i love this manga... i love shin and seiji sm. plus this whole thing where you expect shin to be stoic but he's instead very soft and caring. you'd think seiji would be "classic bl straight man swayed by persistent hot boy", but he's actually a loving, insecure guy who finds a lot of comfort in shin. it's not perfect, and i'm not totally convinced that seiji is with shin for all the right reasons. by this i mean - seiji was clearly lonely at the beginning of the manga, and ended up relying on shin for comfort/literal warmth. which is sweet, and i understand that this is often how relationships go, but deeply i want mutual love. i'd love for seiji to be a little more convincing in his desire to stay with shin "forever," but i'm not really sure how this works. still! a good read
