There were a lot of problematic things in this story that I really could’ve done without. Some parts of the story also seemed random and unrelated to the main story. I also don’t really get Mao, even though he’s our protagonist and we get to know a lot of his internal thoughts. The boys were all drawn really pretty though.

I won’t lie because I’m rating this mostly off vibes but this is so dang cute. I really loved the beginning and the romance. I am not typically into roommates to lovers and friends to lovers only works for me sometimes but in Mao & Hisashi’s case it just worked so well. Also the art is absolutely beautiful.
I do wish we could’ve seen them interacting a little bit more and that they were college age vs in high school. Overall though the positives outweigh the negatives for me.
