Mixed Feelings
The idea and base of this story was ok. I didn't think that Yoneda (the author) went the right way. This story was supposed to focus on Shima and Togawa, and she sort of left them behind when things just got started. At first it was all about sex, and when the love finally started blossoming, the attention went over to a completely different character ??? Why ?????? Whyyyy

Yoneda would have to add more to the characters in order to make them memorial. The only character I found interesting was Shima, but he still wasn't very out of the ordinary (in comparison to general manga characters). The characters just kept on showing the same reactions. At some point they would open up a little more and show a tiny bit of a "new" side of themselves, but other than that.. They never opened up as much as well written characters would.

The only things I liked about this manga was the incredible dialogue, the emotional scenes, sex scenes and the fact that nO ONE SAID "BUT WE'RE BOTH MEN". That last thing is so so important holy shit. This universe is already halfway set in the "homosexual side of the world", so homosexuality isn't seen as a sin and is accepted. Well, it definitely isn't considered normal there, but it's the same as the homosexual side in the real world: accepted. Instead of discussing the most cliché thing in yaoi and shounen ai ("but we're both men") they're are bringing up real issues with homosexuality. This following example is kind of spoilery, **but they would talk about stuff like family and having kids**. Bonus points to Doushitemo Furetakunai because of that.

Overall the manga was fine. I didn't find most of it that "new" or interesting, but this manga did manage to make me clap and cheer once in a while.
