Initial review: The demographic tag says Shounen, but with the story's themes, I think it would be much more appreciated by an older demographic. Short but sweet, humorous but mature. I expected that I would feel the same as I would in typical drama; especially with the premise sounding like a typical affair drama. No, as I read through the first stages of the story, I felt I had this toneless expression (much like Sakaki-san) when their baggage are being slowly hinted. This is not to say that it was a bad thing, I'm not sure if I am/will be making sense when I say that Ifelt emotional while also looking emotionless. It might be because I speed through reading the 24 chapters (I wish I could have took my time, but the story was just too compelling to make me move from a chapter to the next).

I like my drama manga to stir me up, I love/hate how it hits close to home when the story tackled past traumas.

I like how characters are acting human in their actions. Although their words, especially a 16-year-old's, have a bit too much wisdom for their age.

I would like to reread this.
