Story: The story was entertaining to read through, the plot device of the usually oblivious Character A suddenly gaining the ability to read Character B's mind as a way of them finding out about the other party's feelings. It can also be appreciated that being able to tell what someone is thinking without their knowledge can be considered an invasion of privacy was acknowledged, thus making Tsutsumi's reaction when he finds out realistic. There was a very genuine relationship progression between Oomori and Tsutsumi throughout the six chapters, their bond is filled with mutual love and respect; a lovely healthy couple. Also, the typical office
...
setting is given an extra layer of uniqueness when you find out they work at a corporation in charge of a coffee shop. 8/10.
Art: Visually, this manga is great, the cover, in particular, is especially enticing. Our main leads are quite attractive; when Oomori sees Tsutsumi smile for the first time and thinks about how cute he is, you'll find yourself agreeing as well. The spicy scenes were exceptional; chapter 3 in particular, just- wow. Tsutsumi's legs, enough said. 8/10.
Characters: Both Oomori and Tsutsumi were wonderful to read about. Their personalities play off each other nicely. Tsutsumi's stern persona melting away when Oomori is the least bit affectionate with him is delightful. Their relationship is adorable! Most of the time, they are on equal footing, except when the other is given the power of telepathy of course. They work in different departments, and even though Tsutsumi's approval is required for Oomori's department's ideas to ascend to the executive level, there are no power imbalances the reader might have to concern themselves with. Although Tsutsumi's harsh treatment of Oomori is a little excessive at first, with the story going for the "I'm-mean-to-you-because-I-like-you trope", the effect is softened when you factor in his other reasons, and that they're in a professional work environment, and critique is to be expected. That part of their dynamic doesn't last beyond the first half of chapter one anyway. Tsutsumi also regrets it in retrospect, and it's hard to not forgive him once you see how earnest he is. 8/10.
Final Thoughts: An underrated BL with an amazing couple. Very down to earth, they seem like people you'd find in real life almost. 8/10.
