The benchmark romance. Maybe THE best of them all. Devasting in it's romance even in the most mundane setting, between normal people.but the genuine passion doesn't take a hit at all, in fact it's heightened because it doesn't resort to cliches and stereotypes. IT'S GENUINELY SHOCKING HOW WELL WRITTEN IT IS FOR A YAOI MANGA.
angst, but it's not toxic. i was nervous about the teacher-student thing but thank lord, the mangaka handles it really well.
we love a couple that hype each other up, while trying to be better themselves.
reminded me why I used to read shoujo. non-toxic crushes and feelings all over the other place. good-hearted teenagers struggle to communicate.
it's a parody but I just needed it to be funny, why is it so adorable and sweet as well!
we love a honest and hard-working couple, dedicated to their dreams and each other. I love how money and finance plays an important role in their relationship, because other romantic fantasies will usually completely ignore this aspect as it ruins the fun lol. i guess that's why you have endless supply of chaebols and billionaires, one easy hack to completely avoid actual, difficult conversations that do need to happen between couples.
