the bully relies on this emotionless student who also can’t help but keep on helping him)(so realistic, each character is morally grey from the seme who is a observing bully to the uke who is a bystander, yet the story is really good, the unlikely relationship between the complete opposites being so slow and awkward then it blooms into a friendship that isn’t quite like friendship, where they themselves know that they aren’t quite friends yet are something without those boundaries of friendship, eventually becoming a love that they won’t forget, the angst was harsh and the build up for it was through the solemn narration where you knew something bad had to happen but couldn’t know what until it was revealed, the bitter separation was hurtful and the time skip blended the fact that as high schoolers they were naive and vulnerable but as adult they could make the choices they want although time was needed but the love was still there, the ending in my opinion was bittersweet, the couple are together and happy but they could be even happier except the circumstances of their environment and social groups and careers still restrains them)(Def Re-Read) 12th December 2024
