Yeah I loved the art for the series, really loved it. I appreciate the scan/translations and don't regret reading it. However the story and character just felt...kind of like there could have been more to them? More to their relationship. It just kind of doesn't really go anywhere and is instead awkward the whole time, it even ends with them still in an awkward relationship.
Notably I LOVE slice of life, I enjoy slow burn works, but often there feels like some bit of character progress in slice of life series. The characters learn new things, try new things, expand their relationships, so fourth. For me there iis usually meaning and progress in slice of life, even if it's mundane. Here it felt like the progress was kind of almost non existent, outside of them at the end getting jobs in similar fields as adults. Their relationship has this weird stagnant gap that feels very strange, and even without them becoming lovers I feel that their friendship...doesn't really work? Kind of but not really. It's a very strange feeling.
