Welcome Back, Aureole by Takatsu
4.0
The story follows two boys from childhood into the end of high school, and there's a lot of time jumps and POV switches. It's definitely a slow-burn and also low-romance (the managaka uses the phrase "too-few love scenes" in the afterword) - there's only ever a HINT that the characters might have kissed. It being a book about children/teenagers falling for each other, I don't mind this lack of anything explicit.
I will say I'm afraid this isn't the most memorable manga I've ever read - I finished it this morning and can't remember some aspects already. But it's slow and sweet, so hopefully it finds its target audience.
CW for parents fighting and mild domestic abuse, parental divorce, some wet-dreams are hinted at, and a small amount of non-con in the form of a kiss
