Description
From DMP: It's been four years since Hirofumi and Daigo started living together. But because of his psychological scars, Daigo gradually starts inposing frightening restraints on Hirofumi! Caught in a cage of love and madness, what will Hirofumi's ultimate answer be? At last, the conclusion to the popular Dear Myself series!
Also contains the short stories "Last Spring," depicting the alien Hirofumi from those two lost years; "Kiss on a Honeymoon," the aftermath for Ayane and Fumiya, and the now legendary chapters of "Papa's 18"!
I love the prequel Dear Myself, so cute and interesting. The sequel is just plain bad. Taiga becomes crazy and Hirofumi turns dumb. A random girl turns up and almost break their relationship pretty easily. After all that drama, the solution is just as stupid. They should have sticked with the prequel.
NO. you get that he's in an emotionally abusive relationship. I wasn't vibbing it at all. And all of his friends blamed him for Daigo's problem. They took the o.k ending of Dear Myself and ruined it. Not o.k
Her art has an interesting contrast of sharp facial angles and choppy hair with long and smooth bodies.
But it's the psychology of both this concluding piece and the original, Dear Myself, that gets my fascination. When Diago finally finds happiness with Hiro, he can't stand to let him out of his sight, due to his deep trauma of the last person he loved never coming back. . .There were a few scenes of him suffering from his own thoughts that I found poetic and heart wrenching. And Hiro's fear deals with his memories, or lack thereof.
I applaud Eiki-sensei in accomplishing this feeling from me multiple times (The Art of Loving! *gasp!*) even though I don't go gah-gah over her art style. That is talent: To evoke feelings in a reader, even a read that isn't particularly drawn to the art. There was something about her words, her series of events and the eyes that made me connect.
Fear can powerfully twist love into something that pushes us away from happiness. There were a few personal 'truths' that I could relate too in this story by Eiki-sensei, and she did an excellent job at weaving her loose and sketchy and elongated style around thoughtfully delivered words. A lot of the wisdom, came from two likeable women in the story!
I found it believable. And it made me think, who is anybody else to say what is 'right' for a relationship or 'healthy?' This story subtly addresses this issue.
i thought the prequel was really cute even though i don't like boyxboy type of stories, so when i read this i thought it was going to be just as cute but sadly i was wrong, i thought the sequel was really bad -.-'
This was certainly the best one out of all of them for me, because we can finally see a conclusion on the couples from before and that papa story was just so funny...poor guy.
