No puedo creerme que en la secuela esta que la sensei hizo, y que no nombro porque no existe, hiciera la basura que hizo. Me da rabia porque no pega con el tono de la obra original y porque no se lo merecen. Kato e Iwaki son amor, son inmortales y están juntos para siempre siendo viejos y de ahí no me bajo.

Especially adore the first chapters on the re-telling of how Katou and Iwaki first met before they saw each other again during the audition for Haru Wo Daiteita.

Yousuke kun (Katou's nephew) is a super cute little boy. This is how Katou must have looked like when he was young. It's really endearing to see Yousuke so attached with Iwaki san and how Iwaki was acting all motherly too. Lol

Iwaki has decided to go independent and not to renew his contract with his current management. He wish to build his own production company.

I really don't know why the artstyle is so wacky in the first few chapters but if you just get through the first 5-6 then it really changes for the better! Embracing love, especially if we take into consideration that it was written and illustrated back in 1999-2009, is a very well-written story, not perfect but very enjoyable! The main characters (Iwaki and Katou) really draw you in with their personalities and you just can't put the story down. Of course, you'll have to keep in mind that this is a yaoi so many explicit scenes are included.

Repeated review.

Okay, back in the day, I loved this series. Why? Because gay. That’s literally the only reason I loved it, alongside a lot of other yaoi manga. But then, I got older, smarter, and learned some fucked up shit about life, and then, I returned to most of the yaoi manga I once read. And absolutely hated a lot of them.

All of them, that I ended up hating later in life, involved incest, toxic relationships, rape, borderline rape, slavery, underage, and cringe. You decide which of those fits best with this series.
