This story starts with a basic confession, and at first I thought that it was one of those cliche romances, confession, rejection and then the boy and girl fall in love. Yes, it is kinda like that, granted. But the in between points it connected, and how it tackled different things and then finally how it ended, is just beautiful.
Each and every character has given me, and I am sure the other readers too, some lessons, lessons we must learn from.
1. From Makato, we learned that the way you are and what you like, is YOUR normal, it should not be affected by what others say around you.
2. From Ryuji, we learned that sometimes giving up is for the better good.
3. From Aoi, we learned that we should choose what we want, and not let others affect us. For example, I'll give a common one, your career, the one I am personally facing, your parents should not affect what you want to do, and you should decide what YOU want for yourself.
The plot focuses on each character one at a time, from Makato to Ryuji to Aoi, showing there struggle, and finally how they reached their conclusion.
And ofcourse, there are fun elements too.
Overall, it was wholesome, with some sad elements and some tears in b/w. 10/10 would recommend
