This is truly awful. It appears to be written by a 12 year old using a crayon held in their ham-fist. There is no subtlety. Characters say the most unrealistic things just to drive the narrative, like in chapter 1, where Masa simply blurts out "Because! We've been classmates for 5 years straight now!" I mean who on earth would say anything like that?!?!?! It is all forced together and it does not appear in any way realistic. It is pre-pubescent wish fulfilment. I'll be dropping this.
