3.5 Kinda like Itou-san but also not really at all. Chapter 3: 3.75 this is kinda like Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai meets itou-san. This chapter was pretty heartbreaking. Chapter 4: 4 oh this is def like saezuru tori wa habatakanai! It's so angsty and yes. Finish: EHHHH ITS A CLIFFHANGER?!

DAMN IM SO DISAPPOINTED. I LOVED WHERE THIS WAS LEADING UP TO BUT THEN THEY FUCKING RUSHED IT ALL. The seme just all of a sudden confesses (which I don't fully believe are actually that genuine) and the brother just leaves without actually doing anything. I get he wants to see the ukes hurt face but I've read enough twisted yaoi to know that's a recipe for a possessive love (WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN FUCKING GREAT). At least I liked the development of the uke even though it too was too fast. May or may not reread. UGGGGGHHHH JUST WHEN I FIND A MANGA THAT PIQUED MY INTEREST AFTER A DRY SPELL, THIS HAPPENS. The concept is very similar to Breath only that story was better written and developed (and that's probs because it had more chapters). All the characters' feelings were believable.

Honestly its not good. I like the direction they were going abut misunderstanding and such but it was extremely unrealistic. The uke is a victim of countless physical, sexual, and emotional yet his personality doesn't match that history. It made sense that he blames everything on himself yet he was more than willing to talk about his past (something I'm more than positive most victims of abuse can't easily do). I have absolutely no idea why the fiancee is completely apathetic to the uke. And..... I can't believe this story even attempted to cram a forced love story between the uke and seme. There is too many open wounds in their relationship for there to even have A HINT of romantic feelings for each other. Maybe down the road but that part of the story was so unbelievable. But even then, realistically, the seme would deeply apologize, and get the fuck out of his life. Actually, the only reason I would accept for the seme for not leaving is because he wants to help the uke understand his self-worth (and I guess he technically hints that at the end but like, I call bullshit). I won't even label this a romance because there is none of that. So to sum things up, this manga tries to take a very serious and realistic concept and does I really really shit job conveying it in an convincing way. You're supposed to feel sad for the uke (which I do) but isn't developed well enough for the reader to really feel for him, or even the other characters. There are also a shit ton of plot holes that I won't even begin to go over because it's not worth it. *sighs* So frustrating

Oh my god this perfect. Idk why but I really feel a lot of connection to the uke... Maybe it's his personal insecurities and doubt in others (yeah that sounds about right). Lawlz at the comments that the seme was "cheating" I think this was a pretty realistic portrayal of love. During the uke's inability to own up that he loves the seme, the seme would obviously slowly drift to find someone who treats him better. The uke realizes this and it's even mad that the seme "cheated" but rather understands why. Love isn't something simple like once you fall for someone you can only be attracted to that person at that time...
Season (ASOU Mitsuaki)
3.75 It was quite beautiful and sad but idk there's a lot I'm confused about. I'll need to reread.
