| The story was well written. The characters were also well written. But, this really messes with my morals. I feel like what the Victorians may have felt when reading Dorian Gray. lol I liked everything about the story, including how the relationship is not actually shown as a romance we are meant to be aiming for. The relationship concludes in a way that looks like a happy ending, but is actually pretty uncertain how it might continue. I was not a fan of the teacher x student relationship. I wished the teacher could have been replaced by another student, but the writer properly explored the conflicts that may arise with a teacher being in love with his students. It didn't feel fetishized. I can't imagine this relationship being replaced by something else, while still managing to have the same conflict. This manga was more about theme exploration than about an ideal couple, so I was able to enjoy it for that. I wish the art was as bold as the story. While the art is good, I wish it had been used in a way that didn't just look like a shoujo manga, and instead heightened the intensity of the story. |
