Twilight Out of Focus 1
by Jyanome
3.5 ⭐️
Saw everyone on twitter saying "close enough... WELCOME BACK ASH AND EIJI!!" in reference to this anime coming out soon, so as an avid Banana Fish enthusiast (it ruined my life), it was only right that I read + watched this. The visual resemblance to our boys is almost uncanny, so imagine my shock when I found out the black-haired lead is a film club student... basically photographer Eiji, while the blond is a good kid viewed as more of a delinquent, and has been taken advantage of by adults...like poor Ash.
In all seriousness though, this was a short and unexpectedly sweet romance. I'm torn between a high rating for the stunning art and likeable protagonists, versus a lower rating because things moved much too quickly for my personal liking. I'm certain this manga would have strongly benefitted from even two more chapters, just to pace things out and give the protagonists more chance to pine before falling straight into a loving relationship. Still, I did really enjoy what I read, I just wanted more! Very excited to see how the anime will pace things out, potentially giving these two a more drawn-out story. They deserve it!
