Overall opinion: It’s a bit odd, compared to what I’ve read so far. But it is enjoyable, I do wanna continue the series. The relationship is intriguing, and there are cool side characters. But I’m still not sure what type of relationship it’s supposed to be. I'm pretty sure it's meant to be a slowburn romance, but it feels a bit weird, becuase the main character is an adult and the love interest is like 14 at the start. When the first light flirting happens, he's 17 I think, and by the time it would turn into anything real he'll be an adult, but it still feels weird. And the art is nice.
