He's too precious I can't handle this

 

[zdarkbrz_816]

kawaii

 

[Kiriha]

He's pretty much "make a girl character but draw her as a guy instead".

It is over 9000.

 

[Ank]

oh, Umehara san...

 

[Simkin]

Whenever I read this there's this little voice in my head telling me that this boy would get torn apart in our society.

Thank god he's just an adorable manga character...

 

[psychicmurasaki]

please... invite Daigo to your house... let mom meet him

 

[EvelynIsGone]

ok but that's clearly zipped into the pocket, not sewed into it

 

[Thrembs]

@EvelynIsGone

It's accurately translated.
It's probably sewn inside, but zipped to be cute.

 

[Thrembs]

@Simkin Where are you located? It's not exactly easy for queers in the US, but it's getting easier.
Japan... not so easy. Getting better fast, but rights aren't great nationally. Certain cities have LGBT rights.
I'm probably being way too pedantic, but I wasn't sure which society.

 

[Thrembs]

@Kiriha
Huh? He's just a kid.
I see nothing girly about wanting a gift from your crush to not be lost. Or being shy about accidentally letting it slip.
He uses notably masculine speech in Japanese.

You want him to be an emotionless thug or something?

 

[BasilD]

Ah back in the youth of Daigo Umehara, he knew his classmate very well

 

[Sealight]

Show us daigo @author

 

[BCS]

The title of this manga should be "My son is 100% gay"

 

[Fari]

@Kiriha Nothing about him has been explicitly feminine, he just gets flustered easily. You can be in touch with your emotions and still be a man.

~Something wholesome this way comes
doo da Doo da~

 

[AZ09XO]

Our big boi has the big gay

@Thrembs

I'm talking about Western and Japanse society. True, "getting torn apart" is a bit hyperbolic, but anything LGBT is still very much frowned upon in Japan. And a sweet boy like him, with his 'carelessness', would be a very easy target in any highschool and his life be made a living hell. He doesn't deserve that, nobody deserves that, but I think it's still very much a reality for people with such a background.
