Very good story. Kind of pulls back oddly right at the climax (where's my smooch?) but the characters and their ways of coping were very interesting.

@Purplelibraryguy And it's still not ended yet. There are still actually 2 more chapters XD

 

[Purplelibraryguy]

@Symuri: Thanks! I probably would never have noticed the rest. Guess I better follow this.

This is apparently not a oneshot, but it was scanlated as one, and seeing as how it's been six years I don't think we'll ever get to see the rest of it. The ending of chapter one is kinda weird if you take it as a oneshot, all build-up and no release, so I wouldn't recommend picking it up unless you're prepared for that.

I normally skip the first chapter, but I'd recommend not doing so on this one. Reading 2 before 1 made chapter 1 kind of uncomfortable to read.

Chapter 2, wow. Saitou Ken generally draws innocent stories populated by characters who are basically good, so this is...different.

Spoiler

The male lead has serious abusive and sociopathic tendencies. It was subtly hinted at in chapter 1, with some of his actions (pulling Mano-san's hair, teddy bear incident), but the reader may have been inclined to put that to the usual shoujo manga tropes. Not so. He's fucked.

Woah, this author's works... from bittersweet With!! to sweet Kawaii Hito to twisted Tendou-ke Monogatari... I guess I can see where this came from, but it's still so weird >.<
