I read reviews and expect something extraordinary lmao
But It was just some unrealistic boring cliche with unlikable main couple.
Story start out of nowhere and till the end I still don't get what make that dude even date Akira in the first place, we just suddenly see oh a straight guy just so carazy for Akira out of blue , maybe bc he is pretty like a girl, *screaming cliche* 🙄 and pls he used to only date women and dream of marriage, even though of dating a guy going to be diffcult for a old fashioned guy like him but he is so okay about everything and he is the one who is more into it and even want to married lol give me a break with this delulu unrealistic drama.
I don't even find it funny, joke is cringe and Akira is annoying af.
I care and want to see more of side characters instead of main couple, it say a lot 😂
But i like main character grandparents so much tho

I enjoyed the characters, but the story felt rushed. I didn't feel like the characters were cliche exactly, but more like they weren't fully fleshed out. I could tell there was more there but I just wasn't getting it. I also would have liked to see the different plot threads go a bit farther and be more fleshed out.

My only complaint about this manga is that I felt the romance was too fast, but from that point onwards it was very realistic about the relationship and the hardships same-sex couples must endure in our society, but also as individuals with personal issues. Love it.

Kunieda Saika-sensei ranks very high on my bias list, and one of the reasons for that is this immensely incredible piece of work which I've lost count of how many times I've revisited time and time again. The main characters are absolutely the biggest assets that the manga's got; no reader will not end up adoring them in the end. The side characters are also very interesting, and the author's humour played wondrously at breathing life into the whole story. It's very heart-warming, not in the cutesy fluffy school-boy love kind of way, but in a more realistic perspective that grown-up adults will experience. Watch how people come to meet, then fall in love, then overcome very real obstacles in life while creating bonds with fellow human beings along the way. The artwork is absolutely a personal bonus for me, despite how some people could find it unappealing or whatnot. Everyone must definitely read this.

Being one of my all time favorites, this manga have all the things I usually look for. Realistic story, good art, and likable characters. I really love Kuneida Saika, and as someone who has probably read all of her scanlated work, I can clearly say that this is the best one.

Unfortunately I’m bad at explaining, so I don’t want to spoil this amazing manga for you. Just read it, and you will understand what I mean.

Some parts are really realistic and I'm always giggling. ^^ I would definitely recommend this, even though the art isn't what I'm usually into, it's actually very clean and neat. So read this, for sure.

This is one of the best yaoi I've ever read. I've waded through a lot of cliche crap in order to read a gem like this. It's thoughtful, realistic, and truely funny. In fact, this is one of the best romantic comedies I've ever read, managing to be equally romantic and funny. Don't miss the sequel, it's just as good.

I really enjoyed this- it's a fraction better than Kaze no Yukue, but I'm not gonna split hairs over that. This is also a beautiful story.
I normally avoid mangas that have flaming bishounen ukes and bisexual salaryman type brute semes.... you know how the stereotype goes, yadayadayada etc.
BUT in this case the story and humour just made it all irrelevant to me.
This will remain in my mind for a long time. Highly recommended to anyone who loves mature yaoi.

I love the main story - Deux press titles it "Future Lovers, volume 1". A perfect mix of quirky humour, adult jokes and unexpected plot twists that are Kunieda sensei's trademark. Eagerly awaiting the release of volume 2.
However I found the oneshot "Winter Rabbit", which takes up the last third of the book, to be not quite up to the mangaka's usual standard - hence the slightly lower rating.

Ah, these characters are definitely not perfect, and neither is their relationship perfect. Kento is a traditional stick in the mud who's in denial, Akira is a compulsive liar and drama queen, and they fight constantly. Nevertheless, these two are perfect for each other. Kunieda-sensei never lets up in showing both their weaknesses, their tenderness, and the growing pains that real gay couples go through. I like how she (he?) doesn't resolve everything in one volume, but the plot doesn't feel dragged out, either. It's a rare yaoi that can make me laugh and cry, and both this and its sequel did both! Waaa~ I want another sequel!
