Synopsis

In his final year of high school, Taichi Ichinose finds himself sharing a class with his popular childhood friend Touma Mita for the third year in a row. Meanwhile, Taichi is hesitant to interact with his shy and clumsy classmate, Futaba Kuze, despite seeing her as a reflection of himself.

However, after an encounter in the library brings them together, Taichi discovers that Futaba has feelings for Touma. Initially harboring doubts at the prospect, he decides to help her after she declares an emotional yet firm decision to change. As spring comes into full bloom, the three classmates find themselves in a relationship entangled by intricate emotions and personal conflicts while they navigate through an uncertain future.

Ao no Flag changed the way I view love.

When I read "Ao no Flag" for the first time I had a mixture of feelings, it was something I had never experienced with any other work and it was much more when I finished it completely.

And the fact is that .....
How can you put into words a manga that manages not only with its dialogues but also with its art, the looks, the silences and the fear reflected in the faces of the characters to represent you in a different way what we know as love.

When you read the synopsis of this manga it seems that ...

I can't say anything after finishing reading this manga, I thought this manga was about an ordinary story about schoolboy romance but I just got a surprise at the end of the story. the story was also interesting at the beginning until the middle, but it seemed to change 180 degrees from the conflict that began to open, the past of the cast was really crazy.
