I've read this before a LONG LONG LONG time ago and have completely forgotten most everything important (I remember the gags for some reason) so rereading was a BLAST. I'm reminded of how much I love Yukio so much. I love the twins like they are my children, they genuinely trigger a parental instinct in me lmao, Yukio especially makes me so emotional. Halfway through this the translation switched to the official(?) one and dropped the honorifics in favour of localisation, which I feel like takes from the character dynamics. I genuinely mourned Yukio's nii-san/aniki/ani and would mentally replace every "Rin" with any one of those. Because it's important to their dynamic. They are NOT estranged, they are not "chill" brothers, they have a bond and aggressively cares about the other (tho they are teen boys so they don't express emotionally with each other) I MISS the juxtaposition of Yukio calling Rin "Okumura-kun" (and him sensei) and then immediately switching to nii-san as soon as agitated IT'S SO VERY CUTE and the contrast of his purpose to training being to protect his big bro while the purpose of the order training him is to kill Rin. All and all every character in this godfuckungdamn manga makes me fucking emotional. #LiveLaughLoveYukio
