Wow, that murderer is strong to have killed two people with the edge of a painting. Why did he kill Shinohara? What was so special about the painting?

The beginning is pretty sad, with the whole wasted potential angle. But that ending was absolutely horrifying. Hinata learned his friend was murdered, sees Shinohara die, and now he gets murdered too!

Sure he gets time lept to the past, and now they get to spend time with Sora. But how will they figure out this mystery, with barely any clues?

Well, that took a big turn! I did not expect that much gore with that art style.
By the way, apparently this is actually BL? Should it get tagged as such?
If it is BL then it'll be interesting to see how the romance will be integrated, seeing as it isn't marketed as explicit BL.

It's not officially marketed nor listed as a BL work on book storefronts.
They're probably just trying to piggyback off the #創作BL tag for views.
BL tag is not something you "Piggyback" for views on a seinen magazine, non BL magazines are typically scared of having anything associated with gay because they are afraid to turn off viewers (especially in the context of two dudes). If they used that tag is because the author wanted it.

Regardless, that's the official account and drawn by one the authors themselves.

I know its rude, but I simply assumed it was done out of desperation since it's not exactly making any waves and the review count on amazon is rather on the low side compared to other newish series. That and I don't remember Big Gangan producing much (if at all) BL works.

Either way, if the author really did approve of the BL tag, then they should've done so in the beginning so it could've been labeled as BL accordingly. As you have said, it might be a disservice to current readers if the author suddenly change their genre halfway through. Especially for those who enjoy following series with two male leads without the romantic subtext (BL bait).

lol This is basically just a conspiracy. Also the author can do what they want, there is no rule you have to tag something as BL if you want to make it gay, especially in the context of Seinen and Josei which are aimed at adults, so they often taken more liberties in term of themes. The first chapter is about some dude time traveling to high school to save his childhood friend he's obsessed years later, wow can't believe the author may imply they see each other as more than friends.

The only reason this convo exists is because one is a dude instead of a girl. But again, regardless, that's what the author intended and the magazine allowed so it doesn't matter.
