First of all: THIS IS SUCH A SWEET SWEET STORY OMG I didn't expected that things would be so smooth and cute, everything in this manga is just right. The plot goes like this: Uematsu (40 years old) is a workaholic, due to that he eventually lost interest in maintain a relationship with his family, and ended up divorced. Since he doesn't know how to cook, he goes three days a week to have dinner in a restaurant. Asahikawa (22 years old I think) works in that restaurant and notices that, that salaryman that comes often to eat looks really tired, and found himself in
...
need to try to cheer him up, by bringing any kind of conversation.
As the days goes by, Uematsu notices that he feels better when talking to Asahikawa, he thinks it's like his therapy time, because he forgot how to talk to other people outside than work, he is just excited about this new ¿friend?.
As he becomes more like a lively person, everyone at Uematsu work space notices that there's something changing in his attitue, in his aura. He looks more energized even when the work day is over.
The bond between Uematsu and Asahikawa get stronger, they exchange contact information and eventually they end up going out in a date.
That's all I can write without any spoilers.
It's so well handled this thing about age differences, but this time for my surprise it isn't approached in a negative way: Uematsu is glad that he is older, so he can think about this relationship calmly. He have the experience, and he knows what Asahikawa feels about him. In fact (SPOILER!) he isn't surprised at all when Asahikawa tells him that he is bi and have a crush on him. He managed the whole situation pretty wise, he didn't doubt or exagerated this age difference thing. Asahikawa is an adult too, and besides that he is almost always flushed because of how cool (from his perspective) Uematsu is, he is aware of his choice, even there is an explanation of why Uematsu caught his attention.
I've got to say that there's nothing special in the art, but the story really compensate it.
There's nothing much to say about characters, at some point the daughter of Uematsu appears, but this is in order to help him to know his feelings about Asahikawa.
The enjoyment is 100/10 for me as well, I don't care if you think I'm exagerating, I think this is such a heartwarming and calm manga.
Anyway, I hope this review does it justice to this masterpiece.
Please read it! :)
