Himy's manga / #Jealousy(692)

the author was probably pressured to finish and I'm glad they were able to give us some closure at least and tbh thank god they rushed the chasing arc, all these misunderstandings were annoying af. too bad for the ending but it's better than nothingONLY 10 MINUTES WITH OTHER PEOPLE!?! Anyway, this was a strange read for me. The plot was plotting (despite plot conveniences) and the tension was tensioning, yet I feel un-attached like I don't know anyone too well. I wish we had learned just a little teeny bit more about characters throughout the story outside of the couple, but I'll take it.

I’ve thought about this story for quite a bit after reading it because something didn’t sit right with me. I enjoyed and liked it but felt like something was missing and after some thinking, I realized that it was lowkey rushed. It definitely feels like the mangaka wanted to flesh out a LOT more details like the hs kids having powers and the mc’s acceptance and forgiveness of the ml. Also the crossdresser. Felt like a lot more could be done with him. Also just wanted to say that I think it’s funny that the kid wanted to die and literally the next day, an asteroid is set to hit earth. He really does have powers lolAll my homies hate Ritsu. Seriously tho, can't believe the author had plans to make him even worse... The hell. I would have liked to see more internal monologue and his rationalization for the cheating as well, not just "I wanted a comparison"??? If he was this in love with the guy, just seems like such a nonsensical flippant attitude to have for someone you seem to love so much. Maybe that would make sense being young and dumb, but then maybe show that realization of him having made a mistake and how deeply he regretted it etc.
