Beautiful storytelling and scenes. No other words to describe this. I'd love to see this adapted to a movie.
I don't get why there are readers who found the plot and the characters monotonous because it's not at all. I understand the art is not really beautiful one, but I think when you feel the art is not good somehow you unconsciously focus more on the plot instead. I've seen so many good art but they failed at storytelling area.
If I have to compare it with Eigyou Nika! that I read before this one, this has more depth in it, the realness of Iga's relationship with his dad and the uncertainty of becoming and officially taking the path of a queer, the agony of having feelings and possible romantic relationship with someone ten years younger (Iga is 32 while the other party is 22), the characters in this book is very 3D, very real person with their dreams and worries and hopes. I cried and felt happy for them. I could also relate to the Iga's relationship with his dad because I know how it feels.

Overview:
Bruh esto carecía de sentido.
Los capítulos 1-3 fueron tan interesantes que me dejaron con ganas de saber más. Sin embargo, durante los capítulos 3 y 4 se crea una brecha tan grande donde no solo se pierde la coherencia, sino que se siente como una historia completamente diferente. Y ni hablar de los últimos 3 capítulos, los cuales fueron súper extraños. ¿Qué fue?
En resumen, un romance slow-burn aceptable.

A história, é um pouco cliché, mas está super fofinha.
