In tears at the end, I remember years ago reading Yumi's story and now I don't remember much but I know his current partner helped him leave his abusive relationship. Hence, I don't remember if I actually read the spin-off about his ex next or not because of Yumi's grief. Sometime later, I've read and reread the prequel to this story as a standalone because i didn't want to feel hurt for Yumi again. But here, I loved how this story handled it, and that while you shouldn't romanticise "the abusive ex who actually was broken inside" because at the end of the day Hayashida knows that it was his actions that hurt Yumi and that he couldnt just let it go. That he harmed someone he held so dear to his heart. I liked that they didn't ask for Yumi's forgiveness because really Yumi had no reason to but he gave him that album and let him know that you can move on now from being haunted too. There was no redemption arc, no him going to apologise etc. Just that, their stories will be seperate as life goes on for both. I'm happy that Hayashida while is tormented, his abuse wasn't just written off in his own story(like the author going that now that he's in love he's perfect and an angel etc etc) they held him accountable while still treading the path of self- forgiveness (since he knows asking Yumi that would be tremendously unfair and wrong). It's a capturing both sides without undermining either. And I love them, I hope both heal and I'm happy that both have found loves that understand them :'))

as someone who has seen dv and abuse myself, the uke definitely deserves jail time lmao but whatever cus wdym you hit him for years? this story did not sit right with my spirit at all and i can’t find myself ever supporting an abuser

This fucking hurts. Closures really comes in so many ways. Yumi gave Hayashida a photo album cause Yumi knew this would put Hayashida's doubt and anxieties to a close. T____T

OK I love their story, but it did get kind of confusing stories also mentioned in another one that this author wrote. Black-and-white.
8/10…smut

Uwaaa

Read stigma

Wtf. This mangaka is a literary genius! He made such a hateable character have a redemption arc. Its genius that he didnt use the name kanchan here to make a separation from he was and who he is now. love this story so much! I read yumis story years ago and i was sure im never going to read hayashidas story because i felt like theres no saving guys like him, but damn i actually like him now. I love long time friends to lovers and i cried for what yumi and hayashida lost, but this ending is perfect for them.

It's all about healing. It's actually good. Not just my type of story.

This was an emotional roller coaster but I’m glad that Shuuna and Kan-Chan made their relationship work and that Yumi is also at peace. They are healing in their own way by their own hands.

to make this straight I don't like the uke at all, hitting his boyfriend is horrible no matter what but it shows that people can change, but if his former partner have forgave him, who am I to judge

i love how much nuance is put into this work, the way trauma, abuse, guilt and forgiveness is portrayed. i love how moving past past mistakes, in this instance, is not through someone being kind and relieve the other of the burden, but the one at fault keeping the memories, good and bad, and try his best to do the right thing.

Because I read it this way, I was able to grasp the character designs and personality of everyone involved. Ig Yumi and Kan-chan are platonical soulmates that temporarily seeked love for each other. I know it started because Yumi was cowardly towards his feelings with Maa-kun, and found a fleeting passion with Yumi and covered it up as love. As it is Kaa-chan truly loved Yumi and seeked future together with him,but with the financial burden and work assaults that he have been thru adding the feeling that Yumi wasnt really 100% boarded in their relationship that lasted for 9 to 10yrs, it resulted to such breakdown. Even though its bittersweet and if I may think that they should not have to go thru with everything, I also think otherwise that for them to find their true unconditional unparalled love, they have to experience such turmoil. Ig its the way of life. Im happy that Yumi is now with Maa-kun, also as Yumi said they are a weird couple and I see that. Kan-chan is now with Shuu-chan. In this whole story Shuu-chan was the goat. He pursued, took time to understand the circumstances, faced the problem head on, and is willing to provide support even tho everything was new to him and not his usual personality. Also Maa-kun even tho he is an extreme introvert, he went out of his way to not let Yuumi ran away from his grasp ever again. Both couple deserves happiness
