Really good and worth a re-read one of these days. Well-developed romances and also nice platonic relationships between unexpected characters, even with the ML. They never feel like they detract from the story though, even if it is about the titular couple, as it always relates back to them in some way. Towards the end though is where you will really feel the pressure as conflicts arise, especially for the main couple. Be relieved to know that this conflict is handled maturely and with much thoughtfulness and will not ultimately leave you with a bad taste in the end. This is especially helped by ML trying hisbest efforts not to hurt MC and using strategies like saying "I will leave the conversation before I say anything irreversible" and MC standing up for herself and her needs. There is also a moment that was about to turn sexual (but not for good reasons!) which was handled really well and does not leave you thinking "wow so in the end this was just a shallow trope-indulging manga that doesn't care to build a genuine relationship between two people trying to work together." Although you may be put off by second ML's role in this and say "she should've been with second ML instead," I'd disagree, because I'd argue the ML deserves to have his bad moments even if he is older as he's human too, and it's well written (plus I already have my 100% heartwarming, closely-bonded romances that are also age gap so it's not like every age gap romance has to be the most transcendental, happy-go-lucky bond ever).

There are some aspects of this story that make it not quite perfect though. First, comedic moments are often ill-timed and provoke questions as to what's actually going on. For instance, far into the story when the main relationship is established the MC saying that ML "treats her like he's her guardian" because of a lack of advances seems to be something that's not to be joked with, especially with a manga that deals with heavy themes and generally tries to address many aspects of their age gap relationship (a process that is expected to be uncomfortable and thought-provoking). Luckily, this doesn't happen very often to be a glaring issue. Second, while I appreciate a rather "heroic" MC it can be puzzling as to why she cares so much for certain characters. And... that's about it honestly.
