I came to read this for the beautiful cover, but the content doesn't live up to its pretty premise.
The whole story revolves around what happened in the abandoned house that day that traumatized Natsugami.
The plot led us to believe that something really bad happened to Natsugami's first love - Aki (e.g: sexual assault) which hinders Natsugami's relationship with his love interest Miyoshi who has confessed to him.
But this turns out to be a misuderstanding and Aki was just having rough sex with his boyfriend!? Like it makes the story turn into some sort of a bad joke... Like if you wanna go with
...
dark, twisted plot (hinting sexual abuse and such) then you should stick with it rather than water down it in a way like: "Oh it was just a misunderstanding. Jokes on you, readers".
This way of storytelling is really bad.... The chemistry between Miyoshi and Natsugami isn't all that great either.
It doesn't make you feel good but it isn't the traumatic, twisted, dark, depressive dose one might be looking for as well.
It's a half-baked story really... What a shame for the pretty cover.... It holds so much potential to be a good read but the writing is so off.
