SpringHaze's manga / #Brother complex(4)

Unrequited love turns requited, long-time friends and coworkers - can't say I'm sold on the 'figure out you're gay when confessed to' trope, but seme was so cool and his expressions were so subtle and nice.

This is a gentle story, both of them are quiet types - which is unusual, it's always some contrasting personalities - both with complicated relationships with their brothers (Kouki's - the seme - aniki is estranged and secretly wishing to be held by him - loved the fact that he is drawn as big and brawny, not some frail twink, he has his own story, which I'll read next). They fall into their relationship pretty easily and without drama and then it's quiet meetings and hot sex. It was sweetly peaceful, even with their being huge brocons.

Love the art and it was cute.

I just bought the first volume of this in Italian (second is out in a few weeks I believe) and read both volumes here to compare translation. I like the premise but I don't like little bro's lack of personality (or mostly that all of it is his struggle to catch up to his old bro - they have the worst father, who is also the reason Nick dumps Louis). Theo is struggling to live a life he doesn't want, has secret ambitions and talents bur comes off angry and a little creepy. He actually mellows down in the 2nd volume. One thing that I found off-putting is the change in art style: characters are manly and age-appropriately drawn in the beginning and the second volume sees them younger and less defined? Sensei, was your hand hurt?!?
