An Invisible Scar

by Tomo Kurahashi, Ekaterina Mikulich (Translator)

Katase ist leitender Manager in einer großen Werbeagentur. Er ist erfolgreich und sowohl bei den Frauen als auch bei den Männern sehr beliebt. Doch niemand weiß, dass er vor Jahren einen schlimmen Unfall hatte und seitdem niemandem mehr über den Weg traut. So nahbar und kollegial er nach außen hin scheint, innerlich ist Katase einsam und distanziert. Seine Kollege Shibutani ist der Einzige, dem er sich irgendwie ein bisschen nahe fühlt. Fast so, als würde er ihn von irgendwoher kennen. Aber kann das überhaupt sein?

04.2020:

Shibutani and Katase are colleagues. At first Shibutani avoids Katase because he (Shibutani) is a quiet person, but when they eventually become closer Katase unexpectedly falls for him. Shibutani seems to not think bad of him for sleeping with so many people like everyone else so Katase feels safe with him. Katase is trying to forget the sexual and mental abuse by his father by sleeping with everyone who is willing, and if it's profitable for his job he doesn't say no, either. But he can't/won't involve himself emotionally and doesn't want to form a bond with his partners or care much about them. Which is understandable considering what he's been through. Yet, when it comes to Shibutani, who he's fallen in love with, he forces himself on him. While his past provides a reason for his behaviour towards Shibutani, it should not act as an excuse.

The main story is great, but the side story kind of rushes too much.

I bet it could've been sweet as well but in the way it was told in the way and pace it was told, it didn't hook me.

However, I couldn't bring myself to just give 3 stars, but I see this as more 3.5

Since it's their first volume I'm looking forward to other stories from them!

Es un buen manga, es bastante rápido y de lectura cómoda, el problema de este es la poca profundidad y el poco avance en las personalidades de los personajes, los conflictos simplemente parecen resolverse con el poder del amor, eso incluye los traumas del pasado de los personajes, lo que vuelve un poco aburrida la historia y demasiado rápido su final.

Me gustó, pero siento que paso todo muy rápido, creó que daba para que fuese un poco mas largó, debieron profundizar más elo que había sucedido en el pasado y solo eso le baja unas estrellas.

Gráficos hermosos y una trama entretenida. Como un chico descubrió sus propios sentimientos, acostumbrado a la rutina.

To be honest, I liked the side story more than the main story :')
