These two are so emotionally unstable that their reactions to anything border on the extreme. And they're completely illogical, too. So, the doc loves the psycho and instead of fighting for him, even perfunctorily, he pretends to the psycho's dad that he's nothing more than a bored gold digger even though it means risking a charge of misconduct. At the very least! Right. Make that make sense? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And now we have emotional and psychological manipulation. I can't believe the friend who lent this to me called it a classic. I think I need to have a serious talk with her.

Well.
It was better than the second one.
The author seems to have been inspired by soap operas, though. I felt like I was reading a General Hospital episode at times.
Nothing really too objectionable is in this one except for something the doc says to Naoki's father at the kitchen table.
Still kind of feeling like this is an unhealthy relationship, but at the same time, I have no idea.
The whole idea that a relationship can't lead to something when you're ten years apart in age is just ridiculous. My grandparents were ten years apart in age and no one batted an eye. Yet when it's a gay relationship, its not okay? That's homophobic.
Edit: 2-24-2022. Upon reflection, this series makes gay/bi males look bad, so I'm reducing my rating for books 1 and 3, making them have the same rating as book 2.

I really like Dr. Takino's character and his relationships/personality in this manga. Definitely a more intriguing ending than the other ones. However, the dramatics of it were ridiculous!
