I saw this cover and I had high hopes for this story. Another sweet love story. This isn't Japanese. It's written by people from possibly Germany or somewhere up in Europe. I wasn't aware that Europe was writing Boys Love Manga. I guess the whole world is into it now.
The beginning of the story happens super fast. Our main character is a slacker and boom, he's being broken up with. Then, boom, his love shows up and that's that. It's fine, it does happen in life like that to some people, especially in high school. How lucky for them. anyway. I think they should have just started the story after the breakup. That would have been background info. There really wasn't any need to see that.
The artwork is lovely and I love that the interest in the story is star gazing. It's so romantic on its own. I can't wait for the second volume. I hope we get to see more of this budding relationship.
