Thank you so much again for picking this up!
Honestly I'm not a huge fan of past loves in manga, I'm more of a childhood friend to lovers enjoyer; but I don't hate it. I just feel like very few know how to write it as normal as it should be in life. Most make it some sort of drama inducing thing, or a dark foreboding topic.
Here it's just normal/ bittersweet, with a tinge of fondness thrown in. It just feels so natural. In around 20 years of reading Yuri I can only count on MAYBE two hands the amount that handled this topic so eloquently. See most of "Inui Ayu-sensei's" work for great examples of this as well.
This is truly (so far) a masterpiece. In my opinion anyways.
Thanks again!
