do you ever feel like crying bc uzurin is just 2 beautiful

I always appreciate a good leg flail. Thanks for this it was some pretty cute Uzurin.

I don't want to rain on anybody's parade, but what is up with this "My heart is beating fast, therefore I am in love with this person" trope? There are far more explanations for heightened pulse than just love, and often the character saying this doesn't even know anything about the person they're supposed to be love with except how they look. It seems like an immature and overdramatic mindset.

Yeah, that kind of skeeviness reminds of the "welp, you got a boner so we have to have sex, since that's the only way to get rid of it" trope that crops up oh so often in sexual fiction.

But that's what it is, a cheap and easy literary device. It can be hard to compose a narrative with compelling, believable reasons to fall in love/have sex, and sometimes readers don't mind and are okay with an expedient love/sex story.

So cute

okay but Rin is like. 15. im pretty sure when we were 15 we fell for people for the dumbest reasons. the best uzurin is the stuff that focuses on this teenage sense of thirst and insecurity tbqh

Lol, they're in hs right? Soo love is far simpler when your young or when love is first starting out, not to mention its an easy way to narrate it...but yeah initially if thoughts of someone gets you excited and your heart beating there's an attraction...

Anyway! Was this not the cutest ^_^
I love the angsty narrative and then her just going for it under the covers!

It was almost great, maybe the art held it back a bit.

I agree, but you got to take into account how young both of them are, I'm pretty sure I had this mindset from middle school/ beginning of high school

This xD

Really, it's just a convention of (Japanese) romance stories— a quick bit of shorthand that everybody is familiar with, so the author can get on with the story without spending pages on exploring the physical and psychological effects of attraction and the process of young love. You might as well complain about umbrellas.

2021 and this gem still makes my heart skip a beat.
