I have been loving the story line so far and seeing the characters grow. The only reason it's not 5 stars. Is the title page in one of the chapters is very fanservice heavy. Mami and her 2 friends posing in lingerie. I'm a sex averse asexual so I stay away from spicy contect and fanservice contect. This page was so out of the norm for the story line and the type of story telling it really yanked me out of enjoying it for the last bit. Hoping the last book doesn't ruin the series for me. So far so good though.

Chapter 48 was so sweet. Other than that, I felt like Seiya’s lecture went on way too long, and I don’t like the reasoning Kaito gave for Kensuke’s homophobia (while I’m sure this happens, it also perpetuates the narrative of queer folks being pedophiles and sexual predators). Shingo’s arguments also are arguments that bigots make to perpetuate their toxic perspectives that put marginalized folks in danger, so I don’t agree, and I worry about putting these words out there for young folks to read. Also, it is clear that the solution is polyamory or relationship anarchy, but I doubt that’s the way the story is going…
