The end to such a beautiful story full of love, cuteness and healing I wished we got to see more of them as adults and having little babies 🥹 but it was still heartwarming to see Miyabi’s growth throughout ❤️

We see more of Miyabi's family in this volume, which is a very big contrast to events with Haruto's family. Miyabi still struggles with his idea of what family is and his and own insecurities, but he slowly opens up to Haruto about his fears and even his hopes for their future together. The proposal planning is hilarious, especially since both of them know it's coming, but it's also sweet how they're able to continue to push forward together even when there are some fairly loud voices (mostly from Miyabi's little brother, Yamato) putting more doubts in his head. Yamato seems to be another large contradiction where he wants Miyabi to be happy, but he continually believes that Miyabi is less than him solely because he's an omega rather than an alpha, and that doesn't even touch on what he did to him when they were both living with their parents. It seems like maybe Yamato also needs to make some changes and grow up a lot, rather than just following in his father's restrictive worldview.

I didn’t realize this was the end but I thought it was nice we got more of the brother and both families. I liked how they worked tougher through their fears of the future and towards their goal and what family meant and can mean in the future. It was very sweet and we got a short epilogue but I would have liked to see the brother in it. I feel like eventually they would have a nice relationship again. A gentler omegaverse story.

I really liked this and thought how it ended was good. The art is stunning. The chibis at the end are adorable. Miyabi and Haruto perfectly balance each other out. This would’ve been a perfect read if not for the ignoring of Yamatos behavior when Miyabi lived with his family. Why is something so serious ignored? I honestly wish it was never shown because it left a foul taste in my mouth.

Honestly, the best volume was the first one.

I know the author has a set amount of pages, but the overall plot and issues were rushed and not properly addressed in my opinion. As a whole, though, the series is still enjoyable and I just need to suspend my belief about therapy and abuse.

Aufarbeitung und der Situation entsprechend ein super Ende.
Insgesamt ist das eine überaus bewegende Reihe.

While I liked this volume more than the second, it still wasn't anything to write home about. Very basic.
