This has changed me. I began this less than an hour ago, as a simple story to read before I planned on gaming a bit. But instead, I found myself reading chapter 4 with a smile, having already teared up twice thanks to some really emotional and traumatic moments. But it still wasn’t “life changing”. Until chapter 5. Maybe, if you’re comfortable with your gender and all, this won’t affect you that much. But for some reason, as Arima grabbed Taiga and screamed his frustrations about himself and his gender, questioning everything, it broke me. At first it was just a few tears but then I kinda sat there for a while, crying. I have never felt more… shaken than I did then. I feel like I might just tear up thinking about it. Don’t even get me started on Taiga. I went from disliking him to absolutely loving him. They’re both amazing, broken characters that try their hardest to work together. This is one of the best stories I’ve read and I can’t wait to return to this and cry. I’m very happy that I chose to read it. It’s a masterpiece. 5/5
after hearing about this mangas authors death it feels even more special and important. Like real emotions was put into there characters. I wonder what the author used to be like. A really great read. I shead so many tears... :,,,)
I was hoping for a season 2 but then i found out that the mngaka died on 2020 huhuhu. Rest in peace sensei, this masyet piece will be forever in our heart
The art was so good and the story line too!! I like the characters development as well as the twost with taiga fatehr and arima!!
Trigger warning: gRAPE not by main character but a “trusted” adult from Arima yuu’s childhood. How did he get parole for graping a child?!?!
This story was so cute. I loved their little date at the end. The ML’s development was so good! He grew to understand Yuu ( Maria). The ML who was forced to be a girl as a child due to his mother and then graped as well. Grew to be someone afraid of his masculine and feline side not knowing who he was. He danced wearing woman’s clothes but was too afraid to perform as a male. The MC knew it was love at first sight even though he thought he was a girl but that didn’t stop him. He confessed! The ML didn’t believe it. I know he was so hurt and traumatized from his upbringing. But I love the approach on boys love. They didn’t hide away from it and the MC even announced it out loud multiple times and got a nickname “homo boy” but the people who gave him that name apologized because they misunderstood but it wasn’t a misunderstanding. Because he said what’s wrong with liking him that way? It’s so comforting and and comfortable.
