because my tears keep on flowing. The best part in this manga is how the author connected the intro and the ending. If this was only not a volume long, and has more depth, I bet the story would be a tattoo in my brain.

When a BL story ends at a crucial moment and you wish to read more, this manga shows you exactly how things go down. And then you cry. And you cry a lot. The last chapter of the series (not the extra) made me feel very miserable even after I stopped crying. It's ridiculous. Also, before that, the chapter in which they were both 28 yo until they were 36 yo was very impactful and depressing. I literally felt my stomach drop while reading it. There's one thing I can tell about this series: it's so fluffy and engaging, that you end up having too many feels about it. A masterpiece.

damn so adorable and angsty in the same time, i cry like a baby

It's simply amazing.

Short, sweet story with its sore painful moments. Couldn't help but cry a lot and I will cry again and again whenever I remember the last part and the art the mangaka used to illustrate those moments, really good job wrapping it up with those scenes.

I think a length of only 1 volume does not fit for this type of manga. It almost never works, unless you're a genius in writing, but sadly it's not the case with this one. It was rushed and lacking, there was simply not enough room to unfold the characters' inner thoughts, emotions, doubts, development, nothing. The whole manga felt like it was just a long trailer for something big, that was never written... It was simply unsatisfactory for me. Which is a shame, because the characters were interesting and likeable (even Akira), their dynamic and chemistry worked well, there were several heart-warming and cute scenes, plus the art is really pretty, but in the end it was too rushed.

There are many cliches to point out. The relationship was pretty off but very heart-warming. I kinda relate to Nishi as I always have imaginations and was naive even in my teens. Okay for Ito, he at first thought of being rejected by Nishi in their late teens. But in their late twenties, it’s his turn to be the one rejecting him bc of his amateur behavior. Like make up your mind! At one part where he noticed the kid, could that be his child from his ex wife?
I never read a story involving older couple in same sex relationship before. It’s un normal but heartbreaking at a same time of what happened. It’s a bit like the end Titanic where it end tragically but they once again live happily ever after.

Oh, wow. I've just been through a roller coaster of emotions, I felt like I was in a really good BDSM play complete with aftercare. The use of the imagery of the "white line game" from start to end was so damn powerful, I don't think I'm going to be forgetting it any time soon.

Really, stop reading through the reviews and go and grab your favorite pillow and a few tissues and head for your reading nook.

I hope an English publisher picks this title up. I'd definitely want this on my shelf.

I wouldn't put this manga into my list of favourites but it certainly did touch me in various ways that's hard to describe. Its execution isn't perfect; I find the way it handled drama a bit clumsy and amateur, but above all that, the emotions it did project are truly genuine and heartfelt and I appreciate that. The ending made me sob real tears, not gonna lie, but then again,

Also, I love this author's sense of humour, and her chibi drawings are so cute and hilarious!
