Just reading this manga itself reveals the time period it was made in and I thinks that's perfectly fine. When I look back at other Manga made around this time I feel like this one really shines through. The art style is a perfect bridge that allows all other aspects of this Manga to fit together. The story itself is short but its quickly packed full within the 6 chapters. I would of honestly enjoyed a bigger time skip in the epilogue considering its such a short read, I think that would of allowed me to imagine more of a story in my head during ... that missing time
If you're a fan of Yaoi this is a must read even ignoring the fact that you can read this in under 15 minutes and enjoy it to the fullest in that fast read time.

This is one of the first yaoi stories that got me into the Fujoshi world. It hit close to home with personal issues so I grew fond of these characters quickly. I've read this manga many times throughout the years and always enjoy rereading it. I've owned this manga and I've gotta say I still enjoy it to this day. I recommend it for any yaoi lover!

The story is good, the art is great, the characters are interesting, it's fun to read, and overall it makes me want to read it again and again. I like how focused the story revolved around one couple. ... I'm not as into the type of yaoi where they throw it a couple other short yaoi stories at the end. Seems like a waste of space that this manga didn't involve.

Thematically, it's poignant and life-affirming. Very sweet and uplifting message. I loved the ending. It kind of feels like "Blue Velvet" a little bit.

It is a very short manga, though, and while I wouldn't say that it fails to to justice to the gravity of the dark subject matter, this story goes by quickly. We don't get much of an opportunity to get inside the characters' heads, and feel what they're feeling; we're kind of speed-running from plot-point to plot-point. It might have been more impactful if we got to spend more time with the characters, and be privy to their thoughts beyond narration of ... what is happening/summarizing what happened. But perhaps it was intentional to have the characters loosely-defined enough for readers to be able to identify with them

I would recommend it to yaoi fans who have been through a lot, and struggle with feeling pessimistic.
