I don't know if it's because I've read Hana to Junketsu first (similar story, but different story altogether) but I didn't like the pacing of this one tied with unnecessary drama and poor execution.
I like the second story though. Short drama in between but that got resolved fast when they talked it out. Seme: I may have overtrained him. Friend: More like you overdid him!
The semes in this one are so hot Kabutani is a beast and Yuichi is suh a sweet and cheerful ikemen. The ukes, Kiriyama and Haruta are good too. Kiriyama doesn't easily give in like an idiot and Haruta is so cute! Both stories are so enjoyable in different ways
