A common theme, childhood friends to lovers, and has some genuinely funny moments so far. But somewhat like the type of yaoi I avoid, there is the frustrating and honestly stupid imo, "I hate this! You're/I'm a perv or jerk for liking this... PLEASE do it some more!" We know it's fiction, but it should be believable, and the sex scenes aren't. I'm an actual gay guy. Despite the clean, good looking art, I would not continue reading this except other reviewers thankfully shared there's at least a significant twist to look forward to. Otherwise, I would drop it 100%.
I'm tired and disappointed by the

The art style is beautiful and consistent in the chapters I've read although sometimes I confuse some of the secondary male appearances because they are very similar to my eye. The mains, however? They're outstanding, Tsubaki is large, fierce and manly, while Kabuto is beautiful and small. In fact, this character looks like an updated version of Hisoka from Yami no Matsuei. Clearly, the two become very fond of each other, but because of their states, a living being and ghost, plus a somewhat other love interest in the mix.... I have no idea how this will end. And that's a good thing, whatever happens,

5 or less was my original rating as this had one of my most disliked type of secondary characters in anime or manga: those who ignore all the boundaries of others, especially when it is used as some kind of warped comedy relief.
I eventually chose 6 because the story had an interesting premise and a "fast start" between the principles, Mitsuki and Seijiro. Albeit, maybe too fast a start, but you soon found out not only "why" that was so, but how Seijiro's past continued his submission of overly amorous attention. In the end, its a sweet story about opening oneself to not just physicality ...

As a gay guy, as a returning manga reader, this is one of the fewer newer series I've read that I like for the realism...for the most part. These are two guys well into their adulthood, no super effeminate or child-like ukes. There are men who are attracted to other men. They are not apologetic, they don't do the infuriating and stereotyping insult "but you're pretty like a girl so it's okay". There's no shock or surprise by an attraction or offer. Let me tell you, this happens all the time, not just for sex, but also for attraction, interest in a potential life partner.
