Nagisa??? Are we ok, Nagisa??? Did you loose the fucking plot and finally remembered what you were writing by the end of chapter 4, Nagisa??????

This was probably my 3nd least favorite Nagisa original so far (I'm reading s&n right now and....), but it's fine. I think it had some cute moments and though the slow burn felt really slow it didn't bother me too much. By the end I was feeling a bit mid on this one but I will be rereading it when it finally come out in English. That being said, I got problems:

1). The story and characters felt a bit Junjo Romantica-y to me and I have mixed feelings about that because I've grown to have mix to negative feeling about Junjo Romantica <3.
2). I know I didn't mind the slower burn in this one, but it was mainly the run-around Sora and Kengo were giving each other that just felt pointless to me.
3). The topic of color blindness felt really half-assed. I feel like we only got 1 hint about it when they were talking about space in chapter 2 (I think) and then Nagisa just completely forgot that it was a topic of discussion until chapter 6 where it felt like it was so forced and rushed because she just remembered that was the point. So that bit actually pissed me off... a lot.
