kei_k's manga / #Childhood Friends(183)

first read aroung 2014-2015. reread: 02/11/19 ~ Really good, except towards the end which is definitely rushed. Could've been better if made longer. (I super liked it when In first read it.. but now, not that much. Hmm~)

Already read this before, but left untagged. not sure when I'll re-read though.

start/fin: 05/22/19 LOVED IT SO MUCH!!! I just wish I've read more about the start of Kazuma and Chiaki's relationship. They're seriously couple goalsss! <3 edit: apparently, there IS a prequel! YAY! Prequel: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/itsuka_koi_ni_naru_made/

start: 05/22/19 up: 05/22/19 ~ ch 6 PREQUEL TO: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/kazoku_ni_narouyo/ *Actually read the sequel first.. and wished they elaborated more about Kazuma and Chiaki's relationship when they started.. Didn't know they actually have a separate manga for it. kkk.. Hope it gets completed soon though. Really love this couple, though it kinda put me off how they started doing naughty things when Kazuma was still in a relationship. Even though it's a "girlfriend" and shouldn't matter much in yaoi universe, it still kinda irked me. Oh well, thankfully, Kazuma cut it off with her soon enough after he realized his feelings. I guess at that time, he didn't think much of it, especially cos they were both guys. He's kinda an airhead then, so I guess I'm not that mad. They're still couple goals, though. So adorable!

start: 06/02/19 up: 06/02/19 ~ ch 7 // I have mixed feelings for Chika.. I mean I like him, except in *that* department (confirmed by ch 7).. I just feel uncomfortable to those who swear they love someone so much but can't bear to confess or hurt them or whatever, so they sleep around with others... Ugh.. I mean, I also get his way of thinking... He's scared that if he pursues Azuki to the next level and start a romantic relationship with her, at some point in time, they'd just break up and separate. He didn't want that, so he held back. And that's fine.. But only if he'd really stick to it. It just irks me when someone who chose to "sleep around" instead of confessing still feel entitled to feel like they own the person they like or something.. I mean, Chika's not exactly like that, but the way he showed off to Mizuki about how "close" he and Azuki are, it's kinda frustrating.. Especially when Azuki's being so oblivious to everything. I guess it's just a personal preference for me, that I always prefer to quiet/cold/naive type rather than the overly friendly/flirty/mischievous type.. Well, in this case, it feels like Chika is still the end game, but personally, I prefer Mizuki. No, erase that. I wanted Mizuki's personality in Chika's identity. Something like that. lol. I mean, personally, I kinda like a childhood friend over a new guy, because it feels like he's already a part of my life.. though in a way, it'd take time to see him in a romantic way.. Eh.. But back to the story, I guess Azu is just oblivious about her feelings for Chika, and her feelings for Mizuki are just a little more obvious so it seems like she may be interested in him that way.. But maybe it's really just curiosity and a new feeling -- different from how she's always been with Chika. But deep down, maybe she's just comfortable/complacent that Chika's already part of her life so no matter what she does, he'll always be there..
