this hit me bro. never forgiving yuushin. all of them are only in their "youth moments" so i can understand their sorrows, troubles, and pain. it ended good bro, i don't really want some romance in this story bc this was supposed to be centered at their friendship and their individualities.
Beautiful story about childhood friends, youth, and change. Tsugu was such a fun character and I loved her dramatic old grandpa. I wish Yuushin actually apologized to everyone.
This quote actually hurt but resonated so deeply: "There could be a day when we'll never see each other again. But even then, I'm sure my flesh and blood and bones will be made of you back when." We may change but we never truly let go of who we were as kids when nothing and everything mattered. Also that quote about how we are a mosaic of everyone we have ever loved, even for a heartbeat.
this genuinely may be my favorite manga. i cant express how much i love it. the story building, the writing, the development of the characters, the art style—even down to the minuscule details of how people really never change and deep down they will always be recognizable. this manga makes me grateful i have such good friends. and like the end of the manga, im sure that if there comes a day where i will never see them again, the bones in my body will know of back when. the relatability of failing relationships and quickly changing environments makes this such an astonishing read and i wish i couldve spent more time on it rather than binging it in one night. this is a masterpiece and i encourage anyone and everyone to read it!
The only main problem I have is that when the boy attempted to rape that girl and never apologized to it. Also, bullying is not okay. I am just surprised that after that incident they still remain friends. Maybe the author did not go to details what kind of things that friend did to ML so that it will not be too heavy when they are okay together again. The second story made me cry. I hope that there's a version where the mother and the son live happily together.
I really love this manga. it's teach me about what is the real friendship means to me. I want that kind of friendship too. Thankyou for making this manga. I really love it so much. I'll support you more. :)
