This is one of the most wholesome and non-toxic relationships I have ever come across in BL comics. So, our protagonist Saegusa Issei lives a 'boring' life as a high school senior. He doesn't have any motivation to do better in his academics despite knowing that he has the potential. Here comes the new transfer student, Arochi Tooru, who stands out because of his unique hair colour and facial expressions. What initially started as a curiosity on Saegusa's part of wanting to know more about Arochi turned into something more as they spent more time with each other. They motivate and support each other to
...
achieve their dreams while being deeply in love with each other.
What I really liked about these characters is how vocal they are about their problems and thoughts. Their relationship is consensual and balanced, not like most BLs these days where one overwhelms the other both emotionally and physically. These kinds of stories reinstate my belief in love and mutual affection.
From a critical standpoint, I guess the only field where people might find it lacking is art. The art is great but not extraordinary. The characters look like high school seniors and suit their personalities very well.
I highly recommend this manga to all the BL readers. It's also a good one to pick up for beginners. This is the kind of manga that is capable of lifting your prejudice against same-sex love. It's beautifully written and illustrated. I hope it gets adapted into a drama or an anime sometime. I will definitely read more of this author's works.
