This was a quick, but not so easy read.
I have lots and lots of one shot Manga, so I KNOW it's possible to bring a wholesome story within a limited page number.
Sadly it wasn't the case here.
I think Ashihara is quite the problematic type, I love to read about. But the problems the couple has weren't solved. One partner only accepted the other is head-strong.
Which can be romantic, but I hate to see that the relationahip works out cause one of the partners is not as strong as the other is stubborn. I think it's sad Ashihara didn't get to show his soft and caring side.
Maybe he has none...? Well, we will never know.
