Damn I was waiting for this chapter! And its the last one too ๐ญ now you're making me emotional Koi I don't wanna bid Makoto and Kimiko farewell ๐ญ wait before I start let me say this:
HE SAIDDD ITTT LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Okay now weโve calmed down a bit, got it out of our system. *clears throat*
First of all, since this is the last chapter, I'm gonna leave my opinion as a whole here:
First of all, I really liked the special bits of this story, like the how the dating agency works, and that really cool plot point of having them stay together. Also, I personally don't like love triangles (I relate to one of the two candidates and basically get jealous of the other ๐ stupid I know) but I have to say this was done right. Even Daichi, who appeared as a stuck up filthy rich kid, had a side to him that I could sympathize with and that goes a long way for me as a reader. But of course we're #TeamMakoto (the official team as of todayโs chapter ๐คฉ๐คฉ๐คฉ)
Speaking of Makoto, his character development, and the way he realised little by little, how important Kimiko is to him and finally mustered the courage to break away from his chains and confess, felt really humane. And I also believe that if they had to leave the apartment earlier, he would still confess the very last day, because his feelings have been there for quite a while. And when youโre on the verge of losing something, thatโs when you truly appreciate it.
Last up we have Kimiko, a very solid, cheerful protagonist, with great depth, and not just a damsel in distress. During the latest chapters, she seemed to be the one with the most developed character, standing up to Daichi etc, so I feel like sheโs more than just your typical bubbly girl. Like I said, I need a Kimiko ngl ๐ youโve yet to open that store ๐ญ
The rest of the cast was memorable too, like The Makoto Twin, Tatsuya, who I love ๐
and Kimikoโs friend who sadly got no more screen time ๐ญ or page time
Thatโs for the pros, as for the cons ๐ค honestly Iโm not one to call out flaws. While I am particular in what I read, what I DO read I always enjoy. Your writing is great, it has a solid flow and every chapter flies by. The way you describe things feels natural and spot on 100% of the times. Your characters are humane and realistic while they also do have that creativity and that wholesomeness.
All in all, this story was a great reading experience and itโs something that will stay with me ๐ not too complex easy to digest funny and wholesome story! Just how I like it!
To end this rather lengthy review/ranting Iโd like to say congratulations for finishing the story and good job Koi! ๐ I hope your dream of being published actually becomes true ๐ Iโll be here for it and I hope you write again soon! See you when itโs timeโฆ till then take care! โค๏ธ
