a cautious three stars because I REALLY LOVE the aspect of the main character avoiding being in a BL situation at all costs and observing the world he's in. tbh I don't want to see him together with hanato because honestly, if they wanted to give him a male love interest, it would have to be the most non-bl-trope-ish more actually grounded in reality. I wouldn't want him to end up with another stereotypical bl relationship.. Like be extremely out of left field, if he were given a guy love interest it would have to be a chubby (I MEAN REAL BIG) poc trans man, with the least interesting face imagineable, maybe ugly even, who works as a garbage collector.. and he talks to one or two times because he thinks it's safe because of how ugly the guy is. He never becomes good looking but the mc gets more and more comfortable with the garbage dude and the man is openly out as gay! He isn't interested in Ayato either for awhile, it isn't a "love at first sight" thing. Ayato tells him about his observations and they're both in on it and the garbage dude starts seeing these things as well, and only when they're like super comfortable hanging out together, there's no blushing, no "bathump" feeling, they just smile and kiss. They act completely naturally like they did before, just a little more touchy, none of them are like "omg uwu my heawt is mwelting" it's a respectable adult relationship. It would even be awesome if the mc got an arc where he figures out he's bisexual before the getting together with garbage guy. Like this is if they wanted to do something with the story to critique the way bl is portrayed so fetishy and heteronormative... if they just want to go a comedy ending, he doesnt end up with hanato still (i really hate that plot), goes bald because HIS PURPLE HAIR IS A DEAD GIVEAWAY MAIN CHARACTER OF BL VIBE, DYING IT BLACK WILL DO NOTHING TO HELP HIS CASE HIS BROTHER STILL HAS 3 LOVE INTERESTS! puts a paper over his face and stays in the surroundings of already established couples. To be even better, he throws the mangaka x hanato together to keep from raising flags. AND YKNOW WHAT. IF HE'S TO CHOOSE OUT OF THE CHARACTERS THAT EXIST, THE TELEPATH. PLEASE. SOMEONE WHO WON'T INSTA LOVE AND HE ALREADY KNOWS IT'S A BL WORLD TOO AND HE'LL READ MC'S MIND TO REALIZE HE'S RAISING BL FLAGS WHEN THEY TALK. LIKE IT'S A PERFECT SET UP.
