The characters here aren't stereotypical especially the uke. Haru actually grew on me. He didn't outright reject Kai nor really ignore him. Yes, he looked like he wasn't really serious at first and was like giving Kai false hopes but he was pretty honest with him as he was trying to navigate his feelings. He wasn't toying with Kai's feelings; he was just embarrassed as everything felt new to him. I get where Kai was coming from. I love how their personalities go together and how they can put up with each other. Kai can be so straightforward. Haru is so understanding of Kai. I like how they are able to accept boundaries, talk things out and ask for permission. I want a sequel where they go to college then open and manage a bakery.

I also like their friends Misaki and Saito. I like how Haru and Saito's dynamics are similar to Kai and Misaki's. Haru and Misaki's personalities contrast Kai and Saito's. I like how they're placed in their classes with their polar opposites. I appreciate how Saito always lends his ears to Haru and how Misaki is always looking out for Kai. They both give sound advices too. Misaki definitely knows what's going on since he suggested the ring. Haha. And I'm sure Misaki and Saito talked a lot about Haru and Kai. I hope those two get their own spin-off as I kinda ship them.

Oh, and I have a striped shirt similar to Haru's. (≧∀≦)
