The cruelest thing about love is it can't happen with just anyone.

For a happy-go-lucky Otaka Chiyomi, the person who seized her heart just had to be a classmate who was contrary to her in everything but gender, Ezaki Soko, whose smile was all it took for Chiyomi to throw away all happiness in her life for.

That was only where this romantic heavy little series started. "Gunjou" explored the consequences of being overcome by intense love and pride, so much so that they fucked up your whole life. How can Chiyomi continue to love her old classmate after she heartlessly made her into a murderer, ...

I've first read this manga when I was abt 15-16 maybe? and at that time I was already having hard times accepting my own sexuality and this manga didn't help at all. You may say that this isn't a manga for that anyways but listen:
My main problem isn't about two women having a toxic relationship, it's how Nakamura executed this. The lesbian character, Chiyomi, keeps talking about how she feels bad bc she thinks she's not enough ...
