First story was about a writer who likes writing about old brothels, who met a young kid who had an idealistic vision of the city (the metaphor was that of a caged bird). Idk what to feel.about this one really. I didn't dislike it, but I didn't like it either lol. (and the mangaka loves drawing iced drinks on glasses. kind of weird that theyre always so detailed. perhaps it was a necessary point? like the kid got drugged coz of a drink after all lol) Second story... am i too obsessed with hijikata that im seeing a hijikata x okita au in this one istg. Guy gets his promiscuous friend captive in his house, you can tell he's somewhat guilty but he does it anyway lol. Out of jealousy and insecurity I'm sure. If the first couple was about freeing a caged bird, this one is about caging a wild bird lol. It actually ended up quite well for them. I found it a bit cute, actually lol. (and i don't get how people are saying this is open-ended... what ending are yall fuckers expecting, it's clear as day that they're together)
