Samee, like we didn't saw him developing absolutely nothing, like yeah he admired him as a kid but that was it basically, it almost seemed like he accepted him out of pity
I think it was pretty appropriate, like the seme had been on the Uke's radar since he was 13. I think at one point he realized he wasn't just jealous of the seme anymore, the seme was hard working and comforting, I think he eventually realized he was into the seme but we just didn't see it. Would have been nice if we saw more of what the uke was thinking in the process smh. The seme was still treated as the main character which is why showing the uke's side was sacrificed. Would have been cool to have at least seen into the uke's mind the moments before he said yes to the Seme lol. Like flashbacks to moments that wooed him and realizing he wants to be with the seme too ╥﹏╥.
honestly I see where you're coming from tbh
I could definitely see how ren came to like him but we didn't get enough of yuu's perspective to understand the mutual feelings actually came to develop. like Mar, I agree it would have been nicer to get more of his perspective, but even without his perspective we should've been able to at least tell where the romance came from.
true true was thinking along the same lines
Well they prioritized the plot outside the romance I feel like which os a little different for a family manga cuz the kid wasn't either of theirs yet they were the ones raising it. I'm thinking the cliche where thebuke sorta overcame the jealousy of the seme that caused him to quit acting etc. and then came to like seme more. He probably didn't for sure think about if he could respond to seme's feelings for a while there plus he could be like me and doesn't show it as much as long as he felt uncertain about it. But he must have definitely come to a realization somewhere closer to the time he was confessed to full at the end amd that's why I would have prefered it if the author showed more of his side fully because in the end he is an actor. He could easily act a bit indifferent for a while if he didn't want to accidently lead the seme on.
So I liked the storyline and that the focus of the story focused on the individuals rather than the couple together. I feel like these character have actually real struggles and worries which is nice. HOWEVER, I feel that as a result the romance kinda tanked. I can understand why seme(Ren) fell in love with uke(Yuu), with admiration turning into an endearing love but I don’t see much if any reason for uke to love seme. There wasn’t really any moment where it felt like uke was falling in love per say. It isn’t really until the last chapter that romance is explored but at that point it seems like uke has already made up his mind that he love seme.
Overall, good story but kinda bad romance I feel
