i can't believe some people think that this isn't Bl or when it's marketed as such... there's no straight justification for the amount of times yoshiki has blushed over hikaru and it's even not even the real one. there's already a lot of lore in the story and i'm excited to see how the mangaka will illustrate it for us. this is cozy horror in a smalltown japanese countryside. it reminds me so much of the anime another.. 8.5/10.
