I really loved Tooru in Rules, so it was good to read his story. Though I accept this one as a favorite I can't read it too much! It's sad and makes me cry everytime!
I also loved A Moon in Name Only and the continuation!

I didn't like Shinomiya's character very much.
But the story itself was very touching and good. But I would have liked for it to just have more... well more I don't know... desire? Yes, I suppose that's it.

He was just so reckless with his body and didn't care for anything, being constantly bored.

Disappointed..

After seeing the great reviews i was like wow this must be really good. Yea, and it was nice and sad and all but it wasnt all that great. Theres like 3 chapters but only the first one is good but not that good. It didnt feel finished either.

I wasn't so sure when the manga started.. i thought it was going to be just another pretty boy. I was Wrong!.. It's not just about sex, the story keeps you interesting and the relationship is sweet. I was crying in the end, a definite must read.
Cute and then some.

Modern point of view and sober writing are Miamoto’s trademark. Even readers that are not into yaoi, but don’t mind reading about homosexual relationships might like her work, definitely not mainstream yaoi

Ahhh I just love her works. They're realistic and not all about sex like other yaoi. I can't think of anything more to say other than what has already been said, but just just read it.

Am sort of addicted to this series which i wanted to put off until everything or atleast in a sequence was finished. Needless to say i started reading and now i cannot stop, the hardest part is trying to guess who will end up with whom and their names...particularly when sometimes they look alike.
