Popo's manga / #Music(2)

Ch5.5 The great thing about this story is that both characters are fully fleshed out. They don't feel like caricatures or one-dimensional or cardboard uke/seme whose personality/existence completely revolves around their partner. They have their own lives dreams, wishes, fears and insecurities they have to deal with while slowly falling in love with each other and trying to make their relationship work. And it's also really rare in the fast paced, sex fueled BL world for a story to be very thought-provoking. I never really considered the fact that society simultaneously looks down upon and tries to baby people we don't consider "normal" like those with disabilities or those who don't behave a certain way. It's really sad to see Isuzu live such a rigid life so that he can be regarded as an independent adult and then get rejected by partners because he seems too well put together. And Touka is a barely an adult who is trying to understand himself and his place in the world but gets ostracized because people are jealous of his innate talent and make assumptions about how he is wasting it away by their standards even though they know nothing about him.

MC desperately searches for his soulmate in all the wrong people. (Hint hint, he's right next to you buddy!)
