Blue Sky Complex can literally be translated to Peace Fixation or some sort related to it. It is about two bored boys with different personalities; one who looks like a deliquent and would jump at any on-going fights but in reality is a peace seeker, and another who is timid and quiet and clearly demands calming surroundings–with circumstances leading them to each other's peaceful arms.

DID YOU HEAR THAT SOUND? LIKE A MARCHING BAND READY TO GO ROCK AND ROLL RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW? YUP, THAT'S MY HEART RIGHT NOW. This manga is sooo adorable, LIKE I SWEAR TO GEE!! I DON'T KNOW WHY I PUT THIS ONE ON HOLD FOR LIKE A LONG TIME. SOMEONE LITERALLY RECOMMENDED THIS TO ME—AND I'M JUST READING IT NOW, I'M SORRY.

ANYWAY, THIS WAS DEFINITELY NOT THE PLOT I HAD IN MIND. It gave out the Caste Heaven vibes to me, and that was the time I was traumatized by the said series. So, carrying my broken and beaten heart, I saved myself from the anticipated "yet another heartbreak." But, oh no!! This definitely did not take the dark path. Just because there appeared a bruised character in the start of the story—I completely misjudged Natsuki. He's a cutie fluffball, I swear!! I love just how innocent no matter how rough he looked like, the little gay that he is.

My takeaway would be this hilarious realization:

Shin: Wait, this is glass boy, right? Wasn't he straight?
Natsuki: Yea
Shin: But he was cool with your sexuality before that? Huh?
Natsuki: What? I dunno!
Shin: *It was right this moment that he knew he's talking to an idiot* What? Wait... you confessed to him, right?
Natsuki: I toldja! I stuck my tongue in his—
Shin: No, I got that part, but... huh?
Natsuki: ....what?


This was so out of the context, I know, but get in there and you'll laugh hard too!!

And also, this one that made me soft:


Narasaki: ...Are okay with the fact that I'm a guy?
Terashima: Yeah. I didn't really give that part much thought.
Narasaki: For real? Isn't that normally the super important part? Terashima: What about you? I've always been gay so...
Narasaki: Oh, really? Fair enough.
Terashima: You're just gonna coast right over that, huh? My confession of a lifetime.
Narasaki: Because for me, you're more important than what gender you are or whatever.


Overall, I'm in love with this. It took me by surprise when I was heading to clichéville. And the whole library moments from the first one up to the last. That was my favorite!!

I might finish a few more volumes tonight!! Sleep? What sleep?!
