A solid but incredibly middling yaoi manga. As a fan of this author's works, I find this one of the more boring ones. Nothing makes it 'bad' though.
The art is nice as always, and the character designs are easy to differentiate and nice to look at. The story primarily focuses on the NEET seme (who, depending what you think of pathetic and puppy-love characters, can be interpreted as annoying or endearing), and you don't get much of a feel for the uke. In addition, the uke's conflicts and miscommunications actively made me dislike him (not because they were necessarily devious or anything, they were just
...
kind of pathetic). In the end it's a story about two grown men who live with their parents and are incredibly codependent on eachother...in what becomes a very wholesome relationship, but it's a lot of story beats you don't expect to find in a BL about adults.
You might enjoy this a lot if you like pathetic characters; if not, this might be a boring read. The jokes are fine but don't pack a lot of punch, and the events and conflicts are rather minor. It's just a very solidly average yaoi.
(The bonus oneshot near the end is Very funny and endearing, though. If you don't find yourself liking this story but generally enjoy this mangaka, I'd recommend skipping to the end and reading it. It's a short story about two highschoolers, one closeted gay and the scary-looking, misunderstood ally who is a great friend.)
