I'm not really bothered by Motoharu's flirty attitude because, in my opinion, it's played out as more of a comic relief and not really a serious thing. That kind of thing is a hit or miss for me personally, but with him, I found it funny and didn't really mind, in other mangas it does irritate me.
And the whole situation with Kouta is a little bit more confusing to me (I change my opinion every time I re-read it). From what I understand, Kouta still had some unresolved feelings for Yuya since he left so abruptly, so he wanted to be around him. However, when he realized that his actions were causing a drift between him and Motoharu, he chose Motoharu but by that time the damage was done, so he lost his memory because he wanted a "do over". That way he would've never gotten involved with Yuya, there wouldn't have been unresolved feelings causing trouble in his relationship and Motoharu would've been his first man and first love. That’s why (in my opinion of course) at the end everything was magically okay, because the whole memory loss ordeal wasn’t really because he couldn’t chose, but because he wanted to get rid of the thing that was causing Motoharu to lose his smile, his involvement Yuya.
This opinion will probably change once I re-read it again, but for the moment I’m sticking with this. I would love to hear more your interpretation of the debacle. Hope you have a nice day!ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
I never thought it like that!! It makes more sense now, the whole "do over"! Thanks for letting me know how you interpret the whole memory loss. Appreciate it!
Regarding the flirty attitude I guess you could say it's a comic relief but because Kouta was hurt most of the times I didn't take it that way at that time. Maybe I will see it in a different light next time I read it!
Anyway next time I read it,the story will have a better flow thanks to your explanation.
Have a lovely day as well! (▰˘◡˘▰)
Yeah, the whole flirty thing can be polarizing so I get why you're bothered by it.
Though I'm glad I could help by giving my point of view on this story. (●'◡'●)ﾉ

I saw his memory loss a little differently. I saw it as involving his whole childhood. His sister really being his bro.,not knowing if he (Kouta) was gay or not at age 15, being seduced by the sister's boyfriend at a young age . He had a lot of issues to deal with that he never came to terms with. The guy coming back (and the sister) put pressure on him to remember those things. He was bullied at school bec. of the sis. Kouta always had doubts abt. Moto. he'd been left so many times .It took the loss of his memory for him to believe in Motoharu. that's just my op. I love this story.
I like your opinion. I add that the final push to make him break down and cause him to have the accident and lose his memory would be that when he need confort and comprehension from Motoharu instead he doubt him. Its my interpretation.
I like this manga very much, in fact I will definitely re-read it soon. I can feel their love,passion etc. But am I the only one bothered my the seme's flirty attitude? I mean it's fine if you just check out other people, but actually flirting with them and making a move on them constantly? They are supposed to be together so why is he behaving like that?
And also yes the uke is in love with the seme but still somehow has lingering feelings for his 1st love? Apparently he unconsciously chooses to lose his memory because he was torned between the 2 semes but when he regains his memory everything is ok magically?
For me, the flow of the story was slightly off at some parts but I still enjoyed it very much!
I was just wondering if I was the only one feeling that way.
