3.75 Engaging and tragic love story. It had the perfect amount of drama. However, while the story's concept was good, the manga could definitely had been more polished and refined because the manga offen seemed kinda confusing. This also didn't make me feel as empathetic as I thought I was going to be. But maybe the art also took part in my issue with this because I wasn't the biggest fan of the art. Maybe I'll reread it.

First story (chp 1-5) Not words other than perfection. A masterpiece. Felts lots and cried lots. Reread: didn't love it as much but guess it was like with Doushitemo Furetakunai when I loved it to pieces after the first read but don't feel it as much the second time. It's still great though. Second story was too confusing for me to feel anything initially but after awhile I understood it. I probs would have liked it more if I understood it the first time because it's about twisted revenge. I think because the concept is really psychological yet they don't really delve into the reason behind the semes feelings. I get its complicated and he's human and didn't want to ruin their relationship (I would understand this more if the manga actually went into it) but why did he take the uke in and seem to do a shitty job of raising him because he seems to always leave him alone at home? Is he trying to distance himself from the uke? Does it root from his tendency to pick up abandoned animals and lovers yet not do a good job of taking care of them? Because after thinking all of this you really do realize the seme is a shitty person. He always leaves the uke in the dark and lets him misunderstand. He should know his history of abandonment yet he doesn't try enough to reassure he's needed. GOD.
