Feels like one of the rare stories where I'd be okay with 100 chapters of just this and no progress. They already seem undramatically gay and ok with it, lol.
growing up isnt the problem. Its societies preconceived notions of what growing up entails.
my fav quote in that regard:
“To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grownup because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence…but to carry on into …early adulthood a concern about being adult is really a mark of arrested development. When I was 10 I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so now that i am fifty I read them openly. When I became a adult I put away childish things; including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”
I'm not sure what to expect from this really - on the one hand, the setup seems to be designed for just one-off chill chapters with minimal drama, but on the other hand, Tsukiko-sensei loves messy drama, and it is still early days.
I'm mostly just really glad to see her serialized, though.
This is adorable and I love that they're both awkward dorks in their own way. Usually teenagers in fiction are just written as tiny adults and the fact that one of them is obsessed with being trendy and the other one is trying sooo hard to seem cool and edgy is cute and relatable.
