pinetr3e's manga / #slice of life(16)

I liked more than i expected, yet i didn't. I have mixed up feelings about it. Ended up abruptly.

Seriously... THIS IS AMAZING! The story is whole! Of course I'd like to see some more of them, but it's just the right amout. Nothing is left out! We have hisashi's past (which is sad), the development of hisashi's and mao's feelings (which is beautiful) and we have the movie production (which is really realistic). To be honest, the whole manga was realistic and it was beautiful. Everything was explained and the feelings were relatable. Honestly, one of my favorite and the art is exquisite.

Oh my god, seriously, I just fell in love with this author and this story. It's simple and beautiful, pure hearted and heartwarming. I just love it. It's one of my favorites now. It's short but I feel refreshed after reading it. There's no angsty and I really needed a story that was like this. They are fated partners, I can see their red line. And I love their names! The meanings are so beautiful! Also, the art is amazing. Honestly, just flawless. It's just so good I'm gonna go cry now, excuse me.

Let's just say that I wasn't expecting this bucket of cold water (drama) when I started this buuuut I loved this story and the characters! The art felt a bit crude sometimes, but I think I like it. So, Fuji lost his best friend. I must say that for him to be pushing Kira away, I thought that Saiki (the bff) was his ex boyfriend or that Fuji had feelings for him never spoken of. But, now i guess that's not the case. Saiki was really just his bff and Fuji was not over his death (even blaming himself) so he probably wasn't ready to start a relationship (he couldn't accept himself nor the death of this special person, and I respect that) so that's why he was trying to push Kira away by hurting him. I GET ALL OF THAT BUT STILL he was a REAL asshole with Kira. The thing he said in the beginning about Kira being a slut, I was shocked for like 30 min, just staring at the page. IT WAS REALLY HEAVY. Good thing he apologized but he could have dealt with the whole situation differently (?) He could have said the truth... tho maybe he didn't want to talk about his friend's death, specially to a stranger... there are people who aren't really open about their feelings. Because of all this i felt the manga was really lifelike and really wholesome in only 6 chapters. BUUUT ENOUGH WITH THE DRAMA let's make a statement here that THE SEX IS AMAZING! SO HOT! OMG! ANNNNND I WANT IRIYA'S STORY!!! Also, FUJI BEING A POLICEMAN SAVED MY DAY. DAMN HE'S DADDY!

This is a very pure and wholesome story! As the author said it's about friendship and growth! And it's amazing that it depicts the prejudice towards disabled people (a super rare topic). Tho there are some flaws in the story and sometimes I thought the way it was written was a bit superficial, it's a good read. I love their friendship and i wish i had something like that! (tho i'm gonna confess that i wish they were more than friend ha i'm sorry but i cant help it, it's my gay side speaking). People really shoud read it if they have the time. It's really good!

I gotta say: this one REALLY is REALLY good. It's so realistic how they don't get together right away, like Konno takes time to accept, understand and feel the same way that Shuu did/does. But that is also the part that broke my heart a little. Because they distanced from each other for 3 years. The pace of the story is slow but it doesn't have that dragged feeling. It's the right timing. I wished we had seen what was going on inside Konno's head, because we only got Shuu's pov and Konno is quite hard to read tho it says he's simple minded. The couple aside, Shuu's past was something really different and really real. He just wanted to make friends but because of his privilege and talent people hated him and he just wanted to understand their feelings so he tried throwing everything away, but also to be free to do what he wanted, which was music. So good. Tho i must say that there was that scene where he vented his anger on Konno that i didn't like it. I think it was an assault but Shuu felt bad and apologized for it, right? Tho i can't say that this scene was unnecessary like it's totally psychological Shuu wanted to dominate and destroy/hurt Konno because of what he had and was, we can take some depth out of it. Anyways this story is really lifelike and sadly that made me dislike it a little lol i'm not gonna lie. Don't ask me why but tho i really liked it i can't call it a favorite. The characters just didn't captivated me wholly. But i still like them, wish them happiness and wanted to see Konno put it in lol just don't get why we didn't get it in an extra. I would give it 4.5 Oh and the art is A M A Z I N G. KONNO IS SO BEAUTIFUL. THOSE EYES, GODDAMMIT.

OH MY GOD I'M SQUEAKING RIGHT NOW I CAN'T STOP I'M SERIOUS!!!! This manga is so cute!!!!!! First of all, i totally can relate to Hinata. He's so desperate to find love and he's so naive in a way and earnest. Aki's so hot and i thought he was going to be one of that tease guys, but he's honest too and kind!! I simply love the fact that they are both virgins and i got kinda of sad that Aki's two years older (i think) and he's going to college and Hinata's in high school (but that's okay because that means they can have kinky uniform sex lol i'm such a perv help!!). The story is just so cute, it has the right pace, it's healthy, it's slice of life (well sort of because it's just too good to be true but oh well) I LOVE IT THEY HAVE A PLACE IN MY HEART. Oh, but i'm super sad that they didn't have sex i mean the author was implying sexual things all the time so i thought they would get it on JESUS i need extras on my desk by tomorrow! ALSO, I like Aki's brother too! I thought he was going to be a pain but he's actually funny and is even cheering for them to be together! OH AND LET'S TALK ABOUT RYU AND HINATA'S AMAZING FRIENDSHIP! I LOVE THEM LIKE THIS AND GIVE RYU A MAN YOU COWARDSS!! ANYWAYS THE STORY IS HEARTWARMING I LOVE THIS COUPLE I LOVE AKI, I LOVE HINATA, GOD BLESS!

OH MY GOD I FEEL SO WARM NOW! MY HEART IS FLOATING! This is so good, so cute. The story is slice of life my favorites and the couple is just so understanding with one another, always asking to see what the other wants. Amazing. I have to have more of them. I will never get enough!!! Oh, and the art is so beautiful!! I wanna cry. Man, i have a toothache with all of this sweetness awwwwwwww i'm definetely rereading it someday. Also, their age and height gap is adorableeee!!! I love this goddamn couple!!

OH MY GAWD HELP I'M DROWNING IN SO MUCH CUTENESS WSHWHSWHSHWHSW SERIOUSLY THIS IS AMAZING. It's a simple story of love between high schoolers honestly you know JUST MY TYPE. They are MEANT for each other. Nanase had already heard about Sakurai, it was like fate. The fact that he was just shy and always wanted to act tough in front of Sakurai was so cute. AND THEY ARE SUCH GOOD BOYS TOO. I'm so sad that Nanase was lonely in his childhood. His parents were busy a lot and made Nanase take all those lessons and tho they wanted to make him not feel lonely it backfired. BUT SAKURAI WAS RIGHT THERE FOR HIM AND WILL ALWAYS BE. Their growing feelings and them slowly becoming close was so smooth. AND THE ART IS AMAZING DAMN I GOT BUTTERFLIES ALL OVER MY STOMACH. MASTERPIECE.
